E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The principal aim of the study is to allow patients to be treated with olesoxime (TRO19622) in an Open Label safety Extension following their participation to a randomised study and to provide additional safety data on olesoxime (TRO 19622). This is a multi-center open-label safety extension study of olesoxime in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis patients treated with riluzole. Each patient will be treated with olesoxime up to a maximum duration of 15 months. |

E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial | |
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Patients must have completed the 18-month safety and efficacy study of TRO19622 in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) patients treated with riluzole (Protocol TRO19622 CL E Q 1015-1). • Both the investigator and the patient will decide based on previous good tolerance and other clinical grounds whether or not to participate to the open-label extension. • If patients were on anti-vitamin K during the double-blind period, when entering the open-label extension, coagulation tests should be monitored in exactly the same conditions as if a new anticoagulant treatment was initiated and the dose of anti-vitamin K should be adjusted accordingly(see secti on 8.3.11). • Patients enrolling from this prior safety and efficacy study must: – If female of childbearing age of potential, continue to use adequate birth control methods and have a negative serum pregnancy test at the preceding double-blind protocol termination visit. Male and female partners must agree to use an effective method of birth control during their participation in the trial and for at least 15 days after the last IMP dose. Both partners must use reliable methods of contraception with 2 independent methods. The following measures are acceptable: Hormone contraceptives (e.g. oral contraceptives or comparable methods), intrauterine device, condoms with spermicidal coating or in combination with spermicidal creams, total abstinence or sterilisation performed in the past. – Be able to follow the investigator’s instructions and be able to comply with the visit schedule and visit requirements; and – Sign a written informed consent. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Patients may not participate to this study if they have an ongoing, unresolved, clinically significant medical problem (including patients having serious adverse events or non-serious, but medically significant adverse events during the preceding safety and efficacy study that was assessed to be related to the study medication by the investigator)that is on the judgment of the investigator would make it unsafe for the patient to participate in the trial. |
|
E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary outcome measure will be the safety assessment. The safety criteria will be: occurence of Adverse Events, Physical examination, Laboratory tests, vital signs and ECG. |
