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   44043   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7319   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.

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A multicenter, Phase 2, randomized, open label, active-controlled, parallel-group study investigating the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of different dose levels of ACP-001 administered once weekly versus standard daily rhGH replacement therapy in pre-pubertal children with Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD)

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To compare the safety and PK/PD profile of three different ACP-001 doses to that of a commercially available standard daily rhGH formulation in pre-pubertal children with growth failure due to GHD.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were followed.

    End point description
    As part of the following endpoint: PD profile of serum IGF-I during V1 and V3 compared between the ACP-001 dose groups and to the daily rhGH group. Uncorrected Emax (the maximum observed efficacy response) values at Week 13

    Notes
    [8] - 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: As this is an exploratory study, no hypothesis tests were performed.
    [9] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
