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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of intranasal esketamine plus an oral antidepressant compared with an oral antidepressant (active comparator) plus intranasal placebo in delaying relapse of depressive symptoms in subjects with TRD who are in stable
    remission after an induction and optimization course of intranasal esketamine plus an oral antidepressant.
    L’obiettivo primario di questo studio è valutare l’efficacia di Esketamine intra nasale associata ad un antidepressivo orale rispetto ad un antidepressivo orale (comparatore attivo) in combinazione con il placebo intra nasale nel ritardare la recidiva dei sintomi di depressione in soggetti con TRD in remissione stabile dopo un ciclo di induzione ed ottimizzazione con Esketamine intra nasale in combinazione con un antidepressivo orale.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    -To assess the efficacy of intranasal esketamine plus an oral antidepressant compared with an oral antidepressant (active comparator) plus intranasal placebo in delaying relapse of depressive symptoms in subjects with TRD with stable response (but who are not in stable remission) after an induction and optimization courseof intranasal
    esketamine plus an oral antidepressant.
    -To assess the effect of intranasal esketamine plus an oral antidepressant compared with an oral antidepressant (active comparator) plus intranasal placebo on various parameters (see protocol
    for details).
    - To investigate the safety and tolerability of intranasal esketamine plus an oral antidepressant compared with an oral antidepressant (active
    comparator) plus intranasal placebo in subjects with TRD (see protocol for details)
    -Valutare l’efficacia di Esketamine intra nasale abbinata ad un antidepressivo orale rispetto ad un antidepressivo orale (comparatore attivo) abbinato al placebo intra nasale nel ritardare la recidiva di sintomi depressivi in soggetti con TRD con risposta stabile (ma non in remissione stabile) dopo un ciclo di induzione e ottimizzazione con Esketamine intra nasale abbinata a un antidepressivo orale.
    -Valutare l’effetto di Esketamine intra nasale abbinata ad un antidepressivo orale rispetto ad un antidepressivo orale (comparatore attivo) associato al placebo intra nasale rispetto a vari parametri (vedere il protocollo).
    -Studiare la sicurezza e la tollerabilità di Esketamine intra nasale associata ad un antidepressivo orale rispetto ad un antidepressivo orale (comparatore attivo) abbinato al placebo intra nasale in soggetti con TRD (vedere il protocollo per i dettagli).

    - At the start of the screening/prospective observational phase, participants must have had nonresponse to >=2 but less than or equal to (<=) 5 oral antidepressant treatments taken at adequate dosage and for adequate duration, as assessed using the Massachusetts General Hospital - Antidepressant Treatment Response Questionnaire (MGHATRQ) and documented by medical history and pharmacy/prescription records, for the current episode of depression
    - The participant's current major depressive episode and treatment response to antidepressant treatments used in the current depressive episode (retrospectively assessed) must be deemed valid for
    participation in a clinical study based on a Site-Independent Qualification Assessment For Transferred-Entry Participants

    -Al momento della firma del modulo di consenso informato (ICF), il soggetto, uomo o donna, deve avere un’età compresa tra 18 anni (o più se l’età legale minima richiesta per il consenso nel paese in cui viene condotto lo studio è maggiore di 18 anni) e 64 anni (estremi inclusi).
    -All’inizio della fase di screening/osservazione prospettica, ogni soggetto deve soddisfare i criteri diagnostici del Manuale Diagnostico e Statistico sui Disturbi Mentali - quinta edizione (DSM-5) per l’MDD a episodio singolo (in caso di MDD a episodio singolo, la durata deve essere >= 2 anni) o l’MDD ricorrente, senza caratteristiche psicotiche, sulla base della valutazione clinica e con conferma tramite l’intervista MINI (Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview).
    -All’inizio della fase di screening/osservazione prospettica, ogni soggetto deve avere un punteggio totale IDS-C30 (Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology, Clinician-rated, 30-item) ≥34.
    -All’inizio della fase di screening/osservazione prospettica, ogni soggetto deve aver presentato una mancata risposta a >= 2 ma <= 5 ai regimi terapeutici con antidepressivi orali nel corso dell’episodio corrente di depressione, valutata con il questionario MGH-ATRQ (Massachusetts General Hospital - Antidepressant Treatment Response Questionnaire) e confermata da anamnesi/prescrizioni documentate.
