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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Part A: To determine the pharmacokinetics of GWP42006 and human metabolites, 7-hydroxy-cannabidivarin (7-OH-CBDV) and 6-hydroxy-cannabidivarin (6-OH-CBDV), in the presence of other antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GWP42006 compared with placebo, in the presence of other AEDs. To evaluate the effects of GWP42006 on plasma concentrations of concomitant AEDs. Part B: To evaluate the efficacy of GWP42006, compared with placebo, as add-on therapy to treat inadequately controlled focal seizures.
    Protection of trial subjects

    This trial consisted of 2 parts. Part A included participants who had focal seizures despite prior treatment with at least 2 AEDs and who were currently taking 1 to 3 AEDs. Part B included participants who had well-documented histories of focal seizures despite prior treatment with at least 2 AEDs and who were currently taking 1 to 3 AEDs.

    Arm description
    Part A consisted of a 2-week baseline period and a 2-week treatment period. Participants were required to attend 6 trial visits, with a follow-up call 4 weeks after the last dose of study drug. GWP42006 was taken orally, 400 milligrams (mg) twice daily for 2 weeks, by participants who were categorized into 1 of 3 groups according to their concomitant AED regimen at trial entry. Group 1 included participants who took inducer AEDs (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, primidone, or phenytoin), but did not take inhibitor AEDs (valproic acid). Group 2 included participants who took inhibitor AEDs (valproic acid), but who did not take inducer AEDs (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, primidone, or phenytoin). Group 3 included participants on AEDs that were neither inducers nor inhibitors.

    Percent Reduction From Baseline In Focal Seizure Frequency In Participants Taking GWP42006 Compared With Placebo During The Treatment Period [1]
    End point description
    This end point reports the evaluation of the efficacy of GWP42006, compared with placebo, as add-on therapy to treat inadequately controlled focal seizures (defined as: focal motor seizures without impairment of consciousness or awareness; focal seizures with impairment of consciousness or awareness, and focal seizures evolving to bilateral convulsive seizures). The reported outcome variable was the change from baseline in focal seizure frequency during the treatment period of the trial. Due to non-normality of the seizure data, negative binomial regression analyses were conducted on the sum of the seizure counts during the treatment period; treatment ratios <1 indicate a difference in favor of GWP42006. The intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis set, all participants who were randomized in Part B, was used in the analysis of this end point.

    Participants Who Experienced Treatment-Related, Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
    End point description
    For both Parts A and B, an AE was defined as any new unfavorable/unintended signs/symptoms (including abnormal laboratory findings), or diagnosis or worsening of a pre-existing condition, which was present following baseline screening and the post-treatment, safety follow-up visit, which may or may not have been considered to be related to the study drug. Any event that was the result of a trial procedure was to be recorded as an AE. A TEAE was defined as an AE with a start date on or after the first dose of study drug. If an AE had a partial start date and it was unclear from the partial date (or the stop date) whether the AE started prior to or post first dose of the study drug, then the AE was considered treatment emergent. An AE was considered treatment-related if the plausibility relationship to the study drug was recorded on the case report form as ‘yes’. A summary of serious and other non-serious AEs, regardless of causality, is located in the Adverse Events module.

Group 1 included participants who took inducer AEDs (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, primidone, or phenytoin), but did not take inhibitor AEDs (valproic acid). Group 2 included participants who took inhibitor AEDs (valproic acid), but who did not take inducer AEDs (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, primidone, or phenytoin). Group 3 included participants on AEDs that were neither inducers nor inhibitors.
