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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of early eptifibatide, administered as a double bolus plus infusion, compared to placebo (with provisional use of eptifibatide in the catheterisation laboratory) in reducing the composite of death, myocardial infarction (MI), recurrent ischemia requiring urgent revascularisation (RI-UR), and thrombotic bail-out (TBO) within 96 hours of randomisation in patients with high-risk non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE ACS) who are planned to be managed with an invasive strategy after receiving study drug for 12 to 96 hours.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objectives are to demonstrate the superiority of early eptifibatide use compared to placebo (with provisional use of eptifibatide in the catherisation laboratory) in this setting, in reducing the following:
    - The composite of death and MI within 30 days
    - The composite of death, MI and RI-UR within 30 days
    - The composite of death and MI within 96 hours
    - The occurrence of MI within 96 hours
    - The occurrence of death within 30 days
    Additionally the occurrence of death at 6 months and 1 year will be examined.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. 18 years of age or older.
    2. Willing and able to give informed consent. The patient must be able to comply with study procedures and follow-up through 1 year
    3. Experiencing symptoms of cardiac ischemia at rest (angina or anginal equivalent) with episode(s) lasting at least 10 minutes within 24 hours of randomisation and have at least 2 of the following:
    - Electrocardiogram (ECG) changes: • New or presumable new ST-segment depression > or =0.1 mV or transient (<30minutes) ST-segment elevation > or = 0.1mV in at least 2 contiguous leads
    - Elevated troponin I or T greater than the established criteria at site or creatine kinase-MB fraction (CK-MB) greater than the site's upper limit of normal (ULN)
    - 60 years of age or older.
    Or have all 3 of the following:
    - Prior history of cardiovascular disease (eg, prior MI, PCI, CABG, >50%
    coronary artery stenosis by angiography, ischemia present on exercisestress
    imaging or pharmacologic-stress imaging study, peripheral
    vascular disease [PVD] with symptoms and objective evidence [eg,
    ankle brachial index {ABI} ≥0.9], non-hemmorhagic CVA)
    - Elevated troponin I or T greater than the established criteria at each site
    or CK-MB greater than the site’s ULN
    - 50-59 years of age
    4. Able to be randomised within 12 hours of presentation.
    5. Plan to undergo an invasive strategy after administration of study drug for 12 to 96 hours.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Pregnancy-known or suspected-premenopausal females must have a confirmed negative urine or serum pregnancy test before study enrolment
    2. Renal dialysis within 30 days prior to randomisation
    3. Other serious illness (eg, active cancer within 5 years, sepsis) or any condition that the investigator feels would pose a significiant hazard to the patient if the investigational therapy was to be initiated.
    4. History of a hemorrhagic stroke at any time or non-hemorrhagic stroke of any etiology within 7 days; central nervous system structural damage (eg, neoplasm, aneurysm, intracranial surgery);any recent severe head or facial trauma.
    5. History of a bleeding diathesis, including documented gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding or any history of clinically significant GI bleeding, or evidence of active abnormal bleeding within 30 days prior to randomisation or an international normalised ratio (INR) >1.8 due to treatment with an oral anticoagulant or underlying coagulopathy.
    6. Major surgery, biopsy of a parenchymal organ, or significant trauma within 14 days prior to randomisation
    7. History of heparin or eptifibatide induced thrombocytopenia or a platelet count of <100,000 mm3. Platelet count should be confirmed by drawing a second blood sample.
    8. Intent to use a direct thrombin inhibitor (other than bivalirudin [Angiomax®]), factor Xa inhibitor (e.g. fondaparinux [Arixtra®], low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) other than enoxaparin, or any other anticoagulant other than UFH, enoxaparin, or bivalirudin. (Exception: warfarin after completion of study drug infusion is permitted in patients with an indication for oral anticoagulation.
    9. Recent therapy with a GP IIB/IIIa inhibitor; abciximab within 24 hours prior to randomisation, or eptifibatide, tirofiban, or other agent within 4 hours prior to randomisation.
    10 Known hypersensitivity to any component of the products evaluated in the study.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Safety:
    All serious adverse events will be monitored from randomisation through the 30-day follow-up contact. In addition clinical events and 2 key safety endpoints (for the patients who undergo CABG surgery), post-operative bleeding volume and the occurrence of surgical re-exporation, will be assessed. Mortality will be monitored for one year after randomisation.
    Efficacy:
    The primary efficacy endpoint is the composite of death, MI RI-UR, and TBO within 96 hours. The key secondary endpoint is the composite of death and MI within 30 days. All components of the efficacy endpoints except death will be adjudicated by a Clinical Events Committee.
