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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    A.3Full title of the trial
    A randomised, double-blind, 5 treatment arms, 4-period, incomplete cross-over study to determine the effect of 6 weeks treatment of orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol fixed dose combination (FDC) (2.5 / 5 micrograms; and 5 / 5 micrograms) (delivered by the Respimat Inhaler) compared with tiotropium (5 micrograms), olodaterol (5 micrograms ) and placebo (delivered by the Respimat Inhaler) on lung hyperinflation and exercise endurance time during constant work rate cycle ergometry in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) [MORACTO 1]
    Studio clinico multicentrico randomizzato, in doppio cieco a 5 bracci, con 4 periodi di trattamento, a cross-over incompleto, finalizzato a valutare l'effetto di 6 settimane di trattamento con tiotropio + olodaterolo soluzione per inalazione per via orale, nei seguenti dosaggi a combinazione fissa: 2.5 / 5 microgrammi e 5 / 5 microgrammi inalati attraverso il dispositivo Respimat in confronto a tiotropio (2.5 microgrammi), olodaterolo (5 microgrammi) e placebo (inalato via Respimat), sulla resistenza fisica (tempo, durata) durante ergometria a carico costante in pazienti con bronco-pneumopatia cronico ostruttiva (BPCO)[MORACTO 1].

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    1) To compare the effects of orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol fixed dose combination (2.5 / 5 micrograms ; 5 / 5 micrograms) with tiotropium (5 micrograms), olodaterol (5 micrograms) and placebo on lung hyperinflation during constant work rate exercise in patients with COPD. Lung hyperinflation will be assessed by measurement of inspiratory capacity (IC). 2) To compare the effects of orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol fixed dose combination (2.5 / 5 micrograms ; 5 / 5 micrograms) with tiotropium (5 micrograms), olodaterol (5 micrograms) and placebo on constant work rate exercise tolerance after 6 weeks of treatment in patients with COPD. Exercise tolerance will be assessed by measurement of symptom-limited endurance time during constant work rate cycle ergometry.
    - confrontare l'effetto di tiotropio + olodaterolo in combinazione fissa (2.5 / 5 microgrammi ; 5 / 5 microgrammi) verso tiotropio (5 microgrammi), olodaterolo (5 microgrammi) e placebo sull'iperventilazione durante esercizio a carico costante in pazienti con bronco-pneumopatia cronico ostruttiva (BPCO). L'iperventilazione verra' valutata misurando la capacita' inspiratoria (IC). - confrontare l'effetto di 6 settimane di trattamento con tiotropio + olodaterolo in combinazione fissa (2.5 / 5 microgrammi ; 5 / 5 microgrammi) verso tiotropio (5 microgrammi), olodaterolo (5 microgrammi) e placebo sulla tolleranza all'esercizio fisico in pazienti con bronco-pneumopatia cronico ostruttiva (BPCO). La tolleranza all'esercizio fisico verra' valutata misurando il tempo di resistenza ed il sintomo limitante durante ciclo-ergometria a carico costante.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objective of this study is to compare the effects of orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol fixed dose combination (2.5 / 5 micrograms ; 5 / 5 micrograms) with tiotropium (5 micrograms), olodaterol (5 micrograms) and placebo on the intensity of breathing discomfort experienced during constant work rate exercise in patients with COPD. The intensity of breathing discomfort will be rated by the patients using the Borg Category-Ratio Scale.

L'intensita' del disagio respiratorio sara' valutata utilizzando la scala di Borg.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Two primary endpoints are defined: • inspiratory capacity (IC) at isotime during constant work rate cycle ergometry to symptom limitation at 75% Wcap after 6 weeks of treatment. • endurance time during constant work rate cycle ergometry to symptom limitation at 75% Wcap* (maximal work capacity) after 6 weeks of treatment. * Wcap (maximal work capacity) is the maximum work rate achieved for at least 30 seconds during the incremental cycle ergometry performed at Visit 1.
    -Capacita' inspiratoria (IC) all'isotime durante ergometria a carico costante con valutazione del sintomo limitante al 75% del Wcap (capacità massima di sforzo) dopo 6 settimane di trattamento; -Tempo di resistenza durante cicloergometria a carico costante con valutazione del sintomo limitante al 75% del Wcap dopo 6 settimane di trattamento; Il Wcap (o capacita' massima di esercizio) e' la capacita' massima di esercizio mantenuta per almento 30 secondi durante il test cicloergomentrico incrementale alla V1

    dopo 6 settimane di trattamento
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    The following key secondary endpoint will also be assessed during the constant work rate cycle ergometry: - intensity of breathing discomfort at isotime during constant work rate cycle ergometry to symptom limitation at 75% Wcap after 6 weeks of treatment
