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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 is to compare cardiovascular(CV) risk estimated by a renal transplant specific CV calculator in renal transplant recipients (RTR) randomized to belatacept or CNI-based immunosuppression.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Subjects were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to withdraw at any time. All patients were informed about the study both orally and in writing, and signed the informed consent prior to any study related procedures took place. Patients were treated in the clinic with standard care for this population.
    Background therapy
    No treatments that were not test or comparator was used across the two arms in the trial.
    Evidence for comparator
    Standard treatment for renal transplant recipients is the use of CNI. Half of the population remained on this treatment as a comparator and the other half received belatacept.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted in 4 countries, and 11 recruiting sites. Denmark 2 sites, The Netherlands: 1 site, Norway: 1 site, and Sweden 5 sites. A total of 111 were randomized, but 6 of the subject never received any treatment, leaving 105 subject in the study. Of these, 54 received belatacept and 51 received CNI.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    - Signed Written Informed Consent - Renal transplant recipients of living donor or deceased donor kidney transplant. - Stable renal graft with no need for exploratory examination eGFR > 20 ml/min) - Tacrolimus or CsA (cyclosporine A) standard treatment since transplantation - 3 – 60 months post-transplantation - Men and women, aged 18 to 80

    Blinding implementation details
    CNIs are administered orally as a daily dose of tablets, while belatacept is administered as monthly IV infusion, hence an open study design was chosen.

    A total of 112 patients signed the informed consent form. Of these, 1 patient was a screen failure and was never randomized. Of the 111 randomized patients, 6 withdrew consent before any study drug was given, of which 4 were in the belatacept arm and 2 in the CNI arm. Thus, 105 patients were randomized; 54 to the belatacept arm and 51 to the CNI arm. In the belatacept arm 5 patients were withdrawn prematurely from the study; 3 due to AEs, 1 withdrew consent and 1 moved out of the country. Similarly, there were 2 prematurely withdrawals in the CNI arm; 1 due to AE and 1 withdrew consent.

    MACE
    End point description
    In order to evaluate the cardiovascular benefit of belatacept, the CVD risk calculation was chosen as the primary endpoint, i.e. the estimated risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and mortality at one year. The MACE is calculated as a linear combination of the following variables: age, previous coronary heart disease, previous smoker, current smoker, creatinine, diabetes mellitus, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and number of transplants.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    05 Mar 2014
    The substantial amendment included the following changes: • Blood samples to be collected at 0, 6 and 12 months for evaluation of biomarkers for CV risk factors. • Changes in number of patients to be enrolled. The reason for the change was due to the estimated reduction in MACE CV risk score had been downgraded from 40% to 30%, which lead to the need of increasing sample size from 50 to 110. • For patients discontinuing the study before one year, the last available estimate of CV risk was used in the analysis of the ITT population.
    12 Dec 2014
    The substantial amendment included the following changes: • Specifications in the inclusion/exclusion criteria. • Addition of traditional CV biomarkers; ApoB and ApoA1. The ratio for ApoB/ApoA1 added because it has been shown as an efficient test for predicting risk for CV disease. • With the start of the study at three Swedish sites, a need for additional criteria for exclusion from the study as well as clarifications of existing inclusion/exclusion criteria had been discovered. o Exclusion criterion 4b; Previous/on-going use of rituximab has been added to the protocol since the use of rituximab in renal transplants is always an “off-label” (i.e. unapproved) related to humoral rejection. Previous in-label use may be related to treatment of CD20+ B-cell lymphomas, which in turn should be an exclusion criterion, taken into account the increased risk of PTLD with belatacept. Therefore, patients with previous use of rituximab due to e.g. treatment of B-cell lymphoma might not be candidates for conversion to belatacept. o Exclusion criterion 3b; History of tuberculosis has been added to avoid re-activation of tuberculosis as tuberculosis (along with PTLD) has previously been reported as a principal safety finding associated with belatacept.

    The substantial amendment included the following changes: • Sponsor has updated the calculation of infusion dose in order to be in alignment with the SmPC of belatacept. Infusion doses will be based on the patient’s body weight at baseline. If weight later changes more than +/- 10% a new dose was to be calculate. • Clarification of the exclusion criteria regarding tuberculosis and the use of rituximab was made. • Clarification of the term ”Discontinuation of Patients from Treatment” was made, and also included a description of the follow up of patients who were withdrawn from the study. • An update regarding risk monitoring was made. • The different heart diseases were described in more detail.
