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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of the FAIR-PARK II trial is to demonstrate an effect of DFP on the course of PD (including both disease-modifying and symptomatic effects).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1-The disease-modifying effect
    2- The global effect on motor and non-motor symptoms
    3-Effects on quality of life and autonomy
    4-A health economics assessment will be performed via a specific questionnaire and EQ-5D questionnaire
    5-A biomarker analysis to assess the biomarkers' potential surrogate value :
    • MRI,Dopamine transporter (DaT) scan,Transcranial ultrasound
    • Data from the continuous assessment of PD-relevant domains with an unobtrusive, continuous; quantitative measurement tool
    • Surrogate marker: Iron metabolism: ferritin ,Ceruloplasmin levels, ceruloplasmin ferroxidase activity, and the ceruloplasmin genotype;the COMT Val158Met polymorphism will be assessed
    • Heavy metal assays: blood iron zinc,copper,magnesium,chrome,manganese, nickel,lead and cadmium levels, 24-hour urine copper and zinc levels.
    • Oxidative stress ,A specific biochemistry screen
    • Vitamins B1,B6,B12, E, A,and C,folates.
    • Inflammatory factors: tumour necrosis factor alpha and interleukin-6
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Adult Patients
    2. Parkinson’s disease diagnosed according The Movement Disorder Society Clinical Diagnotic Criteria for Parkinson’s Disease (PD).
    3. Treatment-naïve, i.e. the best population for assessing a disease-modifying effect without the interaction of dopaminergic treatment (no dopaminergic agonists, L-dopa, anticholinergics, monoamine oxidase B inhibitors (e.g. rasagiline) or deep brain stimulation).
    4. Patients covered by a Health Insurance System in countries where required by law
    5. Written informed consent dated and signed prior to the beginning of any procedures related to the clinical trial
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Disease duration greater than 18 months.
    2. Patients with high frequency of comorbidity or vital risks that may reasonably impair life expectancy
    3. Subject with handicap required dopaminergic treatment at the inclusion and therefore likely not to bear 9 months without symptomatic treatment
    4. Hoehn and Yahr stage 3 or more.
    5. Significant cognitive impairment (a Mini Mental State Examination score <24 or an equivalent impairment on a similar scale) or dementia diagnosed in accordance with the Movement Disorders Society criteria (Emre et al., 2007).
    6. Atypical or secondary parkinsonism (supranuclear palsy, multisystem atrophy, etc.) or anomalies on MRI suggestive of vascular involvement or significant cortical or subcortical atrophy (i.e. atypical for PD).
    7. Progressing axis I psychiatric disorders (psychosis, hallucinations, substance addiction, bipolar disorder, or severe depression), in accordance with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
    8. Subjects undergoing brain stimulation.
    9. Hypersensitivity to deferiprone.
    10. Patients with agranulocytosis or with a history of agranulocytosis.
    11. Patients taking a treatment at risk of agranulocytosis (clozapine, Closaril®/Leponex®).
    12. Patients with anaemia (regardless of the latter's aetiology) or a history of another haematological disease. Haemochromatosis is not an exclusion criterion.
    13. Pregnant or breastfeeding women or women of childbearing potential not taking highly effective contraception.
    14. Kidney or liver failure.
    15. Other serious diseases.
    16. Inability to provide informed consent.
    17. Participation in another clinical trial within 3 months prior to inclusion in the study
    18. Patient who has suffered mild or moderate depressive episode and isn’t in remission and on a stable medication for at least 8 weeks
    19.Due to the high risk of agranulocytosis caused by the IMP and the unknown mechanism by which this agranulocytosis is induced, it is not allowed to combine Deferiprone with other medicinal products causing agranulocytosis (as described in the IB). Such medicinal products are the already mentioned clozapine and also some NSAIDs (e.g. Phenylbutazone or Metamizole), antithyroid agents, sulfonamide antibiotics or metothrexate.
    20. A history of relapsing neurotropenia


    o Exclusion criteria for the biomarker study and the ancillary study
    (i) MRI:
    • Subjects for whom MRI is contraindicated (metal objects in the body, severe claustrophobia, pacemaker, incompatible surgical material).
    • Very severe rest tremor, which could induce MRI artefacts.
    (ii) Lumbar puncture:
    • Blood coagulation disorders, antiplatelet drugs or anticoagulants.
    • Intracranial hypertension.
    (iii) Contraindications to nitrous oxide:
    • Ventilation with FiO2 >50%, emphysema or pneumothorax
    • Altered states of consciousness, non-cooperative patient (need to stop the nitrous oxide)
