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
    - To assess the safety and PK / PD profile in this dose finding study of cangrelor in this neonatal population. - To determine the plasma concentrations of cangrelor and its primary metabolite, AR-C69712, during administration and after cessation of the infusion in neonates. - To determine the PD of cangrelor at various doses in neonates as assessed by light transmittance aggregometry (LTA) (primary)and microfluidic flow chamber (exploratory). - To assess recovery of platelet function in neonates by LTA after cessation of the infusion. - To determine the appropriate dose(s) to evaluate in future safety and efficacy trials in neonates. - To evaluate the safety of cangrelor in neonatal subjects by evaluating adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) and Adverse Events of special interest (AESIs).
    Protection of trial subjects
    An independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) was convened for this study for the purpose of reviewing safety data following completion of each initial cohort. A recommendation was to be provided by the DMC to the Sponsor to either continue the study without modification, to modify the study, or to discontinue the study following review of safety data from each cohort. The DMC was not charged with review of data from the Cohort 1 or Cohort 2 expansions. This study was conducted in compliance with the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) E6 Good Clinical Practices (GCP) guidelines, the Declaration of Helsinki, and other local regulations as applicable. Written informed consent was obtained from all subjects’ parents, guardians, or legally authorized representatives as per IRB guidelines before any study-related procedures (including any protocol-specified pre-treatment procedures) were performed. However, standard-of-care laboratory tests obtained prior to informed consent could have been utilized for screening to assess subject eligibility for the study if obtained within 72 hours prior to signing the informed consent.
    Background therapy
    Cangrelor is an antiplatelet agent which is a non-thienopyridine adenosine triphosphate analogue. Cangrelor is an antagonist of the P2Y12 receptor that is given intravenously (IV) and is characterized by rapid, direct, potent, predictable, and reversible platelet inhibition with rapid offset of effect. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) secreted from platelet-dense granules provides important autocrine and paracrine stimulation of platelet aggregation. Cangrelor effectively blocks ADP-induced platelet activation and aggregation as demonstrated in preclinical studies and clinical studies in the adult population.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    A total of 22 subjects were enrolled consisting of 20 eligible subjects who were assigned to cohorts and 2 subjects that failed screening. The first cohort (1-1E) includes 13 subjects (only 8 subjects have received cangrelor 0.5 µg/kg/min); the second cohort (2-2E) includes 7 subjects and all of them receive cangrelor 0.25 µg/kg/min.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    During screening (Day -7 to Day -2), eligibility (inclusion/exclusion criteria) was assessed, medical history and concomitant medications were recorded, and the following assessments were performed: physical examination, clinical laboratory tests (complete blood count [CBC],chemistry panel), and an ultrasound examination of the head.

    2_Percent recovery of platelet function by LTA assay after the infusion-mean values [13]
    End point description
    Recovery of platelet was measured by LTA (1 hour after completion of the cangrelor infusion). The percent inhibition of platelet aggregation 1 hour after cangrelor infusion was measured by LTA using 5 μM and 20 μM ADP in platelet-rich plasma. Data are presented as ≥ 90% inhibition of maximal and final platelet aggregation (mean and relevant standard deviation).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    16 Apr 2016
    Amendment #1 - The main changes from original version to Version 1 are: - Made the microfluidic flow chamber measurements an exploratory endpoint; - Inclusion criterion #2 modified to more specifically identify populations at high risk of a thrombotic event; - Exclusion criterion #5 changed to exclude subjects with weight ˂2.5 kg.
    27 May 2016
    Amendment #2 - The main changes from Version 1 to Version 2 are: - LTA to be performed using 5 μM and 20 μM ADP in platelet rich plasma to provide as complete information as possible on the PD profile of cangrelor in this population; - AEs and bleeding events to be graded using the 5-point scale recommended by the CTCAE (changed from grading AEs and bleeding events as mild, moderate, or severe for more accurate grading of the severity of AEs.
    05 May 2017
    Amendment # 3 - The main changes from Version 2 to Version 3 are: - The study was to include a minimum of 20 neonatal subjects; - The references to the volume of blood to be collected for PK and PD assessments was removed, and maximum mL/kg specified. The volumes of blood collected would be based on weight. - Added that any abnormal clinical laboratory test result obtained after treatment with cangrelor and/or during the follow up period which met the definition of AE or SAE. To provide guidelines to assist with determination of laboratory abnormalities as AEs and SAEs and to ensure they were properly recorded and repored. - Medication errors associated with AEs or SAEs to be reported as protocol deviations.
    20 Jun 2017
    Amendment #4 - The main changes from Version 3 to Version 4 are: - Added that the baseline ultrasound of the head could be performed up until 2 hours prior to surgery.To define the initial head ultrasound as baseline ultrasound and clarify the time frame in which the baseline ultrasound was performed.
    22 Jan 2018
    Amendment #5 - The main changes from Version 4 to Version 5 are: - Exclusion criterion #8 modified to “chest and/or mediastinal tube total fluid volume output of >3 mL/kg/hr at the time cangrelor is to be administered”. To clarify that the exclusionary volume of 3mL/kg/hr applied to the total output from both chest and mediastinal tubes, inclusive of all types of fluid output (e.g., clear, serosanguinous fluid,grossly bloody); - Exclusion criterion #9 modified to “subjects with evidence of sever hepatic or renal impairmen". To clarify that subjects with hepatic and renal impairment rather than failure were excluded per protocol criteria; - Safety endpoint(s) were revised to specify “clinically relevant” bleeding and to include bleeding in the urinary tract. To provide clarification regarding bleeding asAESI; add reference to urinary tract as bleeding is also assessed via urinalysis post-infusion.
    25 Sep 2018
    Amendment #6 - The main changes from Version 5 to Version 6 are: - Added expansion Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 To specify the expansion of the number of subjects in Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 and to obtain complete data from at least 5 subjects in each cohort; - Changed the PK and PD sample collection schedule for the expansion Cohorts 1 and 2 compared with the original PK and PD time points used for the first 5 subjects in Cohorts 1 and 2; - Addition of “diagnosed intravascular thrombosis” and “a confirmed decrease in either hemoglobin or hematocrit of >20% from the most proximate value measured at a protocol-required time point” to the list of AESIs to comply with the request of the DMC to include intravascular thrombosis as an AESI.
