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

    A.3Full title of the trial
    Trial consisting of an 8-week double-blind placebo-controlled part to evaluate efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of prucalopride in paediatric subjects with functional constipation, aged ≥6 months to <18 years, followed by a 16-week open-label comparator (PEG) controlled part, to document safety and tolerability up to 24 weeks
    Studio che prevede una fase della durata di 8 settimane, in doppio cieco, controllata con placebo, mirata a valutare l`™efficacia, la sicurezza e la farmacocinetica del prucalopride nei soggetti pediatrici affetti da stipsi funzionale, in eta' compresa tra `6 mesi e <18 anni, seguita da una fase di confronto con controllo attivo (PEG) della durata di 16 settimane, in aperto, mirata a documentarne la sicurezza e la tollerabilita' a 24 settimane.

    Trial consisting of an 8-week part to evaluate potency, side effects,
    tolerability and blood levels of prucalopride in children with functional

    la valutazione dell’efficacia del prucalopride rispetto al placebo per il trattamento di stipsi funzionale in una popolazione pediatrica di eta' compresa tra ≥6 mesi e &lt;18 anni.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1. Investigation of the individual symptoms defined by the Rome III criteria3: bowel frequency, faecal incontinence, retentive posturing or excessive volitional stool retention, defecation pain, stool consistency, occurrence of large diameter stools. In addition use of rescue medication, abdominal pain and toilet training*. 2.

Safety and tolerability: evaluation of prucalopride treatment up to 24 weeks. *Only for older children after acquisition of toileting skills (as standard of care).
    1. Analisi dei sintomi individuali definiti dai criteri di Roma IIIError! Reference source not found.: frequenza di defecazione, incontinenza fecale, postura ritentiva o eccessiva ritenzione fecale volontaria, defecazione dolorosa, consistenza fecale, eventi di feci di grosso diametro. Inoltre, uso di un farmaco di soccorso, dolore addominale ed educazione all’uso della toilette*. 2. Farmacocinetica: raccolta sporadica di campioni ematici a dose singola e condizioni stabili per consentire l’elaborazione del modello della farmacocinetica di popolazione. 3.

    1. Soggetti pediatrici di sesso maschile e femminile di eta' compresa tra ≥6 mesi e &lt;18 anni 2. Soggetti con una diagnosi confermata di stipsi funzionale, definita dai criteri di Roma III come segue: I soggetti devono essere caratterizzati da ≤2 defecazioni‡ spontanee a settimana, oltre che da almeno 1 dei 5 seguenti sintomi nel corso del mese (per soggetti &lt;4 anni) o dei due mesi (per soggetti ≥4 anni di eta') precedenti la selezione: 1) almeno un episodio di incontinenza fecale a settimana (nei soggetti in grado di usare la toilette), 2) anamnesi di postura ritentiva o eccessiva ritenzione fecale volontaria, 3) anamnesi di defecazioni (BM, bowel movements) dolorose o di feci dure, 4) presenza di consistente massa fecale nel retto e 5) anamnesi di feci di grosso diametro. 3. I soggetti e/o il/i genitore/i, o i relativi rappresentanti legali, acconsentono alla sospensione dell’assunzione di lassativi e al ricorso al farmaco di soccorso nel rispetto della regola di soccorso. 4. I soggetti e/o il/i genitore/i, o i relativi legali, acconsentono alla sospensione dell’assunzione di farmaci non ammessi. ‡Per defecazione spontanea (SBM, spontaneous bowel movement) si intende la defecazione non indotta da lassativi, vale a dire non preceduta dall’assunzione di un agente lassativo o dal ricorso ad un clistere per un periodo di 24 ore.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Children with underlying GI abnormalities and causes for defecation disorders such as Hirschsprung’s disease, spina bifida occulta, cystic fibrosis, GI malformations, or significant developmental delays that are associated with musculoskeletal or neurological conditions affecting the GI tract. 2. Children who are breast fed. 3. Subjects suffering from secondary causes of chronic constipation, e.g.: Endocrine disorders, Metabolic disorders, Neurological disorders, Organic disorders, Surgery, Hernia, Autoimmune disorders.
    1. Soggetti pediatrici con anomalie del tratto gastrointestinale (GI) in corso e cause di disturbi di defecazione, come la malattia di Hirschsprung, spina bifida occulta, fibrosi cistica, malformazioni del tratto GI o ritardi significativi nello sviluppo associati a condizioni muscoloscheletriche o neurologiche che incidono sul tratto GI. 2. Lattanti. 3. Soggetti interessati da cause secondarie di stipsi cronica, quali: disturbi endocrini, disturbi metabolici, disturbi neurologici, disturbi organici, chirurgia, ernia, disordini autoimmuni.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The proportion of responders, defined as subjects with an average spontaneous‡ defecation frequency of ≥3 times/week AND an average number of ≤ 1 episode of faecal incontinence/2 weeks# (as calculated over week 5 to 8 of the double-blind treatment phase). ‡A spontaneous bowel movement (SBM) is defined as a non-laxative induced BM, i.e. not preceded within a period of 24 hours by the intake of a laxative agent or by the use of an enema. #Faecal incontinence will only be taken into account in children after acquisition of toileting skills.
    La proporzione dei responder, definiti come i soggetti con una frequenza di defecazione spontanea media‡ di ≥3 volte/settimana, E una media di ≤ 1 episodi di incontinenza fecale/2 settimane # (calcolata nelle settimane da 5 ad 8 della fase di trattamento in doppio cieco). ‡Per defecazione spontanea (SBM, spontaneous bowel movement) si intende la defecazione non indotta da lassativi, vale a dire non preceduta dall’assunzione di un agente lassativo o dal ricorso ad un clistere per un periodo di 24 ore. #L’incontinenza fecale sara' presa in considerazione esclusivamente nei pazienti pediatrici in grado di usare la toilette.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    According to the study design, primary endpoint will be evaluated on double-blind placebo controlled data; safety up to 24 weeks will make use of double-blind and open-label data.The first two weeks of the double-blind treatment phase will not be used for the primary efficacy analysis because of a possible effect of the use of an enema or oral laxative agent during run-in to remove the impaction. For evaluation of dose adjustment week 3 and 4 will be used. At the week 4 visit a possible dose adjustment might occur, the endpoint will therefore be determined from week 5 to 8. Analysis including the first weeks will also be performed to evaluate the possible impact.
    sarà valutato sulla base di dati in doppio cieco controllati con placebo;per la sicurezza fino a 24 settimane saranno utilizzati dati in doppio cieco e in aperto.Le prime due settimane della fase di trattamento in doppio cieco non saranno utilizzate per l’analisi dell’efficacia primaria,per un possibile effetto legato all’uso di un clistere o di un agente lassativo per via orale nel periodo dalla fase di run-in alla rimozione dell’occlusione.Per la valutazione dell’adattamento della dose si considereranno le settimane 3 e 4.In occasione della visita prevista alla sett.4,potrebbe aver luogo un possibile adattamento della dose;l’endpoint sarà pertanto determinato dalla sett.a 5 alla 8.Verranno eseguite anche analisi che includono le prime settimane, per valutare l'impatto
