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   43977   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7312   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
    To demonstrate that administration of Naloxone HCl PR (prolonged-release) tablets twice daily is superior to Naloxone HCl PR Placebo in the improvement / reversal of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) as determined by the Bowel Function Index (BFI)
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in compliance with the protocol, by trial personnel, who are qualified by education, training, and experience in their roles, with adherence to Good Clinical Practice (GCP), the applicable regulatory requirements and ethical principles based on the Declaration of Helsinki.
    Background therapy
    Opioid rescue medication: •Morphine sulphate 10 mg immediate-release tablets, oral administration, as needed, single dose: 5-20 mg, depending on trial opioid dose Laxative rescue medications: •Bisacodyl 5 mg gastro-resistant tablets, oral administration, single dose: 5-20 mg (1-4 tablets) •Bisacodyl 10 mg suppositories, rectal administration, single dose: 10 mg, 1 suppository

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Subjects of ≥ 18 years of age with documented history of constipation induced or worsened by their oral or sublingual World Health Organization (WHO) step-II or step-III opioid medication were recruited.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A total of 298 subjects were screened, out of these, 173 subjects were randomized. 64 subjects were screening failures. Further 61 screened subjects prematurely discontinued from the trial before randomisation.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to have started the pre-assignment period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The worldwide number enrolled subjects in the trial is the number of randomized subjects.
