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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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
    To evaluate safety of N8 (turoctocog alfa) in paediatric previously treated patients (PTPs) <12 years of age with haemophilia A
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki (2008) and ICH Good Clinical Practice (1996). The results presented reflect data available in the clinical database as of 13 -Dec-2011. The database was updated on 1-Feb-2012 in order to change the coding of one adverse event coded as ‘anti-factor VIII antibody positive’. The results of a second separately drawn sample from this patient was negative, meaning that the definition of FVIII inhibitors was not met and the coding of the event was therefore changed to ‘anti-factor VIII antibody test’.

    All subjects treated with Turoctocog Alfa
    Arm description
    The patients received bleeding preventive treatment with a single dose of turoctocog alfa of 25-50 IU/kg every second day or 25-60 IU/kg three times weekly. Turoctocog alfa was administered as a slow bolus i.v. injection (approximately 1-2 mL/min). Pharmacokinetic assessments were performed in at least 13 patients from each age cohort. Each patient participating in the pharmacokinetic assessments received one dose of previous factor VIII (FVIII) and one dose of turoctocog alfa.

    Primary: The incidence rate of FVIII inhibitors (≥0.6 BU/mL)

    Close Top of page
    End point title
    The incidence rate of FVIII inhibitors (≥0.6 BU/mL) [1]
    End point description
    The incidence rate of FVIII inhibitors was calculated by having all patients with inhibitors in the nominator and including all patients with a minimum 50 exposure plus any patients with less than 50 exposures but with inhibitors in denominator.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    The adverse events were collected throughout the trial which corresponded to an average of 138 days per subject.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: A one-sided 97.5% upper confidence limit for the incidence rate of FVIII inhibitors was provided based on an exact calculation for a binomial distribution. Adequate safety with regard to inhibitors was concluded if the upper one-sided 97.5% confidence limit was below 10.7%. Result : The one-sided 97.5% upper confidence limit for the inhibitor incidence rate of zero was 6.06%.
