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.

    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    A subject will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if all of the following criteria apply:
    1. Age & Gender: Male or female between 18 and 75 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
    2. Histological diagnosis: Have new clinical diagnosis of IMN, as verified by biopsy (either by light microscope with immuno-fluorescence, or by electron microscope) in the last 3 years (biopsy results should be available for independent evaluation).
    3. Proteinuria: Have clinically active disease (nephrotic range proteinuria) for at least 3 months prior to screening and no improvement (<30% reduction), despite supportive therapy (which must include maximal tolerated doses of ACE inhibitor or
    ARB unless contraindicated, and may include statins, diuretics, dietary salt restriction). During screening proteinuria must be >400mg/mmol by uPCR (equates to >4.0g per 24 h) as measured from a 24 h urine collection and/or spot urine sample (early morning where possible) on 2 occasions at least 7 days apart.
    4. Female Subjects: A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or nursing and at least one of the following conditions apply:
    a. Non-childbearing potential defined as pre-menopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea [in questionable cases a blood sample with
    simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) > 40 MlU/mL and estradiol < 40 pg/mL (<147 pmol/L) is confirmatory]. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the contraception methods in Section 8.1 if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow
    confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrolment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2-4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method.
    b. Child-bearing potential and agrees to use one of the contraception methods listed in Section 8.1 for an appropriate period of time (as determined by the product label or investigator) prior to the start of dosing to sufficiently minimise the risk
    of pregnancy at that point. Female subjects must agree to use contraception until 16 weeks after the last dose.
    French subjects: In France, a subject will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if either affiliated to or a beneficiary of a social security category.
    Un sujeto sólo será elegible para participar en el estudio si cumple todos los criterios siguientes:
    1. Edad y sexo: Hombres o mujeres de edad comprendida entre 18 y 75 años inclusive en el momento de la firma del consentimiento informado.
    2. Diagnóstico histológico: Nuevo diagnóstico clínico de NMI, verificado mediante biopsia (con microscopio de luz con inmunofluorescencia o con microscopio electrónico) en los 3 últimos años (los resultados de la biopsia deben estar disponibles para una evaluación independiente).
    3. Proteinuria: Los sujetos deben tener enfermedad clínicamente activa (proteinuria en el rango nefrótico) al menos durante 3 meses antes de la selección y sin mejoría (<30% de reducción), a pesar de la terapia de soporte (que debe incluir dosis máximas toleradas de un inhibidor de la ECA o BRA a menos que esté contraindicado, y puede incluir estatinas, diuréticos y restricción de sal de la dieta). Durante la selección la proteinuria debe ser >400 mg/mmol mediante P/Cr en orina (que equivale a >4 g/24h) medido en orina de 24 horas y/o en una muestra de orina aislada (siempre que sea posible de primera hora de la mañana) en 2 ocasiones con un intervalo mínimo de 7 días.
    4. Mujeres: Una mujer será elegible para participar si no está embaraza o en periodo de lactancia y cumple al menos una de las siguientes condiciones:
    a) Mujeres no potencialmente fértiles definidas como, premenopáusicas con ligadura de trompas o histerectomía documentadas; o posmenopáusicas con 12 meses de amenorrea espontánea [en los casos dudosos unos valores en sangre de hormona folículo estimulante (FSH) >40 MUI/mL y de estradiol <40 pg/mL (<147 pmol/L) son confirmatorios]. Las mujeres sometidas a terapia de sustitución hormonal (TSH) y aquellas en las que el estado menopáusico sea dudoso tendrán que utilizar uno de los métodos anticonceptivos que se describen en la Sección 8.1 si desean continuar su TSH durante el estudio. De lo contrario, deben interrumpir la TSH para permitir la conformación del estado posmenopáusico antes del reclutamiento en el estudio. Con la mayoría de las formas de TSH, transcurrirán al menos 2-4 semanas entre el cese del tratamiento y la menstruación; este intervalo depende del tipo y la dosis de la TSH. Tras la confirmación de su estado posmenopáusico, podrán reanudar su TSH durante el estudio sin tener que utilizar ningún método anticonceptivo.
    b) Mujeres potencialmente fértiles y que estén de acuerdo en utilizar uno de los métodos anticonceptivos descritos en la Sección 8.1 durante un periodo de tiempo apropiado (determinado por la ficha técnica del producto y el investigador) antes de comenzar la administración del tratamiento del estudio para minimizar suficientemente el riesgo de embarazo en ese momento. Las mujeres deben estar de acuerdo en utilizar anticonceptivos hasta 16 semanas después de la última dosis.
    Sujetos franceses: En Francia, un sujeto sólo será elegible para participar en este estudio si está afiliado o es beneficiario de una categoría de la seguridad social.

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    Subjects will not receive any additional treatment from GSK after completion of the study because other treatment options are available and for subjects in remission, the value of belimumab maintenance therapy is unclear. Equally for subjects who have not achieved remission with belimumab by two years, the value of extending therapy beyond two years is unclear. The investigator is responsible for ensuring that consideration has been given to the poststudy care of the patient?s medical condition.
    Los sujetos no recibirán tratamiento adicional de GSK después de completar el estudio porque existen otras opciones de tratamiento y en los sujetos en remisión, no está claro el valor de la terapia de mantenimiento con belimumab. Los sujetos que no hayan alcanzado una remisión con belimumab en 2 años, no está claro el valor de prolongar el tratamiento. El investigador tiene que asegurarse de que se ha considerado el tratamiento posterior al estudio del paciente, aunque GSK no sea el proveedor.
