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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objectives of the study were: • To assess the safety and tolerability of AZD3241 in subjects with MSA. • To determine the effect of AZD3241 on microglia activation, as measured by [11C]PBR28 binding, in subjects with MSA.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Periodic review of patient safety (quarterly review) Interim analysis when 40 subjects had reached 4 weeks of treatment with potential to stop a treatment arm for patient safety. Conducted in April 2016, with recommendation to continue per protocol.
    Background therapy
    		 Allowed if stable for minimum of 30 days dosing and not on list of prohibited medications.
    Evidence for comparator
    		 Placebo used since currently no specific treatments for Multiple System Atropy.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 124 subjects were screened,signed consent. A total of 59 subjects were dispensed treatment through randomization. 1 subject was notified as ineligible prior to first dose, provided no safety data and is excluded from analysis data sets.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 Rescreening was permitted if eligibility could not be confirmed within the 49 day screening period. A total of 59 were actually considered to have completed screening and were randomized, 58 were included in analyses as 1 subject not dosed provided no information.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: 61 subjects were issued randomization assignments, 2 were determined to be screen failures and were never dispensed study medication, thus 59 were dispensed study medication. 1 additional subject (randomized to placebo group) was determined to be a screen failure after the subject left the study site, and was notified by the site prior to the first dose. The subject refused to return to the site, and provided no safety information. Thus only 58 subjects were included in the Safety analysis se
