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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    · To assess the overall safety and tolerability of oral nafithromycin; · To assess the clinical response in the Intention-to-Treat (ITT) population at Day 4;
    Protection of trial subjects
    An internal, blinded Data Monitoring Committee reviewed the accumulated safety data on an ongoing basis.
    Background therapy
    None
    Evidence for comparator
    Moxifloxacin was selected as the optimal comparator for this Phase II CABP study, given its long history of efficacy and tolerability in this infection. The proposed dose regimen and treatment scheme (400 mg once daily for 7 days) was selected for consistency purposes worldwide as this study was planned to be conducted in different regions, such as Europe, US and South Africa.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Subjects were screened and enrolled at 36 study sites in Bulgaria, Georgia, Latvia, Romania, Serbia, South Africa, and the United States. Subjects were recruited from November 2016 to June 2017.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Adult subjects (≥18 years) with CABP were screened. Enrollment of PORT Risk Class II (PORT score 51 to 70) was capped at 50% and enrollment of subjects with allowed prior systemic antibiotic use (receipt of 1 or more dose(s) of a potentially effective systemic antibacterial treatment for treatment of the index CABP) was capped initially at 25%.

    Blinding implementation details
    Double dummy technique used to maintain the blind. Subjects in the nafithromycin arms also received placebo capsules matching moxifloxacin. Subjects in the moxifloxacin arm also received placebo tablets matching nafithromycin. Subjects in the nafithromycin 3-day treatment arm received matching placebo tablets on Days 4 through Day 7. Subjects in the nafithromycin 5-day treatment arm received matching placebo tablets on Days 6 and 7.

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: This was an exploratory study and, therefore, was not powered for inferential statistical analyses. No comparative statistical analyses for any endpoint were performed. The 95% confidence interval for the response was obtained using the Clopper- Pearson method.
