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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of AFQ056 in patients with PD-LID as assessed by •Incidence and severity of adverse events and serious adverse events •Changes in vital signs, laboratory assessments, and ECGs •Changes in underlying symptoms of PD as measured by the UPDRS (Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale) part III (Motor Examination) and AEs potentially related to an exacerbation of the movement disorder of PD
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    05 Jun 2012
    The protocol was amended to allow concomitant treatment with amantadine and to collect long-term safety and safety data on concomitant amantadine and AFQ056 in this patient population. Amantadine was frequently used to treat LIDs and permitting concomitant treatment with AFQ056 may provide additional treatment options for these patients. AEs associated with amantadine are similar to AFQ056 (e.g. dizziness, hallucinations, fatigue), and concomitant administration with AFQ056 may increase the likelihood of these AEs. However, these events were expected to be transient and reversible. In addition, the amended protocol, in line with the FDA Guidance on the prospective suicidality assessment in clinical trials, required the C-SSRS to be assessed at every postbaseline visit, including unscheduled visits.

    Interruptions (globally)
    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
