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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 main objective of the study is to demonstrate the utility and safety of the IFN-? ELISPOT marker for the stratification of kidney transplant recipients into low and high IS regimens. The enrichment study will test non-inferiority of low IS regimen compared to high IS regimen, assuming 10% of BPAR at 6-months in the control group, and allowing a non-inferiority limit of maximum 15%.
    Protection of trial subjects
    An external Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) was responsible for periodic safety review and guided by predetermined protocol–defined stopping criteria.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Low immunological risk subjects were eligible to participate if >18 years of age and receiving a primary single kidney transplant. Enrolment was targeted to 673 patients, with 302 E− transplant patients randomized to low or SOC immunosuppression. the trial was terminated when 167 were recruited. In all, 101 patients were randomized and followed

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    All subjects freely gave written informed consent prior to participation, including informed consent for the screening procedures to establish subject eligibility. Screened Patients: 186 Screening failure: 19 (10 Invalid ELISPOT; 1 Pre transplant DSA; 1 Early graft loss; 7 Consent withdrawal)

    Incidence of clinical and subclinical BPAR
    End point description
    When E+ patients were also analyzed, at 6 months, E+ showed significantly higher BPAR (both with and without BL lesions) than E−/SOC patients. Similarly, at 12 months, BPAR rates were significantly higher within E+ and E−/LI patients as compared to E−/SOC, especially in patients remaining on protocol. 12-month cumulative BPAR between the three groups showed the same differences both when assessed PP or ITT (Figure 2C-D). Likewise clinical BPAR, both E+ and E−/LI groups developed significantly higher incidence of sc-BPAR than E−/SOC.

    HLA DQ eplet MM risk score for clinical BPAR between study groups
    End point description
    Mean class-II eplet mismatches (MM) (DRB1+DQ), and particularly at DQ locus, were significantly higher in patients developing BPAR than in those that did not.However, these differences were only observed among the two E− study groups. A threshold o f DQ ( A1/B1) e plet m ismatches ≥10 defined high eplet risk for BPAR with the highest accuracy within all E−patients.
