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   43858   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 trial was to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of aripiprazole flexibly dosed in the treatment of serious behavioral problems in children and adolescents with a diagnosis of autistic disorder.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. The rights, safety, and well-being of the study patients were the most important consideration and prevailed over the interests of science and society.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    A total of 353 patients (109 de novo & 244 (placebo 70 + aripiprazole 174) rollover patients) were enrolled. Of 109 de novo patients, 23 had baseline failures & only 86 entered the treatment phase. Totally 330 patients ( 86 de novo + 70 placebo + 174 aripiprazole) entered the treatment (single oral dose of Aripiprazole [2 to 15 mg/day] tablet)

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    De novo patients had screening Phase of up to 42 days consisting of visit 1 (screening), visit 1a (washout period & interim screening) and visit 2 (baseline). Rollover patients had screening phase at visit 2 (screening & baseline, ). For rollover patients, screening and procedures were not repeated at visit 1 and 1a.

    Safety and tolerability by assessment of the number of adverse events following oral teatment of Aripiprazole [1]
    End point description
    To assess the safety and tolerability of oral treatment of Aripiprazole. Safety outcome measures included the incidence of death, serious adverse events (SAEs), treatment-emergent AEs and AEs leading to discontinuation. An AE is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the deterioration of a preexisting medical condition following or during exposure to a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered causally related to the product. Safety and tolerability were assessed by vital sign measurements; body weight/BMI; ECGs; clinical laboratory evaluations; physical examinations; adverse events; and treatment discontinuations.

    The CGI rating scale was used to evaluate participant's improvement over time. A baseline, CGI-s assessment was performed to rate the severity of the participant's condition on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (no symptoms) to 7 ( very severe symptoms). At subsequent visits, the participant’s improvement relative to the symptoms at baseline was assessed on a 7-point CGI-Improvement (CGI-I) scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Since, the target symptoms for the medication was specifically for irritability, the CGI focused specifically on severity of irritability secondary to autistic disorder.

    The CY-BOCS, a 10-item clinician-rated scale designed to measure the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms in participants below the age of 18. The CY-BOCS contains 5 items pertaining to obsessions (which were not used in this trial) and 5 items pertaining to compulsions, which rated each symptom domain in terms of time spent, interference with functioning, distress, resistance, and control. Each item was rated on a 5-point scale, from 0 (no symptoms or minimum severity) to 4 (extreme symptoms or maximum severity). A negative change score signifies improvement. Administration was modified for the purposes of this trial to allow for assessment based on an interview with the participant’s parent or guardian. In this study, only compulsions were assessed due to communication difficulties in this patient population.

    Mean change from baseline in the Pediatric Quality of Life Questionnaire (PedsQL)
    End point description
    The PedsQL is a health-related quality-of-life instrument developed and validated for use with children and adolescents. The primary analysis was the combined scales total across the age groups (child age 5 - 7, child age 8 - 12, and teen age 13 - 18), with a secondary analysis for separate age groups (child age 5 - 7, child 8 - 12 and teen age 13 - 18) and each separate scale (emotional functioning (5 items), social functioning (5 items) and cognitive functioning (6 items) were the scales used in PedsQL. The instructions asked the parent how much of a problem each item had occurred during the past 1 month. A 5-point response scale was used to rate each item (0 = never a problem, 4 = almost always a problem). Items were reverse-scored and linearly transformed to a 0 to 100 scale (0 = 100, 1 = 75, 2 = 50, 3 = 25, and 4 = 0), so that higher scores indicated better health-related quality of life.
