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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess the effect of MIV-711 on target knee average pain over 26 weeks as measured by an 11-point numerical rating scale (1 week recall) in patients with symptomatic and radiographic knee osteoarthritis
    Protection of trial subjects
    Patients were observered in the clinics during the study visits. During the whole treatment period, the following safety assessments were performed at each visit; collection of adverse events and concomitant medications, vital signs, physical examination (full or targeted), ECG, standard safety laboratory parameters. The last visit (at week 30) was a safety follow-up where all the above safety assessments were evaluated except physical examination. In addition, a phone call was made after all dosing visits to assess safety and tolerability.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Patients with chronic knee pain and Kellgren and Lawrence (K-L) classification Grade 2 or 3 were included in the study. The study was conducted in 6 study centres in 6 countries, Bulgaria, Georgia, Germany, Moldova, Romania and United Kingdom.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The study population was adults aged between 40 and 80 with symptomatic and radiographic knee Osteoarthritis.

    Statistical analysis description
    A linear mixed model based on the mITT population was used. The model included fixed factors for treatment, time (measured in weeks), the interaction for treatment-by-time, baseline analgesic user (Yes/No), and random effect for clinical site. Baseline NRS was included as a covariate for adjustment. An unstructured covariance matrix was used to model the covariance pattern in the mixed effects model.

    Notes
    [1] - For the primary endpoint, the Type I error for the tests of the two doses was protected by performing a fixed-sequence multiple-testing procedure in the following order: Step 1: 200 mg versus placebo Step 2: 100 mg versus placebo The second step was only considered as confirmatory provided the previous step was significant at a one-sided 5%-level (p<0.05). If the previous step was not significant, the analysis of the following step was considered descriptive.
    [2] - The p-values reported is from Step 1 (comparing 200 mg versus placebo). The corresponding p-value from Step 2 (comparing 100 mg versus placebo) was 0.1458.

The model included fixed factors for treatment, time (measured in weeks), the interaction for treatment-by-time, baseline analgesic user (Yes/No), and random effect for clinical site. Baseline CTX-II score was included as a covariate for adjustment. An unstructured covariance matrix was used to model the covariance pattern in the mixed effects model.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    13 Jan 2016
    The purposes of this amendment were: • to update the protocol with all revisions to date including amendments made at the request of country health authorities and to update patient and study-related spects such as assessments, objectives, and inclusion/exclusion criteria that were found necessary upon further internal review. Minor typographic and grammar errors were corrected but are not detailed in this amendment summary, as they do not affect the conduct of the study.
    20 Jul 2016
    The purposes of this amendment were: • to include details about the option for all patients enrolled in the current study at the participating sites included in Extension Study MIV-711-202 to have the opportunity to participate in the extension protocol provided that they meet the eligibility criteria • to confirm that females must be non-pregnant at study screening • to delete the following: "At a patient's request, their data collected up to the point of withdrawal can also be withdrawn from the study and will not be used in the final analysis" • to clarify which concomitant steroids can be used during the study • to add a new subsection on Kellgren and Lawrence grade scoring • to provide further detail on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures • to provide clarity on visit numbers for Study MIV-711-201 and MIV-711-202 • to amend details of some of the footnotes in study schedule • to provide further detail on the safety follow-up visit • to provide an update on the planned analysis methods employed for the voluntarily consented pharmacogenomics samples • to update the wording pertaining to the potential phototoxicity that could not be excluded at the start of study MIV-711-201 but that meanwhile has been discarded following cell based assays as outlined in the updated Investigator Brochure. Even though no signs of phototoxicity potential could be seen in the in vitro cell assay, it is desirable to maintain assay conditions all through the study, hence the suggested wording change Minor typographic, formatting and grammar errors were corrected but are not detailed in this amendment summary, as they do not affect the conduct of the study or the safety of subjects.
