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
    The primary study objective was to evaluate the efficacy of repeat doses of ALD403 administered intravenously (IV) compared to placebo in subjects with chronic migraine.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Before each subject was admitted to the clinical study, informed consent was to be obtained from the subject (or his/her legally authorized representative) according to the regulatory and legal requirements of the participating country. The informed consent form (ICF) was to be dated and retained by the investigator as part of the clinical study records. The investigator was not to undertake any investigation specifically required for the clinical study until valid consent was obtained. The date consent was obtained was to be documented in the electronic case report form (eCRF). Each subject was to receive a fully signed copy of each consent form that he/she signed for the clinical study.
    Background therapy
    Any concomitant therapy used from the time the subject signed the ICF through Week 32 was recorded in the eCRF, including medications required for treatment of any AEs or SAEs. The medication name, dosage, date, and indication for use was recorded.
    Evidence for comparator
    There was not an active comparator in this study. To minimize the bias, this clinical study was randomized, double blinded and placebo controlled. Placebo-controlled studies are the gold standard to demonstrate the therapeutic effect of an active treatment intervention.

    Blinding implementation details
    This clinical study was double-blinded, meaning the subjects and site personnel were blinded to treatment assignment, except for the clinical study site’s unblinded pharmacist or designee. The study site had a written Blinding Plan in place to ensure blinding was adequately maintained for the study. The study remained blinded until the last subject completed the Week 12 visit.

    End point title
    Change in frequency of migraine days (Weeks 1-12)
    End point description
    For the study’s primary efficacy endpoint, the change in frequency of migraine days from Weeks 1-12 was measured in ALD403 groups at 300 mg and 100 mg, compared with placebo. This primary efficacy endpoint was calculated as the number of migraine days within 4-week intervals that were then averaged up to Week 12. The difference of this estimate from baseline was calculated as the change from baseline in the frequency of migraine days over Weeks 1-12.

    Notes
    [1] - Taken together and based on the decision rule, the results for the study’s primary efficacy endpoint were statistically significant in both the ALD403 300 mg and 100 mg groups compared with placebo.
    [2] - With a mean difference of -2.60 days (95% CI: -3.45, -1.74), the ALD403 300 mg dose demonstrated a statistically significant improvement (P<0.0001) from placebo.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    20 Mar 2017
    Amendment 1.1 - Applicable for Germany only, incorporating changes requested by German regulatory authorities. All changes made were incorporated into Amendment 2 for all countries.
    20 Mar 2017
    Amendment 2 Schedule of Events and Assessments: Clarified the window for randomization as 28 to 30 days after screening and clarified the window for treatment as within 8 days after randomization. Schedule of Events and Assessments footers: Further clarified the process and requirement of review by the medical monitor prior to randomization, clarified the window within which dosing must occur due to drug not typically being onsite at time of randomization, updated the timeframe of postdose vital sign measurement from 4 hours postdose to 2 hours postdose to be consistent with a shorter postdose observation period, updated timeframe of postdose the ECG procedure from 4 hours postdose to 2 hours postdose to be consistent with shorter postdose observation period, and postdose observation period after dosing completion was shortened from 4 hours to 2 hours based on review of safety data. Section 8.2: Clarified that exclusion of temporomandibular disorders must be acute or active. Added clarification to exclusionary headache and migraine types (unusual migraine subtypes such as hemiplegic migraine [sporadic and familial], ophthalmoplegic migraine and migraine with neurological accompaniments that are not typical of migraine aura [eg, diplopia, altered consciousness, or long duration]). Section 8.4.1: Added that study treatment must be discontinued with pregnancy or suicidal ideation or behavior and specified the action to be taken for subjects discontinued due to suicidal ideation and/or suicidal behavior. Section 9.4: Added restriction for hormonal therapy during the study (must remain stable through Week 32). Section 10.2.4: Clarified the scope of the screening physical examination to be comprehensive and appropriate to determine the overall physical health of each subject and clarified that examination of the genitourinary system and rectum may be deferred by the investigator if the subject’s related medical history and review of systems are negative.
    31 Aug 2017
    Amendment 3a Protocol Synopsis: Changes were made to update the following key secondary endpoints (50% migraine responder rate [Weeks 1-12], percentage of subjects with a migraine on the day after dosing, and reduction in migraine prevalence from baseline to Week 4) and other secondary endpoints (acute migraine medication usage and change in frequency of migraine days [Weeks 1-24]) to ensure consistency across the development program for ALD403 and to ensure endpoints that were important in understanding the efficacy of ALD403 were appropriately highlighted. Protocol Synopsis: A change was made to the sample size section to clarify that 350 subjects per group provides at least 90% power for the primary endpoint and not for the change from baseline tests. Protocol Synopsis: Changes were made to the statistical analysis section to ensure the text addressed the primary and additional key secondary endpoints. It was clarified that statistical inferential testing of the primary efficacy endpoint and key secondary endpoints will be performed while maintaining a study-wide type I error rate of 2-sided 5%, and not just a testing of the change from baseline in migraine days and responder rate. Section 5.3.2: Table 5.3 was updated to reflect the status of ALD403 clinical studies Section 5.4: Clarification was made to confirm the safety findings to date.
