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   43977   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7312   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.

    End point title
    Change in log-transformed observable focal onset seizure frequency from Baseline over the 12 week Maintenance Period
    End point description
    During the study, participants kept diaries to record daily seizure activity. Seizure frequency refers to 28-day adjusted frequency. Seizure frequency was based on investigator assessment of participants' reports of daily seizure type and frequency. Observable focal-onset seizures refer to Type IA1, IB, and IC (ILAE Classification of Epileptic Seizures, 1981). Based on ANCOVA on change in log-transformed, 28-day adjusted seizure frequency from Baseline with treatment group as the main factor, Baseline log-transformed seizure frequency as a continuous covariate, Baseline SV2A use (yes or no) and Region (Europe, Non-Europe) as categorical factors. The Full Analysis Set (FAS) consisted of all study participants in the RS who were administered at least 1 dose or a partial dose of IMP and had Baseline and at least 1 post-Baseline seizure frequency data during the 16-week Treatment Period.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    09 Mar 2018
    Protocol Amendment 1, dated 09 Mar 2018, provided the following key changes: The purpose of this substantial amendment was primarily to increase the potential for the study to be 1 of 2 adequate and well-controlled studies that supported registration. This required an increase in the sample size to allow for pairwise comparisons and the use of the 75% responder rate status as the primary variable for the European Medicines Agency (EMA) (CHMP/EWP/566/98 Rev.2/Corr, 2010). Per EMA guidance, the primary variable in add-on epilepsy studies should have dichotomized the data into responders/nonresponders, where responders were participants who obtained at least a certain predefined percentage reduction of seizure frequency. An improvement of >75% was regarded as clinically more meaningful than >50% and seemed feasible given the premise of greater efficacy of Padsevonil based upon nonclinical animal data and EP0069 results. Therefore, the 75% responder rate was selected as the primary variable, rather than the more commonly used 50% responder rate. Another important addition to the protocol was that the Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) could stop enrollment into a Padsevonil dose arm for safety and tolerability reasons and allocate remaining patients to remaining Padsevonil dose or placebo arms. This addition did not reflect a change in intent. Rather, the plan had been to describe this possibility in the Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) Charter, but it was included in the protocol to avoid disruption to the study via a subsequent amendment in the unlikely event that a dose arm was dropped from the study for safety/tolerability reasons.
    12 Oct 2018
    Protocol Amendment 2, dated 12 Oct 2018, provided the following key changes: The purpose of this substantial amendment was to clarify that the primary efficacy analysis was comparing each Padsevonil dose to placebo with Type I error controlled for all comparisons. Multiple Comparison Procedure-Modelling (MCP-Mod) analysis was removed since it would no longer contribute to the overall study conclusion and dose selection for future studies. Other changes included the following: • Updates to study contact information. • Minor refinements to the wording describing responder rate variables. • Correction of the maximum duration of exposure to PSL from 20 to 19 weeks. • Clarification of the rationale for the study to state that dose-response relationship was evaluated with respect to safety as well as efficacy. • Revised other efficacy variable, number of seizure-free days to percentage of seizure-free days. • Revised other efficacy variable, time to return to baseline observable (Type IA1+IB+IC) focal-onset seizure frequency to time to return to baseline 28-day observable seizure count. • Revision of designation of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), TEAEs leading to withdrawal, and SAEs from “safety variables” to “primary safety variables.” A heading was added for these primary variables. • Clarification of a Schedule of Assessments footnote that questionnaires should have been completed prior to other study procedures, when possible. Previously it was mandated that these be completed prior to other procedures. • Removal of efficiencies of the MCP-Mod model based design and analysis as 1 of the drivers for EP0091 dose selection. In addition, the rationale for selection of intermediate doses was revised due to the elimination of MCP-Mod analysis. •Revision of Inclusion Criterion 2 to account for the fact that use of legal representative/caregiver may not have been legally permitted in some countries.
    12 Oct 2018
    Continuation of Protocol Amendment 2 (1) • Modification of Inclusion Criterion 5 to facilitate the acceptance of ambulatory electroencephalograms (EEGs), which were used more frequently in some regions, to require (must versus should) consultation with the UCB Study Physician or representative when determining study participant eligibility based on eye-witness seizure report, home video documentation, or other proof, and to allow substitution of head computed tomography (CT) scan for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) if MRI was contraindicated. • Modification of Exclusion Criterion 1 to allow rescreening of study participants under certain circumstances. • Clarification of the description of the interpretation of echocardiograms − The original description stated that the echocardiograms would be interpreted at the sites by local cardiologists and then provided to a central reader where they would be interpreted. Given that all echocardiograms were to be centrally read and a report provided within 7 business days of receipt, in the absence of queries, there was no need for a local cardiologist. Therefore, the protocol was modified to say that it was only necessary that the local physician examine the echocardiograms for suitability for central reading and for determination if an expedited review by the central reader was required. It was also made explicit that the central reader was a cardiologist. • Clarification of the Titration Period Dosing Table 7-1 in the protocol, to indicate that this period consisted of Week 1, Week 2, and Week 3 (versus previous unclear designations of Day 1, Week 1 and Week 2). • Clarifications regarding administration of the Seizure Severity Global Item (SSG), Quality of Life Inventory in Epilepsy-31-P (QOLIE-31-P), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).
    12 Oct 2018
    Continuation of Protocol Amendment 2 (2) • Other modifications to the Statistics section (in addition to those related to the removal of MCP-Mod analysis), such as inclusion of information on handling of dropouts and missing data and further details about the determination of sample size.
