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   44237   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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 main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of adalimumab in patients 2 to < 4 years of age or ≥ 4 years of age weighing < 15 kg, with moderately to severely active polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) or polyarticular course JIA.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Parent or legal guardian read and understood the information provided about the study and gave written permission. An assent form was not used in this study due to the young age of children being studied.

    Number of Subjects with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [1]
    End point description
    An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. If an AE meets any of the following criteria, it is considered a serious adverse event (SAE): Results in death, is life-threatening, results in hospitalization or the prolongation of hospitalization, is a congenital anomaly or a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or is an important medical event requiring medical or surgical intervention to prevent a serious outcome. A treatment-emergent AE (TEAE) is defined as any AE with onset or worsening reported by a subject from the time that the first dose of adalimumab is administered until 5 half-lives (70 days) have elapsed following discontinuation of adalimumab administration (total of 32.5 months).
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    TEAEs were collected from first dose of study drug until 70 days after the last dose of study drug and before start of commercial adalimumab or other biologics (32.5 months).

    The PedACR90 response is defined by the Pediatric American College of Rheumatology as ≥ 90% improvement in at least 3 of 6 JIA core set criteria, and ≥ 30% worsening in not more than 1 of 6 JIA core set criteria. The 6 variables for the JIA core set criteria include PGA of subject's disease activity, Parent's Global Assessment of subject's disease activity, number of active joints (joints with swelling not due to deformity or joints with LOM and joints with POM, tenderness, or both), number of joints with LOM, DICHAQ, and CRP. Baseline is the last value prior to the first dose of study drug.

    Disability Index of Child Health Assessment Questionnaire (DICHAQ): Mean Change from Baseline to Each Visit
    End point description
    The DICHAQ is a self-reported subject-oriented outcome measure, calculated as the mean of the following 8 category scores (range: 0 to 3): Dressing and Grooming, Arising, Eating, Walking, Hygiene, Reach, Grip, and Activities. The score of each category is calculated as the maximum of the scores for the questions within that category. If aids and devices and/or help from another person are used for a category, a lower category score is adjusted to 2 for that category. A subject must have scores for at least 6 categories in order to compute the DICHAQ score. Total score is derived as average of all categories: 0 (no disability) to 3 (complete disability). Baseline is the last value prior to the first dose of study drug. Baseline is defined as the last nonmissing value prior to the first dose of study drug. Subjects with nonmissing Baseline and at least 1 postbaseline observation are included in the analysis. n=subjects with a nonmissing value at baseline and each visit.

    Child's Health Questionnaire Parent Form (CHQ-PF50) Parental Impact - Emotional Category: Mean Change from Baseline to Each Visit
    End point description
    The CHQ-PF50 is a subject-reported outcome measure that includes 50 questions related to physical and mental health, social limitations, and impact on parents and family. Scores for each category were converted to a scale from 0 (implies higher disease activity) to 100 (implies lower disease activity). Baseline is defined as the last nonmissing value prior to the first dose of study drug. Subjects with nonmissing Baseline and at least 1 postbaseline observation are included in the analysis. n=subjects with a nonmissing value at baseline and each visit.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    TEAEs were collected from first dose of study drug until 70 days after the last dose of study drug and before start of commercial adalimumab or other biologics (32.5 months); SAEs were collected from the time informed consent was obtained (33.5 months)
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    A treatment-emergent AE (TEAE) is defined as any AE with onset or worsening reported by a subject from the time that the first dose of adalimumab is administered until 5 half-lives (70 days) have elapsed following discontinuation of adalimumab administration. TEAEs were collected whether elicited or spontaneously reported by the subject.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    26 Aug 2008
    To add study visits to gather additional safety data and to shorten the intervals between visits, and change study duration from based on age (10 years) to based on age and weight.
    08 Jan 2009
    To clarify and update study procedures; include BSA dosing and dosing diaries; and update criteria for JIA diagnosis to include International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR) classification.
    06 Jul 2009
    To extend the study population to include children in the EU who meet the study criteria; update the classification of JIA to add back in ‘moderately to severely’ in the description and to include polyarticular course JIA; revise inclusion exclusion criteria for safety reasons (eg, normal cardiopulmonary and neurological exams, parent/legal guardian responsible for storage and handling of study drug, procedures following positive purified protein derivative [PPD] test, and exclusionary concomitant medications); update conditions in which a subject should be withdrawn; and include (EU) and update (US) injection instructions for adalimumab.
    29 Oct 2009
    To extend the study for subjects in the EU who have reached 4 years of age and weight ≥ 15 kg for up to 1 additional year to allow time for transition to an appropriate treatment.
    23 Aug 2010
    To add anti-adalimumab antibody (AAA) assay; clarify that subjects beginning commercial adalimumab immediately after the trial will not be required to have a 70-day follow-up call; expand anti-nuclear antibody (ANA)/double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) test to include US subjects; and include previous Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (DMARD) failure as part of inclusion criteria for subjects in the EU.
    01 May 2012
    To include annual tuberculosis tests.
