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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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 primary objective of this trial was to evaluate the long-term safety of asenapine in participants diagnosed with Bipolar 1 Disorder. Participants received a fixed dose of asenapine (either 5 or 10 milligram [mg] twice daily [BID]) for 26 weeks.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial 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.
    Background therapy
    This was a long-term extension trial for participants who had completed the 3-week short-term trial P05691. In the previous short-term trial, participants had been randomly assigned to receive a fixed dose of asenapine (either 5 mg or 10 mg BID) or placebo (BID) for 3 weeks.

    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 enrolled in this extension trial PO5692, 1 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.

    Change from Trial P05691 Baseline in Young-Mania Rating Scale (Y-MRS) Total Score at Days 7, 28, 84, 182, and Study Endpoint
    End point description
    Y-MRS consists of responses to the following 11 items: elevated mood, increased motor activity energy, sexual interest, sleep, language-thought disorder, appearance, insight, irritability, speech - rate and amount, content and disruptive-agressive behavior. The scores from the 11 items are summed to give a Total Score ranging from 0 to 60, with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The reported measure is the change from short-term trial baseline (P05691) at each specified visit, analysed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model including fixed effects for treatment and investigative site (or pooled site) and baseline value as a covariate; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was the Full Analysis Set (FAS), defined as all randomized participants from PO5691 who received ≥1 dose of study drug in PO5692 and had ≥1 post-baseline Y-MRS Total Score assessment.

    Percentage of Participants who are Y-MRS Responders at Days 7, 28, 84, 182, and Study Endpoint
    End point description
    A Y-MRS responder was defined as a participant who had a reduction from baseline of at least 50% in the Y-MRS Total Score at a post-baseline assessment. Responder status was assessed relative to the short-term trial baseline (P05691). Y-MRS consists of responses to the following 11 items: elevated mood, increased motor activity energy, sexual interest, sleep, language-thought disorder, appearance, insight, irritability, speech - rate and amount, content and disruptive-aggressive behaviour. The scores from the 11 items are summed to give a Total Score ranging from 0 to 60, with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Population for this analysis was the FAS, defined as all randomized participants from PO5691 who received ≥1 dose of study drug in PO5692 and had ≥1 post-baseline Y-MRS Total Score assessment.

    End point description
    The CGI-BP-S is a score that measures the severity of overall bipolar illness. The score ranges on a scale from 1 to 7, where 1 is normal, and 7 is very severely ill. The reported measure is the change from short-term trial baseline (P05691) at each specified visit, analysed using an ANCOVA model including fixed effects for treatment and investigative site (or pooled site) and baseline value as a covariate; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. Population for this analysis was the FAS, defined as all randomized participants from PO5691 who received ≥1 dose of study drug in PO5692 and had ≥1 post-baseline Y-MRS Total Score assessment.

    End point description
    A CGI-BP-I (Overall Bipolar Illness) responder was defined as a participant who had a score of 3 (minimally improved) or lower at a post-baseline assessment. Responder status was assessed relative to the short-term trial baseline (P05691). The CGI-BP-I (Overall Bipolar Illness) is a score on a 7-point scale for assessing the change from preceding phase of overall symptoms of bipolar disorder during the treatment of an acute episode or in longer term illness prophylaxis. Compared to the baseline, the CGI-BP-I overall score ranges from 1 = very much improved since initiating treatment, to 7 = very much worse since initiating treatment. Population for this analysis was the FAS, defined as all randomized participants from PO5691 who received ≥1 dose of study drug in PO5692 and had ≥1 post-baseline Y-MRS Total Score assessment.

    PANSS Marder Factor Hostility/Excitement Symptom Score at Days 7, 182, and Study Endpoint
    End point description
    The PANSS Marder Factor Hostility/Excitement symptom score measures symptoms of schizophrenia and consists of responses to 4 items (P4,P7,G8,G14). Responses to each item range from 1 = absence of symptom, to 7 = most extreme symptoms. The PANSS Marder Factor Hostility/Excitement symptom score sums the score from all 4 items and ranges from 4 to 28, with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Population for this analysis was the FAS, defined as all randomized participants from PO5691 who received ≥1 dose of study drug in PO5692 and had ≥1 post-baseline Y-MRS Total Score assessment.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    10 Aug 2011
    • Text regarding drug-induced liver injury (as a closely monitored event [CME]) was revised based on latest guidance of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). • A new CME of 'suicidal ideation and/or behaviour' was added. • The SAE section was updated to include 'cancer' as SAE outcome #6. • The urinalysis tests listed as procedures for safety assessments was revised. • “Incidents associated with the device” was deleted from the list of events requiring expedited reporting of safety observations by the investigator to the sponsor since this was not relevant to the trial. • Sections in the protocol relating to medication error, potential medication error, and incident were deleted.
    10 Oct 2011
    • A new CME of 'drug hypersensitivity reactions' was added. • Text relating to the monitoring of liver enzymes was updated to be consistent with FDA Drug Induced Liver Injury guidance. • “Antiemetics containing dopamine agonists” was corrected to “Antiemetics containing dopamine antagonists” in Table 2 of the protocol which described medications, supplements and other substances and treatments prohibited during treatment with trial medication.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
