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   43850   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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 co-primary endpoints for the study were: • Demonstrate the non-inferiority (NI) of lefamulin versus comparator with respect to the Early Clinical Response (96 ± 24 hours after the first dose of study drug) in the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Analysis Set (FDA endpoint). • Demonstrate the NI of lefamulin versus comparator with respect to the Investigator’s Assessment of Clinical Response at Test of Cure (TOC) (i.e., 5-10 days after the last dose of study drug) in the modified-ITT (mITT) and Clinically Evaluable at TOC (CE-TOC) Analysis Sets (EMA endpoint).
    Protection of trial subjects
    This clinical study was conducted in compliance with the protocol, ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki in its revised edition, the guidelines of International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) (CPMP/ICH/135/95), European Union (EU) Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC, EU Commission Directive 2005/28/EC, and Code of Federal Regulation Title 21, Parts 50, 56 and 312, designated Standard Operating Procedures, and with local laws and regulations in the country of conduct. The study protocol and amendments were reviewed and approved by an IEC/IRB before conduct of the study at each participating site.

    -
    Evidence for comparator
    Moxifloxacin was chosen as the active comparator for multiple reasons. Consensus guidelines on the management of CAP in adults recommend a respiratory fluoroquinolone as an appropriate option for hospitalized patients admitted to a general ward, for outpatients with certain comorbid conditions, outpatients who have used antimicrobials in the previous few months, and outpatients in regions with high rates of macrolide-resistant S. pneumoniae regardless of co-morbidities or prior antibiotic use. The European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases also supports the use of fluoroquinolones for outpatient treatment of CAP in areas with increased bacterial resistance rates to tetracyclines and macrolides, as well as for empiric therapy on hospitalized patients with CAP. Moxifloxacin has established efficacy against the primary CAP pathogens, and is globally available in an oral formulation, which made it a suitable comparator in this study. Moreover, moxifloxacin does not require dose adjustment in patients with renal impairment.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study was designed to enroll adults with CABP who were eligible for oral therapy. Subjects with a PORT score of II, III and IV were eligible. The first subject was randomized in August 2016 and the last subject was randomized in December 2017.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Subjects who met inclusion criteria and did not meet exclusion criteria were randomly assigned to a treatment group. Administration of study drug was expected to occur as soon as possible after the diagnosis of CABP with all Screening/Baseline assessments expected to be completed within 24 hours before the first dose of oral study drug.

    The EMA co-primary endpoints were the percentages of subjects with an IACR of success at TOC in the mITT and CE-TOC Analysis Sets. Investigators assessed clinical response at the TOC visit. Subjects were classified as a success, failure, or indeterminate at TOC based on predefined definitions. Success was defined as resolution or improvement of clinical signs and symptoms such that no additional antibacterial therapy was administered for the treatment of the current episode of CABP. Subjects who had an IACR of failure at a prior visit did not have an IACR performed at TOC and were considered an IACR of failure at TOC.

    The non-inferiority (NI) test was a 1 sided hypothesis test performed at the 2.5% level of significance. This was based on the lower limit of the 2 sided 95% confidence interval (CI) for the observed difference in ECR responder rates (lefamulin group minus moxifloxacin group). The CI was calculated using an unadjusted continuity corrected Z test.

    Adverse events were recorded from the time of informed consent to the TOC Visit. Serious adverse events were recorded from the time of informed consent to the LFU Visit.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Subjects were evaluated for adverse events at each study visit. Questions were posed in a non leading manner so as not to bias the response. In addition to specific questioning, subjects were encouraged to spontaneously report adverse events. Adverse events were recorded whether or not they were considered to be study drug related.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    17 Feb 2016
    Amendment 1 addresses revisions to the protocol requested by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with respect to the non-inferiority margin. The change in the non-inferiority margin resulted in the change of other statistical parameters including the randomization ratio and sample size. FDA also requested an increase in the number of subjects with a PORT Risk Class of III or IV; methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) to be added to the list of pathogens that would exclude study eligibility; and increase in the number of pharmacokinetic sampling time points.
    17 Mar 2016
    Amendment 2 adresses an inconsistency within the protocol regarding the use of strong P-glycoprotein inhibitors
