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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To find the optimal dose of oral soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator BAY1021189 for Phase III that can be given in addition to standard diuretic and comorbidity treatment by characterizing the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamic effects, and pharmacokinetics, and detecting a significant dose-response relationship in at least one of the two primary end points change in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP) and change of left atrial volume at 12 weeks in subjects with worsening chronic heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The conduct of this clinical study met all local legal and regulatory requirements. The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization guideline E6: Good Clinical Practice. Before entering the study, the informed consent form was read by and explained to all subjects. Participating subjects signed informed consent form and could withdraw from the study at any time without any disadvantage and without having to provide a reason for this decision. Only investigators qualified by training and experience were selected as appropriate experts to investigate the study drug.

    Subject analysis set description
    Pooled 2.5 mg up to 10 mg (N = 195). The three highest dose arms (BAY1021189 2.5mg, 2.5-5mg, and 2.5-10mg) were pooled and used for the primary analysis of the primary end point. This Pooled 2.5 mg up to 10 mg group is serving as "Reporting Group" for primary analysis instead of "Sub-group analysis", however "Sub-group analysis" is chosen as analysis set type because there is no proper option provided in the database.

    Statistical analysis description
    For the primary analysis, the three highest active treatment groups BAY1021189 (2.5mg, 2.5 to 5mg, 2.5 to 10mg) were pooled and compared to the assigned placebo treatment group with a one-sided two-sample t-test. The Hochberg procedure was used to test the two primary end points at study-wise significance level of 5%. Results are reported including 90% confidence intervals (CI) for the difference of means. The difference between the comparison groups is difference of means on the log scale.
