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   43850   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    The primary objective for this study is to compare the safety, tolerability and the analgesic efficacy of ABT-110 administered subcutaneously (SC) once every 8 weeks (q8w) for a total of two doses to placebo in subjects with chronic low back pain (CLBP). One subject was enrolled into the study prior to the study being prematurely discontinued by the Sponsor based on a strategic business decision. No statistical, pharmacokinetic or pharmacogenetic analyses were performed. Safety data are provided for the 1 subject who received placebo.

    Date
    Amendment
    27 Apr 2012
    To change the low end of the tested dose range from 3 mg to 5 mg ABT-110 and to decrease the upper dose limit from 40 mg to 30 mg ABT-110; add additional post study drug administration monitoring; update safety and pharmacokinetic information because data was no longer preliminary; add description of study's anticipated benefits and risks; decrease the sample size from 390 (65 per arm) to 330 (55 per arm); revise inclusion and exclusion criteria to clarify criterion for duration of history of chronic low back pain and therapeutic dosing, add upper limit for BMI, increase threshold score for Mini-Mental Status Examination score, and exclude subjects with clinically significant allergy to medications used in study, history of rapidly progressive osteoarthritis, scoliosis surgery, osteoarthritis, or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, or coronary artery bypass graft; provide additional detail regarding exclusionary treatment with corticosteroids, prohibited medications, or prior biologic therapy; clarify study procedures; clarify timing of efficacy measures; clarify role of the independent data monitoring committee; update adverse event definitions and management; and add interim efficacy and pharmacokinetic analyses.
