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   43395   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7179   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 ).

    Change From Baseline in CIDP Total Adjusted Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) Score (Total Set)
    End point description
    The INCAT score is a 10-point scale that covers the functionality of legs and arms, and has been successfully used to measure treatment effects in various CIDP studies. Scores for arm disability range from 0 ("No upper limb problems") to 5 ("Inability to use either arm for any purposeful movement"), and scores for leg disability range from 0 ("Walking not affected") to 5 ("Restricted to wheelchair, unable to stand and walk a few steps with help"). The INCAT (total) score is the sum of these 2 scores and ranges from 0 to 10. For the "adjusted" INCAT score, changes in the function of the upper limbs from 0 (normal) to 1 (minor symptoms) or from 1 to 0 were not recorded as deterioration or improvement because these changes are not considered clinically significant.

    Change From Baseline in Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale (R-ODS) (Total Set)
    End point description
    The R-ODS is a recently published outcome measure that captures activity and social participation in subjects with Guillain-Barré Syndrome, CIDP, and monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance. The 24-item questionnaire covers a wide range of tasks of daily life that are each to be rated as “impossible to perform”, “able to perform with difficulty”, or “easy to perform” (scale of 0 - 2 points respectively). Items are sorted in order of increasing difficulty to perform, based on data from subjects with peripheral neuropathies (chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, Guillain-Barré Syndrome, or monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance) and subjects recruited at the university outpatient clinics of Rotterdam and Maastricht.

    The hand-held Vigorimeter from Martin (Tuttlingen, Germany) is a device that measures the strength of small muscles in the hand, ie, grip strength. The subject squeezes a rubber bulb lying between the palm of the hand and the thumb and index fingers. The pressure is recorded via a rubber tube on a nanometer and expressed in kilopascal (kPa). At each assessment, the subject squeezes 3 times with each hand.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    31 Jul 2014
    •Study design modified to require direct transition from the completion visit of study IgPro20_3003 to the Week 1 (baseline) visit of this study. •Inclusion criteria modified to define the study population (subjects who completed the SC Period or successfully recovered from CIDP relapse during the SC Period of the IgPro20_3003 study). •Exclusion criteria modified because of study design change, ie, direct transition from study IgPro20_3003. •IgPro20 dose reduced to 0.2 g/kg bw; if CIDP relapse occurs, subject will have the dose adjusted up to 0.4 g/kg bw; subject must successfully recover within 4 weeks (±2 days) in order to continue in the study. Dose justification and maximum volume per infusion site increased to 50 mL, as tolerated. •Subjects enrolled under the original protocol will be re-consented for Amendment 1 and started on Amendment 1 dose requirements and procedures at Week 25. If a subject enrolled under the original protocol, relapses and successfully recovers from the relapse prior to Week 25, the subject will remain on 0.4 g/kg bw for the remainder of the study. If the subject relapses again, they will be discontinued. •Week 17 and Week 41 visits converted to dispensing and inventory only visits. •Viral safety testing deleted, only retention sample collected for possible future testing if a suspected treatment-emergent viral infection occurs. •Biomarker text modified to delete anonymization of samples. This should not have been required in the original protocol, because no genetics will be tested. Biomarker results will need to be correlated with the subject’s treatment in both studies and other test results in order to benefit understanding of CIDP disease progression and how to treat it. Biomarker sample collection is optional for Japan. •Missing efficacy (R-ODS) and HRQL (EQ-5D) instruments added to Section 8 and the Appendix, respectively. •Statement added that IgG levels will not be disclosed to the site or CSLB until the IgP
    22 Jun 2015
    •Number of subjects increased to approximately 80 subjects. •IVRS language updated to more closely align with the IgPro20_3003 protocol. •Biomarker language modified to confirm that a biomarker sample is required to be collected upon a CIDP relapse, either at a scheduled visit, or an unscheduled visit whichever is more timely. An unscheduled laboratory kit should be used for biomarker sample collection for both scheduled and unscheduled visits.
    08 Dec 2015
    •Adverse reactions were updated per current safety information. •IVRS language updated to clarify volume needed for each infusion session.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
