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   44335   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 Participants who completed feeder study (AZES (NCT02245737)) were enrolled in this study.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 Participants who were randomized in Study AZES to either 20 mg or 50 mg of lanabecestat continued on the treatment allocation from the feeder study. Participants randomized to placebo in Study AZES were randomized in a blinded fashion, 1:1 ratio, to either lanabecestat 20 mg or 50 mg daily (QD), administered orally.

    		 Change From Baseline Analysis on the 13-item Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog13) [1]
    End point description
    ADAS-Cog13 is a psychometric instrument that evaluates word recall, ability to follow commands, constructional praxis, naming, ideational praxis, orientation, word recognition, memory, comprehension of spoken language, word-finding, and language ability, with a measure of delayed word recall and concentration/ distractibility. The total score of the 13-item scale ranges from 0 to 85, with an increase in score indicating cognitive worsening. Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with factors for treatment, visit, treatment*visit, baseline efficacy score, baseline efficacy score-by-visit interaction, disease status at baseline, APOE4 (apolipoprotein E4) status, AChEI (acetylcholinesterase inhibitor) use at baseline, age at baseline, and pooled country. Analysis Population Description (APD): All AZFD participants who received at least one dose of study drug and have baseline and at least one post-baseline data for ADAS-Cog13 measure.

    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: Because the feeder study AZES was stopped for futility, the original primary efficacy analysis (Delayed Start analysis) was replaced with MMRM analysis across AZES and AZFD. No comparisons between treatment groups were made.

    		 Change From Baseline in Delayed Start Analysis on the Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ) Score
    End point description
    FAQ is a 10-item, caregiver-questionnaire and was administered to the study partner and asked to rate the participant's ability to perform a variety of activities ranging from writing checks, assembling tax records, shopping, playing games, food preparation, traveling, keeping appointments, traveling out of neighborhood, keeping track of current events and understanding media. FAQ total score was calculated by adding the scores from each of the 10 items. Each activity is rated on a scale from 0 to 3 (Never did and would have difficulty now =1; Never did but could do now =0; Normal =0; Has difficulty but does by self =1; Requires assistance =2; Dependent =3). FAQ scale is 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating greater impairment. LS Mean was determined by MMRM. APD: All AZFD participants who received at least one dose of study drug and have baseline and at least one post-baseline data for FAQ score.

    		 Change From Baseline in Delayed Start Analysis on the Integrated Alzheimer's Disease Rating Scale (iADRS) Score
    End point description
    The iADRS is a composite that measures both cognition and function. The iADRS comprises scores form the ADAS- Cog and the ADCS-iADL. The iADRS is calculated as a linear combination of the total scores of the ADAS-Cog13 (score range 0 to 85 with higher scores reflecting worse performance) and the ADCS-iADL (score range from 0-59 with higher scores reflecting better performance). The iADRS score ranges from 0 to 144 with with higher scores indicating greater impairment. LS Mean was determined by MMRM with factors for treatment, visit, treatment*visit, baseline efficacy score, baseline efficacy score-by-visit interaction, disease status at baseline, APOE4 status, AChEI use at baseline, age at baseline, and pooled country. APD: All AZFD participants who received at least one dose of study drug and have baseline and at least one post-baseline data for iADRS.

    		 Change From Baseline in Delayed Start Analysis on the Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE)
    End point description
    The MMSE is an instrument used to assess a participant's cognitive function. The MMSE assesses orientation to time and place, immediate and delayed recall of words, attention and calculation, language (naming, comprehension and repetition), and spatial ability (copying a figure). The range for MMSE total Score is 0 to 30, with a higher score indicating better cognitive performance. LS Mean was determined by MMRM methodology with factors for treatment, visit, treatment*visit, baseline efficacy score, baseline efficacy score-by-visit interaction, disease status at baseline, APOE4 status, AChEI use at baseline, age at baseline, and pooled country. APD: All AZFD participants who received at least one dose of study drug and have baseline and at least one post-baseline data for MMSE.

    		 Delayed Start Analysis on the ADAS-Cog13
    End point description
    ADAS-Cog13 (13-item version of ADAS Cog) is a psychometric instrument that evaluates word recall, ability to follow commands, constructional praxis, naming, ideational praxis, orientation, word recognition, memory, comprehension of spoken language, word-finding, and language ability, with a measure of delayed word recall and concentration/ distractibility. The total score of the 13-item scale ranges from 0 to 85, with an increase in score indicating cognitive worsening. Least Squares (LS) mean was determined by mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) model with factors for treatment, visit, treatment*visit, baseline efficacy score, baseline efficacy score-by-visit interaction, disease status at baseline, APOE4 (apolipoprotein E4) status, AChEI (acetylcholinesterase inhibitor) use at baseline, age at baseline, and pooled country. APD: All AZFD participants who received at least one dose of study drug and have baseline and at least one post-baseline data for ADAS-Cog13 measure.

    Limitations and caveats
    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    An independent assessment concluded the trial was not likely to meet the primary endpoint upon completion and therefore, trial stopped for futility. Because of this futility, the originally planned delayed-start analysis was not performed.
