Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    6. A tumor block or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue from tumor biopsies as 10 pre-cut unstained slides must be collected for the HER2 status evaluation and biomarker analysis based on most recent tumor tissue sample. If insufficient tissue, a fresh tumor biopsy must be collected. All tumor tissue (including the pathology report and methods of pathology laboratory's tissue preparation/testing) needs to be sourced for central laboratory for HER2 testing.
    7. Central laboratory-confirmed HER2-positive expression (estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor positive subjects may be enrolled if they are HER2-positive) according to 2018 American Society of Clinical Oncology – College of American Pathologists (ASCO-CAP) guidelines. See Laboratory Manual for details.
    8. Subjects whose brain metastases have been treated may participate provided they show radiographic stability (defined as 1 brain MR image, obtained at least four weeks after treatment to the brain metastases, shows no evidence of intracranial progression). In addition, any neurologic symptoms (including seizures) that developed either as a result of the brain metastases or their treatment must have returned to baseline or resolved. Any steroids administered as part of this therapy must be completed at least three days prior to study medication. After approximately 20 such subjects [20% of the first 100 subjects] have been enrolled, subsequent subjects with any current or past history of brain metastases will be excluded.
    9. Acute toxicities from any prior therapy, surgery, or radiotherapy must have resolved to Grade 0 or 1 as per the NCI-CTCAE v 5.0, except alopecia.
    10. Adequate bone marrow function defined by absolute neutrophil count of ≥ 1.5×109/L, platelet count of ≥ 100.0×109/L, and hemoglobin of ≥ 9.0 g/dL.
    11. Adequate hepatic function, as defined by serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase ≤ 2.5 × ULN. Subjects with known hepatic metastases or primary biliary cancer may have serum total bilirubin ≤ 3.5 × ULN and transaminases ≤ 5 × ULN.
    12. Adequate renal function, defined as creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min, as calculated using the Cockcroft Gault equation: ([{140 -age in years} × {actual weight in kg}] divided by [{72 × serum creatinine in mg/dL}
    multiplied by 0.85 if female]).
    13. Adequate cardiac function as assessed by left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 50% or institutional lower limit of normal; cumulative anthracycline dose < 360 mg/m2 doxorubicin or equivalent.
    14. Willing and able to understand and sign an informed consent inform and to comply with all aspects of the protocol.
    15. Male and female subjects of reproductive/childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective form of contraception or avoid intercourse during and upon completion of the study and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study drug.
    16. Male subjects must not freeze or donate sperm starting at Screening and throughout the study period, and at least 6 months after the final study drug administration.
    17. Female subjects must not donate, or retrieve for their own use, ova from the time of Screening and throughout the study treatment period, and for at least 6 months after the final study drug administration.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. History of allergic reactions to any component of ARX788.
    2. Prior history of interstitial lung disease, pneumonitis, or other clinically significant lung disease within 12 months prior to screening, with the exception of that directly attributable to the presence of lung metastases from their underlying cancer. Subjects with significant treatment-related lung injury, defined as any of the following, will be excluded:
    a) Any prior history of drug-induced immune-mediated pneumonitis.
    b) Prior history of radiation therapy to the chest of > 18 Gy with residual sequelae considered clinically significant by Investigator assessment.
    c) Radiographic evidence of radiation fibrosis involving > 15% of the lung parenchyma associated with clinical symptoms.
    3. Any active ocular infections until resolved or any chronic corneal disorder unless approved by Medical Monitor. Keratopathy of grade ≤1 due to prior treatment with anti-HER2 ADC or chemotherapy are allowed.
    4. History of congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, unstable atrial fibrillation, or cardiac arrhythmia within 12 months prior to enrollment. Medical history of myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to enrollment. Baseline QTc, averaged over 3 screening ECGs must be ≤ 470 msec (females) or ≤ 450 msec (males).
    5. Grade 3 to 4 peripheral neuropathy (NCI-CTCAE v 5.0). Patients with Grade 2 neuropathy can be enrolled at investigator’s discretion.
