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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 of intradermal injections of SIN LV-mediated COL7A1 gene-modified autologous fibroblasts in adults with RDEB.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Each study participant will receive three intradermal injections of ex vivo transduced autologous fibroblasts expressing codon-optimised COL7A1 as the IMP on Day 0 only. Each injection of the IMP containing 0.8–1.2x106 cells suspended in 0.25ml of 0.9% saline, will be administered intradermally into 1cm2 area of intact skin (x3). Participants will be followed up with study interventions for a 12-month period at various time points. All followups, where possible, will be co-ordinated to try to coincide with the individuals’ routine clinic reviews. Each subject will undergo an initial screening including a physical examination and assessment of disease severity. Blood analyses and skin biopsies will be performed at various time points throughout the trial. The second participant will be treated only if there is no safety concern 4 weeks after the first participant’s IMP injections. All patients with RDEB are followed up on a lifelong basis, and we will therefore be able to capture any long-term possible adverse effects related to the IMP. Subjects with positive results for HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HTLV or Syphilis will be excluded. Subjects will not be included who are pregnant or of child-bearing potential who are neither abstinent nor practising an acceptable means of contraception when this is in line with the usual and preferred lifestyle of the subject, as determined by the Investigator, for 12 months after the cell injections.

    Open label SIN LV-mediated ex vivo transduced autologous fibroblasts expressing codon-optimised COL7A1 will be given to patients at a does of 0.8–1.2 million cells suspended in 0.25ml of 0.9% saline per injection over 1 cm2 of intact skin (3 intradermal injections of IMP at a single timepoint). Patients were followed up for 12 months post injection.

    Date
    Amendment
    10 Jul 2015
    • To decrease the duration of follow up from 36mths to 12mths • To amend the exclusion criteria such that persons with positive serology for HIV, Hepatitis B and C, HTLV and Syphilis are excluded from the study • To amend the total number of skin biopsies to be taken at baseline (V1B) from 2 (1x6mm and 1x4mm punch) to 2-3 (1x6mm and 1-2x4mm punch). • To include two additional investigations on the skin biopsies; histology and RT-PCR to demonstrate the difference in COL7A1 gene expression between fibroblasts from treated versus untreated skin.
    25 Apr 2016
    The purpose of this amendment secondary endpoints. Amend inclusion/exclusion criteria. Amend IMP administration details to minimise the amount of tattooing to mark the injected sites.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
