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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    Estimer l’efficacité à 12 heures de Versatis® 5% sur la réduction des douleurs neuropathiques pures ou mixtes et sur la réduction des douleurs de crises vaso-occlusives drépanocytaires, localisées, superficielles, chez l’enfant, l’adolescent et le jeune adulte Proportion of patients with a significant pain score decrease i.e. difference in VAS pain score of at least two points between t0 and t12 (12h-VAS ≥2p-decrease) during at least two out of the three consecutive days of treatment.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Within the framework of this study, the patients included will be followed according to the recommendations for the management of pain. The pain score was assessed by a 100 mm-Visual Analogue Score (VAS) self-assessment graduated from 0 (no pain) to 10 (maximal pain) at patch application (t0), at 6 hours (t6), and at 12 hours (t12) post application during three consecutive days. The analgesic treatments prescribed before the inclusion was not changed during the three days of evaluation unless absolutely required. In case of significant increase in pain during the three days (i.e. at least two points increasing in VAS score), the use of additional level II or level III analgesics, antiepileptics, or antidepressants was allowed and collected.

    The lidocaine 5% patches (Versatis®, Grünenthal GmbH, Aachen, Germany) for cutaneous application consists of a hydrogel base stuck to a polyethylene terephthalate support covered with a protective film of polyethylene terephthalate.22 Each plaster, supplied in 10 by 14cm size and containing 700 mg of lidocaine, was applied to the painful area (the most painful one in case of several painful areas) for 12 hours per day (12 hours application then 12 hours without patch), and for at least three consecutive days. The patch was applied on intact skin, not irritated, not injured, to more thoroughly cover the painful area with the number of patches defined according to the size of the painful area and the patient's body surface

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No possibility of size the type of statistical analyse : the sample size was calculated using the Fleming-A'hern single-stage design23 assuming that the proportion of patients with a 12h-VAS ≥2p-decrease during at least two of the three consecutive days following patch application should result in at least 60%. A rate of 60% or less would mean that the benefit in pain relief is not confirmed. Assuming a 5% one-sided alpha and 85% power, 39 patients had to be enrolled. A minimum of 29 successes w

    The investigator collects (spontaneous patient report or questionning) and immediately notifies the sponsor of all SAEs, in a written report, wether or not theay are deemed to be attributable to research and wich occur during the study
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    3 (7.7%, 95%CI [1.6%-20.9%]) patients experienced at least one grade 1 or 2 adverse event with only two events possibly related to the patch application (one localized erythema and one pruritus at the application site). One generalized skin eruption was recorded but assessed as unlikely related to treatment. No serious adverse event was observed.
