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   43847   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    The primary objective was to assess the safety up to 18 months of age of the extended use of Clopidogrel (SR25990C, Iscover®, Plavix®) 0.2 milligram/kilogram of body weight/day (mg/kg/day) in subjects for whom the shunt was still in place at one year of age.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted by investigators experienced in the treatment of pediatric subjects. The parent(s) or guardian(s) as well as the children were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time. In addition to the consent form for the parent(s)/guardian(s), an assent form in child-appropriate language was provided and explained to the child. Repeated invasive procedures were minimized. The number of blood samples as well as the amount of blood drawn were adjusted according to age and weight. A topical anesthesia may have been used to minimize distress and discomfort.
    Background therapy
    All drugs usually required in subject with systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunts were authorized for concomitant use with the study drug. The most common concomitant medications were acetylcalicylic acid, diuretic, and antibiotics.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    49 subjects were enrolled between January 2009 and January 2010 in 25 sites in 15 countries (7 countries involved in CLARINET study were not selected as the delay in obtaining IRB/IEC and Health Authorities approvals would prevent recruitment and/or no subject would be recruited as the second surgery is always performed before 1 year of age).

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Subjects from EFC5314/CLARINET study were included.

    Eligible subjects received 0.2 mg/kg/day of clopidogrel or placebo without the Investigator or the subject’s parents/guardians knowing the treatment assigned. The clopidogrel and placebo were reconstituted in the same fashion and were identical in appearance.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: Number of subjects who completed the treatment are the subjects who completed the placebo treatment as per scheduled duration; however, subjects who did not complete the treatment were followed up until end of the study period/early withdrawal.

    All bleeding events experienced during the study period were collected as for any Adverse Event. The 'on-treatment' period was defined as the period from inclusion in the extension study up to 28 days after treatment discontinuation, and subjects who experienced bleeding events during that period were counted. The analysis was performed on the Intent-to-treat (ITT) population that consisted of all included subjects. Subjects were analyzed in the treatment arm allocated at randomization into the CLARINET study.
