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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of I10E compared to Kiovig® for maintenance treatment of patients with MMN in a randomised, double-blind, active comparator-controlled, cross-over design.
    Protection of trial subjects
    No specific protection.
    Background therapy
    		 None
    Evidence for comparator
    		 The comparator was Kiovig, the only human normal immunoglobulin with an indication in Multifocal Motor Neuropathy when the study protocol was written

    Before shipment to investigational sites, each vial of IMP was covered by a masking system and was packaged in an individual box. Each vial and box was labelled with a unique identification number and all other useful information for the study except information enabling the identification of IMP. Before each course, the hospital pharmacist logged in the IWRS and obtained the vial identification numbers for vials to be administered to the subject.

    Dosage and treatment course frequency could vary from subject to subject. The treatment schedule was to be maintained stable at the same level as before inclusion into the study. The allowed range was between 1 g/kg over 1-3 days and 2 g/kg over 2-5 days every 4 to 8 weeks. I10E and Kiovig were administered in a double-blind manner by investigators. Duration of treatment: Randomized subjects were treated for between 42 and 50 weeks including two 21 to 25-week periods with Kiovig and I10E or vice versa. The exact duration of the treatment and follow-up depended on each subject’s own schedule.

    End point description
    The MMRC 10 sum score measure muscle strength in 10 muscle groups (5 in upper limbs and 5 in lower limbs) right and left. Each muscle group is scored from 0 (paralysis) to 5 (normal strength), resulting in a global score from 0 to 100.

    End point timeframe
    The evaluation period started 13 weeks after the initiation of each product and lasted until the end of the respective period.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The linear mixed model used in this study estimated the effects of the products, periods and sequence on the mean MMRC 10 sumscore. The estimates of the effect of each of these 3 factors were adjusted based on the 2 other factors and on the baseline values. The estimated 95% confidence interval was also calculated for these 3 factors. The non-inferiority of I10E compared to Kiovig was tested at 1-sided alfa risk of 2.5%. The non-inferiority margin was of 2 points.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    04 Sep 2014
    - The inclusion of subjects who received Kiovig more than 6 months before enrolment was permitted. - The definition of the PPS population was modified to be more conservative. - The limitation to 4 subjects per site was withdrawn to help enrol one or two more subjects in a few sites. - The IMP dosage reduction in obese subjects was removed because it was not appropriate during the maintenance treatment phase with IVIg. - The enrolment period was extended until the end of 3rd quarter 2016.
    26 Aug 2015
    - For the replacement of non-evaluable subjects, the new subject was to undergo a new randomization rather than having the same sequence group as the replaced subject. - Modifications on some exclusion criteria. - The potential risks related to the IMP were aligned with the European Guideline EMA/CHMP/BPWP/94038/2007 rev. 4. - The follow-up of AEs was clarified. - This amendment also incorporated rephrasing for clarification and consistencies between different clinical protocols. - This amendment also specified various administrative changes.
    18 Sep 2015
    A urine protein reagent strip test was added before IMP administration at all follow-up visits in subjects who had an abnormal (one cross or more) urine protein reagent strip test at screening and/or had GFR in the range of 60-80 mL/min/1.73 m2 measured according to the MDRD formula.
