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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    We propose an open label pragmatic clinical and laboratory study designed to to determine the molecular effects of IL-17 and inhibition of IL-17 with secukinumab on neutrophil phenotype and lifespan changes over time.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Trial Steering Committee (TSC) SATURN Trial Steering Committee is responsible for providing overall supervision of the trial. In particular, the TSC will concentrate on the progress of the trial, adherence to the protocol, patient safety and consideration of new information. The TSC must be in agreement with the final Protocol and, throughout the trial, will take responsibility for: o Making major decisions such as continuing or terminating the trial. o Determine whether amendments to the protocol or changes in study conduct are required. o Monitoring and supervising the progress of the trial. o Reviewing relevant information from external sources. o Convening any ‘Ad Hoc’ Safety Committee (if the need arises). o Considering recommendations from any ‘Ad Hoc’ Safety Committee (if necessary to convene). o Advising the TMG on all aspects of the trial. Meetings will be held at regular intervals determined by need, but no less than once a year. The ultimate decision for the continuation of the trial lies with the TSC. A TSC Charter will be agreed at the first meeting which will detail how it will conduct business. Ad-hoc Safety Committee If a situation arises where a high proportion of patients Serious Adverse Event reporting, an ad-hoc safety committee will be convened to specifically look at safety. In this situation the ‘ad-hoc’ ISDMC will provide recommendations to the Trial Steering Committee concerning the continuation of the study. Independent Data and Safety Monitoring Committee (ISDMC) The ISDMC will be responsible for reviewing and assessing recruitment, interim monitoring of safety and effectiveness, trial conduct and external data. The ISDMC will first convene prior to trial opening and will then define frequency of subsequent meeting (at least annually). The ISDMC will provide a recommendation to the Trial Steering committee concerning the continuation of the study.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Sample Size: 20 Patients plus 10 healthy controls are to be enrolled from 1 study centre (Aintree University Hospital) Recruitment was estimated to be over a period of 24 months in total with 12 months of therapy, and 12 months for staggered enrolment and laboratory investigations.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    48 screened 19 registered to the treatment arm, 1 registered to DMARD only and 10 registered to the healthy control arm.

    Arm description
    Secukinumab 150-300mg subcutaneous injection once weekly for the first 4 weeks then 150mg 4 weekly for up to 48 weeks. In addition, patients will continue receiving their normal disease modifying anti- rheumatic drugs (DMARD).

    Routes of administration
    Subcutaneous use
    Dosage and administration details
    All doses of secukinumab will be given subcutaneously (sc) using the following schedule: Weekly injection of up to 150 – 300 mg sc injections for four week induction period, followed by injections of 150 mg once a month thereafter, for the remainder of the study period (total of 12 months). No dose modification should be used for secukinumab. DMARD medication Patients will continue to use their normal DMARD treatment, with standard monitoring according to normal clinical practice for the length of the trial. The patients will continue on their standard DMARD therapy which will consist of one of the following medications: sulphsalazine, methotrexate or leflunomide with standard monitoring according to normal clinical practice for the length of the trial. DMARD dosing will be kept stable where possible, following standard protocols used in the clinic for normal clinical practice. Standard drug monitoring procedures will be performed (e.g., monthly blood tests for methotrexate)

    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: The second DMARD only arm recruited 1 patient who withdrew consent before treatment administered and therefore is not part of the analysis set. Only the 19 patients on Secukinumab were analysed

    Date
    Amendment
    05 Apr 2016
    Substantial Amendment 1 (prior to greenlight) – protocol v3.0, 25th February 2016: protocol and PIS amended following MHRA review. Summary of changes: o Additional detail on the requirement for participants of child bearing potential or male participants with partners of child bearing potential to use effective contraception for the duration of the trial and outlining the length of time following completion of the medication that participant would need wait prior to planning pregnancy. o Addition of monthly pregnancy tests extra to the initial one performed at screening o Modification of the tuberculosis assessment and addition of the tests to screening o Clarification of the complete physical examination performed at screening and subsequent trial visits to add major organ systems and lymphadenopathy o Addition of the vital signs checks (Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, Body Temperature) at screening and subsequent trial visits to comply with leflunomide SmPC o Live vaccines was added to the list of exclusion criteria o Addition of a final follow-up one month after the last treatment dose. The PIS was also amended (Patient PIS version 3.0 dated 16th March 2016) to incorporate the requirement for pregnancy tests and for effective contraception for sexually active participants.
    24 Mar 2017
    Substantial Amendment 2: the following documents were updated: o Protocol v4.0 (9th December 2016) (see amendment details below) o Patient-PIS v4.0 (5th December 2016) to reflect the change in registration process o Health control-PSI v3.0 dated 9th December 2016 to reflect change in registration process o GP letter v3.0 (9th December 2016) to reflect the change in registration process Protocol amendment summary: • Simplification of the inclusion/exclusion criteria • Inclusion of patients who failed at least on DMARD treatment instead of two • Removal of the exclusion of patients taking high-potency opioid analgesic (e.g. methadone, hydromorphone, morphine) • Patient-PIS v4.0 (5th December 2016) to reflect the change in registration process • Healthy control-PSI v3.0 dated 9th December 2016 to reflect the change in registration process • GP letter v3.0 (9th December 2016) to reflect the change in registration process • Replacement of the randomisation process by a simple registration for Secukinumab, to be compared to non-study patients receiving DMARD alone. For the stud primary outcome randomisation was not required. Patients who prefer to stay on oral medication rather than a parenteral drug, or who do not like the thought of having a novel biologic, will be recruited outside of the SATURN trial as part of another research study for which the chief investigator has ethical approval to perform neutrophil measurements.
