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   43861   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 Eligible participants with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease (CD) were randomized at 209 sites in 42 countries. The study consisted of a 12-week double-blind induction treatment period, and a 12-week extended treatment period for participants who did not achieve clinical response at the end of the induction treatment period.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 In Part 1 participants were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive upadacitinib 45 mg or placebo, with randomization stratified by Baseline corticosteroid use (yes or no), endoscopic disease severity (Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's disease [SES-CD] < 15 and ≥ 15), and the number of previously failed biologic therapies (0, 1, and >1).

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: Participants who were clinical non-responders at the end of the induction period (Week 12) could enter Part 2.

    Endoscopic Disease Severity
    Endoscopic disease severity was scored using the Simplified Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD). The SES-CD evaluates 4 endoscopic variables (ulcer size, ulcerated surface, affected surface, and narrowing, each on a scale from 0 (none) to 3 (worst) in 5 segments assessed during ileocolonoscopy (ileum, right colon, transverse colon, sigmoid and left colon, and rectum). The total score is the sum of the 4 endoscopic variable scores and ranges from 0 to 56, where higher scores indicate more severe disease.

    Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Score
    The Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) is a composite instrument that includes participant symptoms evaluated over 7 days (abdominal pain, stool frequency and general well-being), as well as physical and laboratory findings. These items are scored individually, weighted, and do not contribute equally to the overall score. The CDAI is derived from summing up the weighted individual scores of eight items. CDAI approximately ranges from 0 to 600 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. Data were available for 176 subjects in the Placebo arm and 349 subjects in the Upadacitinib arm.

    Average Daily Abdominal Pain Score
    Participants were asked to rate their abdominal pain on a daily basis in an electronic diary using the following scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. The average daily abdominal pain score was calculated using the 4-7 most recent useable days of patient-report outcomes (i.e., excluding days with missing entries or associated with endoscopy procedures) out of the last 14 days prior to the Baseline visit.

    		 Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission Per Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) at Week 12
    End point description
    The co-primary endpoint for European Union (EU)/European Medicines Agency (EMA) regulatory purposes was clinical remission based on two patient reported outcomes, average daily SF and average daily APS. Clinical remission per PROs was defined as average daily very soft or liquid SF ≤ 2.8 and average daily APS ≤ 1.0 and neither worse than Baseline. Participants recorded APS and very soft or liquid SF daily in an electronic diary. Abdominal pain was rated on a scale from 0 (none) to 3 (severe). The average daily very soft or liquid SF and APS were calculated using the 4-7 most recent useable days of patient-report outcomes (i.e., excluding days with missing entries or associated with endoscopy procedures) out of the last 14 days prior to the Week 12 visit. Participants with missing data or who withdrew prior to Week 12 were counted as non-responders (non-responder imputation); missing data due to COVID-19 infection or logistical restriction were handled by multiple imputation.

    Notes
    [3] - The overall type I error rate of the co-primary and key secondary endpoints were strongly controlled using a fixed sequence multiple-testing procedure as well as a Holm procedure. The testing utilized the sequence of hypothesis testing for the co-primary endpoints using two-sided α of 0.05 followed by a set of key secondary endpoints, defined separately for United States (US)/Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and EU/EMA regulatory purposes.

    End point description
    The co-primary endpoint for United States (US)/Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory purposes was clinical remission based on CDAI at Week 12. CDAI is a composite instrument that includes participant symptoms evaluated over 7 days (abdominal pain, stool frequency and general well-being), as well as presence of complications (arthritis/arthralgia, iritis/uveitis, erythema nodosum/pyoderma gangrenosum/aphthous stomatitis, anal fissure/fistula/abscess, other fistula, and fever), the use of antidiarrheal medicines, presence of an abdominal mass, hematocrit, and body weight. The CDAI is derived from summing up the weighted individual scores of eight items and ranges approximately from 0 to 600 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. Clinical remission is defined as a CDAI score less than 150. Non-responder imputation incorporating multiple imputation to handle missing data due to COVID-19 infection or logistical restriction was used in the analysis.

    		 Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Response at Week 12
    End point description
    Endoscopic response at Week 12 was a co-primary endpoint for both the US/FDA and EU/EMA regulatory purposes. Endoscopic response was defined as greater than 50% decrease in Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) from Baseline of the induction study (or for participants with an SES-CD of 4 at Baseline, at least a 2-point reduction from Baseline), as scored by independent external and blinded central readers. The SES-CD evaluates 4 endoscopic variables (ulcer size, ulcerated surface, affected surface, and narrowing, each on a scale from 0 (none) to 3 in 5 segments assessed during ileocolonoscopy (ileum, right colon, transverse colon, sigmoid and left colon, and rectum). The total score is the sum of the 4 endoscopic variable scores and ranges from 0 to 56, where higher scores indicate more severe disease. Non-responder imputation incorporating multiple imputation to handle missing data due to COVID-19 infection or logistical restriction was used in the analysis.

    		 Change From Baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue (FACIT-Fatigue) at Week 12
    End point description
    The FACIT-Fatigue questionnaire is a self-administered patient questionnaire that consists of 13 questions designed to measure the degree of fatigue experienced by participants in the previous 7 days, including physical fatigue (e.g., I feel tired), functional fatigue (e.g., trouble finishing things), emotional fatigue (e.g., frustration), and social consequences of fatigue (e.g., limits social activity). Participants respond to the questions on a scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). The FACIT-Fatigue score is computed by summing the item scores, after reversing those items that are worded in the negative direction. The FACIT-Fatigue score ranges from 0 to 52, where higher scores represent less fatigue. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement. Missing data were handled using a mixed-effect model with repeated measurements (MMRM).

    End point title
    		 Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission Per CDAI at Week 4
    End point description
    CDAI is a composite instrument that includes participant symptoms evaluated over 7 days (abdominal pain, stool frequency and general well-being), as well as presence of complications (arthritis/arthralgia, iritis/uveitis, erythema nodosum/pyoderma gangrenosum/aphthous stomatitis, anal fissure/fistula/abscess, other fistula, and fever), the use of antidiarrheal medicines, presence of an abdominal mass, hematocrit, and body weight. The CDAI is derived from summing up the weighted individual scores of eight items and ranges from approximately 0 to 600 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. Clinical remission is defined as CDAI score less than 150. Non-responder imputation incorporating multiple imputation to handle missing data due to COVID-19 infection or logistical restriction was used in the analysis.
