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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate the efficacy of 16 weeks of titrated dose treatment with BAY 85 3934 versus darbepoetin alfa (hereafter called darbepoetin) as measured by haemoglobin (Hb) levels during the last 4 weeks of treatment (evaluation period).
    Evaluar la eficacia de 16 semanas de tratamiento con dosis ajustadas de BAY 85-3934 frente a darbepoetina alfa (en adelante «darbepoetina») medida mediante las concentraciones de hemoglobina (Hb) durante las últimas 4 semanas de tratamiento (período de evaluación).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - Evaluate the safety and tolerability of 16 weeks of treatment with BAY 85-3934 when administered as a titrated dose versus darbepoetin.
    - Evaluate the pharmacodynamics of BAY 85-3934 when administered as a titrated dose for 16 weeks.
    - Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of BAY 85-3934 and optionally its metabolite, M-1, when administered as a titrated dose for 16 weeks.

    The exploratory objective is to investigate selected parameters of kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, as well as parameters of iron metabolism and patient-reported outcomes (PROs).
    - Evaluar la seguridad y tolerabilidad de 16 semanas de tratamiento con BAY 85-3934 cuando se administra en dosis ajustadas frente a darbepoetina.
    - Evaluar la farmacodinamia de BAY 85-3934 cuando se administra en dosis ajustadas durante 16 semanas.

    After the last treatment with study drug, further ESA treatment is at the discretion of the investigator. In the follow-up period of 8 weeks further ESA treatment must be documented in detail.

    Alternatively, eligible subjects have the option to be enrolled in the Europe and Asia Pacific long-term extension study (Study 15653). Subjects entering the extension study will not be included in the follow-up period in this study.
    Después del último tto con el fármaco de estudio, la realización de un tto con ESA posterior queda a discreción del investigador. En el periodo de seguimiento de 8 semanas debe documentarse en detalle todo tto adicional con un ESA.

    Como alternativa, los sujetos idóneos podrán incorporarse al estudio de extensión a largo plazo de Europa y el Pacífico asiático (estudio 15653). Los sujetos que se incorporen al estudio de extensión no se incluirán en el período de seguimiento de este estudio.
