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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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 objective of study was to evaluate the efficacy of Tralokinumab Dose 1, 2 and 3, tested hierarchically, compared with placebo in adults with moderate to severe AD, assessed using the absolute change in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) from baseline at Week 12, and using the percentage of participants achieving Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) response of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear) and at least a 2 grade reduction from baseline at Week 12.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The conduct of this clinical study met all local and regulatory requirements. The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and are consistent with International Conference on Harmonization guideline: Good Clinical Practice, and applicable regulatory requirements. Participants signed informed consent form and could withdraw from the study at any time without any disadvantage and without having to provide a reason for this decision. Only investigators qualified by training and experience were selected as appropriate experts to investigate the study drug.

    		 Absolute Change From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Total Score at Week 12
    End point description
    EASI evaluates 4 natural anatomical regions for severity and extent of key disease signs and focuses on the key acute and chronic signs of inflammation (erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification). The maximum total score is 72, with higher values indicating more severe disease. The data presented here is Adjusted mean change after excluding the data from participants who took prohibited medications. The intent-to-treat (ITT) population included all randomized and treated participants, grouped according to assigned treatment. Here, "N" is number of participants analysed for this outcome measure.

    The IGA allows investigators to assess overall disease severity at one given time point and consists of a 6-point severity scale from clear to very severe disease (0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild disease, 3 = moderate disease, 4 = severe disease, and 5 = very severe disease). A participant has IGA response if they achieve a score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear) and at least a 2-grade reduction from baseline.

A serious adverse event (SAE) is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening situation (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a participant who received Tralokinumab. Treatment-emergent adverse events between administration of investigational product and Week 22 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pre-treatment state. As-treated population included all treated participants, grouped according to actual treatment received.

Treatment-emergent adverse events between first dose of study drug and 10 weeks after the last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pre-treatment state. Laboratory evaluations (haematology, serum chemistry and urinalysis) of blood and urine samples were performed.

    		 Number of Participants With Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities Reported as Treatment Emergent Adverse Events
    End point description
    AEs observed in participants with clinically significant ECG abnormalities were assessed. ECG parameters included heart rate, RR, PR, QRS and QT intervals. Treatment-emergent adverse events between administration of investigational product and Week 22 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pre-treatment state. As-treated population included all treated participants, grouped according to actual treatment received.

    		 Absolute Change From Baseline in Scoring of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) at Week 12
    End point description
    The SCORAD is a clinical tool for assessing the severity (that is, extent, intensity) of AD. The tool evaluates the extent and intensity of the AD lesions, along with participant symptoms. The maximum total score is 103, with higher values indicating more severe disease. The data presented here is Adjusted mean change after excluding the data from subjects who took prohibited medications. The intent-to-treat (ITT) population included all randomized and treated participants, grouped according to assigned treatment. Here, "N" is number of participants analyzed for this outcome measure.
