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   43845   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.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial

    1. To characterize the pharmacokinetics following subcutaneous administration of ofatumumab to either the abdominal region or the thigh
    2. Assessment of immunogenicity
    3. Asses the safety and tolorability of ofatumumab
    See protocol for complete list of secondary objectives
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    MS Patients eligible for inclusion in this study must fulfill all of the following criteria:
    1. Written informed consent must be obtained before any assessment is performed.
    2. Male or Female patients aged 18 to 55 years (inclusive) at screening.
    3. Diagnosis of MS according to the 2010 Revised McDonald criteria
    4. Relapsing MS: relapsing-remitting course (RRMS), or secondary progressive (SPMS) course with disease activity
    5. Disability status at Screening with an EDSS score of 0 to 5.5 (inclusive)
    6. Documentation of at least: 1 relapse during the previous 1 year OR 2 relapses during the previous 2 years prior to Screening OR a positive Gd-enhancing MRI scan during the year prior to randomization. Note: Screening MRI scan may be used if no positive Gd enhancing scan exist from prior year.
    7. Neurologically stable within 1 month prior to randomization
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    MS Patients fulfilling any of the following criteria are not eligible for inclusion in this study:
    1. Patients suspected of not being able or willing to cooperate or comply with study protocol requirements in the opinion of the Investigator
    2. Patients with primary progressive MS (Polman et al. 2011) or SPMS without disease activity (Lublin et al. 2014)
    3. Patients meeting criteria for neuromyelitis optica (Wingerchuk et al. 2006)
    4. Disease duration of more than 10 years in patients with EDSS score of 2 or less
    5. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test.
    6. Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception during dosing and for 12 months after stopping of study medication. Highly effective contraception methods include:
    •Total abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject). Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception
    •Female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy) total hysterectomy or tubal ligation at least six weeks before taking investigational drug. In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment
    •Male sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening). For female subjects on the study, the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that subject
    •Use of oral, (estrogen and progesterone), injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception or placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS) or other forms of hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate <1%), for example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception
    In case of use of oral contraception women should have been stable on the same pill for a minimum of 3 months before taking investigational drug.
    In case local regulations deviate from the contraception methods listed above, local regulations apply and will be described in the ICF
    Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child bearing potential if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms) or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy), total hysterectomy or tubal ligation at least six weeks ago. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential.
    7. Patients with an active chronic disease (or stable but treated with immune therapy) of the immune system other than MS (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, Sjögren’s syndrome, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, etc.) or with immunodeficiency syndrome (hereditary immune deficiency, drug-induced immune deficiency)
    8. Patients with active systemic bacterial, viral or fungal infections, or known to have AIDS or to test positive for HIV antibody at Screening
    9. Patients with neurological findings consistent with Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) or confirmed PML
    10. Patients at risk of developing or having reactivation of syphilis or tuberculosis (e.g. patients with known exposure to or history of syphilis or active or latent tuberculosis, even if previously treated). Testing for syphilis and tuberculosis will be done at Screening unless such testing has been performed in the past 6 months prior to Screening with documented negative result. For syphilis testing, it should be done per local clinical practice (e.g. by positive rapid plasma reagin (RPR)). For tuberculosis testing, QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test can be done locally or by the central lab to assess patient’s eligibility at Screening.
    NOTE:
    •Patients with an indeterminate QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test may be enrolled if the repeat QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test is negative prior to randomization.
    •Patients with positive QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test are not eligible.
