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   44173   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7329   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy (rate of decrease in N terminal pro-hormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) of more than 30% from baseline to Day 28) and the safety (blood pressure changes until Day 28) of QGC001 up-titrated from 50 mg twice daily to a maximum of 500 mg twice daily.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Further exploratory objectives of the study are
    *To assess the effects of these doses on a composite endpoint of death from any cause and hospitalization for worsening heart failure (WHF) at Day 28 and after drug discontinuation up to Day 35.
    *To assess the effects of the respective dose levels, and of all doses combined, on changes in NT-proBNP and BNP, from baseline to Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, and after drug discontinuation from day 28 to day 35
    *To assess the changes in quality of life Minnesota Living with Heart Failure questionnaire score from randomization to day 28
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria

    *Clinical diagnosis of CHF with history of NYHA class II-III for at least 3 months before randomisation.
    *Documented left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40% measured by any modality within the previous 12 months in the subject’s medical history.
    *Subjects must also have at least one local measurement of BNP level ≥ 300 pg/mL or NT-proBNP level ≥ 1200 pg/mL (preferred assay, local laboratory) at the screening visit (maximum 7 days before randomisation).

    *Serum potassium < 5.0 mmol/L at screening.
    *Systolic blood pressure ≥ 110 mmHg (average of 3 consecutive measurements) at screening.
    *Prescribed to optimal pharmacologic therapy per “ESC guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic heart failure 2016”, or based on the updated current clinical practice, unless contra-indicated or not-tolerated, and on a stable dose for at least 30 days prior to enrolment (the dosage of the drugs cannot be increased or decreased respectively by more than double or half of initial dosage).
    *Taking oral loop diuretics at doses < 250 mg furosemide daily (or equivalent).
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    *BMI > 45 kg.m-2.
    *Patients who require the use of HF IV therapy or oral furosemide > 250 mg (or equivalent) at any time during the 48 hours immediately before randomisation.
    *Patients with unstable angina, myocardial infarction, PTCA, coronary artery bypass graft, cerebral vascular accident, or transient ischemic attack within previous 3 months (90 days) before enrolment.
    *Patients whose primary cause of heart failure is mitral or aortic valve disease or congenital heart disease or hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy or infiltrative cardiomyopathy (e.g. amyloidosis, sarcoidosis) or myocarditis.
    * Patients with “new” permanent atrial fibrillation (AF), discovered within 3 months prior to randomization.
    * Heart rate > 110 beats/min at screening.

    *Patients with severe documented chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD), defined as chronic need for oxygen therapy
    *eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (MDRD) at screening.
    * Decrease in eGFR greater than 20% within 3 weeks prior to the screening visit.
    *Serum potassium > 5.0 mmol/L at screening.
    *Systolic blood pressure < 110 mmHg or with signs or symptoms of hypotension.
    *Symptomatic hypotension or orthostatic hypotension defined by a decrease of systolic blood pressure of more than 30 mm Hg in the standing vs. sitting position at screening and at the basal SBP of the D0 (before having taken the study medication).
    *A marked baseline prolongation of QT/QTc interval (e.g. repeated demonstrated of a QTc interval > 450 ms) AND QRS < 100 ms. In case of QRS enlargement > 100 ms (i-e bundle branch block, pacemakers) QT does not accurately reflect repolarization and may not be calculated.
    * A history of additional risk factors for Torsade de Pointes (TdP) (e.g. hypokalemia, family history of long QT Syndrome).
    *The use of concomitant medications that prolong the QT/QTc interval.
    *Insulin-requiring diabetic patients (including type 1 Diabetes).

    *Frail patient who, in the opinion of the investigator will not be able to follow the protocol.
    E.5 End points
