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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 efficacy objective of this study is to confirm the efficacy of R788 100 mg PO bid as determined by ACR20 responder rates at 6 months.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and the Declaration of Helsinki.
    Background therapy
    -
    Evidence for comparator
    Placebo tablets were provided to match the appearance of R788-containing 100 and 150 mg tablets. Placebo tablets were administered orally using the same treatment schedule as for R788-containing tablets.

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No statistical analysis performed for primary endpoint. At Month 6, the ACR20 response was achieved by significantly more patients in both the R788 150 mg qd (57%) and 100 mg bid (67%) groups and in the combined R788 group (62%) versus the total placebo group (35%, p <0.001).
    [2] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: The 2 placebo groups (bid and qd) were pooled for all efficacy data summaries and analysis.

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    The 2 placebo groups (bid and qd) were pooled for all efficacy data summaries and analysis since the observed ACR20 response rate difference between the placebo groups was <15 percentage points (prospectively defined in protocol).
