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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    228 participants with Tourette Syndrome were enrolled after completing one of two eligible parent studies.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Period I included an open-label period with titration and maintenance. Period II included randomized drug withdrawal in which participants were administered their current TEV50717 dose or placebo. Participants were re-titrated to TEV-50717. In Period III, participants continued their open-label maintenance dose of TEV50717.

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Incudes clinically significant changes such as changes in vital signs or lab values. Relationship of AE to treatment was determined by the Investigator. Serious AEs include death, a life-threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized the participant and required medical intervention to prevent the previously listed serious outcomes. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

    Change from baseline in the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS) Total Tic Score (TTS)
    End point description
    YGTSS rating scale is a semi-structured clinician rating instrument that provides an evaluation of the number, frequency, intensity, complexity, and interference of motor and phonic tics. YGTSS is composed of 11 items: 5 items for motor tic severity, 5 items for vocal tic severity, and 1 item for impairment. Each item for motor tic severity and vocal is rated on a 6-point scale (0 for none to 5 to severe). MTSS is the sum of the 5 items for motor tic severity and VTSS is the sum of the 5 items for vocal tic severity. TTS is the sum of MTSS and VTSS, ranges from 0 (none/absent) to 50 (severe). Higher scores indicate greater severity/worse outcome. Baseline is defined as the last measurement on or prior to the first dose of the open-label study medication.

    Change from baseline in the Tourette Syndrome-Clinical Global Impression (TS-CGI) score
    End point description
    The TS-CGI scale is a 7-point Likert scale that allows the clinician to use all available information to assess the impact of tics on the participant's quality of life. The TS-CGI is rated as follows: 1 (normal or no tics at all), 2 (borderline), 3 (mild), 4 (moderate), 5 (marked), 6 (severe), and 7 (extreme, incapacitating tics). Lower scores indicate better quality of life. Baseline is defined as the last measurement on or prior to the first dose of the open-label study medication.

    Change from baseline in the Tourette Syndrome-Patient Global Impression of Impact (TS-PGII) score
    End point description
    The TS-PGII is a single-item questionnaire that asks the participant to assess the degree of impact due to current tics (How much do your current tics disrupt things in your life?). The TS-PGII uses a 5-point scale, ranging from not at all (1) to very much (5), to assess overall response to therapy. Baseline is defined as the last measurement on or prior to the first dose of the open-label study medication.

    End point description
    C&A-GTS-QOL is a 27-item questionnaire that asks participant to assess the extent to which their quality of life is impacted by their symptoms. C&A-GTS-QOL contains 6 subscales (cognitive, coprophenomena, psychological, physical, obsessive-compulsive, and ADL) and uses a 5-point Likert scale ranging from no problem to extreme problem. Following 3 questions from 27-item questionnaire were assessed in ADL C&A-GTS-QOL subscale: Question 2 (Had difficulty with school or sport activities?), 24 (Felt you needed more help or support from other people?), and 26 (Had difficulty going out with other people?). Total score of ADL subscale ranged from 0 (no problem) to 12 (extreme problem). Lower score indicated better quality of life. Baseline is defined as the last measurement on or prior to the first dose of the open-label study medication.
