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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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 ).

    Percent Change From Baseline in Villous Height to Crypt Depth Ratio (VH:CD) at Week 12
    End point description
    Attenuation of the effects of gluten exposure was assessed by measuring the percent change from baseline in villous height to crypt depth ratio after 10 weeks of gluten challenge. Villi are the small fingerlike projections that line the small intestine and promote nutrient absorption and are often shortened in patients with Celiac disease. Crypts are grooves between the villi that are often elongated in patients with Celiac disease. A decreased VH:CD ratio indicates worsening disease. Small bowel biopsies were performed at baseline and week 12; histological assessments were performed by a blinded central pathologist. The analysis was conducted in the per protocol 1 (PP1) population which excluded non-evaluable subjects and subjects with major protocol deviations thought to affect the study’s ability to assess the effect of treatment, and included subjects who received gluten challenge for at least 1 week.

    Percent Change from Baseline in Intraepithelial Lymphocyte Density at Week 12
    End point description
    Intra-epithelial lymphocytes (IELS) are white blood cells found in the epithelial layer of the intestines where they function to preserve the integrity of the mucosal barrier by protecting the epithelium against pathogen‐ or immune‐induced pathology. Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes is associated with celiac disease. Small bowel biopsies were performed at baseline and week 12; histological assessments were performed by a blinded central pathologist. The analysis was conducted in the PP1 population.

    Number of Participants with Improvement in Marsh Score at Week 12
    End point description
    The Marsh classification system describes the stages of damage in the small intestine as seen under a microscope, with possible values of 0, 1, 2, 3a, 3b, or 3c. A score of 0 (best score) indicates that the intestinal lining is normal and celiac disease highly unlikely, a score of 3c (worst score) indicates increased intra-epithelial lymphocytes, increased crypt hyperplasia and complete villi atrophy. The analysis was conducted in the PP1 population.

    Number of Participants with Diarrhoea at Baseline and Week 12
    End point description
    The Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) is a pictorial aid to help subjects identify the shape and consistency of their bowel movements. Subjects were asked to complete this form daily using an electronic diary at the time of each bowel movement. The BSFS categorizes bowel movements into 7 types, from Type 1 (separate hard lumps, like nuts; hard to pass) to Type 7 (watery, no solid pieces, entirely liquid). Diarrhoea was defined at least one BSFS score >= 6 for the given week. The analysis was conducted in the PP1 population.

    Percent Change from Baseline in Total Weekly Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) Score at Week 12
    End point description
    The GSRS is a 15-question 7-scale questionnaire used to assess 5 dimensions of gastrointestinal syndromes: diarrhea, indigestion, constipation, abdominal pain and reflux. Questions are scored between 1 (no discomfort at all) and 7 (very severe discomfort). The total GSRS score is calculated as the sum of the scores of all 15 questions, and ranges from 15 (no discomfort at all) to 105 (very severe discomfort in all 5 dimensions of gastrointestinal syndromes). The analysis was conducted in the PP1 population.

    The CeD-GSRS score is derived from a subset of questions from GSRS questionnaire (questions 1, 4-9, 11, 12 and 14), which are each assessed on a scale of 1 (no discomfort at all) to 7 (very severe discomfort). The total CeD-GSRS score ranges from 10 (no discomfort at all) to 70 (very severe discomfort in all celiac syndromes). The analysis was conducted in the PP1 population.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    20 May 2016
    The following changes were made: 1. To reduce burden on patients, gluten stool sample collection was made optional except for the two samples collected at the time of the endoscopy and biopsy collection (Screening and Week 12 / Early Termination, which remain mandatory). 2. The rules for collection of stool samples were revised to allow a more flexible window of ±3 days and to allow any place of collection rather than the patient’s home only. 3. The time of collection of the blood cell pellet was changed to allow collection at any time during study. 4. The cut-off value of mucosal damage, under which subjects were excluded from the gluten challenge, was lowered from 2 to 1.8. Subjects with VH:CD of ≤ 1.8 were not allowed to receive gluten challenge, while subjects with VH:CD ≥ 1.9 could receive challenge. 5. The age limit was increased to 80 years old. 6. The cut-off criterion of symptoms at baseline was increased from a CeD-GSRS score of 2 to 2.3. 7. The following discretion was added to Inclusion Criterion 10: “…unless investigator considers the abnormalities to be not clinically significant.” 8. A note was added to indicate that the Sponsor could arrange with the study sites the conduct of some of the intermediate visits at the subject’s home, provided that appropriate healthcare personnel conducted the visit with similar standards to visits conducted at the study site. 9. A duplicated sentence on mini-gut experiments in biopsy fragments was removed and minor inconsistencies were corrected. 10. The procedure for retaining unused vials was clarified. 11. It was clarified that the alternation of side of the abdomen for the SC injections was between visits and not between the two injections in the same visit. 12. It was clarified that the DSMB could, and was expected to, review unblinded data. The safety findings insufficient to trigger the stopping rules could, if judged appropriate by the DSMB, lead to suspension of enrollment during review.

    The following changes and clarifications were made: 1. Elimination of the stool test as an eligibility criterion, since endoscopy and biopsy already identified patients with gluten contamination, as revealed by mucosal atrophy. 2. Removal of the exclusion criterion for blood donation 3 months before study entry, initially meant to prevent anemia by avoiding administering gluten challenge to patients who had had a recent blood donation; the precaution was considered unnecessary and preventing otherwise eligible patients from enrolling in the study. Blood donation remained prohibited during the study. 3. Modest villous atrophy threshold was changed for patients not receiving the gluten challenge to avoid excluding a few candidates, which would otherwise be considered eligible for the study.
