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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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
    The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that the efficacy of secukinumab 150 mg sc or 300 mg sc, at Week 24 was superior to placebo based on proportion of patients achieving American College of Rheumatology 20 (ACR20) response in patients with active PsA.
    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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Patients were randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms (1:1:1) and planned to be treated for 156 weeks. Placebo non-responders had the option to be re-randomized at Week 16 and placebo responders had the option to be re-randomized at Week 24. Thus, of the 137 original placebo patients 64 were re-randomized to AIN457 150 mg and 65 to AIN457 300 mg.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A screening period (SCR) running up to 10 weeks before randomization was used to assess eligibility.
