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   43866   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7287   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 ).

    Notes
    [1] - 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: Baseline characteristics are based on the patients who were treated after successfully completing the screening period and received at least one dose of the trial medication.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    10 Jun 2014
    By Amendment 1 the assessment of lesion size by FA over time (absolute and as change from baseline) was added as further efficacy endpoint. Further, it was clarified that cancers of newhistology or exacerbation of an existing cancer were always considered an SAE. Inhaled corticosteroids were not permitted as concomitant therapy. It was clarified that informed consent for PK evaluations of the eye could be obtained after Visit 1 but prior to aqueous humour sampling and that the last PK sample for plasma evaluation was to be taken at Visit 7. Moreover, it was specified that myopia of more than 8 diopters in the study eye is an exclusion criterion also if corrected by laser operation (Exclusion Criterion 1) and it was clarified that cardiac conditions as exclusion criterion also include tachycardia (Exclusion Criterion 16). In addition, the wording “known allergy to fluorescein sodium for injection“ in Exclusion Criterion 6 was changed to “known allergy or contra-indication to contrast agents employed in study”. It was added that before Visit 6 the administration times of the preceding two days are to be recorded. In the section on the definition of AESIs (Section 9.5.3.2.1), QTc was precisely defined as QTcF prolongation. It was added that thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) was measured at the screening visit. It was detailed that in addition to the AE reports of the investigator, quantitative ECG data and qualitative findings in ECGs will be transferred from the VRC and analysed; the VCR will also provide indicators for the readability of the ECGs. Quantitative and qualitative ECG data from the ECG reading centre were reported descriptively.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    The trial was prematurely discontinued as the preliminary data showed that the likelihood to meet the trial’s primary efficacy endpoint would have been low even if the patient recruitment had been continued.
