The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing the availability of a final guidance for industry entitled “Considerations for the Use of Real-World Data and Real-World Evidence to Support Regulatory Decision-Making for Drug and Biological Products.” FDA is issuing this guidance as part of its Real-World Evidence (RWE) Program for drugs and to satisfy, in part, the mandate under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) to issue guidance about the use of RWE in regulatory decision making.

This guidance discusses the applicability of FDA’s investigational new drug application (IND) regulations to various clinical study designs that utilize real-world data (RWD) and clarifies the Agency’s expectations regarding clinical studies using RWD submitted to FDA in support of a regulatory decision regarding the effectiveness or safety of a drug that are not subject to the IND regulations.

This guidance finalizes the draft guidance of the same title issued on December 9, 2021.

ICH E6(R3) Good Clinical Practice guidance - Step 2 Public Consultation

Date first published: 23 May 2023

Date revised: 14 June 2023

As announced by M Khair ElZarrad (PhD, MPH, Director, Office of Medical Policy - Center for Drug Evaluation and Research at FDA), on May 22, 2023, ICH-E6(R3): An Important Global Good Clinical Practice Standards draft soon becomes available for public input of the field stakeholders.

Since 2016, the year of finalization of the ICH E6(R2) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guideline, the clinical research field faced advances in technology that came along with rising complexity of trials, and global challenges. Reasonably, the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Expert Working Group for ICH E6(R3) was created to address the growing gaps between the existing regulations and real-world processes, such as growing variety of study types and data sources, as well as quality concerns.

Bregnhøj, L., Sweeney, F., d the ICH EWG (2020) summarised the scope of the ongoing work on the fundamental E6(R3) amendment, with its overarching principles laid in the Annex 1 and 2, the Glossary, and in the 3 Appendices, that will replace the current E6(R2), as listed below:

Purpose of E6(R3) guideline revision:

  • Developing a responsive GCP guideline
  • Providing flexibility to:
    • Acknowledge the diversity of trial designs, data sources, and the different contexts in which clinical trials can be conducted.
    • Highlight that GCP principles can be satisfied in a variety of ways.

Revision of the E6(R3) includes the following:

  • To rewrite and rearrange the following parts of the ICH-E6(R2) guideline:
    • Principles and Annexes: Annex 1 – GCP for interventional clinical trials (principles related to the use of approved/unapproved drugs in a controlled setting with prospective allocation of treatment to participants and collection of trial data) and Annex 2 – additional considerations for non-traditional interventional clinical trials (principles as they relate to the use of non-traditional clinical trial designs such as pragmatic CTs, as well as trials that incorporate real world data sources).
    • Align with the E8 guideline, as appropriate.
    • Bridge the known gaps within the E6 guideline and other relevant ICH guidelines.
  • Clear and concise scope:
    •  Expectations should be fit for purpose.
  • Focus on key concepts:
    • Quality by design and Risk-based approach
    • Proportionality
    • Critical to Quality factors, etc.

The MHRA (a full member of ICH since May 2022) experts are welcoming feedback of the UK stakeholders that will be collected through the Agency’s website (Fisher, A. and Wakelin-Smith, J., 2023). Clinical Research specialists from other countries will be able to provide their comments on the ICH website.  

The Step 4 (Adoption of Technical Document: Principles and Annex 1) is planned in August 2023 (ICH E6(R3) EWG Work Plan, 2022).

The ICH E6 (R3) draft version is available online here.

The study of the new investigational drug for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome https://ichgcp.net/news/the-study-of-the-new-investigational-drug-for-acute-myeloid-leukemia-and-myelodysplastic-syndrome PureTech is recruiting patients for the clinical trial of LYT-200 in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML), or with relapsed/refractory, high-risk myelodysplastic sy...

PureTech is recruiting patients for the clinical trial of LYT-200 in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML), or with relapsed/refractory, high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

In Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), immature blood cells are overproduced, leading to less mature blood cells.  This causes anaemia, with underlying increased risk for infection and bleeding (MD Anderson Cancer Center, 2023).  Chemotherapy, radiation and/or autologous treatments are among possible causes of MDS or AML in up to 10% of patients.

No available therapies can currently cure most of patients suffering from MDS and AML, which calls for urgent development of new medicines.

This  open-label, non-randomized, multi-center, phase 1, dose escalation study includes patients with AML relapsed/refractory to at least one line of prior therapy, with or without an allogeneic stem cell transplant, or in patients with a documented diagnosis of relapsed/refractory, high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) post at least one line of treatment and for whom no standard therapy that may provide clinical benefit is available. 

The study commenced on December 12, 2022. The indicative completion of the clinical trial will be expected on May 1, 2025.

Among primary outcome measures are the Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and RP2D determination] and Evaluation of safety parameters including treatment emergent adverse events as detected by hematology, chemistry, coagulation safety labs, physical exams, vital signs, ECG, ECHO/MUGA, ECOG status.

The study will take place at several research sites in the United States: Baptist Health South Florida-Miami Cancer Institute, Miami; Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles; University of California Irvine Medical Center, Orange.

Among the inclusion criteria are

1. Patient has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2,

2. Patients are able and willing to comply with study procedures as per protocol, including bone marrowbiopsies,

3. Patients with a documented diagnosis of high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), whose disease is relapsed/refractory, post at least one line of treatment based on the revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) and for whom no standard therapy that may provide clinical benefit is available and

4. Patients with morphologically documented primary or secondary AML by the World Health Organization(WHO) criteria, whose disease is relapsed/refractory to at least one line of prior therapy, with or without an allogeneic stem cell transplant and for whom no standard therapy that may provide clinical benefit is available or for patients who decline available standard of care can be enrolled into this research.

Cancer Research UK in collaboration with University of Manchester, University of Birmingham, Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, and Hoffmann-La Roche are commencing recruitment into the clinical trial that is looking at a drug called entrectinib. The researchers plan that the study duration will be from April 2023 till October 2029.

Entrectinib is approved as standard of care treatment for adult patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) which have a particular molecular alteration called ROS1-positive, and patients 12 years of age or older with solid tumours which have another type of change in the cancer cells.

This means it has gone through clinical trials and been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the UK. Investigators now wish to find out if it will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which have the same molecular alteration (ROS1-positive).

If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.

The study will take place at the several research sites around in the UK:

  • Belfast City Hospital, Belfast, United Kingdom;
  • University Hospital Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom;
  • Birmingham Children's Hospital, Birmingham, United Kingdom;
  • Bristol Royal Hospital for Children, Bristol, United Kingdom;
  • Bristol Haematology and Oncology Centre, Bristol, United Kingdom;

The company Northwell Health is enrolling patients into the clinical trial investigating Changes in Penile Firmness With Low-Intensity Shockwave Therapy (LiST).

Patients presenting with erectile dysfunction are often found to have increased corporal firmness on elastography. We hypothesize that this corporal firmness reflects reversable changes that can be altered by Low-Intensity Shockwave Therapy (LiST). In this pilot study patients found to have increased corporal firmness will be treated with LiST.

The study is being done to find out if low-intensity shockwave therapy can improve penile blood flow and restore sexual function in men with impaired erectile function.

The trial is designed to enroll Male 18 Years to 64 Years and is being conducted in the Dr. Gilbert's Office, Great Neck, New York, United States; The Smith Institute for Urology, Lake Success, New York, United States.

The study start date is March 5, 2023.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Provision of signed and dated informed consent form 2. Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study 3. Men aged 18-64 4. Sexually active men and evidence of increased firmness on elastography during their standard evaluation for erectile dysfunction.

Exclusion Criteria: 1. Within two weeks of Visit 1 using erectogenic medications including PDE5 inhibitors and/or penile injection therapy 2. Presence of a penile implant. 3. Presence of cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator 4. Patients who are using devices which are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation. 5. Screening ultrasound positive for testicular cancer 6. Presence of untreated prostate cancer 7. Patients with severe coagulation disorders 8. Patient that in the opinion of the Principal Investigator would be non-compliant with the study

National Cancer Center Hospital East is starting a new clinical trial of Total Neoadjuvant Therapy of SCRT+CAPOX vs SCRT+CAPOXIRI for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (ENSEMBLE).

This trial is a multicenter randomized Phase III study to verify the superiority of short-course preoperative radiation (SCRT) and CAPOXIRI over SCRT and CAPOX as preoperative treatments for locally advanced rectal cancer.

Total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) has the promise, which means non-operative management (NOM) enable more patients (pts) with a complete clinical response (cCR) or near-complete clinical responses (nCR) after TNT to avoid subsequent radical surgery, with potentially maintaining anorectal function and quality of life (QoL).

The aim of this randomized phase III trial is to test superiority of consolidation irinotecan, capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOXIRI) vs. capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOX) following SCRT as TNT in pts with LARC. Pts in both groups will be re-staged after completing TNT before radical surgery according to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Regression Schema; pts with incomplete response (iCR) will undergo total mesorectal excision (TME), cCR pts will receive NOM, and nCR pts will undergo TME or NOM by a physician discretion under the recommendation of blind assessment by the designated NOM central committee. Pts will be followed by CT, MRI, colonoscopy and liquid biopsy every 4 months for 2 years, and every 6 months thereafter up to 5 years. To detect a decrease in 3-year cumulative probability of organ preservation-adapted Disease free survival (DFS) from 75.0% to 81.7%, corresponding to a target hazard ratio of 0·70, a total of 608 pts (196 events) would achieve 70% power at a two-sided α significance level of 0.05.

The clinical trial started in November 21, 2022 and will continue throughout December 31, 2030.

Danish Headache Center is recruiting patients for the clinical trial of Migraine Induction Properties of PACAP-38 After Eptinezumab in Migraine Without Aura Patients.

To investigate whether administration of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) binding monoclonal antibodies eptinezumab prevents pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP-38) induced migraine attacks in migraine without aura patients.

The aim of the present study is to investigate whether - CGRP binding monoclonal antibodies eptinezumab prevents PACAP-38 induced migraine attacks in migraine without aura patients. Clinical and basic research have established calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) as central molecule in migraine pathophysiology, yet existing CGRP antagonizing therapies such as the CGRP and CGRP receptor binding monoclonal antibodies are only effective in 50-60% of migraine patients. PACAP-38 and CGRP colocalize in the trigeminovascular system, and both activate adenylate cyclase upon receptor binding which causes increased formation of cyclic AMP (cAMP). It is unknown if CGRP and PACAP-38 signaling pathways differ sufficiently for PACAP-38 to be an alternative treatment target to CGRP. Whether administration of CGRP binding monoclonal antibodies eptinezumab prevents PACAP-38 induced migraine attacks in migraine without aura patients is yet to be investigated.

The study starts in December 2022 at the Danish headache center, Glostrup, Denmark. The indicative completion of the clinical trial will be expected in July 30, 2023.

The following population may be enrolled into this study: healthy volunteers of both sexes from 18 to 60 years, of 50 to 100 kg, with the history of migraine without aura for ≥ 12 months according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd Edition (ICHD-3) criteria and with no migraine preventive treatment. Women of childbearing potential must use adequate contraception.

Excluded will be those havong a history of serious somatic disease; having more than 50 years of age at migraine onset; history of any other primary headaches disorder (except ≤ 5 monthly days with tension- type headache); with daily intake of any medication except contraceptives can be enrolled into this research.

University of Kansas Medical Center is starting a new clinical trial of Itraconazole to Prevent Recurrent Barrett's Esophagus.

Recurrent Barrett's esophagus (BE) that occurs at the rate of 12.4%/year is the Achilles heel of the endoscopic treatment of high-risk BE. Over time, after eradication, BE ultimately recurs in as many as 30-50% of the patients putting them at risk for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), thereby undoing the benefits of an effective initial therapy.

Also, recurrences need retreatments that increase costs and complications including strictures and refractory ulcerations. A therapy to prevent recurrent BE does not currently exist. Itraconazole with its ability to inhibit important molecular pathways related to BE development could enhance the long-term effectiveness of endoscopic eradication of high-risk BE, thereby promoting a long-term cure

The clinical trial started on September 14, 2022 and will continue throughout December 2023.

Itraconazole drug and blood levels will be primary outcome measure. The primary endpoint will be the tissue (in esophageal biopsies) and blood concentrations of itraconazole.

Participants must have Barrett's esophagus with either confirmed low-grade dysplasia or high grade dysplasia or intramucosal/T1 adenocarcinoma (see histologic review) being considered for endoscopic treatment. Besides, patients must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2.

Excluded from participation are any patients who are unable to provide informed consent, those with: New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure (CHF), liver function tests (LFT)>3X upper limit of normal, drug allergy to itraconazole, pregnancy, prolonged QTc (>450 ms for men and QTc>470 ms for women) or critical drug interactions with other medications metabolized by cytochrome P450(CYP)3A4.

The contacts and locations are the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas, United States. For more details: https://ichgcp.net/clinical-trials-registry/NCT05609253.

The company University of California, Davis is enrolling patients into the clinical trial investigating Chardonnay Marc and Vascular Response.

This study aims to obtain data on the potential influence of Vine to Bar product(s) containing Chardonnay marc on cardiometabolic health. These initial studies will inform the design and timing of data collection for future dietary intervention trials that will examine the influence of Chardonnay marc intake on outcomes/biomarkers of both cardiometabolic health and the gut microbiome. This includes collecting data on the potential differences in response to the products based on the unique food matrix for each of the products that will be tested. Moreover, as there is a paucity of data on the influence of cocoa flavanol intake on vascular function beyond 4 hours post intake, the response of the selected outcomes will be assessed after 6 hours of flavanol intake. This is a time point that captures the increased circulating presence of microbial derived flavanol metabolites.

The trial is designed to enroll Male 30 Years to 50 Years and is being conducted in the Academic Surge, University of California, Davis, California, United States.

The patients that can be enrolled into this study include those having at screening or Visit 1 Reactive Hyperemia Index (RHI; EndoPAT 2000)  < 2.0; willing and able to comply with the study protocols; willing to participate in all study procedures, and having BMI 25.0 - 35 kg/m2.

Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom, is conducting the clinical trial Immediate and Residual Effects of Functional Chewing Gum on Concentration.

Previous research suggests that chewing gum may influence several functions including attention and alertness. Gum can also be used as a vehicle for delivering ingredients that have the ability to modulate attention and mood.

This study will explore the effects of a functional gum containing a proprietary composition of a herbal extract and vitamins. These effects will be compared to the effects of a basic sugar-free gum and to a tablet which will include the same ingredients as the basic sugar-free gum. Effects will be explored on computerised measures of attention/concentration and via ratings of current mood. The study will assess the immediate effects of chewing gum as well as the effects 1 hour later. There will be an initial remote screening session followed by visits to the laboratory on 4 separate occasions: an introductory/training visit and three active study days.

It is planned to include 40 participants. The researchers expect to complete the study by January 4, 2023.

One primary outcome measure is Simple Reaction Time, Cognitive Function - attention.

Participants must self-assess themselves as being in good health and be 18 to 35 years at the time of giving consent, with chewing ability and proficient in English.  They cannot participate if have any pre-existing medical condition/illness which will impact taking part in the study.

National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is starting a new clinical trial of Defining Neurobiological Links Between Substance Use and Mental Illness. The clinical trial starts on September 21, 2022 and will continue throughout December, 2027.

Nicotine dependence leads to about 480,000 deaths every year in the United States. People with major depressive disorder (MDD) are twice as likely to use nicotine compared to the general population. They have greater withdrawal symptoms and are more likely to relapse after quitting compared with smokers without MDD. More research is needed on how nicotine affects brain function in those with MDD.

Objective of the present study is to understand how nicotine affects symptoms of depression and related brain function.

People aged 18 to 60 years with and without MDD who do not smoke cigarettes or use other nicotine products can be enrolled. Participants will have 3 or 4 study visits over 1 to 4 months. Participants will have 3 MRI scans at least 1 week apart. Each scan visit will last 5 to 7 hours. At each scan, they will have urine and breath tests to screen for recent use of alcohol, nicotine, and illegal drugs. Before each scan, they will take 1 of 3 medications: nicotine, placebo, or mecamylamine. (Mecamylamine blocks the effects of nicotine.) Participants will receive each medication once. They will not know which medication they are receiving at each scan. For each MRI scan, they will lie on a table that slides into a cylinder. Sometimes they will be asked to lie still. Sometimes they will complete tasks on a computer. Tasks may include identifying colors or playing games to win money. Each scan will take about 2 hours. Participants will answer questions about their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors before and after each scan. They will have a blood test after each scan. 

The contacts, the locations, and the complete list of the criteria can be found here: https://ichgcp.net/clinical-trials-registry/NCT05538910.
