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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Patient or the patient’s legal guardian(s) is willing and able to provide written informed consent before study initiation
    2. Patient is ≥18 years of age
    3. Patient carries a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of a malignant solid tumor of a type included within this study (see inclusion criterion 4 below) with at least 1 accessible lesion for biopsy
    4. All patients must have advanced solid malignancies as specified below:
    a. Cohort 1 (TME): cutaneous melanoma, RCC, TNBC, MSS colorectal cancer, MSI-H solid tumors (NOS), or ovarian cancer
    If the microsatellite stability status of a given patient’s malignancy is unknown at the time of Screening, such patient may enroll in a non–MSI-H open cohort for which they are eligible. If such patient subsequently demonstrates MSI-H status, the Investigator may transfer the patient to the MSI-H cohort, if there is an open slot, thereby potentially opening a slot in the patient’s original cohort.
    b. Cohort 2 (less frequent IV dosing): histologically or cytologically confirmed epithelial tumor of the fallopian tube, peritoneum, or ovaries, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, non–small cell lung adenocarcinoma, small cell lung cancer, gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, esophageal cancer (squamous and adeno cell type), pancreatic cancer, biliary tract tumor (including intra- and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, gall bladder, ampullary type), cutaneous melanoma, mucosal melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, or metastatic or advanced breast cancer.
    Patients in Cohort 2 must have received 1 to 3 approved indication-specific prior therapies and have progressed or developed intolerance to them.
    Note: Prior FDA-approved therapies may include chemotherapy and/or approved molecularly targeted therapy depending on the tumor type.
    Failure of adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy is considered 1 line of treatment provided that the patient progressed within 6 months of completing the therapy.
    5. All patients must agree to have the MSI status of his/her malignancy evaluated using his/her baseline biopsy
    6. All patients’ baseline biopsies must be taken no more than 3 months before Screening
    7. Patients must have at least 1 lesion that qualifies as a target lesion on the basis of the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v)1.1, as determined by the treating physician, and not confounded by prior treatment such as radiation. A lesion will not qualify to be a target lesion if it has been previously irradiated. Patients must be able to provide adequate tissue samples for the planned biopsies, which will not affect measurement of tumor size per RECIST v1.1 criteria.
    8. Patients must be ambulatory with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0 or 1 and an estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months
    9. Patients must have adequate hematologic reserve, as evidenced by:
    • Absolute neutrophil count of ≥1000/μL
    • Absolute lymphocyte count of ≥500/μL within 2 weeks of starting investigational product(s)
    • Platelet count of ≥75,000/μL without platelet transfusion support within 2 weeks of starting investigational product(s)
    • Hemoglobin of ≥9 g/dL (patients may be transfused to this level, if necessary)
    10. Patients must have adequate hepatic and renal function, as evidenced by:
    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) values ≤3 × the upper limit of normal (ULN; ≤5 × the ULN if the liver is known to be involved by metastatic disease)
    • Serum total bilirubin values of ≤1.5 × the ULN (≤2 × ULN for patients with known Gilbert’s syndrome)
    • Serum creatinine ≤1.5 × the ULN for the reference laboratory or a calculated creatinine clearance of ≥60 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault equation
    11. For Cohort 1 (TME) and Part A of Cohort 2 (less frequent IV dosing), treatment with prior immunotherapy is permitted unless the patient has previously experienced Grade ≥3 autoimmune toxicity or drug-related toxicity requiring discontinuation. Patients in Part B of Cohort 2 (less frequent IV dosing) who received prior anti–PD-(L)1 for at least 3 months may enroll if they had a response of stable disease or better.

Si dicho paciente demuestra posteriormente su estado MSI-H, el investigador podrá transferirlo a la cohorte MSI-H, si hay una plaza libre, con lo que podría abrirse una plaza en la cohorte original del paciente.

Una lesión no se considerará lesión diana si ha sido irradiada previamente. Los pacientes deben poder proporcionar muestras de tejido adecuadas para las biopsias previstas, que no afectarán a la medición del tamaño del tumor según los criterios RECIST v1.1.
    8. 8. Los pacientes deben ser ambulatorios, tener un estado de rendimiento del Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG PS) de 0 ó 1 y una esperanza de vida estimada de al menos 3 meses.
