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   43857   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To assess the long-term safety and tolerability of GIVINOSTAT in patients with DMD following core protocols program and with naïve GIVINOSTAT DMD subjects, i.e. subjects screened in study DSC/14/2357/48 who met:
    - all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria, and
    - never been randomized because the enrollment in the off-target group was completed.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To evaluate the effects of long-term administration of GIVINOSTAT on muscular function and strength;
    To evaluate the effects of long-term administration of GIVINOSTAT on respiratory function;
    To evaluate the impact on daily activities and quality of life following long-term administration of GIVINOSTAT.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Subjects must meet all the following inclusion criteria:
    1. Must have participated in one of the previous studies with GIVINOSTAT in DMD and have attended the End of Study Visit or
    must have been screened in study DSC/14/2357/48 and met: all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria, had a baseline vastus lateralis muscle fat fraction (VL MFF) assessed by MRS in the range ≤5% or >30%, i.e. included in “off-target” group, never been randomized because the enrollment in the off-target group was completed
    2.Aged ≥6 years
    3. Are able to give informed assent and/or consent in writing signed by the subject and/or parent/legal guardian (according to local regulations);
    4. Subjects must be willing to use adequate contraception:
    Contraceptive methods must since the previous GIVINOSTAT study through 3 months after the last dose of study drug, and include the following:
    oTrue abstinence (absence of any sexual intercourse), when in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g. calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
    oCondom with spermicide and the female partner must use an acceptable method of contraception, such as an oral, transdermal, injectable or implanted steroid-based contraceptive, or a diaphragm or a barrier method of contraception in conjunction with spermicidal jelly such as for example cervical cap with spermicide jelly.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Subjects presenting with any of the following criteria will not be included in the study:
    1. Use of any pharmacologic treatment, other than corticosteroids, that might have had an effect on muscle strength or function within 3 months prior to be enrolled in this study (e.g., growth hormone); Vitamin D, calcium, and any other supplements will be allowed;
    2. Use of any current investigational drug other than Givinostat;
    3. Have presence of other clinically significant disease, which, in the Investigator’s opinion, could adversely affect the safety of the subject, making it unlikely that the course of treatment or follow-up would be completed, or could impair the assessment of study results;
    4. Have a diagnosis of other uncontrolled neurological diseases or presence of relevant uncontrolled somatic disorders that are not related to DMD;
    5. Have platelets count, White Blood Cell and Hemoglobin at screening < Lower Limit of Normal (LLN) (for abnormal screening laboratory test results (<LLN), the platelets count, White Blood Cell and Hemoglobin will be repeated once; if the repeat test result is still <LLN, then exclusionary);
    6.Have Triglycerides > 300 mg/dL (3.42 mmol/L) in fasting condition at screening visit* (for abnormal screening laboratory test results (>300mg/dl), the triglycerides will be repeated once; if the repeat test result is still >300mg/dl, then exclusionary);
    7.Have inadequate renal function, as defined by serum Cystatin C >2 x the upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening visit*. If the value is >2 x ULN, the serum Cystatin C will be repeated once; if the repeated test result is still >2 x ULN, the subject should be excluded);
    8. Have heart failure (New York Heart Association Class III or IV);
    9. Have a current liver disease or impairment, including but not limited to an elevated total bilirubin(i.e. > 1.5 x ULN), unless secondary to Gilbert disease or pattern consistent with Gilbert's;
    10. Have a baseline QTcF >450 msec, (as the mean of 3 consecutive readings 5 minutes apart) or history of additional risk factors for torsades de pointes (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia, or family history of long QT syndrome);
    11. Have a psychiatric illness/social situations rendering the potential subject unable to understand and comply with the muscle function tests and/or with the study protocol procedures;
    12. Have any hypersensitivity to the components of study medication;
    13. Have a sorbitol intolerance or sorbitol malabsorption or have the hereditary form of fructose intolerance.
