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   43886   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7296   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 palovarotene in decreasing heterotopic ossification (HO) in adult and pediatric participants with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) as assessed by low-dose, whole body computed tomography (WBCT), excluding head, as compared to untreated participants from Clementia’s FOP natural history study (Study PVO-1A-001). To evaluate the safety of palovarotene in adult and pediatric participants with FOP.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki, inclusive of any subsequent amendment(s), and that are consistent with the International Council for Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice (E6), EU Directive 2001/20/EC, United States Food and Drug Administration Code of Federal Regulations, and other applicable local regulatory requirements, which ever affords the greater participant protection.

    This Phase 3, open-label study was conducted in adult and pediatric participants with FOP at 16 centers in 11 countries (Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Italy, Japan, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the US). Two other sites in Germany and Netherland were envisaged as participating countries but did not recruit any participants.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    This study included 2 parts: Part A, the main part, and Part B, the 24-month extension. A total of 107 participants were enrolled and treated in this study. Data from participants in PVO-1A-001 were used as an external control for only primary endpoint of this study.
