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   43846   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Participants were enrolled at 42 study centers within the United States, Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Serbia and Netherlands. Study centers included academic medical centers and non-academic medical clinics.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The screening visit took place up to 28 days (4 weeks) prior to randomization and the participant's first dose of study drug. Screening occurred over multiple days to complete and obtain results for all assessments. Participants who meet all eligibility requirements returned for the next phase of the study.

    End point description
    The MMS is a tool designed to measure disease activity for ulcerative colitis. Scoring ranges from 0 to 9 points and consists of 3 subscores (stool frequency, rectal bleeding, and endoscopy findings), each graded 0 to 3 with higher score indicating more severe disease activity. Endoscopy findings scoring was performed centrally. Clinical remission was defined as a Mayo stool frequency subscore of less than or equal to (≤ 1), Mayo rectal bleeding subscore of 0 and a Mayo endoscopy findings subscore of ≤ 1.

    Fecal calprotectin is an inflammatory marker for the gastrointestinal tract and considered as a measurement of neutrophil migration to the gastrointestinal tract. Higher values indicate more serious inflammation. A decrease from baseline to Week 8 in fecal calprotectin indicates a reduction in inflammation.

    End point description
    Adverse events (AEs) were collected from the time a participant signed the informed consent. TEAEs were AEs occurring or worsening after the first dose of study drug (LYC-30937-EC 25 mg or placebo). Severity of AEs was assessed by the Investigator using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v4.03, with grading as follows: Grade 1 = mild (asymptomatic or mild symptoms), Grade 2 = moderate (minimal, local intervention, or noninvasive intervention indicated); Grade 3 = severe (or medically significant but not life-threatening); Grade 4 = life-threatening; Grade 5 = death.

    All directly observed and spontaneously reported AEs were recorded. Participants were also questioned about AEs. Severity of AEs was graded according to NCI CTCAE v4.03. AEs not included in the NCI CTCAE lists were graded according to the NCI CTCAE general guidelines.

    The following changes were made: • Section 6.5.7 (Monitoring Subjects for AEs of Special Interest) and Section 7.12 (Stopping Rules) were revised, and Section 7.12.1 (Suspension of Study) was added to be consistent with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) industry guidance on drug-induced liver injury. • The liver function test exclusion was reduced to 1.5 x the upper limit of normal. • The new Lycera facsimile number was added to the cover page. • Minor revisions/clarifications were made throughout.
    22 Jun 2016
    The following changes were made: • Exploratory efficacy endpoint referencing “mucosal healing” changed throughout to “endoscopic improvement” as histologic evaluation of mucosa to validate healing was not performed. • Secondary efficacy endpoint Week 8 TMS clinical remission definition revised to include rectal bleeding score of 0. • Section 4.4.1: Inclusion criteria 4 revised to require women of childbearing potential to use 2 highly effective forms of birth control. • Section 4.4.2: Elevated serum creatinine added to Exclusion criteria 6 to exclude patients with renal impairment. • Section 6.4.1 definition of left-sided disease added to clarify which subjects could have flexible sigmoidoscopy at week 8 based on demarcation of inflammation observed in Screening colonoscopy. • Section 6.4.1 clarified that endoscopy video recording was to be provided for central reading and central readers had study specific training, including that a Mayo endoscopic score of 0 or 1 could not include any degree of “friability” as this was inconsistent with remission. • Section 6.4.1 clarified that stool frequency and rectal bleeding data for Mayo scoring was obtained from the diary completed by the subjects. Also clarified that average stool frequency and rectal bleeding score calculated from the individual 3 consecutive days was used for the Mayo score. • Section 6.5.7 revised to state that study drug was to be withheld in subjects who exhibited any of the listed laboratory elevations in liver biochemical parameters and lactate. • Section 7.5 revised to add SAE reporting information including time frame for reporting SAEs to US FDA. • Section 6.6.1.2 clarified serial pharmacokinetic sub-study blood sample collection. • Section 7.10: sponsor medical monitor name and contact information added. • Section 7.12: individual stopping criteria added based on abnormal ECG findings of prolonged QT/QTc interval. • Section 11.1 removed statement that subjects were identified
