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   43845   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    •To assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of
    canakinumab
    •To assess efficacy at an exploratory level by investigating disease
    control defined by maintenance of at least an adapted ACR pediatric 30
    during the extension PHASE
    •To perform biomarker analyses to explore the characteristics of
    response to canakinumab
    treatment
    •To introduce Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS) and
    Disease Activity Score
    (DAS) as exploratory assessments of efficacy
    •To assess efficacy of canakinumab treatment based on adapted
    pediatric ACR30 criteria in
    patients who report previous Anakinra, tocilizumab or other biologic
    treatment
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1.Parent's or legal guardian's written informed consent and child's
    assent, if appropriate, or patient's informed consent for ≥ 18 years of
    age before any study related activity is performed.
    2.The following patients are eligible to participate in the open label
    extension study (CACZ885G2301E1):
    • Patients from study CACZ885G2305 or CACZ885G2301 who achieved
    an adapted ACR pediatric 30 response 15 days after their initial dose of
    canakinumab but clinically deteriorated AS DEFINED BY a minimum ACR
    Pediatric 30 response not BEING maintained after Day 15 and
    intervention is deemed necessary by the investigator.
    • Patients in study CACZ885G2301 who are not eligible to enter Part II
    (withdrawal part) because they were not able to meet the corticosteroid
    entry criteria of 0.5 mg/kg oral prednisone (or equivalent) or were not
    able to taper their steroids by at least 0.3 mg/kg (please refer to
    CACZ885G2301 protocol for detailed rules)
    • Responder patients in Part I or Part II who were maintaining their
    minimum ACR pediatric 30 response or had not flared when
    CACZ885G2301 was stopped.
    • CACZ885G2301 patients who were responders in Part I (achieved and
    maintained a minimum adapted ACR pediatric 30) but experienced a
    flare in Part II.
    • Treatment-naïve patients need to meet the following criteria:
    - Confirmed diagnosis of Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis as per
    ILAR definition that must have occured at least 2 months prior to
    enrollment with onset of disease < 16 years of age
    - Male and female patients aged ≥ 2 TO < 20 years of age
    - Active disease at the time of enrollment defined as having 2 or more of
    the following:documented spiking, intermittent fever (body temperature
    >38°C) for at least 1 day during the screening period and within 1 week
    before first canakinumab dose; at least 2 joints with active arthritis; Creactive
    protein (CRP) > 30 mg/l (normal range < 10 MG/L); rash;
    serositis; lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly
    - Naïve to canakinumab
    OTHER PROTOCOL-DEFINED INCLUSION CRITERIA MAY APPLY
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) female patients
    2. Female patients having reached sexual maturity UNLESS they are:
    • female patients whose career, lifestyle, or sexual orientation precludes
    intercourse with a male partner and/or
    • using an acceptable method of contraception with a failure rate (Pearl
    Index (PI)) < 1.
    Reliable contraception should be maintained throughout the study and
    for 3 months after study drug discontinuation.
    3. History hypersensitivity to study drug or to biologics.
    4. With active or recurrent bacterial, fungal or viral infection at the time
    of enrollment
    5. Risk factors for tuberculosis (TB)
    6. With underlying metabolic, renal, hepatic, infectious or
    gastrointestinal conditions which in the opinion of the investigator
    immunocompromises the patient and/ or places the patient at
    unacceptable risk for participation in an immunodulatory therapy. In
    particular, clinical evidence or history of multiple sclerosis or other
    demyelinating diseases, or Felty's syndrome
    7. With neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count <1500/mm3) at
    screening
    8. With significant medical conditions, which in the opinion of the
    Investigator will exclude the patient from the study (can be discussed on
    a case by case basis with Novartis)
    9. History of malignancy of any organ system (other than localized basal
    cell carcinoma of the skin), treated or untreated, within the past 5 years,
    regardless of whether there is evidence of local recurrence or
    metastases
    10. Live vaccinations within 3 months prior to the start of the study.
    Killed or inactivated vaccines may be permitted according to the
    investigator's discretion.
    11. Donation or loss of blood (amount depending on age and weight, 10-
    20% or more of volume, see Appendix 3 within 8 weeks prior to first
    dosing, or longer if required by local regulation.
    12. Familial and social conditions rendering regular medical assessment
    not possible
    13. History of drug or alcohol abuse within the 12 months prior to
    dosing.
    No additional exclusions may be applied by the investigator, in order to
    ensure that the study population will be representative of all eligible
    patients.
