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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    This is a randomized, multicenter, double blind, parallel-group study evaluating the efficacy of mometasone furoate/formoterol fumarate (MF/F) metered dose inhaler (MDI) 400/10 mcg twice daily (BID) compared with MF MDI 400 mcg BID for 12 weeks. Prior to the 12-week double-blind treatment period, participants will receive open-label MF MDI 400 mcg BID for 2 to 3 weeks during the open-label (OL) run-in period. Efficacy will be measured by the area under the time curve from 0 to 12 hours (AUC [0-12 hr]) of the change from Baseline (BL) to the Week 12 Endpoint in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1).
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research. The following additional measures defined for this individual study were in place for the protection of trial subjects: All participants in the current study were carefully monitored for asthma exacerbations and were provided with an asthma action plan with immediate availability of emergency rescue oral steroids (e.g. prednisone) and short-acting beta 2-agonists (SABA), and had access to around-the-clock physician contact. Participants were provided with a SABA Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) at the Screening Visit for use as rescue medication during the study, and were advised not to take the SABA via an MDI or a nebulizer regularly or in anticipation of asthma symptoms. Rescue medication was recorded in the Patient Diary.

    Screening details
    834 participants enrolled in the open-label Run-In Period, of which 728 participants were randomized into 1 of 3 arms. Of 728 randomized participants, 643 participants overall completed the Treatment Period, while 85 participants overall discontinued investigational treatment early. All randomized participants received ≥1 dose of study medication.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: Period 1 represents an open-label run-in to standardize treatment—not all of these subjects participated in the trial. Period 2 (baseline period) represents the randomized double-blind treatment phase. This is the primary study period of interest, thus baseline characteristics are reported for this period.

    Notes
    [2] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The number of subjects in the baseline period represent those who were randomized to treatment on study—this is the primary population of interest. The worldwide number represents all enrolled subjects who entered an open-label run-in to standardize treatment—not all of these subjects participated in the trial.

    End point description
    Spirometry was performed to measure FEV1. The average of the two predose FEV1 measurements (30 minutes prior to dosing and 0 hour, immediately prior to dosing) at the Baseline Visit were subtracted from each of the serial measurements over the 12-hour period. The AUC was calculated based on these changes from Baseline evaluations. The comparison was for MF/F versus MF. Standard deviation was pooled.

AQLQ(S) consists of 32 questions each scaled from 1 (worst case) to 7 (best case). The AQLQ(S) Total score was the mean of the individual 32 questions. The comparison was for MF/F versus placebo.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    06 Nov 2006
    P04431 Amendment 1 added an additional treatment arm (MF/F 200/10 mcg BID) to the study, which increased study enrollment from 414 to 621. Amendment 1 also changed the primary analysis endpoint from Week 1 to Week 12 (which changed the primary objective) and revised the secondary objectives to include assessment of asthma control by ACQ, AQLQ(S), and proportion of nocturnal awakenings due to asthma which require use of SABA. Revision to the Statistical Analysis Plan was also required to address these changes.
    27 Dec 2007
    Amendment 2 added a Screening Period separate from the open-label Run-in Period and added telephone contact between Visit 1 and Visit 2, and clarified that participants would NOT start taking open-label run-in medication until after the laboratory results were available and found to be clinically acceptable. Amendment 2 also clarified several eligibility criteria (including modifying the age limit for countries such as Russia where minors are not permitted in clinical studies) and discontinuation criteria. Finally, Amendment 2 revised the defined stability limit in the definition of asthma exacerbation (secondary efficacy endpoint).
