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   43850   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The main purpose of Period 1 of this study is to allow COMPASS to determine the optimal dose of psilocybin, either 10 mg or 25 mg. The intent of the primary efficacy analysis, which occurs during Period 2 of the study, is to demonstrate superiority of the optimal therapeutic dose of psilocybin (10 mg or 25 mg) versus the 1 mg psilocybin via the following objectives:

    The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of psilocybin (25 mg or 10 mg) compared to 1 mg, administered under supportive conditions to adult participants with TRD, in improving depressive symptoms, as assessed by the change in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score from Baseline. Baseline is defined as the assessment score obtained on Day -1. The primary timepoint is Week 3; this variable will be analysed for the change from Baseline to Weeks 1, 3, 6, and 12.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To assess the efficacy of psilocybin compared to 1 mg psilocybin on:
    - Proportion of participants with response defined as a ≥50% decrease in MADRS total score from Baseline to Week 3. This will also be assessed at Weeks 1, 6 and 12.
    - The proportion of participants who have a sustained response at Week 12. Sustained response is defined as the proportion of patients fulfilling response criteria at any visit up to and including Week 3, that also fulfils response criteria at all subsequent visits up to and including Week 12. Response is defined as ≥50% decrease in MADRS total score from Baseline.
    - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of psilocybin in participants with TRD based on adverse events (AEs), changes in vital signs, and suicidal ideation/behaviour (measured using the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale[C-SSRS]) score at all visits.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Participants meeting all the following inclusion criteria at Screening (V1) should be considered for admission into the study:

    1. Signed Informed Consent Form (ICF).
    2. 18 years of age or older at Screening (V1).
    3. At least moderate MDD (single or recurrent episode as informed by DSM-5; if single episode, duration of ≥ 3 months and ≤2 years) based on medical records, clinical assessment and documented completion of the version 7.0.2 MINI.
    4. HAM-D-17 (17-item) score ≥18 at Screening (V1) and at Baseline (V2).
    5. Failure to respond to an adequate dose and duration of 2, 3, or 4 pharmacological treatment for the current episode as determined through the MGH ATRQ and using the supplementary advice on additional antidepressants not included in MGH ATRQ (Appendix III). Augmentation with an add on treatment counts as a second treatment, provided it is approved for the adjunctive treatment of MDD in that country.
    6. McLean Screening Instrument for Borderline Personality Disorder <7 at Screening (V1).
    7. Not taking any antidepressants, mood stabilizers, or antipsychotics at the time of Screening Visit V1.
    8. Ability to complete all protocol required assessment tools without any assistance or alteration to the copyrighted assessments, and to comply with all study visits.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Participants meeting any of the following exclusion criteria at Screening (V1) will not be enrolled in the study:

    Psychiatric Exclusion Criteria:
    1. Current or past history of schizophrenia, depression with psychotic features, bipolar disorder, delusional disorder, paranoid personality disorder, schizoaffective disorder, borderline personality disorder, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or any serious psychiatric comorbidity as assessed by medical history and a structured clinical interview (version 7.0.2 MINI).
    2. Prior electroconvulsive therapy and/or ketamine for current episode.
    3. Current psychotherapy that will not remain stable for the duration of the study. Psychotherapy cannot be initiated within 21 days of baseline.
    4. Current (within the last year) alcohol or substance use disorder as informed by DSM 5 at Screening (V1).
    5.Significant suicide risk as defined by (1) suicidal ideation as endorsed on items 4 or 5 on the C-SSRS within the past year, at Screening or at Baseline, or; (2) prior suicidal attempts, or; (3) clinical assessment of significant suicidal risk during subject interview.
    6. Depression secondary to other severe medical conditions.
    7. Other personal circumstances and behaviour judged to be incompatible with establishment of rapport or safe exposure to psilocybin.
    8.Prior exposure to psilocybin and other psychedelics.

    General Medical Exclusion Criteria:
    9. Women who are pregnant, nursing, or planning a pregnancy. Participants who are sexually active must agree to use an acceptable contraceptive method throughout their participation in the study. Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at Screening (V1) and Baseline (V2).
    10. Cardiovascular conditions: recent stroke (<1 year from signing of ICF), recent myocardial infarction (<1 year from signing of ICF), hypertension (blood pressure >140/90 mmHg) or clinically significant arrhythmia within 1 year of signing the ICF.
    11. Uncontrolled insulin-dependent diabetes.
    12. Seizure disorder.
    13. Positive urine drug screen for illicit drugs or drugs of abuse at V1 and V2. Any positive urine drug test will be reviewed with participants to determine the pattern of use and eligibility will be determined at the investigator’s discretion in conjunction with the MM.
    14. Current enrolment in any investigational drug or device study or participation in such within 30 days of Screening (V1).
    15. Current enrolment in an interventional study for depression or participation in such within 30 days of Screening (V1).
    16. Abnormal and clinically significant results on the physical examination, vital signs, ECG, or laboratory tests at Screening (V1).
    17. Any other clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal or any other major concurrent illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the interpretation of the study results or constitute a health risk for the participant if he/she takes part in the study.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint is the change in MADRS total score from Baseline (Day -1) to 3 weeks post-psilocybin.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    3 Weeks post-psilocybin
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    The secondary endpoints are:
    • The proportion of participants with a response (defined as a ≥50% improvement in MADRS total score from Baseline) at Week 3 post-psilocybin.
    • The proportion of participants with remission (defined as a MADRS total score ≤10) at Week 3 post-psilocybin.
    • The proportion of participants who have a sustained response at Week 12. Sustained response is defined as the proportion of patients fulfilling response criteria at any visit up to and including Week 3, that also fulfils response criteria at all subsequent visits up to and including Week 12. Response is defined as ≥50% decrease in MADRS total score from Baseline.
    • Time to event measures: start antidepressant medication for any reason, start medication for continuing depressive symptoms, and relapse from a previously recovered state (clinical judgement, supported by the QIDS-SR-16). Participants who withdraw from the study will be censored from the time to event analysis.
