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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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.

    12. Receipt of Evusheld prophylaxis against Covid19.
    Qualsiasi nuovo paziente con un HCL non trattato deve essere sottoposto allo screening di eligibilità al protocollo, e deve essere arruolato nello studio se soddisfa tutti i seguenti criteri generali di idoneità n. 1-8 (e non soddisfa alcuno dei criteri di esclusione—vedasi prossima sezione):

    1. Pazienti precedentemente non trattati con diagnosi di HCL confermata centralmente
    2. Necessità di trattamento, ossia almeno uno dei seguenti criteri: neutrofili <1x109 per litro, emoglobina <10 g per decilitro, piastrine <100x109 per litro, splenomegalia ingombrante/sintomatica, infiltrazione clinicamente rilevante di altri organi (ad esempio linfoadenopatia), infezioni opportunistiche o malattie autoimmuni correlate alla malattia.
    3. ECOG Performance Status di 0-2
    4. Pazienti di sesso maschile o femminile con =18 anni
    5. Per le donne non in menopausa, test di gravidanza negativo nei 14 giorni prima l’inizio della terapia in studio
    6. Per le donne in età fertile, uso obbligatorio di efficaci contraccettivi durante il trattamento in studio e per almeno 6 mesi dopo la sua fine.
    7. Nessuna condizione medica, psicologica, familiare, sociologica o geografica che possa compromettere l’adempimento alle regole del protocollo di studio e alle tempistiche del follow-up, o interferire con l’interpretazione dei risultati dello studio o che possano comunque rendere il paziente inadeguato alla sua partecipazione allo studio.
    8. Consenso informato firmato prima dell’esecuzione qualsiasi procedura collegata allo studio.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    There are two independent primary endpoints, one for efficacy and one for safety.

    Primary efficacy endpoint: rate of complete remission (CR) at ~6 months after treatment initiation in randomized patients, as centrally adjudicated by a blinded external independent committee (including bone marrow biopsy). CR requires the normalization of blood counts, absence of palpable splenomegaly, and absence of hairy cells visible in the bone marrow biopsy at hematoxylin and eosin staining.

    Primary safety endpoint: proportion of randomized patients experiencing =1 drug-related toxicity of maximum grade =3 according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0 that occurs within 6 months from starting treatment as reported by the investigators, and that is at least possibly related to the study drugs as centrally adjudicated by another member of the external independent committee (blinded to response to treatment but not to treatment assignments).
    Any types of grade =3 toxicity will be considered for the primary safety endpoint, and a non-exhaustive list of main grade =3 toxicities reported with CDAR and/or VR is provided.
    Endpoint primario di efficacia: tasso di remissione completa (CR) a ~6 mesi dall’inizio del trattamento nei pazienti randomizzati, quale aggiudicata centralmente in cieco (biopsia osteomidollare inclusa) da un comitato indipendente esterno. La CR richiede la normalizzazione delle conte ematiche, l’assenza di splenomegalia palpabile e l’assenza di cellule leucemiche visibili nella biopsia osteo-midollare alla colorazione con ematossilina ed eosina.

    Endpoint primario di sicurezza: percentuale di pazienti randomizzati che sperimentano almeno una tossicità da farmaco di massimo grado =3 (secondo i Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events/CTCAE - versione 5.0), la quale si verifichi entro i 6 mesi dall’inizio del trattamento come riportato dagli sperimentatori e risulti almeno possibilmente dovuta ai farmaci in studio come centralmente aggiudicato da un altro membro del comitato indipendente esterno (in cieco rispetto alla risposta al trattamento ma non al trattamento assegnato).
    Ogni tipo di tossicità al grado =3 sarà presa in considerazione per l’endpoint primario di sicurezza e viene fornita una lista non esaustiva delle principali tossicità di grado =3 riscontrate con CDAR e/o VR.
