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
    To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a range of doses of tamsulosin hydrochloride as treatment in children with an elevated detrusor leak point pressure associated with a known neurological deficit (e.g., spina bifida). This trial consisted two study periods: Study Period I, double-blind, dose titration period of 2 weeks. Study Period II, a double-blind maintenance treatment period of 3 months. In Period II, all patients completing the titration phase entered the 12-week maintenance treatment phase on their randomised dose. The patients stayed on this dose for the duration of the trial.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were to be entered in the study. All subjects were free to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time for any reason given. Close monitoring of all subjects was adhered to throughout the trial conduct.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The trial included children from 2-16 years of age,with elevated LPP associated with a known neurologic defect(e.g., spina bifida).The 3 age strata were 2-<5 years,5-<10 years &10-16 years of age.A "Missing" category is unavailable for age group breakdown of enrolled subjects.Hence,1 subject with a missing data is added to age-category"12-17 years.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    All subjects were screened for eligibility to participate in trial. Subjects attended specialist sites to ensure that they met all implemented inclusion/exclusion criteria. Subjects were not randomised to trial drug if any of the specific entry criteria was violated. In this study,231 subjects enrolled,162 subjects randomised &161 subjects treated.

    Blinding implementation details
    This trial was double blinded and to maintain the double-blind design, study medications were supplied so that the tamsulosin hydrochloride and placebo capsules were identical.The contents of each placebo capsule had an identical volume to the corresponding capsule of the same dose level of active medication.

    Notes
    [1] - 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: Baseline characteristics are based on the patients who were randomised after successfully completing the screening period and received at least one dose of the trial medication.

    The primary endpoint was response to treatment defined as patients who decreased their detrusor leak point pressure (LPP) based upon two evaluations on the same day to less than 40 cm H2O at Week 14 (end of treatment). Detrusor leak point pressure (LPP) recorded in cm H2O was obtained using a standard urodynamic technique, a cystometrogram. Full analysis set-LPP (FAS-LPP): Includes all patients in the treated set who received at least one dose of randomised. FAS-LPP contains same patients as TS. On treatment (OT): Consist of all on treatment data. Observations measured ≤3 days of stopping treatment was considered as on treatment. Missing data in these analyses was not replaced or imputed.

    End point description
    Number of participants with Clinically Relevant Abnormalities for Physical Examination, Vital Signs/Orthostatic testing (blood pressure, pulse and respiratory rate), Electrocardiogram (ECG), Laboratory Values inclusive of hormonal assays, visual acuity, Cognitive Testing, Occurrence of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs ), Premature discontinuation of study drug due to AEs and Urinalysis. Relevant findings or worsening of baseline conditions were reported as adverse events (AEs). Treated Set (TS). All subjects began treatment with their low dose and then they were titrated to their randomised medium or high dose. Therefore some of the subjects were counted more than once for having reported adverse events with different doses of the study.

    Reporting groups
    Reporting group title
    Placebo
    Reporting group description
    Subjects were orally administered to matching placebo to tamsulosin hydrochloride, with once daily by sprinkling the content of 2 capsules over a single teaspoonful (5 mL) of apple sauce or yogurt, taken 30 minutes after meal / snack (breakfast). A teaspoonful of water was taken after ingesting the applesauce or yogurt.

    Reporting group title
    tamsulosin - low dose level
    Reporting group description
    Subjects were orally administered to low dose level (0.001 – 0.002 mg/kg) of tamsulosin hydrochloride, once daily dependent on a patient's body weight (12.5 kg -100.0 kg), by sprinkling the content of 2 capsules over a single teaspoonful (5 mL) of applesauce or yogurt, taken 30 minutes after meal / snack (breakfast). A teaspoonful of water was taken after ingesting the applesauce or yogurt.

    Reporting group title
    tamsulosin - medium dose level
    Reporting group description
    Subjects were orally administered to medium dose level (0.002 – 0.004 mg/kg) of tamsulosin hydrochloride, once daily dependent on a patient's body weight (12.5 kg -100.0 kg), by sprinkling the content of 2 capsules over a single teaspoonful (5 mL) of applesauce or yogurt, taken 30 minutes after meal / snack (breakfast). A teaspoonful of water was taken after ingesting the applesauce or yogurt. One subject randomised to tamsulosin - medium dose level was not treated. Although actual number of subjects started is 40, 39 were reported to ensure consistent reporting with baseline characteristics that includes only treated subjects.

    Reporting group title
    tamsulosin - high dose level
    Reporting group description
    Subjects were orally administered to high dose level (0.004 – 0.008 mg/kg) of tamsulosin hydrochloride, once daily dependent on a patient's body weight (12.5 kg -100.0 kg), by sprinkling the content of 2 capsules over a single teaspoonful (5 mL) of applesauce or yogurt, taken 30 minutes after meal / snack (breakfast). A teaspoonful of water was taken after ingesting the applesauce or yogurt.
