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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to characterize the dose response relationship of candesartan cilexetil (once-daily) in hypertensive pediatric subjects (1 to <6 years of age) by evaluation of the slope of the linear regression for the change in trough SiSBP from baseline (Day 0) to the end of the 4-week double-blind treatment period (Day 28) as a function of dose.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Dose response relationship of Atacand for the change in trough SiSBP from baseline to the end of the double-blind treatment period as a function of dose for each of the 2 body weight panels

    Dose response relationship of Atacand for the change in trough SiDBP, SuSBP, and SuDBP from baseline to the end of the double-blind treatment period as a function of dose

    Mean change in trough SiSBP, SuSBP, SiDBP, and SuDBP for Atacand from baseline to the end of the double-blind treatment period

    Change in urinary protein/creatinine and urinary albumin/creatinine ratio from baseline to the end of the double-blind treatment period and to the end of the open-label treatment period

    Safety as assessed by adverse events, adverse events that necessitate study drug discontinuation, serious adverse events, physical exam findings, ECG, and laboratory tests during the double-blind treatment period and the open-label treatment period

    Medication adherence
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Information not present in EudraCT
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    For study inclusion, subjects must fulfill all eligibility criteria

    1) Signed informed consent by a parent or a legal guardian

    2) Age 1 to less than 6 years

    3) Weight ³ 10 kg and £ 40 kg

    4) SiSBP and/or SiDBP ³ 95th percentile and £ 20 mm Hg (systolic) and/or 10 mm Hg (diastolic) above the 95th percentile at screening and at randomization based on height-adjusted charts for age and gender (Appendices C through H)
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    The following exclude subjects from study participation:

    1) Any situation, clinical condition or laboratory abnormality that, in the opinion of the investigator or sponsor, may interfere with the subject’s participation in the study or would pose a significant risk to the subject or interfere with the assessment of safety and efficacy endpoints

    2) Weight < 10 kg and > 40 kg

    3) Less than 80% compliance with study medication during single-blind placebo screening as assessed by residual medication volume

    4) Hypertension secondary to pheochromocytoma, hyperthyroidism, or Cushing’s syndrome

    5) Uncorrected coarctation of the aorta, bilateral renal artery stenosis, or unilateral renal artery stenosis in a single kidney

    6) Estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) < 50 mL/min/1.73m2 based on the Schwartz Formula (Schwartz et al, 1987)

    7) Renal transplant < 6 months prior to study entry

    Subjects who have received a renal transplant ³ 6 months prior to study entry may participate in the study if: 1) renal function is stable, 2) estimated GFR >50 mL/min/1.73m2, 3) stable doses of immunosuppressive medications are anticipated throughout the 4-week, double-blind period of the study, 4) no episodes of acute allograft rejection have occurred within 30 days of study entry, and 5) the renal allograft has no documented renal artery stenosis

    8) Nephrotic syndrome not in remission

    9) Unstable insulin dependent diabetes mellitus

    10) Known bleeding, coagulation, or platelet disorder that could interfere with blood sampling

    11) Clinically significant valvular heart disease


    12) Clinical diagnosis of heart failure

    13) Clinically significant arrhythmia (eg, any arrhythmia requiring medical therapy or that causes symptoms)

    14) Second or third degree AV block

    15) Impaired liver function defined as either acute liver disease or chronic liver disease with persistent liver enzyme values greater than 1½ times the upper limit of the reference range for aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT)

    16) Known hypersensitivity to ARBs

    17) Currently receiving an angiotensin receptor blocker or an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor that in the investigator’s judgement cannot safely be withdrawn during the study

    Subjects receiving an angiotensin receptor blocker or an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor may be eligible if they undergo withdrawal of the antihypertensive medication over a 2-week washout period and subsequently meet BP inclusion/exclusion criteria.

    Subjects currently receiving other classes of antihypertensive medications (eg, diuretics, calcium channel blockers or beta-blockers) and whose BP values meet inclusion/exclusion criteria may participate in the study while continuing their current antihypertensive medication regimen. Up to 2 concomitant antihypertensive medications are permitted. Doses and dose regimens of concomitant antihypertensive medications must remain unchanged during the 4-week double-blind period of the study.

    18) Currently using, or used within 14 days prior to receiving double-blind medication, any concomitant medications which in the opinion of the investigator could negatively affect the subject

    19) Unable or unwilling to comply with the study requirements including blood sampling and swallowing study drug suspension

    20) Received an investigational agent within 30 days prior to receiving study medication
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary efficacy endpoint of this study is the slope of linear regression for the change in trough SiSBP from baseline (Day 0) to the end of the 4-week double-blind treatment period (Day 28) as a function of dose for subjects 1 to less than 6 years of age with hypertension based on the ITT population.

    Safety endpoints include

    1) Incidence of AEs
    2) Incidence of discontinuations due to any AE
    3) SAEs
    4) Heart rate and change in heart rate
