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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the contribution on lung function (as measured by trough forced expiratory volume in one second [FEV1]) of fluticasone furoate (FF) 100 mcg to the FF/vilanterol (VI) 100/25 mcg QD combination by comparison of the latter with VI 25 mcg QD and the safety of FF/VI 100/25 mcg QD over a 12-week treatment period in subjects with COPD.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This study was conducted at 238 sites. Participants (par) with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) meeting eligibility criteria at screening were enrolled in a 2-week, single-blind (placebo) run-in period to obtain baseline use of albuterol (salbutamol), COPD symptom scores and disease stability.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Par meeting continuation criteria during the run-in period were randomized (1:1) to receive FF/VI 100/25 µg QD or VI 25 µg QD. Of the 2423 par screened, 1622 were randomized. 1620 received at least one dose of double-blind study medication and comprised the Intent-to-Treat population.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: Eligible participants (par.) at screening entered a 2-week, single-blind placebo run-in period (RIP) to obtain Baseline assessments of albuterol (salbutamol) use, COPD symptom scores and disease stability. At the end of the RIP, par. meeting the continuation criteria entered the double-blind treatment period (TP) of 24 weeks (Wk).

    Notes
    [2] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: A total of 2,423 par were consented for the study, of whom 158 were withdrawn during the Pre-Screen period. A total of 2,265 par were screened, of whom 1,622 were randomized; 1,620 received at least one dose of double-blind study medication and comprised the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population.
    [3] - 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: Of the 1622 subjects who completed period 1, 2 subjects were randomized in error and were not included as starting period 2.
    [4] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: Subjects (756) were considered to have completed the study if they attended the last clinic visit (Visit 7), had a follow-up phone contact and did not have an early withdrawal visit. Subjects were considered to have completed the treatment period (754) if they attended the last clinic visit (Visit 7) and did not withdraw at the visit and had an exposure stop date on or after the day prior to Visit 7.

    End point description
    Pulmonary function was measured by forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled from the lungs in one second. Trough FEV1 measurements were taken electronically by spirometry on Days 2, 14, 28, 56 and 84. BL was defined as the mean of the two assessments made 30 minutes pre-dose and immediately pre-dose on Treatment Day 1. Trough FEV1 was defined as the mean of the FEV1 values obtained 23 and 24 hours after previous morning's dosing. Change from BL was calculated as the average at each visit minus the BL value. Analysis was performed using a repeated measures model with covariates of treatment, reversibility status (stratum), baseline, Region, Day by Baseline, and Day by treatment interactions.

Par recorded the number of occasions supplemental albuterol/salbutamol or oxitropium bromide used over the previous 24 hours and any medical problems that they had experienced and any medication used to treat these medical problems over the previous 24 hours. Rescue-free 24-hour periods are defined as the 24-hour periods in which the rescue medication was not used. The percentage of such 24-hour periods are summarized for the entire treatment period (12 weeks).
