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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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
    Can recombinant human parathyroid hormone (rh PTH 1-84) accelerate clinical resolution of the acute Charcot foot by enhancing bone repair and fracture healing. This will be asssessed in terms of: • Time to resolution of the acute Charcot foot • Percentage of patients with a clinical outcome of Charcot foot resolution by 6 months • Percentage of patients with a clinical outcome of Charcot foot resolution by 12 months
    Protection of trial subjects
    We will also undertake a safety evaluation monthly for the first 3 months and then at three monthly intervals until termination of treatment. This will include physical examinations, vital signs (sitting systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and body temperature) and assessment of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), and laboratory measurement of serum calcium, phosphate and creatinine. We will also record adherence to medications.
    Background therapy
    All patients will receive standard treatment which includes treatment with cast immobilisation and Calcium and Vitamin D supplementation (1000 mg Ca++/ daily and 800IU of Vitamin D3). This will include 2 tablets daily of Calceos. Each tablet Calceos contains Calcium carbonate 1.25g equivalent to 500 mg lemental calcium or Ca2+ 12.5 mmol and 10 micrograms colecalciferol (vitamin D3) equivalent to 400 units).

    Primary Endpoint [1]
    End point description
    The primary objective is to determine whether there is a difference between active treatment with rh PTH 1-84 and standard treatment alone in terms of Time to resolution of the Charcot foot in relation to the adverse event of a skin foot temperature difference of greater than 2°C between the Charcot and the contralateral foot Percentage of patients with a clinical outcome of Charcot foot resolution by 6 months. This will be expressed as a binary indicator for resolution of the acute Charcot foot (in relation to the adverse event of a difference of greater than 2°C between the Charcot and the contralateral foot). Percentage of patients with a clinical outcome of Charcot foot resolution by 12 months. This will be expressed as a binary indicator for resolution of the acute Charcot foot (in relation to the adverse event of a difference of greater than 2°C between the Charcot and the contralateral foot).

    12 Jul 2010
    Change to IMP label.
    12 Jul 2011
    To amend the duration of treatment phase. To amend the study protocol to clarify that the renal function will be assessed by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) AND/OR creatinine clearance To amend the inclusion and exclusion criteria. To amend the visit for the measurement of skin foot temperatures. To amend the protocol to cancel the home visit by the nurse 2 weeks post randomisation. To update the manufacturer site due to change of address
    11 Jul 2014
    To reduce the subject recruitment sample size from 92 to 46. This reduction is due to a slow recruitment process and expiry of available IMP.
