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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    Primary: Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in Mean Daily Pain (MDP)

    Close Top of page
    End point title
    Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in Mean Daily Pain (MDP)
    End point description
    The MDP is the mean of the 7 daily consecutive pain measurements, i.e. the mean of the 7 daily consecutive scores of item 4 of the Female GenitoUrinary Pain Index (F-GUPI)-24h, recorded in the last week prior to Baseline and Week 12. The F-GUPI-24h is a validated instrument for evaluating symptoms of BPS/IC. Item 4 in the F-GUPI-24h rates the average pain over the past 24 hours on an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine). This endpoint was analyzed using a Bayesian longitudinal dose-response model. In the table below, the row for "arithmetic mean (standard deviation)" is actually summarizing the posterior mean change from Baseline to end of treatment (EoT) and corresponding standard deviation. For subjects who withdrew due to an adverse event, the change from baseline to EoT in MDP score was set to 0.

    Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in F-GUPI Total Score
    End point description
    The Female GenitoUrinary Pain Index (F-GUPI) is a validated instrument used to assess symptoms in women with genitourinary pain complaints. The F-GUPI combines aspects of the 3 most important symptom domains of BPS/IC with a recall period of one week: - Pain subscale: comprises 4 questions (Items 1 to 4) on location, symptomatology, frequency and severity; - Voiding problems/Urinary subscale: comprises 2 questions (Items 5 and 6) on irritative and obstructive symptoms; - Effects on the quality of life (QoL): comprises 3 questions (Items 7 to 9) on impact. The F-GUPI Total score ranges from 0 to 45 with higher scores indicating increasing disease activity. This endpoint was analyzed using a Bayesian longitudinal dose-response model. In the table below, the data are summarizing the posterior mean change from Baseline to EoT and corresponding standard deviation. For subjects who withdrew due to an adverse event, the change from baseline to EoT was set to 0.

    Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in F-GUPI Pain Domain Score
    End point description
    The Female GenitoUrinary Pain Index (F-GUPI) is a validated instrument used to assess the degree of symptoms in women with genitourinary pain complaints. The pain subscale comprises 4 questions (Items 1 to 4) on location, symptomatology, frequency and severity, with a recall period of one week. The pain subscale score ranges from 0 to 23 where higher scores indicate increasing pain. Least squares (LS) means were generated from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment group and country as factors and the Baseline value as a covariate. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) imputation was used; for subjects who withdrew due to an adverse event, change from baseline to EoT was set to 0.

    Percentage of Subjects with at Least 7 Points Decrease in F-GUPI Total Score at Each Visit
    End point description
    The Female GenitoUrinary Pain Index (F-GUPI) is a validated instrument used to assess symptoms in women with genitourinary pain complaints. The F-GUPI combines aspects of the 3 most important symptom domains of BPS/IC with a recall period of one week: - Pain subscale: comprises 4 questions (Items 1 to 4) on location, symptomatology, frequency and severity; - Voiding problems/Urinary subscale: comprises 2 questions (Items 5 and 6) on irritative and obstructive symptoms; - Effects on the quality of life (QoL): comprises 3 questions (Items 7 to 9) on impact. The F-GUPI Total score ranges from 0 to 45 with higher scores indicating increasing disease activity. This endpoint was analysed using the full analysis set with no imputation for missing data, except for End of Treatment where LOCF was used. For subjects who withdrew due to an AE, change from Baseline to EoT value is set equal to 0.

    Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in Short Form of the McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) Total Score
    End point description
    The short form of the McGill pain questionnaire (SF-MPQ) asks about the sensory, affective and evaluative dimensions of pain experience. Higher scores on the SF-MPQ are indicative of more severe disease. The sensory and affective dimensions of the SF-MPQ ask the respondent how each of a set of different adjectives describe their pain over the previous week. Responses to each question range from 0 (None) to 3 (Severe). The sum of the responses within each dimension give the SF-MPQ Sensory score (ranging from 0 to 33) and the SF-MPQ Affective score (ranging from 0 to 12). These sum of these two scores gives the SF-MPQ Total score. This endpoint was analysed using the full analysis set; LOCF imputation was used.

    Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) Total Score
    End point description
    Sexual functioning was assessed using the FSFI, a validated 19-item, self-administered questionnaire from which scores for assessing six key domains of sexual function and satisfaction can be derived. Each of the 19 items ranges from 0 or 1 (a score of 0 in some questions indicates that no sexual activity occurred in the previous month) up to a maximum of 5. The sum of the responses within each domain are added together and multiplied by a domain factor to give a domain score which can vary up to a maximum value of 6. The FSFI Total score is then calculated as the sum of the six separate domains and ranges from 2 to 36. A FSFI total score of less than or equal to 26.55 has been classified as “Female sexual Dysfunction”. This endpoint was analysed using the full analysis set; LOCF imputation was used.

    Change from Baseline to Each Visit in Mean Number of Urgency Episodes per 24 Hours
    End point description
    Urgency is defined as the complaint of a sudden, compelling desire to pass urine, which is difficult to defer. Each episode was graded using the following 5 point scale based on Patient Perception of Intensity of Urgency Scale (PPIUS): 0 = No urgency; 1 = Mild urgency, could postpone voiding as long as necessary; 2 = Moderate urgency, could postpone voiding for a short time; 3 = Severe urgency, could not postpone voiding, had to rush to the toilet; 4 = Urge incontinence, leaked before arriving to the toilet. The mean number of urgency episodes per 24 hours was derived from the average number of times a subject recorded an urgency episode of severity of 3 or 4 per day during the 3-day micturition diary period. This endpoint was analysed using the full analysis set with no imputation for missing data, except for End of Treatment where LOCF was used.

    Each episode was graded using the following 5 point scale based on Patient Perception of Intensity of Urgency Scale (PPIUS): 0 = No urgency; 1 = Mild urgency, could postpone voiding as long as necessary; 2 = Moderate urgency, could postpone voiding for a short while; 3 = Severe urgency, could not postpone voiding, but had to rush to the toilet in order not to wet myself; 4 = Urge incontinence, leaked before arriving to the toilet. The mean level of urgency was derived from the average severity grade recorded by the subject for each micturition, with or without incontinence, during the 3-day micturition diary period. This endpoint was analysed using the full analysis set with no imputation for missing data, except for End of Treatment where LOCF was used. LS means were generated from an ANCOVA model with treatment group and country as factors and the Baseline value as a covariate.

    Change from Baseline to Each Visit in Total Urgency Score (TUS) per 24 Hours
    End point description
    The total urgency score (TUS) per 24 hours is the sum of the PPIUS urgency gradings from all valid diary days recorded by the subject in the 3 days prior to each visit in the micturition diary divided by the number of valid days. Each episode was graded using the following 5 point scale based on Patient Perception of Intensity of Urgency Scale (PPIUS): 0 = No urgency; 1 = Mild urgency, could postpone voiding as long as necessary; 2 = Moderate urgency, could postpone voiding for a short while; 3 = Severe urgency, could not postpone voiding, but had to rush to the toilet in order not to wet myself; 4 = Urge incontinence, leaked before arriving to the toilet.

    Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in Profile of Mood States (POMS) Total Mood Disturbance Score
    End point description
    Psychotropic effects emerging during the study were measured using the POMS questionnaire, which asks subjects to rate how they feel in relation to each of 65 adjectives commonly used to describe mood states. Responses are given on a 5-point scale (0=Not at all, 1=A little, 2=Moderate, 3=Quite a bit, and 4=Extremely). The responses to groups of questions can be summed to calculate six factors: Tension-Anxiety (range 0 to 36), Depression-Rejection (range 0 to 60), Anger-Hostility (range 0 to 48), Vigor-Activity (range 0 to 32), Fatigue-Inertia (range 0 to 28) and Confusion-Bewilderment (range 0 to 28). The Total Mood Disturbance (TMD) score is calculated by summing the six factors while weighting the Vigor-Activity score negatively. The range of this total score is from -32 to 200. A score below -30 or above 68 is considered abnormal. This endpoint was analysed using the safety analysis set; LOCF imputation was used.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    26 Apr 2013
    1. Initially, patients were required to undergo a cystoscopy at Screening to ascertain BPS/IC disease characteristics (i.e., the presence/absence of Hunner’s lesions and glomerulations). The cystoscopy at Screening could be omitted provided results of a previous cystoscopy with hydrodistension were available which could enable the classification of patients into subgroups with and without Hunner’s lesions (glomerulations have been implied in previous diagnostic criteria, but are currently not regarded as specific for BPS/IC). However, the omission of the procedure had no consequences for selection criteria, as the cystoscopy was not meant for diagnosing confounding or confusable bladder conditions. 2. The original protocol stated that the use of antibiotics was not permitted between visit 1/screening and visit 7/FU. In the protocol amendment, these restrictions were reduced to allow antibiotic treatments of up to 2 weeks in duration for indications/infections not including the genitourinary tract. Short regimens of systemic antibiotics for treatment of infections other than UTI were not expected to influence BPS/IC efficacy and safety endpoints. A clinical study with long term antibiotics in BPS/IC did not show convincing efficacy (Warren et al, 2000) and AUA (Hanno et al, 2011) and EAU (2010) guidelines do not regard the use of antibiotics as an effective treatment of BPS/IC.
