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   43846   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Double blind phase : Screening(≤ -1 to-8 Wks), Day 0, W2, M3, M6, M9, M12/LTSE D1, End of Treatment (if applicable), follow-up Long term safety extension: M3, M6, M9, M12, End of Treatment, follow up

    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Analyses regarding secondary endpoints will be specified in the SAP and conducted for the following parameters. It is anticipated that additional disease prognostic algorithms will be published during the course of the trial. Where appropriate, secondary analyses will be conducted using such algorithms. At the blinded data review a determination will be made as to which algorithms will be evaluated statistically, as it is likely that there will be small numbers of patients for some algorithms and formal statistical analysis will not therefore be appropriate. • ALP response rates of 10%, 20% and 40% change • Disease Prognostic Risk (criteria in relevant patients): -ALP ≤ 3x ULN and AST ≤ 2x ULN and normal bilirubin - ALP ≤ 1.5x ULN and AST ≤ 1.5x ULN and bilirubin within normal limits - ALP ≤ 1.67x ULN and normal bilirubin - Normal bilirubin and normal albumin • Clinical laboratory values: - GGT, ALT, AST, total and conjugated bilirubin - Albumin, prothrombin time and INR • Liver biopsy/histology: Inflammatory, structural (portal, parenchymal) and fibrotic assessments • Disease Specific Symptoms: - PBC-40 - 5-D Pruritus Questionnaire - Pruritus VAS • Biomarkers and non-invasive assessments of liver fibrosis - Fibrosis biomarkers (ELF) - TE (at selected trial sites) - Other analytes: TNF-α, TGF-β, IL-6, CK-18 and lysophosphatidic acid • Bile acids - Plasma OCA, other bile acids and conjugate concentrations - Bile and feces concentrations (at selected trial sites)
    Le analisi relative agli endpoint secondari saranno specificati nel SAP e condotte per i seguenti parametri. Si prevede che ulteriori algoritmi prognostici sulla malattia saranno pubblicati nel corso dello studio. Se del caso, le analisi secondarie saranno condotte utilizzando tali algoritmi. In sede di revisione in cieco dei dati si deciderà quali algoritmi saranno valutati statisticamente, in quanto è probabile che ci sarà un piccolo numero di pazienti per alcuni algoritmi e quindi un’ analisi statistica formale potrebbe non essere appropriata. • Tassi di risposta di variazione dell’ALP del 10%, 20% e 40%. • rischio prognostici di malattia (criterio rilevante in alcuni pazienti): - ALP ≤ 3x ULN e AST ≤ 2x ULN e bilirubina normale - ALP ≤ 1,5 x ULN e AST ≤ 1,5 x ULN e bilirubina entro i limiti normali - ALP 1.67x ≤ ULN e bilirubina normale - bilirubina normale e albumina normale • valori di laboratorio clinico: - GGT, ALT, AST, bilirubina totale e coniugata - L'albumina, tempo di protrombina e INR • biopsia epatica / istologia: valutazione dell’infiammazione della strutturali (portale, parenchimale) e della fibrosi. • sintomi specifici della malattia: - PBC-40 - Questionario 5-D sul Prurito - VAS sul Prurito • Biomarkers e valutazioni non invasive della fibrosi epatica - Biomarcatori della Fibrosi (ELF) - TE (in centri selezionati) - Altri analiti: TNF-α, TGF-β, IL-6, CK-18 e acido lisofosfatidico • acidi biliari - concentrazioni di OCA plasmatico e di altri acidi biliari nativi e coniugati - Concentrazioni nella bile e nelle feci (in centri selezionati)
