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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of this study was to explore the efficacy of tocilizumab (TCZ) in reduced dosing frequency regimens (every 3 weeks [Q3W] and every 4 weeks [Q4W], as appropriate) using Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS)-71, JIA flare, and fever (attributable to sJIA) and to describe the pharmacodynamics, using soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) and C-reactive protein (CRP), and immunogenicity of TCZ in reduced dosing frequency regimens.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Participants with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) were recruited at study sites in 8 countries. The study consisted of two parts: Part 1 was a 24-week Run-in period and Part 2 was a 52-week Main study.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Part 1 enrolled 19. Patients treated with tocilizumab (TCZ) every other week (Q2W) either during Part 1 or prior to the study, who experienced laboratory abnormalities and which had resolved, were allowed to enroll into Part 2. Part 2 enrolled 22 with 6 from Part 1 and 16 directly enrolled into Part 2.

    Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS-71) at the End of Part 2 of the Study [1]
    End point description
    JADAS-71 has 4 components:Physician global assessment of disease activity on visual analog scale (VAS) (range=0-10, 0=arthritis inactive, 10=very poor), patient/parent global assessment of overall well-being on VAS (range=0-10, 0=very well, 10=very poor), normalized erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (range=0-10, If ESR is ≤20 mm/h, set to 0. If ≥120 mm/h, set to 10 mm/h. If > 20 mm/h and < 120 mm/h, apply formula:[ESR−20 mm/h]/10 mm/h), count of active arthritis (swelling present/pain present and limitation of motion) in 71 selected joints (range=0-71). Total score=sum of 4 component scores,range=0-101. Higher score=more arthritis. Data was collected: Part 2:Q3W Baseline, Weeks 3,6,9,12,24,36,48 and 51; Q4W-Baseline, Weeks 0,4,8,12,24,36 and 40. All TCZ population, participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug. n=participants with data at given timepoint. 9999=Not available; No participant analysed at given timepoint. 99999=SD was not estimable for 1 participant.

    Number of Participants With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) Disease Flare as Determined by JIA Core Variables in Part 2 of the Study [2]
    End point description
    JIA flare was defined as any 3 of 6 core outcome variables worsening by at least 30% relative to baseline visit of Part 2, with no >1 of remaining variables improving by >30%. For number of joints with active arthritis/limitation of motion a minimum worsening of at least 2 joints had to be present. If physician global assessment (PGA)/parent/patient global assessment were used a minimum worsening of at least 2 units on a scale=0-10 had to be present. For ESR, a worsening of at least 30% was not considered if within normal ranges. The 6 core outcome variables: PGA of disease activity, parent/patient global assessment of overall well-being, number of joints with active arthritis/limitation of movement, ESR (measure of acute phase reaction) and functional ability determined by CHAQ Disability Index. All TCZ population, all participants who received at least one dose of study drug. Number of participants analyzed=participants with data available for analyses.

    Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event
    End point description
    An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. Safety population, all participants who have received at least one dose of study drug and who have at least one post-baseline assessment of safety.

    CHAQ- Disability Index consists of 30 questions in 8 domains: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities-distributed, among a total of 30 items. Each question was rated on 4-point scale with range 0=no difficulty to 3=unable to do. To calculate overall score, participant must have a domain score in at least 6 of 8 domains. Scores were averaged to calculate CHAQ disability index, range is 0=no/minimal physical dysfunction)-3=very severe physical dysfunction, higher score indicates more disability.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    18 Mar 2013
    In Protocol WA28029 version 2 the Patient-reported outcome measures section was updated to use Child Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ) instead of Juvenile Arthritis Multidimensional Assessment Report (JAMAR). Physician global assessment of disease activity and parent/patient global assessment of overall well-being were updated to use 100 mm horizontal visual analogue scale (VAS).
    07 Jan 2016
    Protocol WA28029 version 3 included the addition of a preliminary screening assessment (Screening Evaluation 1) and a run-in phase of ≤ 24 weeks (Part 1). The proposed modifications were intended to increase enrollment by helping to identify participants with resolved laboratory abnormalities as per protocol criteria in Part 1 on the TCZ Q2W regimen who were eligible to participate in the decreased dose frequency phase (Part 2).

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
