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   43874   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint of the study is the safety and the tolerability of amifampridine.

Vital signs, 12-lead ECGs, clinical laboratory tests, physical examination findings, and concomitant medications will also be evaluated
    L’endpoint primario dello studio è la sicurezza del farmaco che sarà valutata tramite l’incidenza degli eventi avversi emergenti dal trattamento (TEAE), compresi gli eventi avversi seri (SAE). Inoltre, verranno valutati i parametri vitali, gli ECG a 12 derivazioni, i test clinici di laboratorio, i risultati dell’esame obiettivo e i farmaci concomitanti
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The primary endpoint will be assessed at months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 21 from the start of treatment with amifampridine
    L’endpoint primario dello studio sarà valutato ai mesi 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 e 21 dall’inizio del trattamento con amifampridina
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    To assess the clinical efficacy of amifampridine phosphate over time in patients with Myasthenia Gravis MG based on change in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living Score (MG-ADL)
    Valutare l’efficacia clinica dell’amifampridina fosfato nei pazienti con miastenia gravis (MG) nel corso del tempo, sulla base delle variazioni del punteggio della Scala della miastenia gravis per le attività della vita quotidiana (MG-ADL)
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Evaluation of MG-ADL will be made at months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 21 from the start of treatment
    La valutazione della scala MG-ADL sarà effettuata ai mesi 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 e 21 dall’inizio del trattamento con amifampridina
