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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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
    To evaluate the clinical responder rate, defined as the proportion of subjects with normal UFC after 6 months of treatment with COR-003 in the Maintenance Phase without dose increase, and to evaluate the range of effective doses in subjects with various levels of hypercortisolism.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Withdrawal criteria defined for events relating to QT interval prolongation and laboratory abnormalities related to liver tests.
    Background therapy

    A total of 201 patients were screened between 30 July 2014 and 30 June 2017. Of these, 107 patients were screening failures, predominantly because they did not meet eligibility criteria.

    Levoketoconazole Titration Phase
    Arm description
    The initial dose was levoketoconazole 150 mg BID (300 mg/day), taken as 1 tablet in the morning and 1 tablet in the evening. During the first 2 to 21 weeks, dose was titrated in protocol-defined increments up to each subject's therapeutic dose, based on the subject's urinary free cortisol (UFC) levels and safety/tolerability. The interval between upward dose adjustments was to be approximately 18 days. The lowest allowed dose was 150 mg/day for subjects who could not tolerate 150 mg BID; the highest allowed dose was 600 mg BID (1200 mg/day). The therapeutic dose had been reached when mean UFC levels (determined from a total of 4 24-h urine collections) were ≤ULN of the assay, or the maximum allowed dose (600 mg BID) had been reached, or a clinically meaningful partial response and the maximal tolerated dose had been reached.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: All patients but one continued into the Extended Evaluation Phase while one patient chose not to continue.

    mUFC Complete Response Rate
    End point description
    Clinical response to levoketoconazole was defined as mean 24-h urinary free cortisol concentration (mUFC) less than or equal to the ULN (upper limit of normal) of the reference range following 6 months of therapy in the Maintenance Phase without a dose increase during that phase. The proportion of responders at the end of maintenance phase visit for all dose groups combined was estimated using a generalised linear model with repeated measurements and with region (US vs non-US), concurrent CS median conditions (diabetes [Yes/NO], hypertension [Yes/No]), age (rounded median split based on the ITT population), sex, disease duration (years), prior CS medication (Yes/No), prior radiation therapy (Yes/No) as baseline covariates and visit as an independent factor. The LS mean estimate of the UFC response after 6 months of treatment in maintenance phase with 95% confidence interval was used to infer efficacy.

    Primary Efficacy Endpoint Analysis
    Statistical analysis description
    The GLM described above was used as the primary analysis method. Under the null hypothesis of at most 20% responders, 90 subjects in the ITT population provided 90% power with 2-sided type 1 error of 0.05 assuming an observed response of 35%. The Wald 95% confidence interval around the UFC response estimate provided by the GLM served as the primary basis of statistical inference.

    [2] - A superiority analysis comparing the observed ITT response to thg null hypothesized rate. Subjects were imputed as non-responders for the primary endpoint if they: withdrew prior to Month 6 of maintenance phase; had a dose increase relative to the therapeutic dose during maintenance phase; Month 6 mUFC data were missing or inadequate; had received radiation therapy and exhibited no rebound increase in mUFC following withdrawal of levoketoconazole immediately after the end of maintenance phase
    [3] - The one-sided p-value calculated was based on a null hypothesis that true response is less than or equal 0.20.
