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   43858   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objectives of this study were to evaluate the efficacy of a 3-dose induction regimen of infliximab in inducing clinical response, as measured by the Mayo score, in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC, and to evaluate the safety profile of infliximab during induction and maintenance treatment.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practices and applicable regulatory requirements. Known instances of nonconformance were documented and are not considered to have had an impact on the overall conclusions of this study. Safety was evaluated based on the variables like Adverse events, Clinical laboratory tests (hematology, serum chemistry), Vital sign measurements, Physical examinations, Tuberculosis testing, Antinuclear antibodies/anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies.

    Primary: The Number of Participants With Clinical Response at Week 8

    End point title
    The Number of Participants With Clinical Response at Week 8 [1]
    End point description
    Range is 0 to 12 points, where 0 is the least disease activity, and 12 is the most disease activity. Clinical response at Week 8 is defined as a decrease from baseline in the Mayo score (based on symptoms of ulcerative colitis) by greater than or equal to (>=) 30% and >= 3 points, with a decrease in the rectal bleeding subscore >=1 or a rectal bleeding subscore of 0 or 1. Treatment failure rules (patients who discontinued study agent due to lack of therapeutic effect, had a colectomy or ostomy, or had protocol-prohibited medication changes) were applied to determine the final clinical response status for each patient.

    End point description
    Range is 0 to 85 points, where 0 is the least disease activity, and 85 is the most disease activity. Remission is a score less than (<) 10. In addition to the PUCAI remission status, treatment failure rules (patients who discontinued study agent due to lack of therapeutic effect, had a colectomy or ostomy, had protocol-prohibited medication changes, or stepped up) were applied to determine the final PUCAI.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    01 Mar 2007
    The first amendment included clarifications about the conduct of the study and minor editorial changes. The major changes were as follows. Statements were added to describe postmarketing reports that link the occurrence of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL) with the concomitant use of immunomodulators in adolescent and young adult patients with Crohn’s disease. The required use of such immunomodulators concomitantly with infliximab during the study was removed. Planned enrollment was increased from 40 to 60 participants. Participants who had failed only treatment with 5-ASA compounds were allowed to enter the study. The definition of a positive study was modified and the primary analysis was revised. Intervals were changed between screening and the diagnosis of UC and between screening and the discontinuation or use of specific medications or therapies. The Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index (PUCAI) was added as a measure of efficacy to be assessed at every visit at which a partial Mayo score was obtained and the major secondary endpoints were modified. The number of sigmoidoscopies required during the study was reduced. A DMC was added. Criteria for screening laboratory test results were revised
    04 Feb 2008
    The second amendment included modifications to concomitant medication and exclusion criteria, particularly with regard to corticosteroid use,a long with minor editorial changes.
    16 Oct 2008
    The third amendment updated the text about HSTCL to be consistent with both the informed consent form and the April 2008 risk update document.
