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   44237   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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.

    End point title
    Percentage of Subjects Who Achieved Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI 75) at Week 16
    End point description
    PASI correlates to the physician's assessment of psoriasis symptoms including redness of lesions, thickness of lesions, scaliness of lesions and extent of disease. Each parameter is graded from 0-4, 0 refers to no disease and 4 to severe involvement. The body is divided into 4 areas for scoring (head, arms, trunk to groin, legs to top of buttocks), and the final score ranges from 0-72 with higher scores reflecting more disease severity. The PASI-75 response is defined as the percentage of subjects who achieved at least a 75% improvement in PASI score from Baseline. The per-protocol (PP) Analysis Set included all randomized and treated subjects who did not have any major protocol deviations during the Core Treatment Period with respect to factors likely to affect the efficacy of treatment.

    Percentage of Subjects Who Achieved PASI 50, 75, 90 and 100 at Week 52
    End point description
    PASI correlates to the physician's assessment of psoriasis symptoms including redness of lesions, thickness of lesions, scaliness of lesions and extent of disease. Each parameter is graded from 0-4, 0 refers to no disease and 4 to severe involvement. The body is divided into 4 areas for scoring (head, arms, trunk to groin, legs to top of buttocks), and the final score ranges from 0-72 with higher scores reflecting more disease severity. The PASI 90 response rate at Week 52 is measured as the percentage of subjects who achieved at least 50, 75, 90 and 100% improvement from baseline PASI at Week 52. The ETP-PP Analysis Set was used. Here "Number of subjects analyzed" signifies those who were evaluable for this endpoint.

Clinical meaningful was determined by the investigator. Safety Analysis Set (SAF) included all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of MSB11022 or EU-approved Humira in the Core Treatment Period, up to Week 16. Subjects in the Safety Analysis Set were analyzed according to the actual treatment received initially during the relevant treatment period.

    The DLQI is a 10-item validated quality-of-life questionnaire that covers 6 domains: symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, and treatment. The DLQI measures how much subject's skin problems has affected his life. Responses range from 0=Not at all to 3=Very much. The DLQI total score is the sum of individual 10 items and could range from 0 to 30 (higher score indicated greater negative impact on life). PP analysis set was used. Here "Number of subjects analysed" signifies those who were evaluable for this endpoint.

Each dimension has 5 response options (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems) that reflect increasing levels of difficulty. The subject was asked to indicate his/her current health state by selecting the most appropriate level in each of the 5 dimensions. The responses are converted into a single index value, with scores ranging from -0.594 to 1 (a higher score indicates better health state). PP analysis set was used.

    The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire assesses 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 response options (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems) that reflect increasing levels of difficulty. The subject was asked to indicate his/her current health state by selecting the most appropriate level on a visual analog scale, where the subject was asked to rate current health status on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst imaginable health state. PP analysis set was used. Here "Number of subjects analyzed" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint and "n" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint at specified category.

    European Quality of Life 5-Dimensions and 5-Levels Questionnaire (EQ5D-5L) Based on VAS Score at Week 24 and 52
    End point description
    The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire assesses 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 response options (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems) that reflect increasing levels of difficulty. The subject was asked to indicate his/her current health state by selecting the most appropriate level on a visual analog scale, where the subject was asked to rate current health status on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst imaginable health state. ETP-PP analysis set was used. Here "Number of subjects analyzed" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint and "n" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint at specified category.

    Number of Subjects With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, TEAEs of Special Interest and TEAEs Leading to Death up to Week 16
    End point description
    Adverse event(AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in subject which does not necessarily have causal relationship with treatment. AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign(including abnormal laboratory finding), symptom/disease temporally associated with use of medicinal product, whether/not considered related to medicinal product. A serious adverse event(SAE) was AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial/prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. Term TEAE is defined as AEs starting/worsening after first intake of the study drug. TEAEs included both Serious TEAEs and non-serious TEAEs. Safety (SAF) Analysis Set was all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of MSB11022 or EU-Humira. Subjects in SAF were analyzed according to actual treatment received initially during the relevant treatment period.
