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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether the addition of LABA to ICS therapy (FSC) is non-inferior to ICS therapy alone (FP) in terms of the risk of serious asthma related events (asthma-related hospitalization, endotracheal intubation, and death).
    El objetivo principal del estudio es evaluar si la adición de LABA a la terapia con ICS (FSC) no es inferior a la terapia con ICS solamente (FP) en términos de riesgo de eventos graves relacionados con el asma (hospitalización, intubación endotraqueal y muerte relacionadas con el asma).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    A secondary objective of the study is to evaluate whether the addition of LABA to ICS therapy (FSC) is superior to ICS therapy alone (FP) in terms of measures of efficacy.
    El objetivo secundario del estudio es evaluar si la adición de LABA a la terapia con ICS (FSC) es superior a la terapia con ICS solamente (FP) en términos de medidas de eficacia.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Informed Consent:
    - The subject and/or the subject?s legal guardian (if applicable) must provide written informed assent/consent to take part in the study.
    - Subjects and/or their legal guardians (if applicable) understand that they must comply with study treatment and study assessments including recording of daily information regarding their asthma status and attend scheduled study visits, and be accessible by telephone.
    2. Subject: 12 years of age and older.
    3. Gender: Male or female.
    4. Asthma Diagnosis: Persistent asthma, defined by national and international asthma guidelines for at least 1 year prior to study enrolment. If the subject is naïve to the study site, the diagnosis of asthma must be confirmed by subject history.
    5. PEF: A clinic PEF>/=50% of predicted normal value. Percent predicted PEF values must be calculated using NHANES III with relevant equations that adjust for race and national origin.
    6. Current Asthma Therapy: Subjects must be appropriately using one of the following for the treatment of asthma and meet the criteria outlined below:
    - ICS or ICS with one or more adjunctive therapies (LABA, LTRA or theophylline) for at least 4 weeks prior to randomization (see Table 1: for ICS dose equivalents). Any subject maintained on a stable high dose ICS or stable high dose ICS with one or more adjunctive therapies (LABA, LTRA or theophylline) must have an ACQ-6 < 1.5 (i.e., controlled) at Visit 1.
    - Leukotriene receptor antagonist (i.e. LTRAs such as montelukast, zafirlukast, or pranlukast) OR theophylline as monotherapy at a stable dose for at least 4 weeks
    prior to randomization. Subjects on LTRAs or theophylline are eligible only if they record an ACQ-6 score of >/= 1.5 (i.e. not well controlled) and in the Investigator?s clinical judgement, the subject?s asthma severity could justify treatment with ICS or ICS + LABA.
