About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Reporting of VEGF Inhibitors Associated Cardiovasclular Adverse reactioNs Using International Pharmacovigilance Database.

Antiangiogenics (AAs) which are vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or VEGF receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors might have high grade adverse events (AEs) on the cardio-vascular system. This study investigates reports of cardio-vascular toxicity with treatment including VEGF and VEGFR inhibitors using the World Health Organization (WHO) database VigiBase.

Read the detailed description

AAs have dramatically improved clinical outcomes in multiple cancer types and are increasingly being tested in earlier disease settings and used in combination. However, AEs can occur. Here the investigators use VigiBase (http://www.vigiaccess.org/), the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports, to identify cases of cardiovascular adverse drug reaction following treatment with AAs.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Cardiac complication induced by VEGF/VEGFR inhibitorDrug

    Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) of cardiac complication of patient treated by AAs, with a chronology compatible with the drug toxicity

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cardio-vascular toxicity of AAs

    Identification and report of the cardio-vascular toxicity of AAs. The research includes the report with MedDRA terms: SOC Cardiac Disorders, SOC Vascular Disorders, Sudden death (PT). Drugs investigated are: sorafenib, sunitinib, pazopanib, vandetanib, axitinib, regorafenib, nintedanib, lenvatinib, ceritinib, bevacizumab, ramucirumab, aflibercept.

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Causality assessment of reported cardiovascular events according to the WHO system

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

  2. Description of the type of cardiotoxicity depending on the category of AAs

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

  3. Description of the duration of treatment when the toxicity happens (role of cumulative dose)

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

  4. Description of the drug-drug interactions associated with adverse events

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

  5. Description of the pathologies (cancer) for which the incriminated drugs have been prescribed

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

  6. Description of the population of patients having a cardio-vascular adverse event

    Measured: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Complication and Vascular Diseases, run by Groupe Hospitalier Pitie-Salpetriere at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cardio-vascular toxicity of AAs (time frame: Case reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports to 01/01/2018). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03413176, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Sep 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
