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   43857   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of K-877 0.2 mg twice daily compared to placebo from baseline to Week 12 in lowering fasting triglyceride (TG) levels in patients with fasting TG levels ≥500 mg/dL (5.65 mmol/L) and <2000 mg/dL (22.60 mmol/L).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki; ICH GCP; General Data Protection Regulation or Directive 2001/20/EC (in the EU); the FDA GCP, as described in 21 CFR Parts 11, 50, 54, 56, and 312 and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (in the US); and the laws and regulations of the country where the study was conducted. Prior to the initiation of any study procedures, each patient signed and dated an approved informed consent form. Each patient was assured of his/her right to withdraw from the study at any time.

    Evidence for comparator
    Fenofibrate (145 mg once daily) was chosen as the active comparator for the 40-week Extension Period of this study based on current guidelines for the management of severe hypertriglyceridemia.

    Blinding implementation details
    Key results from lipid parameters were blinded prior to Week 16. Investigators received an alert for TG levels >2000 mg/dL (22.60 mmol/L) at any time during the study as well as a sham alert for TG elevation during the 12-week Efficacy Period to ensure study blinding was maintained.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    18 Aug 2017
    • Defined inclusion criteria that patients on a low-intensity statin or not on a statin needed to meet. They were consistent with, and further clarify, the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Guideline on the Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults (2013). • Clarified eGFR criteria and procedures for screen failures and potential transfer to the other parallel study, Study K-877-303. For patients who were transferred from Study K-877-303, their Visit 1 procedures were to be skipped and a written consent was required prior to any other procedures at Visit 2. • Permitted the inclusion of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus on fixed-dose regimens insulin or insulin analogues to make this study available to a wider population. • Permitted the inclusion of patients with positive HCV antibody, but no detectable HCV RNA or evidence of active HCV infection, to exclude only patients who have evidence of active HCV infection. • Simplified thyroid exclusions for patients on replacement therapy to make them consistent for both patients on therapy or untreated. • Specified an exception for prohibited medications based on the result of the drug-drug interaction study with clarithromycin known as an inhibitor of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and CYP3A4. • Updated precautions for coadministrating medications based on the result of the drug-drug interaction study with clopidogrel (CYP2C8 inhibitor).
