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   43977   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7312   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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Subjects with moderate to severe CD took part in the study at 169 investigative sites in North America, South America, Western/Northern Europe, Central Europe, Eastern Europe, East Asia, and Africa/Australia from 04 Jan 2016 to 06 Aug 2019.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Subjects were enrolled in open-label (OL) induction phase to receive vedolizumab IV. Subjects with CR at Week 6 were randomized into double-blind maintenance phase to receive vedolizumab subcutaneous/placebo, and who did not achieve CR at Week 6 received 3rd infusion of OL vedolizumab IV and completed Week 14 visit.

CDAI score is equal to (=) sum of weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid/soft stools,degree of abdominal pain,general well-being); objective items (use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, presence of extraintestinal manifestations, body weight). CDAI scores range approx. from 0 to 600, higher scores indicating greater disease activity. Full analysis set(FAS):All randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of study SC drug (placebo/VDZ).Subjects who only received induction IV therapy and not randomized into the maintenance phase were not included in FAS.Subjects in this set were analyzed according to treatment they were randomized to receive.

    Corticosteroid-free remission is defined as subjects using oral corticosteroids at Baseline (Week 0) who have discontinued oral corticosteroids and are in clinical remission at Week 52. Clinical remission is defined as a CDAI score <=150 at Week 52. CDAI score = Sum of weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid/soft stools, degree of abdominal pain, general well-being); and objective items (use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, presence of extraintestinal manifestations, body weight). CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, higher scores indicating greater disease activity. Subjects from FAS, who used concomitant oral corticosteroid at Baseline. FAS had all subjects who received at least 1 dose of SC drug. Subjects who only received induction IV therapy and were not randomized into maintenance phase were not included in FAS.

    Secondary: Percentage of TNF-alpha Antagonist Naive Subjects Achieving Clinical Remission at Week 52

    End point title
    Percentage of TNF-alpha Antagonist Naive Subjects Achieving Clinical Remission at Week 52 [4]
    End point description
    Clinical remission is defined as CDAI score <=150 at Week 52. CDAI score = Sum of weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid/soft stools, degree of abdominal pain, general well-being); and objective items (use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, presence of extraintestinal manifestation, body weight). CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, higher scores indicating greater disease activity. Subjects from FAS, who were TNF-alpha antagonist naïve and had clinical remission. FAS had all subjects who received at least 1 dose of SC drug. Subjects who only received induction IV therapy and were not randomized in maintenance phase were not included in FAS. Subjects were analyzed according to randomized treatment assignment.

    Notes
    [4] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Descriptive data was planned to be analyzed for the reported arms.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Treatment-emergent adverse events are adverse events that started after the first dose of study drug up to 18 weeks after the last dose of study drug (up to Week 68)
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    At each visit the investigator had to document any occurrence of adverse events and abnormal laboratory findings. Any event spontaneously reported by the subject or observed by the investigator was recorded, irrespective of the relation to study treatment.

    Reporting group description
    Vedolizumab 300 mg, infusion, intravenously, once at Weeks 0, 2 in the open-label induction phase. Subjects who did not achieve clinical response at Week 6 received third infusion of vedolizumab 300 mg IV on Week 6.

    Reporting group title
    Maintenance Phase: Induction IV + Vedolizumab 108 mg SC
    Reporting group description
    Vedolizumab 108 mg, injection, subcutaneously, once every 2 weeks from Week 6 up to Week 50. Subjects who received vedolizumab 300 mg IV infusion in open-label induction phase and achieved clinical response at Week 6 were randomized to receive vedolizumab injection subcutaneously in maintenance phase.

    Reporting group title
    Maintenance Phase: Induction IV + Placebo
    Reporting group description
    Vedolizumab placebo-matching injection, subcutaneously, once every 2 weeks from Week 6 up to Week 50. Subjects who received vedolizumab 300 mg IV infusion in open-label induction phase and achieved clinical response at Week 6 were randomized to receive placebo in maintenance phase.
