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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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
    The primary objective of this open-label trial was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of aripiprazole intramuscular (IM) depot administered for 26 weeks to participants with schizophrenia.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was conducted in compliance with the protocol, International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Consolidated Guideline, and the applicable local laws and regulatory requirements of the countries in which the trial was conducted, copies of the protocol, amendments, and informed consent form (ICF) were reviewed and approved by the governing institutional review board (IRB) or independent ethics committee (IEC) for each investigational site or country, as appropriate, prior to trial start or prior to implementation of the amendment at that site or country.

The Columbia Classification Algorithm of Suicide Assessment (C-CASA) method and C-SSRS(text in parentheses as said below) were mapped as; 1= completed suicide(completed suicide); 2= suicide attempt(actual attempt); 3= preparatory actions toward imminent suicidal behavior (interrupted attempt, aborted attempt and preparatory acts/behavior); 4= suicidal ideation(wish to die, active suicidal thought, active suicidal thought with method, active suicidal thought with intent, active suicidal thought with plan/intent); 5= self-injurious behavior, intent unknown; 6= not enough information: death; 7= non-suicidal self-injurious behavior(nonsuicidal self-injurious behavior); 8= other accident; psychiatric/medical; 9= not enough information/non-death. C-CASA category 5, 6, 8 and 9 are not applicable. For each item, each participant received an intensity score from 0(none) to 5(worst). Suicidal ideation intensity total score range from 0 to 25.

    The EPS rating scales included SAS total score (range 10-50) was the sum of the rating scores for 10 items from the SAS panel. This scale consists of a list of 10 symptoms, each to be rated on a 5-point scale of severity. For each symptom, the rating which best described the patient's condition were, 1= gait; 2= arm dropping; 3= shoulder shaking; 4= elbow rigidity; 5= wrist rigidity; 6= head rotation; 8= tremor; 9= salivation; 10= akathisia.

    EPS rating scale included the AIMS movement rating score (range 0-28) was the sum of the rating scores for facial and oral movements (i.e., item 1 - 4), extremity movements (i.e. item 5 - 6), and trunk movements (i.e. item 7). The symptoms for facial and oral movements were 1= muscles of facial expression, 2= lips and perioral area, 3= jaw and 4=tongue; extremity movements were, 5= upper (arms, wrists, hands, fingers), lower (legs, knees, ankles, toes), 7= neck, shoulders, hips). This scale consisted of 10 items, each to be rated on a 4-point scale of severity, and 2 questions to be answered by yes or no. To complete the scale, the patient was observed unobtrusively at rest (e.g., in waiting room). The chair used for this examination was hard, firm one without arms.

    Mean change in sitting diastolic BP from Baseline in all participants.
    End point description
    The diastolic sitting BP, which is a vital sign parameter was one of the parameters to measure the safety and tolerability of individual participants. Orthostatic assessments of blood pressure and heart rate were made after the participant was supine for at least 5 minutes and again after the participant was sitting for approximately 2 minutes. Last visit was defined as the last assessment visit in the treatment phase (scheduled or unscheduled visit).

    AEs were recorded from the time the ICF was signed until follow-up for safety 14 (±2) days after the last trial visit.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    A SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that results in death or was life-threatening or required inpatient hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization. An AE was an exacerbation of an existing problem or any new problem, experienced by a participant when enrolled in a trial, whether or not it was considered drug related by the study physician.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    27 Sep 2012
    The changes in this amendment were made to reflect the updates to Protocol 31-12-291 (Trial 2012-003805-86) which eliminated an Interim Analysis. This change required trial 2012-003806-28 remove references to participants who were discontinued from Trial 2012-003805-86 due to a positive interim analysis. General revisions to the protocol were; added Lundbeck Protocol Number Lu AF41155 to cover page and synopsis and made minor formatting corrections.
    12 Oct 2012
    The change in this amendment was made to reflect the correction to needle gauge based on Body Mass Index (BMI). General revisions were made to this protocol such as; Deleted all reference to needle: 21 gauge, 1.5 inch for BMI ≤28 kg/m2 participants in the active treatment phase of Trial 2012-003805-86 who were discontinued from that trial due to a positive interim analysis (IA), changed text to needle: 22 gauge, 1.5 inch for BMI ≤28 and minor formatting corrections.
