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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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 primary objective was to assess the treatment effect of LIK066 on hyperandrogenism at Day 15 in overweight and obese subjects with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
    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.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: 15 patients were enrolled into the LIK066 Treatment Arm; 14 of them were part of the PK analysis set; all 15 of them were included in the PD analysis set
    [2] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: PK analysis only performed in the LIK066 Treatment Arm

It • added text advising investigators to instruct the study subjects to watch for symptoms of ketoacidosis, hypoglycemia and hypotension • added risk of lower limb amputation • changed study treatment discontinuation criteria related to hypoglycemia and ketoacidosis • Changed stopping criteria related to hypoglycemia and ketoacidosis.
    29 Sep 2017
    Amendment 2 was issued to enable recruitment of the intended PCOS population with hyperandrogenism. The definition of hyperandrogenism was adjusted and the BMI cut off was removed. It included the following changes: • Biochemical hyperandrogenism was defined as free testosterone level that was approximately equal to or > 1.75× the ULN range of the assay used. • Overweight/obese subjects with BMI equal to or > 27 kg/m2, and stable weight ± 3 kg over previous 3 month (by history) were allowed to participate in the study. • The exclusion criterion for TSH was specified as, TSH levels > 10 uUI/ml and clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism. Subjects with sub clinical hypothyroidism need not be excluded. Subjects with well controlled on thyroid medication could be enrolled.
