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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    Primary Efficacy Objective: Compare the incidences of the composite endpoints of stroke, systemic embolic event (SEE), myocardial infarction (MI) and cardiovascular (CV) mortality between the edoxaban group and the enoxaparin/warfarin group from randomization to end of follow up (FU). Primary Safety Objective: Compare the incidence of the composite endpoints of major and clinically-relevant non-major (CRNM) bleeding between the edoxaban group and the enoxaparin/warfarin group from the first administration of study drug to end of treatment + 3 days.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in compliance with the protocol, the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki, the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) consolidated Guideline E6 for Good Clinical Practice (GCP) (CPMP/ICH/135/95), and applicable regulatory requirements. Subjects, after having the study explained to them by the investigator or designee, gave voluntary and signed informed consent before participating in any study-specific procedures. For subjects in the United States (US), consent required for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was included in the single, main informed consent form (ICF). The study protocol, amendments (if any), the informed consent/assent form(s), and information sheets were approved by the appropriate and applicable Independent Ethics Committees (IECs) or Institutional Review Boards (IRBs). An independent Data Monitoring committee (DMC) was created to further protect the rights, safety, and well-being of subjects who were participating in this study by monitoring their progress and results. The independent DMC was comprised of qualified scientists, who were not Investigators in the study and not otherwise directly associated with the Sponsor.

    Edoxaban was supplied in 30 mg tablets (yellow) in child resistant blister wallets of 42 tablets. Subjects taking the full dose of edoxaban for the study will take 60 mg QD (two 30 mg tablets once daily). Subjects with a dose reduction took 30 mg (one 30 mg tablet once daily) when required by the protocol dose reduction criteria. All dispensing was done via the IXRS. In addition 15 mg tablets of edoxaban (orange or yellow) were supplied in child resistant blister wallets of 42 tablets to be used as transition kits when necessary.

    Dosage and administration details
    Warfarin, was the active control and was provided by the Sponsor in dosage strengths of 1.0 mg (brown) and 2.5 mg (green). Individual doses were made by combining the strengths provided. Investigators determined the dose strength(s) of warfarin necessary to achieve the prescribed dose, and the quantity dispensed was determined by the dose. Subjects randomized to the warfarin treatment group were dispensed active warfarin. These subjects could also have been dispensed enoxaparin. All dispensing was done via the IXRS. Should a dose change be required between visits, additional quantity and/or strengths were dispensed via the IXRS.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as events that started on or after the first dose of study drug or start prior to but then worsen after the first dose of study drug, through 30 days after the last dose of study drug.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    This table includes counts of patients in the safety analysis set. Patients who experienced more than one episode of an adverse event are counted only once within a preferred term. Patients who experienced more than one adverse event within a system organ class are counted once for each preferred term, but only once for the system organ class.
