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   43857   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    In the European Union (EU) and rest of world, efficacy of UX003 in mucopolysaccharidosis VII MPS VII subjects is determined by the percent reduction of urinary glycosaminoglycan (uGAG) excretion after 24 weeks of treatment relative to the pre-treatment baseline. In the United States (US) only, efficacy of UX003 in MPS VII subjects is based on the totality of the clinical data on a per subject basis.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial was designed, conducted, recorded, and reported in accordance with the principles established by the 18th World Medical Association General Assembly (Helsinki, 1964) and subsequent amendments and clarifications adopted by the General Assemblies. The investigators made every effort to ensure that the study was conducted in full conformance with Helsinki principles, International Council for Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines, current Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, EU Clinical Trial Directive 2001/20/EC, and local ethical and regulatory requirements. Each investigator was thoroughly familiar with the appropriate administration and potential risks of administration of the study drug, as described in the protocol and Investigator’s Brochure, prior to the initiation of the study. The method of obtaining and documenting informed consent and the contents of the informed consent form (ICF) complied with ICH GCP guidelines, the requirements of 21 CFR Part 50, “Protection of Human Subjects,” the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act regulations, and all other applicable regulatory requirements. Investigators were responsible for preparing the ICF and submitting it to the Sponsor for approval prior to submission to the Institutional Review Board (IRB). All ICFs were written in regional language and contained the minimum elements for consent as mandated by the ICH guidelines. An IRB-approved ICF was provided by the Sponsor prior to initiation of the study. Investigators obtained signed written informed consent from each potential study subject prior to the conduct of any study procedures and after the methods, objectives, requirements, and potential risks of the study were fully explained to each potential subject. Consent for participation could be withdrawn at any time for any reason by the subject.

    European Union (EU) and Rest of World: Percentage Change From Baseline in Urinary Glycosaminoglycan (uGAG) Dermatan Sulfate (DS) at UX003 Treatment Week 24 [1]
    End point description
    Baseline was defined as the average of all assessments prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect was subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) Percent change from baseline in uGAG DS was analyzed by generalized estimating equation (GEE) modeling based on observed data. The GEE model included included baseline value, and the UX003 treatment week as a categorical variable. The covariance structure within subjects was assumed to be exchangeable. In the United States (US), this was considered a secondary outcome measure. Per guidance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), no primary efficacy variable was declared in the US. Efficacy was to be based on the totality of the clinical data on a per subject basis.

    End point title
    Multi-Domain Responder Index (MDRI) Score at UX003 Treatment Week 24
    End point description
    MDRI score, calculated as the total response score at UX003 Treatment Week 24 across 6 domains: 6-Minute Walk Test, forced vital capacity predicted value, shoulder flexion, visual acuity, and Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency fine motor and gross motor capacity. For each domain, a minimally important difference (MID) was prespecified. Changes from before treatment (baseline) to 24 weeks after treatment in each domain variable were scored against pre-specified MIDs. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) An improvement or decline ≥ MID was scored either as a +1 or -1, respectively, and a change <MID was scored as 0. The integration of benefit occurred by summing the responses (-1, +1, 0) across all 6 domain variables to derive the MDRI score, with a range of -6 (greatest possible decline) to +6 (greatest possible improvement).

    The total distance walked (in meters) in a 6-minute period was measured. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. Change from baseline in 6MWT was analyzed by GEE modeling based on observed data. The GEE model included all subjects who had non-missing baseline and at least one post-baseline value during the 24 weeks of UX003 treatment. The model included baseline value, and the UX003 treatment week as a categorical variable. The covariance structure within subjects was assumed to be exchangeable.

The percent predicted values were calculated after testing using published normative data. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) No GEE analysis was performed for FVC due to the limitation of the sample size.

    Change From Baseline in Uncorrected Visual Acuity at UX003 Treatment Week 24
    End point description
    Visual acuity was measured (corrected and uncorrected) using a standard eye chart and recorded for each eye independently. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. The change in the number of lines from pre-treatment baseline to 24 weeks of treatment was evaluated. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) A positive change from baseline indicates improvement. Change from baseline in uncorrected visual acuity was analyzed by GEE modeling based on observed data. The GEE model included all subjects who had non-missing baseline and at least one post-baseline value during the 24 weeks of UX003 treatment. The model included baseline value, and the UX003 treatment week as a categorical variable. The covariance structure within subjects was assumed to be exchangeable.

    Change From Baseline in BOT-2 Scores at UX003 Treatment Week 24
    End point description
    BOT-2 was administered to evaluate treatment-related changes in 4 domains assessing both fine and gross motor function: balance (score 0 to 37), fine motor precision (score 0 to 41), manual dexterity (score 0 to 45), and running speed/agility (score 0 to 52). Higher scores indicate more motor proficiency; a positive change from baseline indicates improvement. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) Change from baseline in BOT-2 was analyzed by GEE modeling based on observed data. The GEE model included baseline value, and the UX003 treatment week as a categorical variable.

    Change From Baseline in Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL) Multidimensional Fatigue Scale at UX003 Treatment Week 24
    End point description
    The PedsQL 18-item scale is comprised of 3 dimensions: general fatigue (6 items), sleep/rest fatigue (6 items) and cognitive fatigue (6 items). Each item has a 5-point Likert response scale that is reverse scored and transformed to a 0 to 100 scale with higher scores indicating less fatigue. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) Change from baseline in PedsQL total fatigue score was analyzed by GEE modeling based on observed data. The GEE model included all subjects who had non-missing baseline and ≥1 post-baseline value during the 24 weeks of UX003 treatment. The model included baseline value, and the UX003 treatment week as a categorical variable. The covariance structure within subjects was assumed to be exchangeable.

    Percentage of Individual Clinical Response (ICR) Responders at UX003 Treatment Week 24
    End point description
    Percentage of subjects who were ICR responders based on MID criteria at Week 24. At the Randomization visit, the physician queried the subject or parent/caregiver about signs and symptoms of MPS VII that interfered most with the subject’s daily life. Answers were mapped to an appropriate clinical outcome measure (e.g., difficulty walking could map to the 6MWT; breathing problems to FVC). The clinical outcome ranked with the highest impact on daily life that could be reliably completed by the subject and met a threshold level of impairment was selected as the ICR for that subject. ICR response was assessed based on a positive change (according to pre-specified MID criteria) of each subject’s ICR. Agresti–Coull confidence interval with nominal coverage ≥ 95%.

    Change From Baseline in Impactful Clinical Problem Total Score at UX003 Treatment Week 24
    End point description
    The 3 most impactful clinical problems as reported by the subject/parent/caregiver during the Clinical Problem Evaluation were scored on a Likert scale from 1 (very little problem) to 7 (an extreme amount) at randomization and post-randomization visits. At post-randomization visits, each clinical problem was again scored for impact on daily activities. Total scores ranged from 3 to 21; lower scores reflect less impact on daily life. Baseline was defined as the last assessment prior to or on the date of cross-over to active treatment with UX003. (This provides the valid assessment, as placebo effect would be subtracted from the treatment effect estimate providing a more conservative assessment of the true treatment effect.) The change from baseline up to UX003 Treatment Week 24 were analyzed by GEE modeling, including baseline value, and the post-UX003 initiation treatment week as a categorical variable. The covariance structure within subjects is assumed to be exchangeable.
