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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of this two-part study was to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of multiple intra-articular (i.a.) injections of LNA043, in regenerating the articular surface in subjects at an early stage of osteoarthritis with cartilage lesions in the knee (Part A) and subjects at a more advanced stage of knee osteoarthritis K&L grade 2 or 3 (Part B).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    01 May 2017
    Amendment 01 was generated in response to request from the State Institute for Drug Control (SUKL) in Czech Republic during the CTA review, in order to add more specific definition of the primary efficacy endpoint and details on the blinding levels of the MRI assessments, as well as an update of the wording for the exclusion criterion 9 for more clarity.
    01 Jun 2017
    Amendment 02 is to introduce clarifications requested by health authorities at CTA review regarding the End of Trial definition and the corresponding activities. In adjustment to local practices, inclusion criterion n°5 is updated to allow arthroscopic confirmation of the symptomatic, single, partial thickness articular cartilage defect of one knee, grade II or IIIA according to the ICRS classification, localized to either the femoral condyles/femoral trochlea or to the patella, performed within 9 months before screening visit In order to improve clarity, exclusion criterion n°13 is updated to allow enrolment of bipolar lesions if the tibial lesion does not exceed ICRS grade 1, and for exclusion criterion n°16, definition is specified. Exclusion criteria n°17 and n°18 are updated regarding the requirement for imaging diagnostics no longer limited to 9 month. The restraints regarding prohibited medication are updated to dajust the time frame towards the dosing start, to reduce patient’s burden.
    01 Dec 2017
    Amendment 03 is to adjust the screening period and the eligibility criteria following input from investigators. Furthermore, the number of PK samples to be collected is lowered, as additional PK and safety information from the First-in-Human study has become available, Section 1.3 is updated accordingly. Also, clarification is added regarding the restriction of rescue medications during follow-up visits to prevent any bias for patient-related outcomes.
    01 Jul 2019
    Amendment 04 is to add a 52-week visit schedule for clinical and MRI evaluations
    01 Mar 2020
    Amendment 05 is to add a Part B to the study protocol with the aim of: (i) evaluating monthly dosing efficacy, safety and tolerability; (ii) exploring dose-dependence by testing multiple doses of 40 mg and 20 mg dose levels; (iii) broadening the population by including Kellgren & Lawrence (K&L) 2-3 patients, based on the positive results of the X2201 study and the positive IA of the current study; (iv) adding additional safety measures (e.g., post-dosing monitoring extended to 3 hours; more stringent stopping rules, with patients who experience any grade hypersensitivity reaction not to be re-dosed), following the Urgent Safety Measure (USM) implemented in August 2019.
    01 Jul 2020
    Amendment 06 is generated in response to the request from the Danish Medicines Agency (DKMA) to include monthly pregnancy testing, to match it with the duration of LNA043 pharmacodynamic effect. Additionally, a modification of the stopping rule related to acute allergic reactions is included, with the aim of extending safety monitoring, by adding criteria to pause the study should one (1) fatal or life-threatening event occur. Lastly, the assessment of the Benefit/Risk concluded the absence of additional risks related to COVID-19.
    01 Dec 2020
    Amendment 07 is generated to address the request from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to collect safety ECG monitoring (around Tmax) to provide information on whether a QT study would be required for the LNA043 program. Additionally, a modification of the radiologic selection criteria is introduced to better match the population expected to benefit from LNA043.

    Interruptions (globally)
    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    For several outcomes there was a loss in samples size, which may limit the interpretability of results. Due to some errors in calculations that require re- analysis, some p values will be updated and provided at a later time.
