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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Study SPD489-404 enrolled subjects from 3 antecedent studies (SPD489-317, SPD489-325, and SPD489-326), or directly enrolled. Of 348 subjects screened, 314 subjects were enrolled and treated.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    At optimization period,subjects initiated SPD489 at 30 mg and dose was titrated until acceptable response(30% reduction from baseline in ADHD Rating Scale-IV total score, clinical global impression-improvement[CGI-I]score of 1 or 2 with tolerable side effects)was achieved.Maximum dose was 70 mg.Dose adjustments were done in dose maintenance period.

    Clinical Global Impressions – Severity of Illness (CGI-S) Rating
    The Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Scale permits a global evaluation of the subject’s severity and improvement over time. This assessment will help guide the clinician on dosing adjustments. The CGI has been used extensively in clinical studies of ADHD. CGI-S was a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill subjects), evaluated by the Investigator.

Each item was scored from a range of 0 (reflecting no symptoms) to 3 (reflecting severe symptoms) with total scores ranging from 0-54. The 18 items were grouped into 2 sub-scales: hyperactivity/impulsivity and inattention. Inattention subscale score consisted of odd number items 1-17 with scores ranging from 0 to 27. Higher score indicated worse symptom.

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. TEAEs were defined as AEs/SAEs that started or worsened after the study drug treatment up to follow-up visit (Week 108).

    The BPRS-C was designed to provide a characterization of the child and adolescent psychopathology, was used to monitor subject safety. The BPRS-C assessed 7 independent factors (3 items each), for a total of 21 items that represented behavioural disorders, depression, thinking disturbance, psychomotor excitation, withdrawal retardation, anxiety, and organicity. Each item was rated using a 7-point scale including 0 (not present), 1 (very mild), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), 4 (moderately severe), 5 (severe), and 6 (extremely severe). Total score is the sum of each item score; range from 0 to 126. Higher score indicated worse psychology.

    Number of Subjects With Clinical Global Impression-Global Improvement (CGI-I) at Last On-treatment Assessment (LOTA)
    End point description
    The Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Scale permits a global evaluation of the subject’s severity and improvement over time. This assessment will help guide the clinician on dosing adjustments. The CGI has been used extensively in clinical studies of ADHD. CGI-I was a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse), evaluated by the Investigator.

    Amendment
    04 Nov 2011
    1. Emergency contact information was updated 2. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were updated primarily to simplify subject inclusion with regard to their involvement in previous SPD489 clinical studies 3. Subjects with age >=18 years, were included at screening and blood pressure criteria for subjects with >=18 years at study entry were added 4. Excluded subjects whose symptoms were well-controlled on their currently prescribed ADHD medication with acceptable tolerability 5. 12-lead ECG was added at Visit 4 6. Permitted use of oral corticosteroids was defined 7. Restriction for montelukast sodium widened to include all leukotriene antagonists 8. Ferritin was added to biochemistry panel 9. Growth sub-section was added in accordance with primary objective.
