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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a 14-day course versus a 28-day course of aztreonam for inhalation solution (AZLI) in pediatric participants with new onset Pseudomonas aeruginosa respiratory tract infection or colonization.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The protocol and consent/assent forms were submitted by each investigator to a duly constituted Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB) for review and approval before study initiation. All revisions to the consent/assent forms (if applicable) after initial IEC/IRB approval were submitted by the investigator to the IEC/IRB for review and approval before implementation in accordance with regulatory requirements. This study was conducted in accordance with recognized international scientific and ethical standards, including but not limited to the International Conference on Harmonization guideline for Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP) and the original principles embodied in the Declaration of Helsinki.

    31 Mar 2017
    • All computed tomography (CT) scan assessments were removed • Exploratory objectives and endpoints related to CT scans were removed • Clarified that all retreatment options listed in the protocol were non-exclusive • Clarified that spirometry was only to be performed on participants who can reliably perform spirometry assessments • Clarified that clinical observation should also be performed pre-and poststudy drug administration for participants 6 years of age and older who can’t reliably perform spirometry assessments • Removed collection of body weight, height and vital signs after baseline, with the exception of unscheduled visits • Removed all nasal swabs assessments after Day 1 • Eligibility criteria clarified as needed • Corrected the follow-up culture phase schedule to specify that the first visit will occur at Week 16 and then every twelve weeks after that • Removed hematology and serum chemistry samples from Baseline (if results are available within the last 12 months) and from the follow-up culture phase • Clarified that participants must switch IP kits at Day 15.
    06 Nov 2017
    • The number of study centres were increased from 75 to 85 to mitigate risk of slow recruitment • Exclusion criterion was amended so that antibiotics such as azithromycin were allowable in 7 days prior to Screening • Respiratory sample collection methods expanded • Biomarker sections updated to allow PA-specific antibody titre blood draw to be avoided if results were available within 24 months • Change made to prohibited concomitant medication section to clarify that concurrent use of oral antipseudomonal antibiotics for a respiratory event was prohibited from Screening to Day 28 • Spirometry sections updated to clarify that percentage of forced expiratory volume (FEV1%) predicted was reported at all visits and was calculated by site • Clarification throughout study procedure section as to what types of AEs/SAEs were reported at each visit • Medical History section updated to clarify that the participant`s PA infection history, including the number of previous PA infections, number of cultures taken and sampling methods in the previous 2 years were also recorded.
    15 Apr 2020
    • Clarification on how the missing PA culture data was evaluated • Documentation of which personnel wiould be blinded/unblinded throughout the study • Clarification that 130 evaluable participants were required for the efficacy analyses • Unblinding of Gilead personnel was required for the primary analysis • Confirmed that respiratory samples collected outside of the study as standard of care may be sent to local laboratory • Local lab culture data may be used for analysis purposes • The Biofire testing panel would be used for microbiological assessment of the nasal swabs.

    Interruptions (globally)
    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? Yes

    Interruption
    Restart date
    23 Sep 2021
    During ongoing Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the risk of continuing the trial in this vulnerable CF pediatric participant population considerably outweighed the benefits of trial continuation. Therefore, the study was terminated early and at the time of study termination, all evaluable participants completed the initial eradication period and provided data for the primary analysis; more than 60% of participants evaluable for the primary analysis also completed 108‑weeks follow‑up period, in line with the terms of the agreed pediatric investigational plan (PIP) for Cayston approved by the Pediatric Committee (PDCO) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, exceptional measures were adopted where necessary to mitigate the impact to the conduct of the trial. These measures included: on site participant visits rearranged into remote visits, on site participant visits performed however without all per protocol required study procedures, remote site close out visits and etc. Expected periodic reports detailing all exceptional measures were submitted to applicable National Regulatory Authorities in EU countries where required.
