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
    To compare the steady state area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to time 24 hours (AUC0-24h) of tacrolimus for tacrolimus prolonged release (Advagraf) with that of tacrolimus (Prograf) in stable pediatric allograft recipients after 1:1 (mg:mg) conversion from Prograf to Advagraf.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This clinical study was written, conducted and reported in accordance with the protocol, International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines, and applicable local regulations, including the European Directive 2001/20/EC, on the protection of human rights, and with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. Astellas ensures that the use and disclosure of protected health information (PHI) obtained during a research study complies with the fed ral, national and/or regional legislation related to the privacy and protection of personal information.
    Background therapy
    This study is composed of 3 parts: Part A (Pharmacokinetics), Part B (Long-term follow-up) and Part C (Continuation of long-term follow-up until participants discontinued treatment or received the approved treatment). After enrollment, participants entered a 30-day screening period in Part A of the study during which time they were maintained on their routine twice daily tacrolimus (commercial Prograf) based immunosuppressive regimen, as determined by the Investigator and as supplied by the local hospital pharmacy.

    Severity of Biopsy Proven Acute Rejection Episodes
    End point description
    The severity of BPARs was categorized with specific criteria by organ: For kidney transplant participants, according to Banff ‘97 Diagnostic categories for renal allograft biopsies – Banff ’07 update (Acute antibody-mediated rejection I, II, and III, Acute T cell mediated rejection IA, IB, IIA, IIB and III); for liver transplant participants, according to 1997 Banff Schema for grading of Liver Allograft Rejection (mild, moderate, severe or indeterminate/borderline); for heart, according to Standardized Nomenclature of the International Society of Heart and Lung Transplantation (mild, moderate, severe). The analysis population was the modified Full Analysis Set (mFAS), which consisted of all participants who received at least 1 dose of tacrolimus prolonged release study drug.

    End point description
    Graft survival was defined as the time from the first dose of tacrolimus as study drug to graft loss. Graft loss was defined as retransplantation, nephrectomy (in case of kidney transplantation), death or dialysis (in case of kidney transplantation) ongoing at end of study or at discontinuation, unless superseded by follow-up information. Since no participants experienced graft loss during the study, survival analysis was not conducted.

    End point description
    Efficacy failure was defined as the composite of the following: death, graft loss, BPAR and unknown outcome. A participant was considered to have an unknown outcome if he/she did not have the event of interest (death, graft loss, BPAR) or did not have a study assessment prior to day 335.
