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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    Safety concerning renal functions and cardiovascular functions as well as the occurrence of severe adverse events. Further primary objective is efficacy of the treatment regarding the recovery of the lungs measured as ventilator free days.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Patients were closely monitored by the treating staff with regard to safety during the course of the study. In addition to the detection of adverse events, this included the collection of the following parameters on the CRF: hemodynamic parameters, organ dysfunction, safety labor parameters.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Between 10.05.2012 and 28.10.2015 61 patients were randomised. Three patients had to be excluded since the informed consent process failed. N=58 patients constitute the full analysis set. All these patients were followed up until death or day 60. Accrual was slower than anticipated. The initially targeted sample size of 210 was not attainable.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    All patients diagnosed with with acute lung failure (ALI/ARDS) in participating sites included if they meet all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria applied.

    Several patients received additional, oral ACE Inhibitors violating the protocol. 7 patients in the Placebo arm and 5 patients in the Enalaprilat arm were treated with additional oral ACE Inhibitors. Duration of treatment with additional ACE inhibitor was 13.7±10.9 days in the Placebo and 4.6±7 days in the Enalaprilat arms (p=0.108). Since these numbers are not negligible these patients are excluded in a per-protocol sensitivity analysis.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    25 Jul 2012
    Exclusion criteria regarding contraindication for therapy to be used are changed: Exclusion criteria "severe renal dysfunction" and "patients with renal replacement therapy" are deleted.
    09 Oct 2013
    more precise definition of inclusion and exclusion criteria: 1. Presence of invasive mechanical ventilation and start of ventilation no longer than 60 hours ago (previously 48 hours) 2. Age at least 18 years (previously: age between 18 until 80 years) 3. patients a. after bone marrow or stem cell transplantation within the last 12 months b. after lung transplantation (previously: Patients after bone marrow, stem cell or lung transplantation)
    05 Feb 2015
    Minor adjustments to the trial protocol: for example: The project accompanying the investigation of the ACE gene polymorphism of the study has so far not been sufficiently distinguished from the study question in the trial protocol. Duration of the trial customized, because the recruitment was delayed and was expected to end in late 2015 following the recruitment of 60 patients as recommended by the DMC. Supplementing the safety endpoint: Change in renal function (CREA) by day 28

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    The recruitment was delayed and was expected to end in late 2015 following the recruitment of 60 patients (planned: 210 patients) as recommended by the DMC.
