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
    The objectives of this study were: - To evaluate the efficacy of fixed doses of SD-809 to reduce the severity of abnormal involuntary movements of TD - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of fixed doses of SD-809 in patients with TD
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in full accordance with the International Council on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Consolidated Guideline (E6) and any applicable national and local laws and regulations (eg, Code of Federal Regulations Title 21, Parts 50, 54, 56, 312, and 314; EU Directive 2001/20/EC on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to the implementation of GCP in the conduct of clinical trials on medicinal products for human use). Each investigator was responsible for performing the study in accordance with the protocol, ICH guidelines, and GCP, and for collecting, recording, and reporting the data accurately and properly. Written and/or oral information about the study was provided to all patients in a language understandable by the patients. The information included an adequate explanation of the aims, methods, anticipated benefits, potential hazards, and insurance arrangements in force. Written informed consent was obtained from each patient before any study procedures or assessments were done. It was explained to the patients that they were free to refuse entry into the study and free to withdraw from the study at any time without prejudice to future treatment. Each patient’s willingness to participate in the study was documented in writing in a consent form that was signed by the patient with the date of that signature indicated. Each investigator kept the original consent forms, and copies were given to the patients.

    Change in Total Motor Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Score from Baseline to Week 12 Using a Mixed Model For Repeated Measures (MMRM)
    End point description
    AIMS is an assessment tool used to detect and follow the severity of tardive dyskinesia (TD) over time. AIMS is composed of 12 clinician-administered and scored items. The exam was digitally video recorded using a standard protocol, and independently reviewed by blinded central raters who were experts in movement disorders. This outcome sums items 1 through 7 which cover orofacial movements, as well as extremity and truncal dyskinesia (the total motor AIMS score). Ratings were based on a 5-point scale of severity from 0 (none), 1 (minimal), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), to 4 (severe) for a total scale of 0-28. A negative change from baseline score indicates improvement. MMRM with treatment group, visit, treatment group-by-visit interaction, and baseline use of dopamine receptor antagonist (DRAs) as fixed effects and the baseline value as a covariate. The model was fit using an unstructured covariance structure.

    Percentage of Patients Considered a Treatment Success at Week 12 as Assessed by the Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC)
    End point description
    The CGIC is a single-item questionnaire that asks the investigator to assess a patient’s TD symptoms at specific visits after initiating therapy. The CGIC uses a 7 point Likert Scale, ranging from very much worse (–3) to very much improved (+3), to assess overall response to therapy. A treatment success was defined as “much improved” or “very much improved” at the week 12 visit. Patients whose status at week 12 was not known, as well as patients who were not “much improved” or “very much improved” at the week 12 visit, were considered treatment failures. The success 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated with the Wilson (score) confidence limits.

    Change in the Modified Craniocervical Dystonia Questionnaire (mCDQ-24) Total Score from Baseline to Week 12
    End point description
    The CDQ-24 is a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire developed for use in patients with craniocervical dystonia, including both cervical dystonia (CD) and blepharospasm (BPS). The CDQ 24 was modified such that the questions focus more directly on the impact of TD (as opposed to CD/BPS) on quality of life. The following domains are evaluated in the mCDQ-24: stigma, emotional well-being, pain, activities of daily living, and social/family life. Each of the 24 questions were rated by patients on a scale of 0=no impairment to 4=severest impairment for a total scale of 0 – 96. Negative change from baseline scores indicate improvement. For patients with missing data at week 12, the baseline or last available value was used as the week 12 value.

    Percentage of Patients Considered a Treatment Success at Week 12 as Assessed by the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC)
    End point description
    The PGIC is a single-item questionnaire that asks the patient to assess their TD symptoms at specific visits after initiating therapy. The PGIC uses a 7 point Likert Scale, ranging from very much worse (–3) to very much improved (+3), to assess overall response to therapy. A treatment success was defined as “much improved” or “very much improved” at the week 12 visit. Patients whose status at week 12 was not known, as well as patients who were not “much improved” or “very much improved” at the week 12 visit, were considered treatment failures. The success 95% CI was calculated with the Wilson (score) confidence limits.

    Percentage of Participants Who Had a 50% or Greater Reduction in Total Motor Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) From Baseline to Week 12
    End point description
    Responders who had a 50% or greater improvement in total motor modified AIMS at Week 12 as compared to baseline were reported as a percentage of participants with an outcome at Week 12. The responder 95% CI is calculated with the Wilson (score) confidence limits. AIMS is an assessment tool used to detect and follow the severity of TD over time. AIMS is composed of 12 clinician-administered and scored items. The exam was digitally video recorded using a standard protocol, and independently reviewed by blinded central raters who were experts in movement disorders. This outcome sums items 1 through 7 which cover orofacial movements, as well as extremity and truncal dyskinesia (the total motor AIMS score). Ratings were based on a 5-point scale of severity from 0 (none), 1 (minimal), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), to 4 (severe) for a total scale of 0-28. A negative change from baseline score indicates improvement.

    Participants with Adverse Events During the Overall Treatment Period
    End point description
    An adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Severity was rated by the investigator on a scale of mild, moderate and severe, with severe= an AE which prevents normal daily activities. Relation of AE to treatment was determined by the investigator and includes possibly, probably and definitely related categories. Serious AEs (SAE) include death, a life-threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, OR an important medical event that jeopardized the patient and required medical intervention to prevent the previously listed serious outcomes.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    28 Aug 2014
    Amendment 1 (dated 28 August 2014) was issued before the enrollment period began; no patients were enrolled into the study while this amendment was in effect. - Removal of video recording of AIMS assessment at week 13 - Measurement of orthostatic BP and pulse to be performed after the patient was in the supine position for at least 5 minutes and the standing position for at least 3 minutes - Change of timing of blood sampling for pharmacokinetic assessments to include scheduled visits at weeks 8 and 12 only - Requirement of a 12-lead ECG for all patients, regardless of the use of drugs that prolong the QT interval, at weeks 2, 4, and 8 - Clarification that dose suspensions or decreases for patients who experienced an adverse event or clinically significant adverse event were to be made by the investigator - Removal of the interactive web response system as the mechanism for randomization, change of doses, and re-ordering of study drug - Addition of IRT for randomization and dose changes - Modified to allow study drug to only be dispensed at clinic visits (a 2-week supply at baseline and week 2, a 4-week supply at week 4 and week 8, and a new supply for dose reductions as needed at unscheduled visits) - Removal of a maximal dose of SD-809 of 36 mg/day (or matching placebo) for patients receiving strong CYP2D6 inhibitors
    15 Sep 2014
    Amendment 2 (dated 15 September 2014) also was issued before any patients were enrolled into the study; all patients enrolled while this amendment was in effect. - Removal of AIMS at week 13 - HADS and C-SSRS required at unscheduled visits - Addition of the following assessments at the investigator’s discretion at unscheduled visits, if required: AIMS, video recording of AIMS, CGIC, PGIC, MoCA, mCDQ-24, assessment of study drug accountability and compliance and collection of all study drug if a dose reduction is required (maintenance period only), and provide diary card and remind patients to complete their diary card and bring to their next clinic visit (if unscheduled visit is replacing the week 4 or week 8 visits) - Addition of the following laboratory tests at the investigator’s discretion at unscheduled visits, if required: UDS, pregnancy test (women of childbearing potential only), virology screen (HBsAg), and prothrombin time (with INR)
    29 Oct 2015
    Amendment 3 was approved on 29 October 2015; 102 patients enrolled into the study while this amendment was in effect. Changes to the protocol were considered to have no negative impact on the safety of patients already enrolled into the study at that time. - Increase in the number of study sites from approximately 60 to approximately 75 and the number of patients from approximately 200 to approximately 288 - Increase in the upper limit of age for inclusion in the study to 80 years of age - Clarification that patients with a positive UDS were not excluded if they had a valid corresponding prescription for a medical condition - Removal of blinded interim analysis of variability - Change from co-primary analyses to a single primary analysis using a 2-sided test at the alpha=0.05 level.
