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   44237   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Eighteen sites in the United States and 4 sites in Puerto Rico enrolled subjects into the study. The first subject was randomized 17 June 2008 and the last subject was randomized 12 Aug 2009.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of the 2 treatment arms. To ensure balanced randomization, the study drug assignment was stratified on the basis of whether subjects were treatment-naive or had been treated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) previously.

    Change From Baseline in Incremental Growth Rate (cm/Year) at Month 6
    End point description
    The growth rate at baseline was the growth rate during the last year before the start of treatment and was calculated with the measurement closest to Day -336 (before Day -30) and the measurement up to Day 1. Growth rate at Month 6 was defined as the ratio of the change in height from Day 1 to the change in chronological age, with an approximate 6-month interval between the 2 height measurements. Observed data were used with no imputation for missing data. Subjects must have received at least 1 dose of study drug and had at least 1 postbaseline measurement defined as the intent-to-treat population.

    Ratio of Change From Baseline in Bone Age/Change From Baseline in Chronological Age at Month 6
    End point description
    The ratio at Month 6 was calculated as (bone age at Month 6 - bone age at baseline)/(chronological age at Month 6 - chronological age at baseline). Observed data were used with no imputation for missing data. Baseline bone-age radiograph was performed at or within 3 months of the Screening Visit. Participants must have received at least 1 dose of study drug and had at least 1 postbaseline measurement defined as the intent-to-treat population.

    Percentage of Participants With Suppression of Peak Stimulated Luteinizing Hormone (<4 mIU/mL) From Month 2 Through Month 6 (Simple Percentage With Binomial Exact Confidence Intervals)
    End point description
    Percentage of participants with suppression of peak stimulated luteinizing hormone that was measured after a GnRHa stimulation test at Mo 2, 3, and 6. A simple percentage and binomial exact confidence intervals were used in this analysis. Participants who withdrew with luteinizing hormone that remained suppressed were counted as a success. This analysis was performed after the clinical study report was completed and is included to match the FDA package insert. Subjects must have received at least 1 dose of study drug and had at least 1 postbaseline measurement of peak stimulated luteinizing hormone at Mo 2 or afterward defined as the intent-to-treat population.

    Percentage of Participants With a Decrease From Baseline in the Ratio of Bone Age to Chronological Age at Month 6 Compared to Baseline
    End point description
    The ratio at baseline or Month 6 was calculated as bone age at baseline or Month 6/chronological age at baseline or Month 6. The percentage of participants with a decrease in the ratio was calculated as a simple percentage for each dose group. Observed data were used with no imputation for missing data. The baseline time frame was increased from the secondary outcome in this analysis to include all participants with a bone age radiograph at screening. This analysis was performed after the clinical study report was completed & is included to match the FDA package insert.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Feb 2008
    The primary purpose of this amendment was to include a lower dose of leuprolide acetate (11.25 mg) in addition to the 30 mg dose, both administered with a 3-month dosing interval; to increase the number of study subjects to approximately 80, approximately 40 naïve to GnRHa therapy (a minimum of 30) and a minimum of 40 subjects previously treated with GnRHa; to change the study design to a randomized open-label study utilizing an Interactive Voice-Response System/Interactive Web-Response System to randomize subjects. The option for entry into a separate open-label extension study for qualifying subjects who were adequately suppressed through Month 6 of this study, was included. The Posttreatment Follow-up Period was extended to 12 weeks (occurred 12 weeks following the subject's Month 6 visit) to better coincide with routine office visit schedule for standard of care treatment. Telephone calls were added to assess the occurrence of any potential hormonal flare responses to the 11.25 and 30 mg leuprolide acetate depot doses. Clarifications to the adverse event assessment section were made. Windows for retrospective diagnostic imaging (diagnostic brain imaging by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/computed tomography (CT) scan; screening pelvic, adrenal, and testicular ultrasounds) and laboratory test results (beta human chorionic gonadotropin [β-hCG] in male subjects, adrenal blood tests, GnRHa stimulation testing) were increased. Growth rate and bone age versus chronological age were changed from additional endpoints to secondary endpoints, and peak-stimulated luteinizing hormone concentration was added as a secondary endpoint. 14. Prior and concomitant use of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and use of estrogen preparations within 2 months of Day 1 were added as exclusionary criteria.
    06 Apr 2009
    As a result of the transition of the Lupron program from TAP Pharmaceuticals to Abbott, the primary purpose of Amendment 2 was to document changes regarding Sponsor name and contact information and to provide a new fax number and a revised timeline for reporting serious adverse events to Abbott. Major changes included the following: -include convulsions as a rarely reported event -document that the commercially-available generic leuprolide acetate daily injection (Leuprolide Acetate Injection) will be used to conduct the GnRHa Stimulation test -clarify that a copy of the hand-wrist radiograph will be maintained at the study site in the subject's study file and include reference to (and a sample of) the Hand/Wrist Radiograph Transmittal Form that is submitted with the radiograph to Lifespan -clarify that screening baseline sex steroids are required even if a stimulation test in the treatment-naïve population was performed within the past 30 days -clarify that at the Month 6 and Early Discontinuation Visits, the blood collections for basal gonadotropin and sex steroids are relative to the Day 1 depot Injection -clarify that the congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) panel was not required if an alternative cause of precocious puberty had been ruled-out, that testosterone levels were only performed on males, and that an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation test was required prior to randomization if the initial Screening CAH panel results were inconclusive -incorporate a longer study duration as a result of the enrollment period having been extended a few months -update criteria for withdrawal (accelerated progression of pubertal symptoms, excluding pubic hair, any time after the Month 2 study visit) -clarify premature discontinuation from trial, permitted/prohibited medications, adverse event and serious adverse event procedures
