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 ).

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A 52-Week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of subcutaneous secukinumab to demonstrate efficacy as assessed by palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (ppPASI) at 16 Weeks of treatment, compared to placebo, and to assess long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy in subjects with moderate to severe chronic palmoplantar pustular psoriasis – amended with an optional extension treatment period of up to a total of 148 weeks

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective was to demonstrate the superiority of secukinumab 150 mg s.c. and/or 300 mg s.c. in patients with moderate to severe chronic PPP at Week 16 with respect to the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 response rate (ppPASI 75) compared to placebo.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

    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: Patients originally randomized to Placebo (in Period 1) and considered non-responders at Week 16 were re-randomized to AIN457 150 mg or AIN457 300 mg for the subsequent periods leading to inconsistencies when reporting the data.

    palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 response rate (ppPASI 75) at Week 16 (period 1)
    End point description
    The primary endpoint was assessed by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieved a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to Week 16 was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total maximum score is 72.

    ppPASI: absolute change from baseline to Week 16
    End point description
    A secondary endpoint was assessed by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (ppPASI). The mean change of ppPASI score from Baseline to Week 16 was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total maximum score is 72.

    End point description
    A secondary endpoint was assessed as response rate of patients to treatment measured by the palmoplantar pustulosis Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (ppPASI 75). The percentage of subjects who achieved a 75% reduction in ppPASI score from Baseline to each post-baseline visit was measured. The ppPASI is a modification of the PASI score and adjusted for palmoplantar pustular psoriasis by classifying and scoring erythema, scaling (desquamation) and pustules/vesicles. Both palms and both plants are scored from 0 to 4. The extent of involvement of each region of the body is scored from 0 to 6. The total maximum score is 72.
