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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 objective was to evaluate the decrease of Aβ in the CNS and the increase in blood plasma, thereby corroborating the assumed primary mechanism of action of IVIG in AD patients, namely the interference with the pathomechanism for AD ("amyloid cascade hypothesis").
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial was conducted in accordance to the principles of GCP, ensuring that the rights, safety and well-being of patients are protected and in consistency with the Declaration of Helsinki. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully defined in order to protect subjects from contraindications, interactions with other medication and risk factors associated with the investigational medicinal product. Throughout the study safety was assessed, such as occurrence of AEs, safety labs, vital signs and physical/neurological examinations, safety MRI.

    End point title
    Change in the Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Plasma Aβ1-40 in the 2 or 4 weeks after the last treatment infusion from the trough level prior to the last treatment infusion [1]
    End point description
    For participants who received infusions every 2 weeks, plasma samples were collected at the trough level at Week 22 and on Days 1, 4, 7, and 14 after Week 22. For participants who received infusions every 4 weeks, plasma samples were collected at the trough level at Week 20 and on Days 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, and 28 after Week 20. Samples for determining Aβ1-40 in blood plasma were processed at a central laboratory using a commercially available kit from Innogenetics NV (INNO-BIA plasma Aβ forms; Gent, Belgium).
