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   44335   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 ).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    23 Aug 2012
    The sponsor decided to reduce the frequency and maximum duration of the follow up (FU) visits after EOT. This change was also applicable to follow up (FU) visits in case of premature study drug withdrawal. In addition, an SMV 75-mg capsule was added as possible formulation. The posttreatment FU visits were scheduled at Week 4, 8, 12, and 24 after the actual end of treatment (EOT). In case of premature study drug withdrawal, the visit 2 weeks after study drug withdrawal did not change. The posttreatment FU visits at Week 4, 12, and 24 were scheduled for the determination of SVR4, SVR12, and SVR24. The review meetings were updated accordingly. The HCV RNA confirmation test when HCV RNA was detected after previous undetectability was changed from ‘within 3’ to ‘within 4’ weeks. This allowed the retest visit to coincide with one of the next scheduled visits. A minor change was made to the virologic stopping rules: an inadequate virologic response needed to be confirmed.For consistency reasons, the primary endpoint safety was added to the primary endpoints. A time window was added to the blood sampling times. A minor change was made to the criteria of the 36 weeks of PegIFN/RBV FU treatment in Panel 3: the FU treatment was also applicable to subjects with HCV RNA detectable at Week 4. A note was added to the hematology panel and urinalysis, giving extra information about what could or was also reported by the laboratory. Flow cytometry was not done in case of an abnormal urinalysis dipstick test. An SMV 75-mg capsule was added as possible formulation. This allowed more flexibility in the choice of the optimal dose. The Cardiovascular Safety Abnormalities was added and the references regarding cardiovascular abnormalities were updated. Minor inconsistencies and errors was corrected. Some clarifications were added. At implementation of the first general protocol amendment, 29 subjects in Panel 1 and 2 had been screened of whom 17 had started treatment.
    05 Dec 2012
    The sponsor decided to make the discontinuation of treatment criteria more precise and to streamline the age criteria between 2 of its HCV compounds. The discontinuation of treatment criteria were made more precise to distinguish between treatment-emergent liver-related AEs/abnormalities and abnormal laboratory values that were the consequence of the liver disease. Any related data in other sections were updated for consistency reasons. The age limit was increased up to 70-years-old (in good physical condition) to streamline the age criteria between SMV and TMC647055. If the subject had a positive urine drug test at screening a retesting was allowed after a time interval of minimum 7 days instead of at the same day. This was to exclude one-time and short usage. Minor errors and inconsistencies were corrected and clarifications were made. At implementation of the second general protocol amendment, 45 subjects in Panel 1 and 2 had been screened of whom 31 had started treatment.
    24 Apr 2013
    This amendment was made to replace Panel 3. Ongoing review of safety, PK, and HCV RNA data obtained from Panel 1 and 2 indicated that the combination treatment TMC647055 + SMV + RTV with and without RBV was generally safe and well tolerated and that exploration of higher dose levels of TMC647055 and RTV could optimize the PK profile and efficacy of the combination treatment. Therefore, the original third panel of 10 null responders described in the original protocol was replaced by a new panel. In order to optimize the PK profile and efficacy of the combination treatment, the original Panel 3 of null responders was replaced by a panel with 2 treatment arms: Arm 1, 8 HCV GT1a and Arm 2, 8 HCV GT1b treatment-naïve subjects or prior relapsers to a previous IFN-based therapy. The subjects in Panel 3 received a 12-week treatment with TMC647055 600 mg qd, SMV 75 mg qd, and RTV 50 mg qd with (Arm 1) or without (Arm 2) RBV 1,000 to 1,200 mg bid. A 36-week IFN/RBV FU treatment was planned for subjects with HCV RNA ≥25 IU/mL at Week 4. The tentative doses of Panel 1 and 2 were updated to the actual doses. The inclusion criteria were updated to reflect the current practice of confirming the HCV GT and subtype at screening. The data analysis and review meeting time points were updated to allow frequent monitoring of safety, PK, and HCV RNA data instead of at predefined time points. The preliminary statistical analysis was made optional and only occurred if deemed necessary. A brief description of the preliminary safety results was added. Additional information was provided regarding the sample size determination. Plasma concentrations of RTV were not incorporated in an existing population model and Cmax was removed from the PK parameters of SMV that were derived in each subject using Bayesian feedback. The text was updated to reflect the completion of study TMC647055HPC1006.

    This amendment was created to enable Proof-of-Concept data of the addition of the NS5A inhibitor JNJ-56914845 (at 2 dose levels) onto the currently studied regimen of the PI SMV and the NNI TMC647055, boosted by RTV, against HCV GT1a and GT1b. An additional panel (Panel 4) with 2 arms was included to evaluate the safety, PK, and efficacy of the coadministration of SMV 75 mg qd, TMC647055 450 mg qd, RTV 30 mg qd, and JNJ-56914845 (30 and 60 mg qd) for 12 weeks without RBV, in a population of 40 subjects infected with HCV GT1a or GT1b, with a maximum of 16 subjects infected with GT1b, naive to all hepatitis C treatment or relapsers from previous IFN- and RBV-based treatment. The subjects in this panel did not receive FU treatment. A dose rationale for JNJ-56914845 was added (see Section 3.2). As this study involved SMV, the sun protection measures were updated as recommended by the Food and Drug Administration. At implementation of the forth general protocol amendment, a total of 101 subjects were screened (45 in Panel 1 and 2; 56 in Panel 3 and 4) and a total of 59 had started treatment (31 in Panel 1 and 2; 28 in Panel 3 and 4).
