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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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.

    E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
    E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
    endogenous Cushing’s syndrome
    E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
    Endogenous Cushing’s syndrome occurs when a person makes too much cortisol. Usually, the cause is a growth in the pituitary gland, but growth can be in other parts of the body like the adrenal glands.

    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Provision of signed and dated informed consent prior to any study-specific procedures
    2. Men and women 18-80 years of age (inclusive) at screening
    3. Subjects must have a confirmed diagnosis of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome as evidenced by
    baseline UFC 1.3 to 10 × ULN (mean of all 24-hr UFC levels obtained during the screening period within 28 days of enrolment into the open-label dose-escalation period) AND documentation at any time of ONE of the following three criteria:
    • For subjects with a diagnosis of pituitary Cushing’s syndrome, either:
    − Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmation of pituitary adenoma (greater than or equal to 0.6 cm), OR
    − For subjects with a pituitary microadenoma less than 0.6 cm, bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS) showing an ACTH gradient > 2 before or > 3 after corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) or desmopressin (DDAVP) stimulation, OR
    − For subjects who have had prior pituitary surgery: histopathology confirming an ACTH-staining adenoma
    • For subjects with a diagnosis of adrenal Cushing’s syndrome: MRI or computed tomography (CT) of the adrenal glands showing an adrenal tumor
    • For subjects with a diagnosis of ectopic ACTH as the cause of their Cushing’s syndrome: ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome and either:
    − MRI showing no pituitary adenoma, OR
    − MRI showing only a small pituitary adenoma (< 0.6 cm) AND a negative BIPSS, OR
    − For subjects who have had prior pituitary surgery: histopathology that is negative for an ACTH-staining adenoma
    4. Subjects with a history of prior pituitary surgery must be at least 3 months post-surgery at the time of the screening visit
    5. Body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 60 kg/m2, inclusive, at screening
    6. Female subjects must be postmenopausal > 2 years OR must have been permanently surgically sterilized (bilateral salpingectomy or tubal occlusion) > 2 years OR male partner(s) has had a vasectomy > 2 years OR must consent to use two permitted medically-acceptable methods of contraception throughout the study during any sexual intercourse with a male partner. Permitted medically-acceptable methods of birth control for this study include oral contraceptives, contraceptive implants, Depo-Provera®, contraceptive patch, vaginal ring, male condom, female condom, spermicide, diaphragm with spermicide, cervical cap with spermicide, contraceptive sponge, or an intrauterine device (IUD) that does not contain steroid hormones; IUDs must have been in place for at least 28 days prior to first dose of study drug.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Pseudo-Cushing’s syndrome, cyclic Cushing’s syndrome or current iatrogenic Cushing’s syndrome
    2. Subjects who are considered candidates for surgical treatment of Cushing’s syndrome, unless it is clearly
    documented that the subject has refused such surgery or that surgery cannot be scheduled for at least the
    anticipated duration of the study
    3. Normal late night salivary cortisol value during screening, unless the subject’s history clearly demonstrates that he or she does not have pseudo-Cushing’s or cyclic Cushing’s. If the subject has a normal late night salivary cortisol, and the PI feels the subject does not have pseudo-Cushing’s or cyclic Cushing’s, the subject may be enrolled with approval of the medical monitor
    4. Normal 24-hr UFC during screening (this would be suggestive of cyclic Cushing’s)
    5. Radiotherapy of the pituitary within 6 months prior to or during screening
    6. For subjects with pituitary Cushing’s syndrome, any compression of the optic chiasm or the presence of a tumor within 2 mm of the optic chiasm on the most recent pituitary MRI prior to or during screening
    7. Use of or medical requirement for any of the following medications within the timeframes specified below prior to collection of the first 24-hr UFC during Screening and throughout study participation:
    • Inhibitors of steroidogenesis (ketoconazole, metyrapone): 1 week
    • Pituitary-directed agents: Dopamine agonists (bromocriptine, cabergoline) and PPARĪ³ agonists (rosiglitazone or pioglitazone): 4 weeks
    • Octreotide LAR, Lanreotide SR and Lanreotide autogel: 14 weeks
    • Octreotide (immediate release formulation): 1 week

    • Mifepristone: 3 weeks
    8. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, as evidenced by HbA1c > 9.0% at screening
    9. Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as systolic blood pressure > 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 90 mmHg during screening. Note: if appropriate, subjects may have blood pressure medications adjusted and blood pressure reassessed at an unscheduled visit prior to Visit T1.
