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   44363   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7387   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.

    A phase 2/3 randomized, controlled, double-masked, multicenter, comparative trial, in parallel groups, to compare the safety and efficacy of intravitreous injections of 0.3 mg pegaptanib sodium (Macugen), given as often as every 6 weeks for 2 years, to sham injections in subjects with diabetic macular edema (DME) involving the center of the macula with an openlabel Macugen year 3 extension.
    Studio di fase 2/3 comparativo, multicentrico, con doppio mascheramento, controllato, randomizzato, a gruppi paralleli, per confrontare la sicurezza e l'efficacia di iniezioni intravitreali da 0.3, mg di sodio pegaptanib (Macugen), somministrato ogni 6 settimane per 2 anni, mediante il confronto con finte iniezioni in soggetti affetti da edema maculare diabetico (EMD) che interessa la parte centrale della macula con estensione del trattamento in aperto con Macugen per un terzo anno.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    to confirm the safety and compare the efficacy of pegaptanib sodium when given as intravitreous injections of 0.3 mg/eye versus sham injections in a 1:1 ratio, respectively. All subjects previously randomized to the 0.03 or 0.003 mg/eye treatment arms during the conduct of EOP1013 through EOP1013C will be given the option of either receiving injections of 0.3 mg/eye or withdrawing from the study. Injections will be given as often as every 6 weeks for 2 years, in subjects with diabetic macular edema involving the center of the macula associated with vision loss not due to ischemia.
    la conferma della sicurezza e il confronto dell'efficacia tra iniezioni intravitreali di sodio pegaptanib da 0,3 mg/occhio e finte iniezioni in rapporto rispettivamente di 1:1. A tutti i soggetti precedentemente randomizzati nei bracci 0.03 o 0.003 mg/occhio durante lo svolgimento dei protocolli da EOP1013 a EOP1013C verra' chiesto se desiderano continuare lo studio ricevendo iniezioni di Pegaptanib 0.3 mg/occhio oppure se desiderano ritirarsi dallo studio. Le iniezioni verranno effettuate ogni 6 settimane per 2 anni, in soggetti affetti da edema maculare diabetico che interessa la parte centrale della macula ed e` associato a perdita della vista non a causa di ischemie.

    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    -
    Possono essere arruolati soggetti di entrambi i sessi, che abbiano gia` compiuto 18 anni, con diagnosi di edema maculare diabetico che interessa i centro della macula (definito come spessore del punto centrale misurato tramite OCT pari almeno a 250 micron), con acuita` visiva corretta al meglio pari o inferiore a un punteggio di 65 lettere (circa 20/50 equivalente Snellen), ma non peggiore di 35 (circa 20/200 equivalente Snellen), nell'occhio in studio. Le donne in eta` fertile utilizzeranno due metodi contraccettivi efficaci per l'intera durata dello studio.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    -
    Principali criteri di esclusione. Necessita` di fotocaogulazione nell'occhio affetto entro i successivi 9 mesi o fotocoagulazione effettuata nei 6 mesi precedenti la visita di screening, trazione vitreoretinica come confermato da OCT, qualsiasi altra causa di edema maculare, atrofia/cicatrici/fibrosi che coinvolgono il centro della macula, trattamento fotocoagulativo o laser nei 4 mesi precedenti (focale o a griglia), HbA1C&gt;= 10% o segni recenti di diabete non controllato, significative opacita` dei mezzi diottrici, malattie dei vari organi o apparati (cardiovascolare, renale, epatico, ecc.) clinicamente significative.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The proportion of subjects exhibiting an improvement of >10 letters (or 2-lines) of vision (ETDRS) from baseline. The 1 year endpoint is the primary endpoint, while the 2 year endpoint will be the secondary endpoint.
    La proporzione di soggetti che presentano un miglioramento > 10 lettere (o 2 gradi) di vista (ETDRS) rispetto alla fase baseline. Questo endpoint verra` valutato al primo anno per testare la significativita` della comparazione tra la proporzione di 2 gradi di miglioramento nel gruppo con dosaggio di 0.3 mg/occhio verso coloro che ricevono il finto trattamento. L'endpoint ad 1 anno e` l'endpoint primario
