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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    To establish superiority of azithromycin/chloroquine (AZCQ) over sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) in protective efficacy for intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy (IPTp) as measured by the proportion of subjects with sub-optimal pregnancy outcome.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were followed.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This Phase 3, open label, randomized, parallel group study screened a total of 3259 subjects in 6 sites. A total of 2891 were treated either with azithromycin+chloroquine or sulfadoxine+pyrimethamine.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Pregnant women (all gravidae) with greater than equal to (≥) 14 and less than equal to (≤) 26 weeks of gestational age were to be enrolled in this study. Approximately half of the subjects were to be primigravidae and secundigravidae pregnant women since they had a higher risk for suboptimal pregnancy outcomes due to malaria.

    Adverse pregnancy outcomes were defined as live-borne neonate (singleton) with low birth weight (LBW) (less than (<)2,500 g), premature births (<37 weeks as confirmed by the Ballard score), abortion (less than equal to (≤)28 weeks), still birth (greater than (>)28 weeks), lost to follow-up prior to termination of pregnancy or delivery, or missing birth weight of the neonates. Intent To Treat (ITT) set was used which consisted of subjects who were randomized, received at least one dose of study medication (Day 0 at Visit 1 was considered the first dose of study medication), and who had a single fetus.

    Statistical analysis description
    Mantel-Haenszel estimate of the common relative risk is presented, adjusting for randomization strata. A relative risk less than 1 favors Azithromycin + Chloroquine treatment group (reduction in risk for the endpoint). The 2-sided P-value tests the null hypothesis that the relative risk equals 1 (treatment group equality) versus not equal 1. The estimated risk ratio is presented along with its standard error (SE), with the SE on the log(e) scale.

    Mantel-Haenszel estimate of the common relative risk is presented, adjusting for randomization strata. A relative risk less than 1 favors Azithromycin + Chloroquine treatment group (reduction in risk for the endpoint). The 2-sided P-value tests the null hypothesis that the relative risk equals 1 (treatment group equality) versus not equal 1. The estimated risk ratio is presented along with its standard error (SE), with the SE on the log(e) scale.

    End point description
    This outcome measure evaluated the percentage of subjects positive for peripheral parasitemia at delivery. A subject was positive for parasitemia if the number of asexual parasites per μL was >0. ITT set was used which consisted of subjects who were randomized, received at least one dose of study medication (Day 0 at Visit 1 is considered the first dose of study medication), and who had a single fetus.

    Statistical analysis description
    Mantel-Haenszel estimate of the common relative risk is presented, adjusting for randomization strata. A relative risk less than 1 favors Azithromycin + Chloroquine treatment group (reduction in risk for the endpoint). The 2-sided P-value tests the null hypothesis that the relative risk equals 1 (treatment group equality) versus not equal 1. The estimated risk ratio is presented along with its standard error (SE), with the SE on the log(e) scale.

    Statistical analysis title
    Pre-Eclampsia; Week 20 to Delivery
    Statistical analysis description
    Mantel-Haenszel estimate of the common relative risk is presented, adjusting for randomization strata. A relative risk less than 1 favors Azithromycin + Chloroquine treatment group (reduction in risk for the endpoint). The 2-sided P-value tests the null hypothesis that the relative risk equals 1 (treatment group equality) versus not equal 1. The estimated risk ratio is presented along with its standard error (SE), with the SE on the log(e) scale.

    Nasopharyngeal Swabs Positive for Macrolide Resistant Streptococcus Pneumoniae
    End point description
    This outcome measure evaluated the Streptococcus pneumoniae sensitivity against macrolide antibiotics. ITT set was used which consisted of subjects who were randomized, received at least one dose of study medication (Day 0 at Visit 1 is considered the first dose of study medication), and who had a single fetus. Here "N"= Number of subject with nasopharyngeal swabs isolating Streptococcus pneumoniae at specified visit.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Up to Visit 7 (6 months post last dose). Includes data up to 35 days after last dose of study drug for mothers (treatment emergent), and includes all data for neonates
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Same event may appear as AE and SAE,what is presented are distinct events. Some events seen only in neonates (neonatal malformation/anomalies, LBW);not expected in mothers and vice versa. Such events designated as ‘0’ in respective ‘familial status- neonate/mother’. EU BR specific AE tables generated separately as per EU format using latest coding.
