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   43841   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7281   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.

    Paget's disease of the bone (PDB)
    E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
    Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is a serious bone disease, which causes pain, arthirtis and deafness and can lead to softening of the bones causing them to enlarge and become bent.

    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To determine whether targeted intervention with Zoledronic acid can prevent the development of new focal bone lesions in carriers of SQSTM1 gene mutations.

    There will be an observational group in this study who have the same risk of developing paget's disease as the general population. The primary objective of the Observational study will be to determine if genetic testing impacts on quality of life or depression in participants who do not have SQSTM1 gene mutations.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objectives of the study will be to determine whether targeted intervention with Zoledronic acid:
    a) can modify the activity of existing bone lesions in carriers of SQSTM1 gene mutations,
    b) can reduce or prevent PDB-related skeletal events (PRSE) in carriers of SQSTM1 mutations.
    c) can reduce or prevent increases in bone turnover in carriers of SQSTM1 gene mutations.
    d) can modify quality of life, bone pain and anxiety or depression.

    For the observational study, the secondary objectives will be to determine if:
    a) bone turnover changes with time in non-gene carriers,
    b) alterations in the quality of life occur in non-gene carriers.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Inclusion criteria for a Genetic Test - Patients with PDB (Probands):
    Probands must be diagnosed with PDB AND
    Have at least one relative aged 30 years old or greater

    Inclusion criteria for a Genetic Test - Relatives:
    Relatives are aged 30 years old or greater.
    Relatives not yet been diagnosed with PDB.

    Inclusion Criteria for the Intervention Study:
    Relatives of patients with SQSTM1 mutations aged 30 years old or greater who carry SQSTM1 mutations.
    Not already diagnosed with PDB at study entry.

    Inclusion Criteria for the Observational Study:
    Relatives aged between 30 years old or greater
    Relatives who on screening are found NOT to have SQSTM1 mutations
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Exclusion Criteria for Genetic Test (Patient with PDB and Relatives)
    Subjects not willing to have a blood sample taken.
    Subjects who are unwilling or unable to consent.

    Exclusion Criteria for the Intervention Study
    Already diagnosed with PDB.
    Unwilling or unable to consent.
    Bisphosphonates contraindicated.
    Receiving bisphosphonate therapy for another reason.
    Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ).

    Active uveitis, iritis, or episcleritis.
    Already taking part in another randomised controlled clinical trial.
    Pregnancy.
    Lactation.

    Exclusion waivers will not be permitted.
    1 Female patients of child bearing potential should have a negative pregnancy test on the day of, or the day before, the infusion of study drug. The preferred method of testing for pregnancy is serum beta-hCG, but a urine beta-hCG is also acceptable for centres that are unable to obtain a serum beta-hCG within 1-2 days. Participants who are sexually active must receive specific advice about the possible risks associated with getting pregnant whilst on the trial and must agree to practice a medically acceptable form of birth control for at least 12 months post infusion (acceptable birth control defined as the use of an IUD, a barrier method with spermicide, condoms, subdermal implant or oral contraceptives)

    Exclusion Criteria for the Observational Study
    Subjects diagnosed with PDB or SQSTM1 mutation positive
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    In the intervention study, the primary outcome will be the total number of subjects who develop new bone lesions on radionuclide bone scans with the characteristics of PDB between the baseline visit and the final follow up visit. The presence of lesions will be assessed by an imaging expert blinded to treatment allocation. A new bone lesion will be defined as evidence of involvement of a new bone or part of an existing bone at the end-of-study visit which was not thought to be involved at the baseline visit”.

    In the observational study, the primary outcome measure will be anxiety / depression, measured using the HADS scale.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The primary outcomes will be assessed following the final follow up visit for the last patient.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    In the interventional study, the secondary outcome measures will be:
    a) number of new bone lesions on radionuclide bone scan,
    b) change in activity of existing bone lesions that were present at the baseline assessed by semiquantitative analysis of radionuclide bone scans,
    c) the development of PDB-related skeletal events (PRSE) in carriers of SQSTM1 mutations, defined as any one of the following:
    - development of new bone lesions thought to be due to PDB on imaging
    - development of complications thought to be due to the development or progression of PDB including pathological fractures, bone deformity, deafness, deafness, joint replacement surgery or other orthopaedic procedures
    - administration of treatment for PDB with an antiresorptive drug because of the development of signs or symptoms thought to be due to PDB such as pain localised to an affected site or neurological symptoms
    d) the development of increased bone turnover, as assessed by measurement of biochemical markers of bone resorption (NTX) and bone formation (ALP, BSALP, P1NP),
    e) quality of life, and anxiety and depression assessed by the SF-36, BPI and HADS questionnaires,
    f) presence and severity of localised bone pain as assessed by the BPI pain manikin,
    g) presence and severity of pain assessed by the BPI pain questionnaire.

    In the observational study, the secondary outcomes will be:
    a) the development of increased bone turnover, as assessed by measurement of biochemical markers of bone resorption (NTX) and bone formation (ALP, BSALP, P1NP),
    b) quality of life, assessed by the SF-36 questionnaire.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The secondary outcomes will be assessed following the final follow up visit for the last patient.

    Due to the nature of this study, longer term follow up of these subjects may well be an option. This will depend on end of trial analysis or results and continuing funding. If this occurs, intervention will continue.

    If this does not occur, participants will need to speak to their local doctor/clinician to determine if this is something they would consider doing.
