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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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 purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of two different doses of IncobotulinumtoxinA (NT 201) compared to placebo in one double-blind cycle Main Period (MP) with one subsequent open-label treatment cycle Open label Extension (OLEX period) in botulinum toxin [BTX] treatment-naïve subjects with benign essential blepharospasm (BEB) using a dose of 12.5 or 25 units IncobotulinumtoxinA per eye (total dose of 25 or 50 units IncobotulinumtoxinA for both eyes) in the MP and a single dose of up to 35 units IncobotulinumtoxinA per eye in the OLEX period (total dose of up to 70 units IncobotulinumtoxinA for both eyes), each followed by 6 to 20 weeks observation.

    Double-blind MP: Change from Baseline in JRS Severity Subscore at Day 43 (Visit 4)
    End point description
    JRS severity subscore was used to classify individual symptoms of blepharospasm and to determine therapeutic efficacy. JRS severity subscore ranges from 0 to 4, where 0: None; 1: increased blinking present with external stimuli; 2: Mild but spontaneous eyelid fluttering, definitely noticeable, possibly embarrassing, but not functionally disabling, 3: Moderate, very noticeable spasm of eyelids only, mildly incapacitating, 4: Severe, incapacitating spasm of eyelids and possibly other facial muscles. Values represent least square (LS) mean differences between baseline and visit 4 resulting from analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with treatment group, pooled site, and gender as fixed factors and baseline JRS severity subscore and age as covariates and missings replaced using the last observation carried forward (LOCF) method. Negative values denote improvement, while positive values denote deterioration vs. baseline.

    Statistical analysis description
    The difference in change of JRS severity subscore between treatment groups was analyzed by an ANCOVA according to a hierarchical test procedure. First step of hierarchy is hypothesis of superiority of 50 unit dose group NT 201 compared to placebo. This was tested confirmatory (α=0.05, 2-sided) by an ANCOVA with treatment group, pooled site, and gender as fixed factors and baseline JRS severity subscore and age as covariates based on LS means comparison. Missing values were imputed by LOCF.

    Double-blind MP: Change from Baseline in Blepharospasm Disability Index (BSDI) at Day 43 (Visit 4)
    End point description
    BSDI is a scale for assessment of impairment of specific activities of daily living caused by blepharospasm. BSDI consists of six items (driving a vehicle; reading; watching TV; shopping; getting about on foot (walking); doing everyday activities), each ranging from 0 (=no impairment) to 4 (=no longer possible due to illness). The BSDI total score is a mean score for non-missing items ranging from 0 to 4. It is calculated by adding scores of all applicable and answered items, and dividing the resulting sum by the number of items answered. Outcome values represent LS mean differences between baseline and visit 4 (visit 4 value minus baseline value) resulting from ANCOVA with treatment group, pooled site, gender as fixed factors and baseline BSDI total score, age as covariates. Missings were replaced by the LOCF method. Negative values denote an improvement, while positive values denote deterioration vs. baseline.

    PEGR scale is a descriptive subjective 9-point response self-rating scale ranging from “complete abolishment of signs and symptoms” (value=+4) down to “very marked worsening” (value=-4). Outcome values represent least square means at visit 4 resulting from an ANCOVA with treatment group, pooled site, gender as fixed factors and age as covariates.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    31 Jul 2014
    1) Change in safety information: Due to the global harmonization of the Company Core Safety Information (CCSI) which is included as RSI within the investigator's brochure (IB) new safety information have been included for the indication blepharospasm. Common AEs related to NT 201 in the indication BEB were updated. 2) Updates in the current approval status and external responsibilities implemented.
    04 May 2015
    1) Addition of a new safety assessment to prospectively monitor suicidality in order to comply with FDA guidance on suicidality testing in all clinical trials investigating neurological indications: Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). 2) Addition of a new safety variable (classified as other safety variable) based on the results of the C-SSRS. 3) Addition of an exclusion criterion specifying that subjects with significant risk of suicidality at the baseline assessment were to be excluded. 4) Addition of a new eligibility criterion for injection in the OLEX period: no significant risk of suicidality since last injection based on the investigator's judgement, or if appropriate, as indicated of "no" to questions 4 or 5 in the suicidal ideation section of the C-SSRS, or no non suicidal self-injurious behavior, or no suicidal behavior. 5) Addition of a new discontinuation criterion: subjects were to be discontinued if there was a positive report on suicidality based on the C-SSRS. 6) Modification of data management procedures clarifying documentation of the C-SSRS results. 7) Modification of the definition of SAEs further specifying suicidal ideation (a response of “yes” to questions 4 or 5) or any suicidal behavior as “medically important condition”. 8) Description of the analysis of C-SSRS data. 9) New data added to the risk-benefit assessment.
