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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Safety endpoints will include the incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and IRRs; changes from baseline clinical laboratory tests; changes in vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature) during and post-infusion relative to pre-infusion values; physical examination findings; use of concomitant medications/therapies; and characterization of ADAs, including seroconversion rate, time to eroconversion, median and peak immunoglobulin G (IgG) ADA titer, time to peak IgG ADA titer, and tolerization. The impact of ADAs on safety endpoints will also be explored. Further characterization of ADAs, including inhibitory and/or neutralizing ADAs and measurement of specific ADA subtypes (e.g., IgE), may be performed, if appropriate.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Screening will occur within 21 days.Eligible patients will receive intravenous infusions of sebelipase alfa for up to 3 years. All patients will receive a starting dose of 1 mg·kg-1 qow. Dose increases (up to 3 mg·kg-1 qw) will be permitted during the treatment period. The follow-up period will be a minimum of 30 days following the last administration of sebelipase alfa.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Survival endpoints will include proportion of subjects surviving to 12, 18 and 24 months of age, and other timepoints, as data permit, and estimated median age at death. Survival rates and median age at death derived from this study will be compared to rates/times reported in the literature and previous studies. Other efficacy endpoints will include changes from baseline in percentiles and/or z-scores for WFA, WFL/WFH, and LFA/HFA and the corresponding growth status indicators of underweight, wasting, and stunting, as well as changes from baseline in z-scores for head circumference-for-age (HCFA) and mid-upper arm circumference-for-age (MUACFA); changes from baseline in aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and ALT; normalization of hemoglobin levels without requirement for blood transfusion; and change from baseline in serum ferritin.
    Exploratory efficacy endpoints will include changes and/or percent changes from baseline (or first available measurement if baseline data are unavailable) in alkaline phosphatase, gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT), albumin, and bilirubin (direct, indirect, and total); liver and spleen size/volume, as measured by ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); hepatomegaly and/or splenomegaly (abdominal girth, liver size, and spleen size) by physical examination; platelet levels; and serum lipid levels (total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein [HDL], low density lipoprotein [LDL]). Development will also be assessed using Denver II developmental screening test total score and four functional area scores (fine motor-adaptive, gross motor, personal-social, and language skills).
    The impact of anti-sebelipase alfa antibodies (ADAs) on efficacy endpoints will also be explored.
    The PK endpoint will include maximum observed serum concentration (Cmax), as data permit. The impact of ADAs on SBC-sebelipase alfa PK will also be explored.
    Exploratory disease-related biomarkers, which may be identified based on emerging information from the sebelipase alfa development program and scientific literature, will be analyzed by changes or percent changes from baseline.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Screening will occur within 21 days.Eligible patients will receive intravenous infusions of sebelipase alfa for up to 3 years. All patients will receive a starting dose of 1 mg·kg-1 qow. Dose increases (up to 3 mg·kg-1 qw) will be permitted during the treatment period. The follow-up period will be a minimum of 30 days following the last administration of sebelipase alfa.
