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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the intravenous (IV) administration of ATYR1940, at doses of 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mg/kg, to patients with early onset FSHD
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study process, benefits and risks of participating in the study were explained to each subject. In addition, if the study drug needed to be stopped for safety, the doctor, his/her staff along with the medical monitor, were to continue to monitor participant's health and determine what treatment should be given (if any) until the symptoms or findings had resolved or until a satisfactory conclusion was reached.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Per the original study design enrollment was to be performed in 2 stages. Stage 1 was conducted and completed and the data are described herein. The sponsor elected not to conduct Stage 2. The key patient disease characteristics included an established genetically confirmed diagnosis of FSHD with FSHD signs or symptoms presenting < 10 years.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The study actually had 3 periods distinct periods - screening, treatment (13 weeks including 1 dose of placebo at Week 1) and follow-up (12 weeks).

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to have started the pre-assignment period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The worldwide number corresponds to the number of patients randomized (8) and not to the number of patients screened (9).

    Arm description
    Enrollment into the study was to be conducted in 2 stages, based on patient age. In Stage 1, up to 8 patients between the ages of 16 and 25 years with early onset FSHD who met study entry criteria were enrolled. Stage 2 of enrollment, which was planned to include patients with early onset FSHD between the ages of 12 and 15 years, was to be initiated following an amendment to the study, based on consideration of safety data of ATYR1940 gathered in Stage 1 of this study, along with clinical safety data obtained in other studies of ATYR1940. The Sponsor elected not to conduct Stage 2.

    Dosage and administration details
    Three dose levels of ATYR1940 were to be evaluated using intrapatient dose escalation: 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mg/kg. Following a single, 90-minute IV placebo (normal saline Week 1) infusion, ATYR1940 was to be administered as a 90-minute IV infusion once a week for 12 weeks, starting at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg, with the potential for intrapatient dose escalation over the dosing period. During the 13-week treatment period, patients visited the clinic weekly for dosing and assessments of safety, immunogenicity, and PD activity. Patients also returned to the clinic 1, 4, and 12 weeks after the last dose of ATYR1940 for assessment of safety, immunogenicity, and biological and PD activity. The maximum duration of patient participation in the study was 28 weeks.
