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   43861   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To investigate the care of IVAN participants in the NHS, and changes to their vision, since the end of the IVAN trial in order to better inform future NHS strategies for treatment of wet Age-related Macular Degeneration.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Geographic Atrophy (GA) is a physical change that happens in the back of the eye. It can be measured and graded. Images taken in the original IVAN study, on average between 3 and 5 years ago, can be compared against images taken during this study. From that comparison we can;

    • Describe how many of the IVAN participants have developed Geographic Atrophy.
    • Describe the rate of change in those participants who already had Geographic Atrophy.
    • Estimate if there was any link or effect between the Geographic Atrophy severity and the the trial allocations, the numbers of treatments administered during the trial, the participants’ management and clinical outcomes and health status (as measured using questionnaires).
    • To estimate the effects of original trial allocations on the rate of development of new Geographic Atrophy.
    • To investigate whether new Geographic Atrophy has a long term impact on visual function and health status (as measured using questionnaires), which could poten
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Inclusion criteria:
    i) Participated in the original IVAN trial.
    For attended visits and the postal questionnaire:
    ii) Able to give informed consent.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    None
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary outcome will be the development of new atrophy. This outcome will be determined from colour fundus (CF), OCT and autofluorescence images (where available) of the study eye. The images are submitted to the Network of Ophthalmic Reading Centres (NetwORC). NetwORC will grade all images that are submitted without knowledge of experimental allocations or other exposures of interest and classify study eyes as having developed new atrophy or not.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    This will be at one timepoint on average 5 years since enrollment in the IVAN trial.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    • Best corrected distance visual acuity (BCVA; VAlogMAR), with standard and low luminance, using the standard ETDRS Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letter charts. This will be recorded for each visit from a participant’s medical record for both study and fellow eyes.

    • Duration of monitoring for reactivation: This will be derived from the date of first treatment in the IVAN trial and the date of the last / most recent monitoring visit documented in the medical records. If a participant has been discharged at some point since exiting the IVAN trial, then restarted treatment, the date of restarting treatment (and subsequent cessation of monitoring) will be recorded. If a fellow eye has developed nAMD requiring treatment during or after exiting the IVAN trial, the same information will be recorded for the fellow eye.
    • Number of visits: In addition, the eye(s) being monitored at each visit will be recorded, i.e. study, fellow or both.
    • Number of injections: This outcome will be recorded separately for study and fellow eyes. The drug used for each treatment will also be recorded
    • nAMD status of fellow eye
