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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess whether the clinical efficacy of RPC1063 is superior to interferon (IFN) β-1a (Avonex®) in reducing the rate of clinical relapses in patients with Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted in the United States, Eastern and Western Europe and New Zealand. 1346 participants were randomized from 152 sites in 20 countries,

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Participant were randomized 1:1:1 ratio to one of three treatment groups. Randomization was stratified by baseline Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score (≤ 3.5, > 3.5) and country.

    Roles blinded
    Subject, Investigator, Monitor, Data analyst, Assessor
    Blinding implementation details
    A “dual assessor” approach was used to evaluate efficacy and safety to prevent potential unblinding as result of observed efficacy, AEs, or laboratory changes. Each site had 2 investigators: a principal or treating investigator and a blinded evaluator who was the EDSS evaluator. The EDSS evaluator was responsible for the administering the EDSS and did not have access to other patient data prior to EDSS data when performing exams.

Based on scores in these 8 functional systems, an overall score ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to MS) is assigned. Participants with EDSS scores of 0.0 to 4.5 are fully ambulatory; patients with EDSS scores of 5.0 to 9.5 have impaired ambulation.

    Primary: Adjusted Annualized Relapse Rate (ARR) During the Treatment Period

    End point title
    Adjusted Annualized Relapse Rate (ARR) During the Treatment Period
    End point description
    The relapse rate was based on confirmed relapses. Relapses that met the clinical criteria for a relapse and were accompanied by objective neurological worsening (based upon EDSS evaluated by an independent, blinded EDSS evaluator) were confirmed by the treating investigator. A relapse was defined as new or recurrent neurological symptoms preceded by a relatively stable or improving neurological state of at least 30 days (less than 30 days following the onset of a protocol-defined relapse was considered part of the same relapse). Symptoms must have persisted for >24 hours and should not be attributable to confounding clinical factors. The adjusted annualized relapse rate is based on the Poisson regression model, adjusted for region (Eastern Europe vs Rest of World), age at Baseline, and the baseline number of GdE lesions, and included the natural log transformation of time on study as an offset term. The Intent to Treat Population was included.

    Time to 3-month Confirmed Disability Worsening on Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)
    End point description
    The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is an ordinal scale instrument widely accepted to evaluate disability status at a particular time and disability progression over time in patients and MS clinical studies. The disability level is based on a neurological examination to obtain scores in seven neurologic functional systems (FSs) and an ambulation score that are combined to determine the overall EDSS score (step) ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to MS). The FSs are Visual, Brain Stem, Pyramidal, Cerebellar, Sensory, Bowel & Bladder, and Cerebral. Ambulation is measured based on if restriction is present and assisted required as well as minimum distance level achieved.

    The MSFC-LCLA is a battery including the following 4 individual scales: • The Timed 25-Foot Walk is an ambulation measure of walking 25 feet with time taken recorded in seconds • The 9-Hole Peg Test (9HPT) is a quantitative measure of upper extremity (arm and hand) function • The Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) is a measure of executive cognitive function that assesses processing speed, flexibility, and calculation ability • Low-Contrast Letter Acuity Test (LCLA) used a standardized set of charts to assess low contrast visual acuity Z-scores were calculated for the MSFC for each component and averaged to create an overall composite score. A score of +1 indicates that, on average, an individual scored 1 standard deviation (SD) better than the reference population and a score of -1 indicates that an individual scored 1 SD worse than the reference population. The ITT population consisted of all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study medication.

    The MSQOL-54 is a multidimensional health-related QOL measure that combines both generic and MS-specific items into a single instrument. The instrument generates 12 subscales along with two summary scores, and two additional single-item measures. The subscales are: physical function, role limitations-physical, role limitations-emotional, pain, emotional well-being, energy, health perceptions, social function, cognitive function, health distress, overall quality of life, and sexual function. The summary scores are the physical health composite summary and the mental health composite summary. The change for the summary scores for the physical health and mental health composite, including statistical analysis are reported. The single item measures are satisfaction with sexual function and change in health. Each domain has a range from 0 to 100 where higher means better.

    Number of Subjects with Treatment Emergent Adverse Events
    End point description
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the investigational product (IP). An AE can be any unfavorable or unintended sign, including an abnormal laboratory finding, symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of an IP whether or not considered related to the IP. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) = an AE with a start date on or after the date of first dose of IP, up through the lst dose of IP in the open-label extension Study RPC01-3001 for those who continued into the open-label extension. A serious AE (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence or effect that results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing inpatient hospitalization. The investigator assessed the severity of AEs as mild, moderate, or severe. Safety population.

    Time to 6-month Confirmed Disability Worsening on Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)
    End point description
    The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is an ordinal scale instrument widely accepted to evaluate disability status at a particular time and disability progression over time in patients and MS clinical studies. The disability level is based on a neurological examination to obtain scores in seven neurologic functional systems (FSs) and an ambulation score that are combined to determine the overall EDSS score (step) ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to MS). The FSs are Visual, Brain Stem, Pyramidal, Cerebellar, Sensory, Bowel & Bladder, and Cerebral. Ambulation is measured based on if restriction is present and assisted required as well as minimum distance level achieved.
