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   7294   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 assess whether antiviral therapy with last generation DAA is associated with restoration of HCV-specific T cell responses and whether level of restoration is negatively influenced by simultaneous administration of IFN-alfa
    Valutare se la terapia antivirale con i DAA di ultima generazione ¿ associata ad un ripristino delle risposte antivirali dei linfociti T HCV-specifici e se il livello di ripristino ¿ influenzato in modo negativo dalla terapia concomitante con Interferon-alfa.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To assess:
    - whether early changes in NK cell phenotype can be detected in DAA treated patients in the search of putative predictors of accelerated response or non response to therapy to be validated in future extended studies;
    - whether HCV genetic heterogeneity at baseline may influence the anti-HCV specific immune response, and/or wheter the emergence under treatment of HCV mutants resistant to therapy may impair anti-viral T cell responses.
    Valutare:
    - se possano essere individuati eventuali cambiamenti del fenotipo delle cellule NK nelle prime fasi di terapia con DAA con la finalit¿ di definire potenziali fattori predittivi di risposta precoce o di non risposta al trattamento stesso, da validare in studi futuri
    - se l¿eterogeneit¿ genetica del virus al momento dell¿inizio della terapia possa influenzare le risposte immunitarie specifiche e/o se l¿emergenza di varianti virali resistenti alla terapia durante il trattamento possa inibire le risposte antivirali T-linfocitarie.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    - the percentage of patients showing improvement of CD4- and CD8-mediated HCV-specific T cell responses ex vivo and following in vitro expansion (cytokine production by intracellular cytokine staining and cytotoxicity by CD107 degranulation in flow cytometry) during treatment and follow-up compared to pre-treatment responses and the magnitude of improvement of the anti-viral T cell response;
    - the difference in functional T cell restoration between patients receiving DAA with or without ¿-inteferon by comparing levels of T cell responses during treatment and follow-up in the two groups of patients;
    - the time required for restoration of individual anti-viral T cell functions (cytotoxicity, IL2, TNF-alfa and IFN-gamma production) from start of therapy in each group of patients to assess which functions are more deeply exhausted and more difficult to be restored.
    - la percentuale di pazienti che presenteranno un potenziamento delle risposte T linfocitarie HCV-specifiche ex vivo e in seguito ad espansione in vitro (valutate come produzione di citochine tramite ICS e potenziale citotossico tramite degranulazione di CD107 in citometria a flusso) durante la terapia e durante il periodo di follow-up in confronto alle risposte pre-terapia e l’entità del miglioramento di tali risposte;
    - la differenza nel recupero funzionale dei linfociti T tra pazienti che riceveranno i DAA con o senza interferone-¿ attraverso il confronto dei livelli di risposte T linfocitarie durante il trattamento ed il periodo di follow-up nei 2 gruppi di pazienti;
    - il tempo richiesto per il ripristino di singole funzioni antivirali dei linfociti T (citotossicità, produzione di IL2, TNF-alfa e IFN-gammadall'inizio della terapia in ciascun gruppo di pazienti al fine di valutare quali di queste funzioni siano più profondamente esaurite e più difficili da ripristinare.

    end of the follow-up period of all enrolled patients
    fine del periodo di follow-up di tutti i pazienti arruolati
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    - the identification of NK cell phenotypic parameters showing changes in their expression detected by flow cytometry during therapy compared to pre-treatment time points;
    - the correlation between baseline HCV variants carrying mutations potentially affecting response to therapy or contained within potential T cell epitopic regions and intensity/specificity of HCV-specific T cell responses;
    - the effect of HCV mutants potentially resistant to therapy emerging during treatment on HCV-specific T cell responses.
    ¿ Identificazione di parametri fenotipici delle cellule NK suscettibili a variazioni dei livelli di espressione durante la terapia rispetto ai punti tempo pre-terapia;
    ¿ Correlazione tra la presenza a inizio terapia di varianti di HCV potenzialmente in grado di modificare la risposta alla terapia o comprese all¿interno di potenziali epitopi espressi dai linfociti T e l¿intensit¿/specificit¿ delle risposte T linfocitarie HCV-specifiche;
    ¿ L¿effetto sulle risposte T linfocitarie HCV-specifiche di mutanti di HCV potenzialmente resistenti alla terapia che dovessero emergere durante il trattamento.
