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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 Participants were stratified by weight group (≥40 to <60 kg and ≥60 to <100 kg) and then randomized in a 2:1 ratio to 2 treatment groups. This is an ongoing study and data presented are results from 10-week Randomized Treatment Period and data from the Extension Period through data cutoff date at 02 February 2021 (LSLV at Day 365).

    FACIT-fatigue subscale is a 13-item questionnaire that assesses self-reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function over the preceding 7 days; total scores range from 0 to 52 with higher score indicating better health-related quality of life. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing value prior to the first dose of study drug. Full analysis set included all participants who had signed informed consent, were randomized, received at least 1 dose of ravulizumab, and were not excluded from analysis. Here, Number of Participants Analyzed signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects exposed to this adverse event is less than the total number of subjects exposed to this adverse event. These numbers are expected to be equal.
    Justification: The Adverse event is gender specific. Hence, the number of participants at risk are female participants only.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    01 Aug 2018
    • Removed free hemoglobin testing • Added restriction on ova donation for female subjects.
    20 Sep 2018
    • Modified the criteria for the assessment of causality of AEs by the Investigator • Added data collection for the documentation of medication errors occurring with the use of ravulizumab on-body delivery system (OBDS) as adverse device effect (ADEs).
    17 May 2019
    • Removed 3 in-clinic study visits for participants in the ravulizumab SC treatment group during the Randomized Treatment Period and replaced with self-administration of ravulizumab SC by the participant in the home setting to reduce the participants burden • Provided additional information required by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) guidelines for investigational devices • Decreased length of time on eculizumab prior to study entry from 6 months to 3 months • Decreased the period in which participant may have experienced LDH values > 2 × upper limit of normal (ULN) from 6 months to 3 months • Clarified that the quality of life (QoL) instruments will be administered and recorded on paper rather than using an e-diary.
    19 Nov 2019
    • Increased the total study treatment duration to up to 3.5 years (182 weeks) • Revised the definition for the PK analysis set based on an assessment of compliance with the dosing and PK sampling windows specified in the Schedule of Activities and on PK simulations conducted to confirm permitted dosing and sampling windows • Clarified the timing of doses and PK/PD sample collection after Day 1 • Updated definitions of overdose for ravulizumab administered via IV infusion and via the ravulizumab OBDS • Clarified the definition of ADE.

    Interruptions (globally)
    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Efficacy data are reported up to SC Day 351 and safety data up to 1 year data cut (LSLV Day 365). To ensure quality of results, all 7 participants from a noncompliant site were excluded from all analysis sets due to source documentation deviations.
