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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease Yes
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of riociguat administered 3 times a day (TID) as compared with placebo in terms of change in the mRSS from baseline to Week 52.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Key secondary objective:
    • CRISS at week 52, consisting of five variables: mRSS, FVC % predicted, physician and patient global assessments, and HAQ-DI score (from SHAQ patient reported outcome)
    Further secondary objective:
    • HAQ-DI Domain (separately from the SHAQ as part of the calculation of the CRISS algorithm).
    • Patient’s global assessment
    • Physician’s global assessment
    • Change in FVC (forced vital capacity) % predicted
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1.Written informed consent
    2. Men or women aged 18 years and older
    3. Systemic sclerosis, as defined by ACR/EULAR 2013 criteria
    4. dcSSc according to the LeRoy criteria, ie, skin fibrosis proximal to the elbows and knees in addition to acral fibrosis .
    5. Disease duration of ≤ 18 months (defined as time from the first non−Raynaud’s phenomenon manifestation)
    6. ≥ 10 and ≤ 22 mRSS units at the screening visit
    7. FVC ≥ 45% of predicted at screening
    8. DLCO ≥ 40% of predicted (hemoglobin-corrected) at screening
    9. Negative serum pregnancy test in a woman of childbearing potential at the screening visit
    10. Women of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception when sexually active. “Adequate contraception” is defined as any combination of at least 2 effective methods of birth control, of which at least 1 is a physical barrier (e.g. condom with hormonal contraception like implants or combined oral contraceptives, condom with intrauterine devices). This applies since signing of the informed consent form until 30 (+5) days after the last study drug administration.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Limited cutaneous SSc at screening
    2. Major surgery (including joint surgery) within 8 weeks prior to screening
    3. Hepatic insufficiency classified as Child-Pugh C
    • Patients with isolated AST or ALT >3xULN or bilirubin >2xULN can be included in the trial under the condition of additional monitoring during the trial
    4. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 15 mL/min/1.73m2 (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula) or on dialysis at the screening visit. Patients entering the trial with eGFR 15-29 mL/min/1.73m2 will be undergo additional monitoring of renal function
    - Because the MDRD formula is thought to cause significant bias for Japanese patients, the equation for Japanese patients is: 194 x serum creatinine (mg/dL) -1.094 x Age -0.287 x 0.739 (if female).
    5. Any prior history of renal crisis
    6. Sitting SBP < 95 mmHg at the screening visit
    7. Sitting heart rate < 50 beats per minute (BPM) at the screening visit
    8. Left ventricular ejection fraction < 40% prior to screening
    9. Any form of pulmonary hypertension as determined by right heart catheterization
    10. Pulmonary disease with FVC < 45% of predicted or DLCO (hemoglobin-corrected) < 40% of predicted at screening
    11. Active state of hemoptysis or pulmonary hemorrhage, including those events managed by bronchial artery embolization
    12. Not permitted prior and concomitant medication (updated)
    13. pregnant or breast feeding women
    14. Women of childbearing potential not willing to use adequate contraception and not willing to agree to 4-weekly pregnancy testing from Visit 1 (first administration of study drug) onwards until 30 (+5) days after last study drug intake.

    Key secondary endpoint:
