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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Subjects took part in the study at two sites in India from 03 January 2018 (first subject enrolled to receive the study drug) to 18 September 2020 (last subject completed).

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Male subjects with diagnosis of Congenital Hemophilia A were enrolled in a single arm to receive alphanate. The study was to be conducted in 2 phases: Immune Tolerance Induction Phase followed by Prophylactic Phase. However, due to the limited enrollment, the study was terminated prior to the start of Prophylactic Phase.

    Dosage and administration details
    Subjects received Alphanate IV daily until complete immune tolerance was achieved or for 33 months if complete immune tolerance was not achieved. Alphanate was administered 100 International units (IU)/kg/day for at least 90 days during ITI phase. After the first 90 days, dose could be increased to 200 IU/kg/day if there was <20% decrease in inhibitor titer or an increase in the rate of bleeding events relative to the rate of bleeding events experienced during the first 90 days of treatment, or if the inhibitor increased to >500 Bethesda Units (BU), after initiation of Alphanate ITI treatment.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    10 Feb 2016
    The purpose of the amendment was to add synopsis, visits were changed from every month to Weeks 2, 4, 6, and 8 and monthly thereafter, inclusion criterion was changed to restrict range of inhibitor titer levels to > 0.6 BU and < 10 BU at Screening, exclusion criteria was changed to allow for previous use of treatments prohibited during the study (i.e., immunosuppressive drugs azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, high-dose immunoglobulin, interferon, or protein A column or plasmapheresis) prior to study enrolment, requirement to discontinue subjects who experience an interruption of ITI treatments for > 2 weeks, who receive < 80% of prescribed ITI treatment over a continuous 8-week period, or who experience a relapse during the Prophylactic Phase of the study was removed, assessment was added of FVIII:C in vivo recovery and if FVIII:C in vivo recovery is ≥ 66%, that separate visits will be needed to perform the FVIII:C half-life assessment.
    20 Dec 2016
    The purpose of the amendment was to add 2-hour time window at the 12-hour timepoint when sampling for FVIII:C half-life, immunosuppressive treatment initiated after inhibitor diagnosis will be collected under baseline characteristics was added.
    21 Mar 2019
    The purpose of the amendment was to increase participating sites from 20 to 30, emicizumab was added as a permitted concomitant medication.
