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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of a single (first) dose of 3 fixed doses of intranasal esketamine (28 mg, 56 mg, and 84 mg) compared with psychoactive placebo (oral midazolam) in rapidly reducing the symptoms of MDD, including suicidal ideation, in subjects 12 to <18 years of age who are assessed to be at imminent risk for suicide. Efficacy will be assessed by the change from baseline in Children’s Depression Rating Scale, Revised (CDRS-R) total score at 24 hours post first dose (Day 2).
    El objetivo principal es evaluar la eficacia de una (primera) de tres dosis fijas de esketamina intranasal (28 mg, 56 mg y 84 mg) en comparación con placebo psicoactivo (midazolam oral) para la reducción rápida de los síntomas del TDM, incluida la ideación suicida, en sujetos de 12 a menos de 18 años que se consideran en riesgo inminente de suicidio. La eficacia se valorará mediante la variación de la puntuación total de la Escala de valoración de la depresión infantil revisada (CDRS-S) con respecto al momento basal y 24 horas después de la primera dosis (día 2).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    -To evaluate the dose response of intranasal esketamine compared with psychoactive placebo in reducing the symptoms of MDD, including suicidal ideation, as assessed by the change from baseline in CDRS-R total score at 24 hours post first dose (Day 2) and at Day 25.
    -To evaluate the efficacy of single and repeated doses of intranasal esketamine compared with psychoactive placebo in reducing symptoms of suicidal ideation, as assessed by the Clinical Global Impression of Severity of Suicidality, revised version (CGI-SS-R) from the Suicide Ideation and Behavior Assessment Tool (SIBAT) at 4 hours and 24 hours post first dose and through the end of the double-blind treatment phase (Day 25).
    -To evaluate the efficacy of single and repeated doses of intranasal esketamine compared with psychoactive placebo in reducing symptoms of MDD
    -For more information on secondary objectives see Protocol section 2.1.1
    -Evaluar la respuesta a la dosis de esketamina intranasal, en comparación con un placebo psicoactivo, en la reducción de los síntomas del TDM, incluida la ideación suicida, valorada por la variación con respecto al valor basal de la puntuación total CDRS-R 24 horas después de la primera dosis (día 2) y el día 25.
    -Evaluar la eficacia de una dosis única y de dosis repetidas de esketamina intranasal, en comparación con placebo psicoactivo, en la reducción de los síntomas de ideación suicida, valorada por la Impresión clínica global de la gravedad de las tendencias suicidas, versión revisada (CGI-SS-R), del Instrumento de evaluación de la ideación y la conducta suicidas (SIBAT) a las 4 y 24 horas después de la primera dosis y hasta el final de la fase de tratamiento doble ciego (día 25).
    -Evaluar la eficacia de una dosis única y de dosis repetidas de esketamina intranasal, en comparación con un placebo psicoactivo, en la reducción de los síntomas del TDM. Ver sección del Protocolo 2.1.1

    3. Subject must have current suicidal thinking with intent at the time of screening, confirmed by “Yes” responses to both MINI-KID Question B3 (Think about hurting yourself with the possibility that you might die. Or did you think about killing yourself?) AND Question B10 (Expect to go through with a plan to kill yourself?).
    4. In the physician’s opinion, acute psychiatric hospitalization is clinically warranted due to subject’s imminent risk of suicide.
    5. Subject must have a CDRS-R total score of ≥ 58 predose on Day 1.
    6. As part of standard of care treatment, subject must agree to be hospitalized voluntarily for a recommended period of 5 days after randomization (may be shorter or longer if clinically warranted in the investigator’s opinion).
    7. As part of the newly initiated or optimized standard of care treatment, subject must agree to take one of the prescribed non-investigational antidepressants medications (fluoxetine, escitalopram, sertraline) at least during the double-blind treatment phase (Day 25).
    8. As part of standard of care treatment, subject must agree to participate in a specific psychological intervention (individual cognitive behavioral therapy [CBT], interpersonal therapy, family therapy or psychodynamic psychotherapy) at least through the initial 8-week post-treatment follow-up period (Day 81).
    9. Subject is comfortable with self-administration of intranasal medication and able to follow instructions provided.
    10. Subject must be medically stable on the basis of physical examination, medical history, vital signs, and 12-lead ECG performed at screening.

This determination must be recorded in the subject's source documents and initialed by the investigator.
    11. Subject must be medically stable on the basis of clinical laboratory tests performed by the local laboratory at screening. If the results of the serum chemistry panel, hematology, or urinalysis are outside the normal reference ranges, the subject may be included only if the investigator judges the abnormalities or deviations from normal to be not clinically significant. This determination must be recorded in the subject's source documents and initialed by the investigator.
    12. During the double-blind treatment phase and for at least 6 weeks after the last dose of study drug, contraception is required. Sexual abstinence is strongly recommended; however heterosexually active female subjects must practice a highly effective method of contraception (failure rate of <1% per year when used consistently and correctly).
    13. A female subject of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening, baseline, and end of double-blind phase.

    16. Subject’s parent (or legally acceptable representative) must sign a separate informed consent form if he or she agrees to provide an optional DNA sample for research (where local regulations permit). Refusal to give consent for the optional DNA research sample does not exclude a subject from participation in the study.

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    The study investigator must ensure the subject is appropriately transitioned and/or followed for any additional care required. Subjects should continue with their standard of care after the end of the study per investigator's or the treating physician's clinical judgement. This should be planned for in advance of each patient's completion of the study and based on their individual clinical needs.
    El investigador del estudio debe asegurarse que el sujeto está apropiadamente transferido o en seguimiento. A jucio del investigador o de su médico habitual los sujetos deben continuar con su pauta de tratamiento habitual después de la finalización del estudio. Esto debe ser planificado con antelación a cada finalización del estudio de cada paciente y basado en sus necesidades clínicas individuales.
