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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To investigate the clinical efficacy of NNC0109-0012 compared to placebo when administered as weekly repeat subcutaneous (s.c., under the skin) injections in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with inadequate responses to methotrexate (MTX) while on a stable background of MTX therapy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, October 2000, Amended 2002, 2004 and 2008, International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice, May 1996. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 312.120, and 21 CFR, parts 312, 50, and 56 were followed for United States (US) trial sites.
    Background therapy
    		 All subjects were on a stable background treatment with methotrexate (MTX); MTX treatment for at least 16 weeks at a dose of ≥15.0 mg/week to ≤25 mg/week and at a stable dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the screening visit. Subjects could be on MTX as low as 10 mg/week only if due to documented MTX intolerance, stable dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the screening visit. Additional background treatments could have included hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or steroidal medication.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: Number of subjects completed the main trial period = 208. Number of subjects started the extension trial period = 199. Number of subjects completed main trial period, but did not enter extension trial period = 9 (2 in placebo [1 due to protocol deviation and 1 met withdrawal criteria]; 3 [all met withdrawal criteria] in main-60 mg; 3 [1 due to AE-non fatal and 2 met withdrawal criteria] in main-120 mg; and 1 [due to AE-non fatal] in main-240 mg.

    The HAQ-DI assesses the functional status for performing activities of daily living and includes questions of fine movements of the upper extremity, locomotor activities of the lower extremity, and activities that involve both upper and lower extremities. There are 20 questions in 8 categories of functioning which represent dressing, rising, eating walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and usual activities. For each of these categories, the subjects reported the amount of difficulty in performing two or three specific activities. The HAQ-DI score ranges from 0-3 (3=worst functioning) and was calculated according to the HAQ manual based on the 8-category scores and the use of aids/devices and/or help from another person when indicated.

    All AEs presented in this report are treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs). A TEAE was defined as an event that has onset date on or after the first day of dose administration, and no later than the end of the entire trial. Analysis population: The safety analysis set (SAS) consisted of all subjects randomised and exposed to at least one dose of trial product. For the SAS, AE data are presented for the main treatment period (week 0-24) plus follow-up period (12-week) for subjects who withdrew during the main treatment period.

    		 Radiographic assessments - Change from baseline in van der Heijde sharp score.
    End point description
    Change from baseline at week 24 in the van der Heijde modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) and 2 subdomains of the van der Heijde Sharp score (i.e., erosion score and joint-space narrowing score [JSN]) was ranked for the subjects. The van der Heijde modified Sharp scoring system assesses changes in structural damage, assigning scores for erosions of 0–5.0 from 16 areas in the hands and wrists, and from the feet, each side of the 10 metatarsophalangeals (MTPs) and two intraphalangeal joints of the big toe. For Joint Space Narrowing (JSN) scores of 0–5 were assigned to 15 areas from the hands and wrists and six areas from the feet. The total van der Heijde radiographic score ranged from 0-448. Analysis population: The FAS included all randomised subjects. Missing data were imputed using LOCF. Change from baseline in van der Heijde sharp score was planned to be analysed only at the pre-planned week 24; hence, no data for week 12 are available.

    Adverse events

    		 Close Top of page
    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    For main trial period: treatment period (week 0-24) + follow-up period (12-week) for subjects who withdrew during the main treatment period. Extension trial period: treatment period (week 25-52) + follow-up period (12-week).
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    AEs are reported for the SAS and for the ETS. For the ETS, the data analyses included measurements starting at week 0 through week 52 plus the 12-week follow-up, and could therefore overlap with AE data reported for the SAS (i.e., for the main treatment period [week 0-24]).

    Restart date
    07 Aug 2014
    On 07-Aug-2014, Novo Nordisk A/S announced the decision to terminate the phase 2a Trial NN8226-3613 for the development of NNC0109-0012 for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This occurred as a consequence of the planned partial database lock (pDBL) and analysis (01-July-2014) which showed no significant differences in primary endpoint achievement (ACR20 at week 12) comparing NNC0109-0012 treatment with placebo. This analysis included all randomised subjects in Trial NN8226-3613. The decision by Novo Nordisk to discontinue dosing in the trial as of 07-Aug 2014 was based on the finding of no statistically significant differences in changes in disease activity after treatment with NNC0109-0012 compared with placebo.
