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

    Screening details
    A total of 25 renal transplant recipients were enrolled. Participants were randomized to 1 of the 2 treatments groups in a 1:1 ratio and received standard of care in addition to investigational products (IPs). Participants received IP infusion on Day 0, Day 14, Day 28 and every 4 weeks thereafter for a total of 7 infusions.

    Primary: Change from Baseline in naïve B cells from Baseline to Week 24

    End point title
    Change from Baseline in naïve B cells from Baseline to Week 24
    End point description
    Naive B cell is cell that is not exposed to antigen. Naïve B cell count is CD20+CD27 concentration of cells (conc-cell)/cubic millimeter (cumm). Change from Baseline in naïve B cells was calculated as the value at Week 24 minus the value at Baseline. MITT Population consisted of all participants randomized to treatment, who have had taken at least one dose of study. Participants analyzed included those who had data at Week 24 for naïve B cells count (MITT Population). Baseline value used in the analysis was of Day 0 (Day of transplant). Adjusted mean differences (treatment-placebo) and 95% confidence intervals for differences were obtained from mixed-models repeated-measures (MMRM) model, with fixed categorical effects of treatment, visit, donor type and treatment-by-visit interaction and fixed continuous covariates of Baseline and Baseline-by-visit interaction. A compound symmetry variance structure was used to model the within-participant errors, shared across treatments.

    Number of participants with Adverse events (AEs), Serious adverse events (SAEs) and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) [2]
    End point description
    Number of participants with AEs, SAEs and AESI are summarized. The On-treatment (OT) phase started on the day and time of receiving the start of the first infusion and ended on the last dose date plus 28 days. The Post-treatment (PT) phase started 29 days after day of last dose up to 1 year. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in, death, is life threatening, Requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, Results in disability/incapacity, Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or event that but may jeopardize the subject or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed. AESI included malignant neoplasms, infusion/anaphylaxis/hypersensitivity reactions, all infections, depression/suicide/self-injury, deaths.

    Median Percent change from Baseline in memory B cell count at Week 24 and Week 52
    End point description
    Memory B cells are B cell sub-type that are formed within germinal centres following primary infection and are important in generating an accelerated and more robust antibody-mediated immune response in the case of re-infection. Memory B cell count included CD20+CD27+ conc-cells/cumm. Baseline value used in the analysis was of Day 0 (Day of transplant). Endpoint was assessed at Week 24 (at the end of therapy) and at Week 52 (at study end). Percent change from Baseline in Memory B cell count was calculated as the value at Week 24 and Week 52 minus the value at Baseline multiplied by 100. Only those participants available at the specified time points were analyzed (represented by n=X, X in the category titles). Median Difference and 95% confidence interval of difference obtained using the Hodges-Lehmann method.

    Regulatory T cell (%CD4) = CD4+ CD25hi IL-7Rlo (% of CD4+). Adjusted mean difference (treatment-placebo) and 95% confidence intervals for differences were obtained from MMRM model, with fixed categorical effects of treatment, visit, donor type and treatment-by-visit interaction and fixed continuous covariates of Baseline and Baseline-by-visit interaction. A compound symmetry variance structure was used to model the within-participant errors, shared across treatments.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    23 Apr 2013
    The protocol has been amended to provide clarification that this study is not powered to detect clinical efficacy endpoints, and that there is a strong focus on biomarker endpoints to help determine the potential for efficacy. The study objectives have been reworded to reflect a greater emphasis on defining pharmacodynamic responses with belimumab and understanding the impact of belimumab on biomarkers in order to provide a clear assessment of potential for clinical efficacy with belimumab. Endpoints and analysis sections and the Time and Events table have been updated accordingly.
    01 Jul 2013
    The protocol has been amended to provide clarification of the randomisation strategy and to update sponsor team contact details.
    04 Sep 2013
    The protocol has been amended to provide clarification of timings of study events, correction of safety statement, addition of information from IB update and typographic errors have been addressed.
    16 Oct 2013
    The protocol has been amended to change the eligibility criteria of the donor kidney.
    19 May 2014
    The protocol has been amended to update safety information and to include additional sites. Changes have been made to the endpoints, infusion times on Day 0 and the randomization procedure. Clarity is provided surrounding the number enrolled and randomized to achieve 20 completed subjects. Reference to a supplement has been added which has been issued for the current IB. Changes have been made to the statistical analysis section to ensure consistency with the endpoint section and the primary analysis has been clarified.
    21 Jul 2015
    The protocol has been amended to remove the planned interim data analysis (programming and statistical analysis) of the data up to and including week 24. Analysis of all data will now be undertaken following the week 52 time point (end of study).
