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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: 53 patients were screened and only 30 were randomized due to screen Failure.

    Primary: Change from baseline in carotid artery mean vessel wall area at 24 weeks

    End point timeframe
    24 weeks
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: A linear mixed-effect model was used for the analysis of this primary outcome. Nevertheless, despite a tendency regarding W24 visit and CER-001 treatment, no significant association was evidenced regarding the effect of CER-001 on carotid artery MVWA within 24 weeks of treatment (parameter estimate = -1.46; P-value = 0.051).

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Nov 2015
    • Changes in the study phase from II/III to phase III • Clarification of the study objective by deleting the efficacy and safety evaluation of cer-001 on ApoA 1 • Update of the study methodology by adding clarification to the genetically defined familial primary hypoalphalipoproteinemia : FPHA – mutation in ApoA1 and/or ABCA1 gene, • Update of number of patients and the sample size calculation with a total of 30 patients instead of approximately 30 patients, • Modifications of study population • Update of the section 5 Risk Benefit Statement, since the contrast agent use was not requested for the MRIs in this study, • Update of the section 6.1 – overview of the study design and dose regimen selection, with addition of a time window of +/- 2 days around the strict weekly or biweekly date, • Update of the section 6.4 – Number of patients and assignment to treatment group, for clarification, • Minor modifications / clarifications of study procedures and the flowchart, • Update of the Section 8.5.1 - Assessment of Vascular Structure of the Carotid and Femoral with 3T-MRI with addition of a time window of +/- 7 days around the strict date, • Update of Section 8.6 – Assessments and Procedures for Patients who Prematurely Discontinue Study Medication, by deleting the following condition: “In case of stopping prematurely study medication because of positive testing for anti-ApoA-1 antibody, patient should also to come back monthly for testing until the anti-ApoA-1 antibodies level returns to screening value”, • Update of the Section 8.7.5 – Immunogenicity Testing by clarification that in case of positive result for the presence of neutralizing anti-ApoA-1 antibody at the end of treatment period visit, the patients must return monthly for testing until the antibodies return to screening value, • Update of the Section 12.5 - Populations for Analysis, by modifiying the ITT population into midfied mITT population
    13 Dec 2016
    • Addition of an open-labeled safety extension phase after the 48 weeks of blinded treatment as described in the protocol version 2.0 19NOV2015, • Update of the planned recruitment period and anticipated study duration, • Update of the objectives and parameters related to open-labeled safety extension study, • Redefinition of study population with the update of ApoA-1 level as ≤110 mg/dL and HDL level as ≤ 35 mg/dL or 0.9 mmol/L, • Clarification to the inclusion criterion n°6 regarding the stable lipid lowering therapies definition • Addition of inclusion criteria for background symptomatic or asymptomatic cardiovascular disease, ApoA-1 level ≤ 110 mg/dL and HDL-cholesterol level ≤ 35 mg/dL or 0.9 mmol/L

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? Yes
    Date
    Interruption
    Restart date
    21 Dec 2018
    Results from the double-blind portion of the TANGO STUDY were analyzed and showed that although no major treatment-related adverse events were observed, confirming the safety and good tolerance profile of CER-001, there was also no evidence of benefit since analysis of the primary efficacy Endpoint data did not show a statistically significant reduction in carotid atheroma plaque of CER-001 relative to placebo treatment. In view of this lack of benefit to patients, the trial was terminated early.
