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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 is to evaluate the immunogenicity of natalizumab 300 mg subcutaneous (SC) administered to subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The secondary objectives are to evaluate the safety of natalizumab SC injections and to evaluate the efficacy of natalizumab SC injections on relapses and on new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesions.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to evaluations being performed for eligibility. Subjects were given adequate time to review the information in the informed consent and were allowed to ask, and have answered, questions concerning all portions of the conduct of the study. Through the informed consent process each subject was made aware of the purpose of the study, the procedures, the benefits and risks of the study, the discomforts and the precautions taken. Any side effects or other health issues occurring during the study were followed up by the study doctor. Subjects were able to stop taking part in the study at any time without giving any reason.

    Number of Subjects With Persistent Anti-natalizumab Antibodies Over 48 Weeks [1]
    End point description
    Persistent anti-natalizumab antibodies are defined as 2 positive anti-natalizumab test results separated by at least 6 weeks, with at least 1 positive test result occurring at or after the Week 24 Visit. Due to early termination, assessments were completed at screening, post-baseline Week 12, and at Safety Follow-up (12 weeks after last dose administered).

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No statistical analyses of the data were performed, since only 2 subjects were enrolled prior to study termination. Data were listed only.

Clinical relapse is defined as new or recurrent neurologic symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting at least 24 hours, and accompanied by new objective neurologic findings upon examination by the Neurologist. The subject must have had objective signs on the neurologist’s examination that confirm the event.
