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   43843   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The main objectives for this study is to see how safe Zibotentan is in patients with scleroderma and kidney damage and whether it has any effect on their kidney function
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objectives for this study are:
    •To test whether the zibotentan is safe in patients who have had scleroderma renal crisis (not requiring dialysis) in the last 12 months, and whether it improves their kidney function. (ZEBRA 2A)
    •To see how patients with scleroderma and kidney damage (not on dialysis) respond when they stop taking Zibotentan after 6 months of treatment. (ZEBRA 1 and 2A)
    •To explore how Zibotentan affects other new “biomarkers” of kidney damage in the blood and urine of patients in the study.
    To see how kidney damage from scleroderma affects blood levels of Zibotentan, compared with people with normal kidney function.
    •To test a single dose of Zibotentan in patients with severe kidney damage from scleroderma who are on dialysis and see how well it is tolerated, how safe it is and how blood levels of the drug differ from people with normal kidney function.

    Inclusion criteria (all substudies)
    1)Patients with either diffuse or limited systemic sclerosis of any disease duration
    2)Male or female age 18 or older.
    3)Women must be either surgically sterilized or post-menopausal or use a highly effective method of birth control.
    4)Females of childbearing potential and males must be willing to use one highly effective and one other method of contraception from the time consent is signed until 6 weeks after treatment discontinuation.
    5)Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to being registered for trial treatment. NOTE: Subjects are considered not of child bearing potential if they are surgically sterile (i.e. they have undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral ophorectomy) or they are postmenopausal.
    6)Provision of signed and dated informed consent prior to any study specific procedures.
    Specific inclusion criteria for ZEBRA1
    1)Patients with CKD2 or CKD3A, with GFR>45 mL/min
    WHO definitions for chronic kidney disease will be used in this study.
    Stage 2: mildly reduced kidney function AND already known to have some kidney damage or disease. People with an eGFR of 60-89 (inclusive) without any known kidney damage or disease are not considered to have CKD2/3.
    Stage 3: moderately reduced kidney function. (With or without a known kidney disease. For example, an elderly person with ageing kidneys may have reduced kidney function without a specific known kidney disease.) 45 mL/min to 59 mL/min (3A) 30 mL/min to 44 ml/min (3B)
    2)Patients who have not had a renal crisis within the previous 12 months at Visit 0.
    Specific inclusion criteria for For ZEBRA 2A and B.
    1)Patients who have experienced a Scleroderma renal crisis. Scleroderma renal crisis will be defined as follows, requiring both of:
    •A new onset of blood pressure >150/85 obtained at least twice over a consecutive 24 hour period. This blood pressure is chosen because it is that defined by the New York Heart Association as significant hypertension.
    •Decline in renal function as defined by an increase of at least 10% from a baseline serum creatinine measured within the previous 12 months. When possible a repeat serum creatinine should be obtained to corroborate the initial result.
    In order to corroborate further the occurrence of acute renal crisis, it would be desirable to have any of the following, if available:
    •Microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia on blood smear
    •Retinopathy typical of acute hypertensive crisis
    •New onset of urinary RBCs (excluding other causes)
    •Flash pulmonary oedema
    •Oliguria or anuria
    •Renal biopsy findings consistent with SRC
    .
    Specific inclusion criteria for ZEBRA2A
    Patients should have experienced an SRC within 1-12 months of the study start. Patients should not be receiving renal dialysis
    Specific inclusion criteria for ZEBRA2B
    Patients should be undergoing regular renal dialysis after experiencing an SRC – any form of dialysis is acceptable.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Exclusion criteria (all substudies)
    1.Previous use of an endothelin receptor antagonist within 3 months of the study start
    2.Significant abnormalities in liver function testing (ALT, ALP, Bilirubin) more than three times upper limit of normal)
    3.Patients with body weight <40kg.
    4.Patients with conditions which prevent compliance with the protocol or failure to adhere to therapy.
    5.Patients with any other life threatening condition.
    6.Patients with known hypersensitivity to Zibotentan or its excipients
    7.Previous history of epilepsy or other CNS AEs, neurologic symptoms or signs consistent with acute or evolving spinal cord compression, and CNS metastases
    8.Patients with a baseline left ventricular ejection fraction < 40% (prior to any scleroderma renal crisis), patients with acute myocardial infarction within six months or patients who are judged by the trial clinician to be at unacceptable risk from cardiac complications.
    9.History of chronic alcohol or drug abuse or any condition associated with poor compliance as judged by the investigator
    10.Patients receiving cyclosporin A within 1 week of screening or expecting to receive this agent during the study.
    11.Patients who have received an investigational agent in the month prior to screening. These patients may be eligible after a month of washout period (as long as they are still within 1-12 months of the onset of the Scleroderma renal crisis for ZEBRA2A).
    12.Active malignancy or neoplastic disease in the previous 12 months
    13.Women who rely on oestrogen-containing contraceptives (due to potential drug interaction with Zibotentan).
    14.Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
