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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    • The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two dose levels of pregabalin (Level 1 - 2.5 mg/kg/day; max 150 mg/day and Level 2 - 10 mg/kg/day; max 600 mg/day) compared to placebo as an adjunctive treatment in reducing the frequency of partial onset seizures in pediatric subjects 4 to 16 years of age.
    • L'obiettivo primario di questo studio è la valutazione dell'efficacia di due livelli di dose di pregabalin (livello 1: 2,5 mg/kg/giorno; massimo 150 mg/giorno e livello 2: 10 mg/kg/giorno; massimo 600 mg/giorno) rispetto al placebo come terapia aggiuntiva per ridurre la frequenza delle crisi epilettiche a insorgenza parziale in pazienti pediatrici di età compresa tra 4 e 16 anni.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    •To characterize the efficacy of pregabalin vs. placebo on the frequency of partial onset seizures as determined by responder rate in pediatric subjects 4 to 16 years of age. •To assess the safety and tolerability of pregabalin in pediatric subjects 4 to 16 years of age with partial onset seizures.
    •Caratterizzare l'efficacia di pregabalin rispetto al placebo in termini di frequenza delle crisi epilettiche a insorgenza parziale, determinata in funzione del tasso di risposta in pazienti pediatrici di età compresa tra 4 e 16 anni. •Valutare la sicurezza e la tollerabilità di pregabalin in pazienti pediatrici di età compresa tra 4 e 16 anni con crisi epilettiche a insorgenza parziale.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Subject eligibility should be reviewed and documented by an appropriately qualified member of the investigator’s study team before subjects are included in the study. Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for enrollment into the study: 1. Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the subject and/or parent/legally acceptable representative has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study. When there are two parents or two legally acceptable representatives, consent should be obtained from both of the child’s parents/legal representatives if present at the meeting where the informed consent document is signed. Subject to local regulations whenever the minor is able to give assent, the minor’s assent must also be obtained. 2. Subjects and/or parent(s)/legally acceptable representative who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures. 3. Subjects and/or parent(s)/legally acceptable representative must be considered willing and able to complete daily seizure diaries and monitor seizure frequency. 4. Male and female epilepsy subjects, 4 to 16 years of age inclusive on the date of the Screening Visit. 5. Diagnosis of epilepsy with partial onset seizures classified as simple partial, complex partial or partial becoming secondarily generalized, according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE)3 Diagnosis must be established by:  Subject’s history (eg, description of seizures excluding confounding disorders such as pseudoseizures, syncopes etc) family history and neurological exam.  Subjects must have had a contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain and EEG testing within 24 months of the Screening Visit. Results must be consistent with the diagnosis of focal-onset epilepsy and must demonstrate that no abnormality is likely to be progressive.  Confirmation of diagnosis by independent reviewer before randomization. 6. Must have a partial onset seizure frequency of at least 3 seizures per 28-day period prior to screening. Must have a partial onset seizure frequency of >=6 seizures and no continuous 4 week seizure free period during the 8 week baseline phase prior to randomization. 7. Currently receiving a stable dose of 1 to 3 antiepileptic drugs (stable within 28 days prior to screening). Benzodiazepine medication used on a regular basis at a stable dosage will be considered 1 of the concurrent antiepileptic treatments. A previously implanted Vagus nerve stimulator (VNS) for the treatment of epilepsy is allowed and will be considered one of the 3 antiepileptic treatments. 8. A 12-lead ECG at screening without significant abnormal findings as determined by the investigator and confirmed by the Central ECG Reader.
    Prima dell'inclusione nello studio, l'idoneità del paziente deve essere analizzata e documentata da un membro adeguatamente qualificato del team dello sperimentatore dello studio. Per essere idonei all'arruolamento nello studio, i pazienti devono soddisfare tutti i seguenti criteri di inclusione: 1. Prova di documento di consenso informato firmato e datato personalmente, che indichi che il paziente e/o un genitore/rappresentante legale è stato informato di tutti gli aspetti pertinenti dello studio. Se all'incontro in cui viene firmato il documento di consenso informato sono presenti due genitori o due rappresentanti legali, il consenso deve essere ottenuto da entrambi i genitori/rappresentanti legali del bambino. Nel rispetto della normativa locale, quando il minore sia in grado di fornire il consenso, dovrà essere ottenuto anche il consenso del minore. 2. Pazienti e/o genitori/rappresentanti legali disposti e in grado di rispettare le visite programmate, il piano di trattamento, gli esami di laboratorio e le altre procedure dello studio. 3. I pazienti e/o genitori/rappresentanti legali devono essere considerati disposti e in grado di compilare i diari giornalieri di annotazione delle crisi convulsive e di monitorare la frequenza delle crisi convulsive. 4.

La diagnosi deve essere stabilita mediante: • Anamnesi del paziente (ad es. descrizione delle crisi convulsive escludendo i disturbi di confondimento, quali pseudo-crisi convulsive, sincopi, ecc.), anamnesi familiare ed esame neurologico. • I pazienti devono essere stati sottoposti a tomografia computerizzata (TC) o a risonanza magnetica (MRI) del cervello con mezzo di contrasto e a EEG nei 24 mesi precedenti alla visita di screening. I risultati devono essere compatibili con la diagnosi di epilessia a insorgenza focale e devono dimostrare l'improbabilità di una natura progressiva delle anomalie. • Conferma della diagnosi da parte di un valutatore indipendente prima della randomizzazione. 6. La frequenza delle crisi epilettiche a insorgenza parziale deve essere di almeno 3 crisi convulsive per periodo di 28 giorni prima dello screening. La frequenza delle crisi epilettiche a insorgenza parziale deve essere &gt;=6 crisi convulsive senza alcun periodo di 4 settimane consecutive libero da crisi convulsive durante la fase basale di 8 settimane prima della randomizzazione. 7. Trattamento attuale con una dose stabile di 1-3 farmaci antiepilettici (stabile nei 28 giorni precedenti allo screening). Una benzodiazepina assunta regolarmente a un dosaggio stabile sarà considerata 1 dei trattamenti antiepilettici concomitanti.
