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 lenabasum 20 mg twice per day (BID) compared to placebo in the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) by assessing the rate of pulmonary exacerbations (PEx) using this study's primary definition of new PEx (the physician diagnosis of PEx, treatment with new oral, intravenous, or inhaled antibiotic(s) starting >28 days after completion of the last course of antibiotics for a prior PEx, and met at least 4 of 12 Fuch’s criteria).
    Protection of trial subjects
    Oversight of subject safety in this trial was provided by a data monitoring committee (DMC) subcommittee of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Therapeutics Data Safety Monitoring Board, an independent group of CF experts that was to advise the Sponsor. The primary responsibilities of the DMC were to: 1) periodically review and evaluate the accumulated study data for participant safety, study conduct and progress, and, when appropriate, efficacy; and 2) make recommendations to the Sponsor concerning the continuation, modification, or termination of the trial.
    Background therapy
    Each patient was maintained on all his/her baseline medications for CF from screening through Visit 9, unless the investigator or treating physician judged a change in therapy was needed to provide best medical care for the patient.
    Evidence for comparator
    This was a placebo-controlled trial. All patients in the trial maintained their previous CF medication in addition to randomised study medication.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period is not equal to the worldwide number of subjects enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The numbers of patients in the baseline period includes a total of 425 randomised and treated patients. Additional groups appearing for the baseline period were subgroups of this population according to age <18 or >= 18 years. Also, patients enrolled but not treated were not included.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Dec 2017
    Reason for change: requested by FDA Key changes: Endpoints - Order of endpoints changed so that pulmonary exacerbation (PEx) rate was made primary endpoint (instead of secondary endpoint), and time to first exacerbation was demoted to a secondary endpoint. Moreover, for primary endpoint of PEx, the event had to meet 4/12 symptoms from Fuch’s criteria, in presence of antibiotic usage for respiratory signs and symptoms. Sample size - Sample size changed from 315 randomized subjects to 415 randomized subjects, because of change in primary endpoint. Treatment discontinuation - Clarified that treatment discontinuation not the same as withdrawal from the study, and further details around data collection and reporting added for treatment discontinuations. Screening: clarified that rescreening was permitted.
    14 Jun 2018
    Reason for change: clarifications by sponsor; request of some health authorities Key changes: Potential risk - convulsions or seizures added. Subjects with a history of any seizure within the last 2 years were excluded to mitigate a potential risk of seizures identified in animal studies. Premature study termination or suspension: Modified study stop/suspension criteria from 2 life-threatening clinical events deemed probably/definitely related to study drug to 1 related event. Safety reporting - Added the Sponsor’s responsibilities for reporting SUSARs per local country regulatory requirements. DMC - Clarified DMC responsibilities and members.
    09 Oct 2019
    Reason for change: clarifications and additional objective added by sponsor Key changes: Endpoints and objectives - Addition of a second tertiary efficacy objective and corresponding endpoints: To evaluate recovery from PEx in lenabasum 20 mg BID, lenabasum 5 mg BID, and placebo. Follow-up - Addition of language to indicate subjects would be asked to participate in a 2-year safety follow-up study. Subjects who agreed to participate in the follow-up study would be consented under a separate protocol. Primary endpoint - Clarification of Definition of Pulmonary Exacerbation: addition of phrase “Physician diagnosis of pulmonary exacerbation” to the primary definition. Responder definition - Addition of definition of Early Rapid Responder: Early rapid responders will be defined in several ways including but not limited to achieving a certain degree of improvement in FEV1, improvement in CRISS score, and improvement of other related measurements within a certain period of time.
