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   43874   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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 evaluate the effect of BG00012 on lymphocyte subset counts during the first year of treatment in subjects with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS).
    Protection of trial subjects
    Written informed consent was obtained from each subject or subject’s legally authorized representative (e.g., parent or legal guardian), as applicable, prior to evaluations performed for eligibility. Subjects or the subject’s legally authorized representative were given adequate time to review the information in the informed consent/assent and were allowed to ask, and have answered, questions concerning all portions of the conduct of the study.

    End point title
    Change From Baseline in Lymphocyte Subsets Counts up to 48 Weeks: B-Cell Subsets [3]
    End point description
    B-cell subsets include CD10+ Transitional B cells, CD138+ Plasma Cells, Ig (Immunoglobulin) D+ Memory B cells [non-class switched], IgD- Memory B cells [class switched], Naïve B cells, Plasma Cells [CD10-], Transitional B-cells and Plasmablasts. Here, Change at week is represented as CW. The PD population was defined as all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had at least 1 pharmacodynamic measurement after baseline. Here 'n' signifies number of subjects analyzed at specified timepoint for each subset.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 24, Week 36 and Week 48
    Notes
    [3] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No statistical analyses are reported for this endpoint.

    End point description
    Myeloid and natural killer cell subsets include CD56Bright NK cells, CD56Dim NK cells, Classical Monocytes, Myeloid dendritic cells, Non-classical Monocytes, Plasmacytoid dendritic cells, Total dendritic cells and Total monocytes [CD14+]. The PD population was defined as all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had at least 1 pharmacodynamic measurement after baseline. Here, 'n' signifies number of subjects analyzed at specified timepoint for each subset.

    Change From Baseline in Lymphocyte Subsets Counts up to 48 Weeks: Very Late Antigen-4 (VLA-4/Lymphocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 (LFA-1) Antigen [6]
    End point description
    VLA-4/LFA-1 antigen subsets include CD11a+ (% of B cells), CD11a+ (% of T cells), CD11a+ (% of MNC), CD11a+ (% of dendritic cells [CD11c++]), CD11a+ (% of lymphocytes), CD11a+ (% of monocytes), CD11a+ (% of neutrophils), CD49d+ (% of B cells), CD49d+ (% of T cells), CD49d+ (% of MNC), CD49d+ (% of dendritic [D] cells [CD11c++]), CD49d+ (% of lymphocytes), CD49d+ (% of monocytes) and CD49d+ (% of neutrophils). The PD population was defined as all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study treatment and had at least 1 pharmacodynamic measurement after baseline. Here, 'n' signifies number of subjects analyzed at specified timepoint for each subset.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    22 Jan 2016
    1. The protocol was amended to extend the duration of lymphocyte testing during the study in subjects with lymphopenia upon discontinuation of treatment with BG00012 from 24 weeks to 48 weeks. 2. A magnetic resonance imaging examination was added prior to the start of BG00012 therapy if not already available within the previous 3 months and where required per local guidelines. 3. Schedule of activities was updated. 4. A statement was added about progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy to include additional information as it relates to lymphopenia in the postmarketing setting. 5. The option of treating relapses with oral corticosteroids was added to provide the Neurologist with the option of treating relapses with oral corticosteroids and not just intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP). 6. A condition for exclusion of subjects due to a positive test result for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) at Screening was added to clarify the outcome of HIV testing in study sites where testing is required by local authorities. HIV testing is not required for all subjects. 7. The timing of dose reduction was revised to provide some flexibility in the event that the subject does not need to take the study treatment beyond 4 weeks.
