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 the pharmacodynamics of ACT-334441, its safety and tolerability profile in adult systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) subjects.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Prior to the start of the study, each study site consulted an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB), i.e., a review panel that was responsible for ensuring the protection of the rights, safety, and well being of human subjects involved in a clinical investigation. The sponsor and the investigators ensured that the study was conducted in full compliance with International Council for Harmonisation (ICH)-Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines, the principles of the “Declaration of Helsinki” and with the laws and regulations of the countries in which the research was conducted.
    Background therapy
    Standard of care therapies for SLE were allowed

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    25 Mar 2015
    Summary of most relevant changes: • Study-specific stopping rules per FDA recommendations were introduced, • ECG discharge criteria from hospital on Day 1 and on the first day of re-initiation following treatment interruption were clarified, • Respiratory system criteria for interruption / premature discontinuation of study treatment per FDA recommendations were revised, • The safety endpoint/variable Occurrence of treatment-emergent decrease of FEV1 or FVC was modified, • Analysis of pulmonary safety events was to include treatment-emergent decrease of FEV1 or FVC to < 85% of baseline values instead of < 80% of baseline values, • Since at Visit 3 and re-initiation visits, study drug was not to be allocated by the IRT system, the compliance could not be calculated automatically in the eCRF. During these visits, a compliance review based on study drug accountability was to be performed by the investigator (or delegate) and recorded in the eCRF, • In case of no medical justification available for study treatment interruption, compliance < 80% was to be reported as a protocol deviation, • Clarifications were added in the laboratory sections, • In order to shorten the time window between assessments during the follow-up period (at 6 and 16 weeks after last dose of study treatment intake), a follow-up assessment via telephone was added at 11 weeks after last dose of study treatment intake to collect SAEs and pregnancy test results, • Informed Consent Form was amended to reflect the changes introduced by the amendment.
