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 aim of this Phase 3 continuation study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of voclosporin compared with placebo, when added to the standard of care treatment in lupus nephritis (LN), for an additional 24 months, following a treatment period of 52 weeks in the AURORA 1 (AUR-VCS-2016-01). All subjects will continue to receive background therapy of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and/or corticosteroids starting at the same dose as at the end of the AURORA 1 study. Subjects with LN, who have completed 52 weeks of treatment with study drug in the AURORA 1 study, will be eligible to enter AURORA 2. The long-term safety and tolerability of the drug combination will be assessed from its safety profile while demonstrating the continued ability to achieve and maintain long-term renal response.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Dose of voclosporin could be reduced in subjects with controlled urine protein creatine ratio (UPCR) if considered appropriate at the discretion of the investigator and in consultation with the Medical Monitor When clinically indicated, dose of oral corticosteroid could be adjusted or discontinued in consultation with the Medical Monitor.
    Background therapy
    mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) + oral corticosteroids

    End point title
    Adverse events, routine biochemical and hematological assessments [1]
    End point description
    This study evaluated the safety of continued treatment with voclosporin for up to three years. Voclosporin was well tolerated in the study with no new or unexpected safety signals observed. The overall profile of adverse events seen in Years 2 and 3 of treatment was similar to that seen in the first year of treatment (in AURORA 1); however, the frequency of adverse events reduced each year.

    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: Estimand for AEs is the proportion of subjects reporting AEs in the Safety Population when comparing voclosporin and placebo. Estimands for biochemical and hematological assessments are the mean absolute values and mean changes from AURORA 1 baseline in the Safety Population when comparing voclosporin and placebo.

    The model is based on a logistic regression with terms for treatment, baseline UPCR, biopsy class, MMF use at baseline and region. Subjects who withdrew from the study prior to the visit assessments and thus provide insufficient visit data were defined as non-responders.

    Renal flare as adjudicated by the Clinical Endpoints Committee (CEC)
    End point description
    A patient could experience a flare from the point they achieved a response (or recovery). Renal flares were judged according to the following criteria: • A reproducible increase to UPCR >1 mg/mg from a post-response baseline of <0.2 mg/mg or • an increase to UPCR >2 mg/mg from a post-response baseline between 0.2 to 1.0 mg/mg or • a doubling of UPCR for baseline values of UPCR >1 mg/mg

    Change from AURORA 1 baseline in urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR)
    End point description
    Participants analyzed included all subjects who were randomized treatment during AURORA 1 AND who consented to continue their treatment in AURORA 2. Baseline values were collected at the start of AURORA 1 but only for those subjects that continued in AURORA 2. Reductions in UPCR are indicative of better renal outcomes. The number of subjects analyzed may not be aligned with overall number analyzed due to early withdrawals from study and missed study visits.

    Change from AURORA 1 baseline in Safety of Estrogens in Lupus Erythematosus National Assessment - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SELENA-SLEDAI) score
    End point description
    Participants analyzed included all subjects who were randomized treatment during AURORA 1 AND who consented to continue their treatment in AURORA 2. Baseline values were collected at the start of AURORA 1 but only for those subjects that continued in AURORA 2. Assessment of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Disease Activity within the last 10 days. It scores 24 disease descriptors across 9 organ systems which are summed to a minimum of <2 (considered indicative of no activity) and maximum of 105 points. Scores are weighted and a score of 6 is considered clinically significant. Higher scores indicate worse disease activity. The number of subjects analyzed may not be aligned with overall number analyzed due to early withdrawals from study and missed study visits.
