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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of the main study (at week 36) is to evaluate the neutralization of the IFN gene signature following treatment with IFN-K, as measured by the change from baseline of the expression of IFN-induced genes and to evaluate the efficacy of treatment with IFN-K using the British Isles Lupus Assessment Group (BILAG)-based Composite Lupus Assessment (BICLA) response criteria.
    The study will be considered as positive if a statistically significant better effect of IFN-K compared to placebo is observed on the neutralization of the IFN gene signature and if at least a trend favoring IFN-K is observed on the BICLA response.

    Following the 12-week Maintenance Period, patients will enter the 12-week Follow-up Period and subsequently enter in an Extended 240 week Follow-up Period. The visit at Week 276 will be considered as the last planned visit.
    If patients remain positive for anti-IFNa neutralizing antibodies after this Extended Follow up Period, they will be proposed to be enrolled in another 5-year follow up study to confirm the favorable safety profile of IFN-K.
    Dopo il Maintenance Period di 12w, i pazienti entreranno nel periodo di FU di 12 w e successivamente saranno seguiti durante un periodo di FU esteso di 240w. La visita alla w276 sará considerata l'ultima visita programmata. Se i pazienti rimarrano positivi agli anticorpi neutralizzanti anti-IFNa dopo questo periodo esteso di FU, essi avranno la possibilitá di essere reclutati in un altro studio di fu della durata di 5 anni, per confermare il profilo di sicurezza favorevole di IFN-K.
