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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    Primary: To provide confirmatory data on the effect of 1.0 g/kg NewGam every three weeks in patients with active CIDP based on the percentage of responders at Week 24, which should corroborate the existing evidence on efficacy of IGIV in CIDP as known from published literature.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study described herein is conducted in accordance with the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki, and ICH-GCP (Note for Guidance CPMP/ICH/135/95), and national regulatory requirements. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully defined in order to protect subjects from contraindications, interactions with other medication and risk factors associated with the investigational medicinal product. Throughout the study safety was assessed, such as of monitoring of AEs, SAEs, vital signs and concomitant medication.

The same volumes and infusion rates were used regardless of the randomized group, with supplementation with an authorized 0.9% w/v isotonic sodium chloride solution as appropriate to maintain the blinding. There was the option of rescue treatment with two consecutive blinded infusions of 2.0 g/kg NewGam at 3-week intervals (±4 days) for all patients in the 0.5 and 1.0 g/kg NewGam arms who were either stable at Week 6 or deteriorated after Week 3 and before Week 18.

    Efficacy - Proportion of responders in the 1.0 g/kg NewGam arm at Week 24 (Termination Visit) relative to baseline (Week 0). A responder being defined as a patient with a decrease of at least 1 point on the adjusted Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) disability score (a scale from 0 to 10, from healthy to unable to make any purposeful movements with arms and/or legs)

    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: Primary endpoint was evaluated by comparing the lower limit of the 95% Wilson-Score CI for the percentage of responders on the adjusted INCAT disability scale in the 1.0 g/kg dose group with a predefined threshold of 42%. The response rates in the alternative dose groups were compared descriptively to the 1.0 g/kg treatment group, and the CIs for the differences were presented. Descriptive summaries are presented for each of the primary, secondary and exploratory variables.
