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   43850   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of this trial is to assess effect of asenapine 2.5 and 5 mg sublingually twice daily (BID) compared with placebo in treatment of schizophrenia (overall symptoms) as measured by the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Olanzapine administered 15 mg orally once daily (QD) was used as an active control. Primary hypothesis is that at least one of the asenapine doses is superior to placebo in improving schizophrenia symptoms as measured by change from Baseline in PANSS total score at Day 42. The first key secondary hypothesis is that at least one of the asenapine doses is superior to placebo in improving schizophrenia symptoms as measured by change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression Scale-Severity (CGI-S) score at Day 42. The second key secondary hypothesis is that at least one of the asenapine doses is superior to placebo in improving schizophrenia symptoms as measured by rate of PANSS responders (≥30% Reduction From Baseline in PANSS Total Score) at Day 42.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: The participants who started Period 1 are those randomized, 3 of whom did not receive study drug. The participants who started Period 2 are those who received study drug. The baseline demographics table presents data for participants treated, therefore Period 2 was set as the baseline period.

    Notes
    [2] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The worldwide number enrolled in the trial presents participants randomized; 3 of these participants did not receive study drug. The participants who started Period 2 ("baseline period") are those who received study drug. The baseline demographics table presents data for participants treated, therefore Period 2 was set as the baseline period.

    End point description
    The PANSS is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing schizophrenia symptoms. It consists of 3 subscales: positive subscale (7 items), negative subscale (7 items), and general psychopathology subscale (16 items). For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The PANSS total score for each participant was sum of the rating assigned to each of the 30 PANSS items, and ranged from 30 to 210 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The reported measure is the change from baseline at Day 42; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Percentage of Participants Who Are PANSS Responders (≥30% Reduction From Baseline in PANSS Total Score) at Day 42
    End point description
    Rate of PANSS responders at Day 42 is a Key Secondary Outcome Measure. A PANSS responder was defined as a participant who had a reduction from baseline of at least 30% in the PANSS total score at a post-baseline assessment. The PANSS is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing schizophrenia symptoms. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The Total score is the sum of the ratings for the individual items, and ranged from 30 to 210 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Missing data were imputed by Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Percentage of Participants Who Are PANSS Responders (≥30% Reduction From Baseline in PANSS Total Score) at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35
    End point description
    A PANSS responder was defined as a participant who had a reduction from baseline of at least 30% in the PANSS total score at a post-baseline assessment. The PANSS is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing schizophrenia symptoms. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The Total score is the sum of the ratings for the individual items, and ranged from 30 to 210 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Missing data were imputed by LOCF. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    End point description
    A CGI-I responder was defined as a participant who had a CGI-I score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) at a post-baseline assessment. CGI-I is a 7-point scale for assessing the global improvement of the participant’s illness relative to baseline, with ratings from 1=very much improved to 7=very much worse. Missing data were imputed by LOCF. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Negative Subscale Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 7 items of the negative subscale of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Negative symptoms represent a diminution or loss of normal functions (e.g., emotional withdrawal). For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS negative subscale score for each participant was sum of the rating assigned to each of the 7 subscale items, and ranged from 7 to 49 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Positive Subscale Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 7 items of the positive subscale of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Positive symptoms refer to an excess or distortion of normal mental status (e.g., delusions). For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS positive subscale score for each participant was sum of the rating assigned to each of the 7 subscale items, and ranged from 7 to 49 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS General Psychopathology Subscale Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 16 items of the general psychopathology subscale of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess the symptoms of schizophrenia. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The PANSS general psychopathology subscale score for each participant was calculated as the sum of the rating assigned to each of the 16 subscale items, and ranged from 16 to 112 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The reported measure is the change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Positive Symptom Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 8 items of the Marder positive symptom factor of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Marder factors are a modified grouping of the 30 PANSS items. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS Marder factor positive symptom score for each participant was sum of rating assigned to each of the 8 applicable Marder factor items, and ranged from 8 to 56 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Negative Symptom Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 7 items of the Marder negative symptoms factor of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Marder factors are a modified grouping of the 30 PANSS items. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS Marder factor negative symptom score for each participant was sum of the rating assigned to each of the 7 applicable Marder factor items, and ranged from 7 to 49 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Disorganized Thought Symptom Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 7 items of the Marder disorganized thoughts factor of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Marder factors are a modified grouping of the 30 PANSS items. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS Marder factor disorganized thought symptom score for each participant was sum of rating assigned to each of the 7 applicable Marder factor items, and ranged from 7 to 49 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Hostility/Excitement Symptom Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 4 items of the Marder hostility/excitement factor of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Marder factors are a modified grouping of the 30 PANSS items. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS Marder factor hostility/excitement symptom score for each participant was sum of rating assigned to each of the 4 applicable Marder factor items, and ranged from 4 to 28 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.

    Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Anxiety/Depression Symptom Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42
    End point description
    This measure reports results for the 4 items of the Marder anxiety/depression factor of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Marder factors are a modified grouping of the 30 PANSS items. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS Marder factor anxiety/depression symptom score for each participant was sum of rating assigned to each of the 4 applicable Marder factor items, and ranged from 4 to 28 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was FAS, defined as randomized participants who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and ≥1 post-baseline PANSS Total Score.
