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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 demonstrate the superiority of bumetanide (0.5 mg b.i.d.) oral liquid formulation compared to placebo in the improvement of ASD core symptoms, as evaluated on Childhood Autism Rating Scale, second edition (CARS2), after 6 months of treatment in ASD children and adolescents aged from 7 to less than 18 years old.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practice standards, ethical principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki and applicable regulatory requirements. After the subject has ended his/her participation in the trial, the investigator provided appropriate medication and/or arranged access to appropriate care for the patient.

    Date
    Interruption
    Restart date
    13 Sep 2021
    The superiority of bumetanide compared to placebo in ASD was not demonstrated in this phase III study. As none of the efficacy endpoints were reached and due to the identified risk of hypokalaemia and associated effects linked to the drug’s diuretic activity, the Benefit/Risk ratio of the study treatment in ASD was considered negative. Consequently, the sponsor decided to stop the S95008 development and prematurely discontinue the extension period. This decision was not related to unexpected safety concerns.
