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   44237   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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
    The primary objective of this trial was to establish equivalence in efficacy between BI 695501 and US-licensed Humira® at Week 16 in patients with active moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Only patients that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were to be randomized in the study. All patients were free to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time for any reason given. Close monitoring of all patients was adhered to throughout the trial conduct.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    All patients were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Patients attended a specialist sites which ensured that they (the patients) met all strictly implemented inclusion/exclusion criteria. Patients were not to be entered to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria was violated.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: Baseline characteristics are based on patients who were randomised after successfully completing the screening period and received at least one dose of the trial medication.

    The Static Physician’s Global Assessment (sPGA) is a 5-point score ranging from 0 to 4, based on the physician’s assessment of the average thickness, erythema, and scaling of all psoriatic lesions. The assessment was considered “static”, which referred to the patient’s disease state at the time of the assessment, without comparison to any of the patient’s previous disease states (dynamic), whether at Baseline or at a previous visit. A lower score indicated less body coverage, with 0 being clear, 1 being almost clear, and 4 being. Percentage = least squares means per treatment groups back transformed using inverse logit function.

    The percentage of patients achieving a Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) of 0 or 1 at Week 16
    End point description
    The DLQI is a subject-administered, 10-question, that covers 6 domains including symptoms and feelings, daily activities, leisure, work and school, personal relationships, and treatment. It has a 1-week recall period. Every item score ranges from 0 (not relevant/not at all) to 3 (very much). Question 7 is a “yes/no” question where “yes” is scored as 3. The DLQI total score was calculated by summing the scores of each question resulting in a range of 0 to 30 where 0-1 = no effect on subject’s life, 2-5 = small effect, 6-10 = moderate effect, 11-20 = very large effect, and 21-30 = extremely large effect on the subject’s life. The higher the score, the more the quality of life is impaired. If the answer to 1 question in a domain was missing, that domain was treated as missing. If 2 or more questions were left unanswered (missing), DLQI total score was treated as missing. Percentage = least squares means per treatment groups back transformed using inverse logit function.
