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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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
    To evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab administered every 2 weeks (Q2W) and every 4 weeks (Q4W) versus placebo after 24 weeks of double-blind (DB) treatment on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in subjects with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) 8 to 17 years of age on optimal stable daily dose of statin therapy ± other lipid modifying therapies (LMTs) or a stable dose of non-statin LMTs in case of intolerance to statins.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted by investigators experienced in the treatment of paediatric patients. The parent(s) or guardian(s) as well as the children were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time. In addition to the consent form for the parent(s)/guardian(s), an assent form in child-appropriate language was provided and explained to the child. Repeated invasive procedures were minimised. The number of blood samples as well as the amount of blood drawn were adjusted according to age and weight. A topical anesthesia may have been used to minimise distress and discomfort.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Study was conducted at 43 active sites in 24 countries. A total of 203 subjects were screened between 31-May-2018 and 31-Jul-2020, of whom 50 were screen failures. Screen failures were mainly due to exclusion criteria met. A total of 153 subjects were randomised with a 2:1 ratio to receive study treatment (alirocumab: placebo).

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Randomisation was stratified according to previous participation (yes or no) in the Phase 2 DFI14223 (EudraCT number: 2015-003766-85) study and Baseline body weight (BW) (less than [<] 50 kilograms (kg) or greater than or equal to [>=] 50 kg).

    Adjusted least square (LS) means and standard errors (SE) were obtained from mixed-effect model with repeated measures (MMRM) model. All post-baseline data available up to Week 24 were used and missing data were accounted for by the MMRM model. MMRM model was run on subjects with a Baseline value and a post-baseline value for at least one timepoint used in the model. Analysis was performed on ITT population which included all randomised subjects who were analysed according to the treatment group allocated by randomisation. Here, number of subjects analysed = subjects with available data for this endpoint.

    Adjusted LS means and SE were obtained from MMRM model. All post-baseline on-treatment data available up to Week 12 and Week 24 were used for the MMRM model, i.e., for Q2W data: from 1st IMP injection up to last IMP injection + 21 days and for Q4W data: from 1st IMP injection up to last IMP injection + 35 days for who stopped IMP before switch to Q2W regimen, + 21 days otherwise. MMRM model was run on subjects with a Baseline value and at one on-treatment post-baseline value for a timepoint used in the model. Analysis was performed on mITT population. Here, number of subjects analysed = subjects with available data for this endpoint.

    Change From Baseline in Cogstate Battery Test - Overall Composite Score at Weeks 24, 68 and 104
    End point description
    Cogstate battery test (cognitive testing system) consisted of detection test (DET), identification test (IDN), one card learning test (OCL) and Groton maze learning test (GML) to assess processing speed, attention, visual learning and executive functioning, respectively. For each test, Z-scores were computed based on subject's age at Baseline and Weeks 24, 68 and 104. Composite score: mean of Z-scores equally weighted, provided that at least 3 of 4 tests were available and if all of these domains were covered as: attention, through either DET or IDN, visual learning, through OCL and executive function, through GML. There is not minimum/maximum since values were reported as z-score but z-score of 0 means result equals to mean with negative numbers indicating values lower than mean and positive values higher. Positive change in z-score = improvement in cognition (i.e., better outcome) and negative change in z-score = worsening in cognition (i.e., worse outcome). n = subjects with data.

    ADA samples: analysed using validated non-quantitative, titer-based bridging immunoassay. Number of subjects with positive (+ve) ADA during 24-week treatment period is reported. Treatment-emergent positive ADA response was defined as 1) subjects with no ADA +ve response at Baseline but with any +ve response in post-baseline period or 2) subjects with a +ve ADA response at Baseline and at least a 4- fold increase in titer in the post-baseline period. Persistent +ve response: TE ADA +ve response detected in at least 2 consecutive post-baseline samples separated by at least a 12-week period. Persistent +ve response was only analysed for subjects with +ve TE ADA response. ADA population: all randomised and treated (who actually received at least 1 dose/part of dose of IMP) subjects with available ADA sample at Baseline (Week 0) and at least 1 non-missing ADA sample post first IMP injection and up to Week 24.early termination. 'n'= subject with data and '9999' = no subjects were evaluable.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    02 Jan 2019
    The following changes were done: - Added Q4W efficacy evaluation in primary objectives. - Updated DB treatment period with dosing regimen of Q4W (alirocumab 150 mg and 300 mg; n~75 subjects) and number of enrolled subjects in Q2W dosing regimen would be administered study treatment (alirocumab 40 mg and 75 mg was changed to approximately half; n~75). - Description of Q4W dosing regimen and information on maintaining the blind was added for subjects in Q4W dosing regimen to indicate administration of alirocumab every 4 weeks during first 12 weeks and then after Week 12 administration of alirocumab Q4W alternating with placebo Q4W in order to maintain blind at time of possible dose-adjustment. - Dose-adjustment information at Week 24 and from Week 32 was added for subjects enrolled Q4W dosing regimen. - Added 1 mL of alirocumab 150 mg/mL solution for 150 mg dose. - Information of Q4W dose used added: alirocumab 150 mg Q4W for BW <50 kg and 300 mg Q4W for BW >=50 kg. - Revised statistical analysis: sample size determination and addition of alirocumab Q4W and placebo Q4W to treatment groups to be analysed. - Described sample size calculations and considerations for Q2W and Q4W dosing regimens. - Added duration of exposure description for Q4W dosing regimen. - Revised and described handling of multiplicity. - Graphical study design for Q4W dosing regimen was added as Flow chart. - Added clinical information of the additional cohort (Cohort 4) conducted with Q4W dosing regimen in the DFI14223 that support the evaluation of the Q4W dosing regimen in EFC14643 study. - Corrected Q2W dose-adjustment according to BW as per Investigator’s judgment. - Added information on fact that from total number of 150 subjects, half of those would enrolled in each dosing regimen. - Minor editorial revisions were done. - Clarified that all countries were allowed to perform monthly urine pregnancy tests, in keeping with clinical trial facilitation guidelines.
    06 Jan 2021
    The following changes were done: - Updated to clarify that Investigator was able to adjust dose of alirocumab, for increasing the efficacy or purpose of subject safety. - Revised in order to specify analysing each of two randomised dosing regimen cohorts separately (use of the contemporaneously randomised placebo group for each dosing regimen cohort (Q2W, Q4W) instead of combined placebo group). - Revised the comparisons and of statistical models (a separate model would be run for each dosing regimen cohort). - To be consistent with two-sided test with significance level of 2.5%, 97.5% CI would be computed instead of 95% CI for primary and secondary efficacy endpoints. - Revised treatment groups to be displayed in safety result summaries: by treatment groups within each dosing regimen cohort; and by treatment group regardless of dosing regimen cohorts (pooled across cohorts). - Added details to clarify two-step analysis process at the completion of double-blind treatment period and whole study, respectively. - Updated IRT listings. - Changed the description of process for the management of complementary source documents. - Update added for clarity of multiplicity. - Added the definition of the treatment period for the Q4W dosing regimen cohort. - Revised the treatment groups to be displayed in accordance with safety summaries. - Defined & clarified two-step analysis. - Included the possibility to perform remote monitoring in the context of regional or national emergency such as the current coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. - Added the dosing regimen cohort and treatment-by-dosing regimen cohort effects in the statistical model. - The use of the multiple imputations process was removed. - Added contingency measures for a regional or national emergency that can be declared by a governmental agency such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. - Minor grammatical & editorial revisions. - Added word “cohort” at relevant places.
