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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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. General Information on the Trial
    E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
    E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
    Myocardial infarction
    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that aliskiren 300 mg, in addition to standard therapy, has superior efficacy compared to placebo in reducing the primary index of adverse cardiac remodeling (defined as the change in LVESV from baseline to end of study) in patients after high risk acute myocardial infarction.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    For full list, refer to protocol

    To evaluate the effect of aliskiren compared to placebo on:
    • a composite outcome of CV death, hospitalization for heart failure, or a reduction
    in ejection fraction greater than 6 units (absolute percentage points)
    • a composite outcome of time to CV death, hospitalization for heart failure,
    recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke or resuscitated sudden death
    • change in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) between baseline and end of
    study
    Exploratory Objectives:
    To evaluate the effect of aliskiren compared to placebo on:
    • renal function as measured by change in estimated glomerular filtration rate
    (eGFR), cystatin C, and urinary albumin creatinine ration (uacr) from baseline to
    end of study (in a subset of patients)
    • other biological markers relevant to the pathophysiology of remodeling and other
    outcomes after myocardial infarction (in a subset of patients)
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Male or female patients 18 years and older.
    2. Patients within 7-42 days of an acute myocardial infarction associated with left
    ventricular systolic dysfunction prior to Visit 1 (see below). A qualifying myocardial
    infarction will require each of the following:
    • Typical clinical presentation consistent with myocardial infarction (i.e., chest pain,
    shortness of breath)
    • Elevation of cardiac markers (any of the following will fulfill the requirement for
    an increase in cardiac markers):
    • Both total CK and CK-MB are above the upper limit of normal (ULN) and either
    total CK or CK-MB are at least twice the upper limit of normal (2xULN)
    • CK-MB is elevated to at least twice the upper limit of normal (2xULN) when
    total CK is not available, and is confirmed by an accompanying Troponin T or I
    level at least three times the upper limit of normal (3xULN)
    • Total CK is elevated to at least twice the upper limit of normal (2xULN) when
    CK-MB is not available, or to above the ULN if confirmed by an accompanying
    Troponin T or I level at least three times the upper limit of normal (3xULN)
    • Troponin T or I level is at least five times the upper limit of normal (5xULN) and
    neither total CK nor CK-MB are available.
    • Typical ECG changes, including evolving ST-segment or T-wave changes in two
    or more contiguous ECG leads, the development of new pathological Q/QS
    waves in two or more contiguous ECG leads, or the development of new left
    bundle branch block.
    3. Documented left ventricular systolic dysfunction associated with the qualifying
    acute myocardial infarction obtained as a clinical evaluation (study) prior to Visit 1. Systolic dysfunction will be defined by at least one of the following criteria:
    If the clinical imaging was obtained < 5 days post-MI but prior to Visit 1, the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) must be as follows:
    • Echocardiography: (LVEF) ≤ 35%
    • Radionuclide ventriculography: LVEF ≤ 35%
    • Ventricular contrast angiography: LVEF ≤ 35%.
    or
    If the clinical imaging was obtained ≥ 5 days post-MI but prior to Visit 1, the LVEF must be as follows:
    • Echocardiography: (LVEF) ≤ 40%
    • Radionuclide ventriculography: LVEF ≤ 40%
    • Ventricular contrast angiography: LVEF ≤35%.
    4. Patients should be on stable doses of the following standard of care post-MI concomitant medications for at
    least 2 weeks prior to Visit 1 unless contraindicated due to intolerance:
    • A Beta-blocker
    • An Anti-platelet agent
    • A Statin
    5. Patients must be on a stable evidence-based dose /see Appendix 3) of an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor (ACEI) or Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB) but not both, for at least 2 weeks prior to Visit 1, unless contraindicated due to intolerance. For patients not on an envidence-based dose of an ACEI or an ARB, the reason (e.g., patient intolerant of these medications) must be documented.
    6. Patients who are eligible, able to participate in the study, and who consent to do
    so after the purpose and nature of the investigation has been clearly explained to
    them (written informed consent).
    7. Qualifying Echocardiogram:
    • Patients who fulfill the screening inclusion and exclusion criteria will have a
    qualifying echocardiogram performed and transmitted to the Echo Core
    Laboratory. To be eligible for randomization, patients must fulfill the following
    criteria by the core laboratory:
    • Acceptable image quality
    • Confirmed LVEF = 45%
    • Qualifying Myocardial Infarct Percentage = 20% (akinetic or dyskinetic segment
    length as percent of total cavity perimeter).
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    For full list, please see protocol.

    1. Patients requiring both ACEI and ARB combination therapy at V1 or any time
    during the study.
    2. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathies due to etiologies other than hypertension (i.e.,
    idiopathic or valvular).
    3. Severe refractory hypertension defined as MSSBP = 180 mmHg and/or MSDBP =
    110 mmHg) at Visit 2.
    4. Hemodynamically significant stenotic or obstructive valvular, subvalvular or
    supravalvular lesions.
    5. Secondary forms of cardiomyopathy such as restrictive cardiomyopathy or
    infective cardiomyopathy (e.g., Chagas’ disease).
    6. Cardiogenic shock or systolic BP < 100 mmHg or diastolic BP < 60 mmHg within the 24 hours prior to Visit 1 or 2.
    7. Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) < 30 ml/min/1.73m2 using the MDRD
    formula at Visit 1.
    8. Stroke or transient ischemic event (TIA) within 6 months of Study Visit 1.
    9. Serum potassium = 5.1 mEq/L, or dehydration at Study Visit 1.
    10. Significant valvular cardiovascular disease expected to lead to cardiac surgery
    during the course of the study.
