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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study started on 10 June 2009 (signing of first informed consent). After obtaining consent and assent (where applicable), screening evaluations were completed during a period of 2 to 5 weeks (Day -35 to Day -15) before the first dose of study drug.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A total of 167 subjects were randomized; 161 subjects received at least 1 dose of the study drug. A 2-week run-in period was included to establish the baseline assessments on Day 1 after ensuring that subjects were properly taking their cystic fibrosis (CF) medication regimens.

    Statistical analysis description
    The primary analysis for the primary efficacy variable was based on a Mixed-Effects Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM). The model included absolute change from baseline in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) as the dependent variable, treatment (ivacaftor versus placebo) and visit (Day 15, Week 8, Week 16, and Week 24) as fixed effects, and subject as a random effect, with adjustment for the continuous baseline values of age and percent predicted FEV1.

    The CFQ-R is a health-related quality of life measure for subjects with cystic fibrosis. Each domain is scored from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). A difference of at least 4 points in the respiratory domain score of the CFQ-R is considered a minimal clinically important difference (MCID).

    Absolute Change From Baseline in Weight at Week 24 and Week 48
    End point description
    As malnutrition is common in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) because of increased energy expenditures due to lung disease and fat malabsorption, body weight is an important clinical measure of nutritional status. Analysis population included all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of study drug (ivacaftor or placebo) and had available assessments during the time frame.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    For enrolled subjects, adverse events were collected through the Follow-up Visit (4 weeks [± 7 days] after the last dose of study drug).
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    For subjects who were screened but were not subsequently enrolled in the study, non-serious adverse event (AEs) were not collected, but serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported. For subjects who completed 48 weeks of study drug treatment and enrolled in the open-label extension study, adverse events were only collected through the Week 48 Visit.
