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   44240   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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.

    End point description
    SRI-4 response defined as 1)greater than or equal to (>=) 4-point reduction in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) total score 2)no new British Isles Lupus Assessment Group (BILAG) A and no more than 1 new BILAG B domain score and 3)no worsening in Physician Global Assessment (PGA) of Disease Activity (worsening defined as an increase of >=0.3 from baseline on a 0-3 visual analogue scale). SLEDAI-2K assessment consists of 24 items with total score of 0(no symptoms) to 105 (presence of all defined symptoms) with higher scores representing increased disease activity. BILAG Index: assessing clinical signs, symptoms,or laboratory parameters related to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE),divided into 9 organ systems. For each organ system A=severe disease,B=moderate disease,C=mild stable disease,D=inactive,but previously active,E=inactive and never affected.

    Notes
    [1] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: The analysis is planned only for these reporting arms. As pre-specified in the analysis plan, outcome measures will not be reported for the MEE arms/groups but only for the main global study arms/groups.

    Percentage of Participants Achieving a Lupus Low Disease Activity State (LLDAS) [3]
    End point description
    The LLDAS is a composite measure designed to identify patients achieving a state of low disease activity. The LLDAS response criteria were: (1) SLEDAI-2K <=4, with no activity in major organ systems (CNS, vascular, renal, cardiorespiratory and constitutional); where "no activity" is defined as all items of SLEDAI-2K within these major organ systems equal to 0. (2)no new features of lupus disease activity compared to previous occurred visit, where the "new feature" is defined as any of the SLEDAI-2K 24 items changed from 0 to greater than 0; (3) PGA (scale 0-3), <=1; (4) current prednisolone (or equivalent) dose <=7.5 mg daily. APD: All randomized participants who receive at least one dose of study drug (mITT population). Missing data was imputed using the hybrid imputation method [nonresponder imputation (NRI) + multiple imputation (MI)].

    End point description
    Participants assessed their worst pain in the last 24 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine). The average worst daily pain score was calculated as the mean of the scores over the last 7 days prior to each assessment time point. Higher score indicated severe pain. Least Squares (LS) mean was calculated using Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) analysis with treatment, baseline disease activity (total SLEDAI-2K <10; >=10), baseline corticosteroid dose (<10 mg/day; >= 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), region (North America, Central/South, America/Mexico, Europe, Asia Rest of World), visit (as categorical variable), baseline value, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value-by-visit interaction.

    Change from Baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-Fatigue) Total Score [7]
    End point description
    FACIT-Fatigue score calculated according to a 13-item questionnaire that assess self reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function. It uses a 5-point Likert-type scale (0 = not at all; 1 = a little bit; 2 = somewhat; 3 = quite a bit; 4 = very much). The sum of all responses resulted in the FACIT-Fatigue score for a total possible score of 0 (worse possible score) to 52 (best score). A higher score reflected an improvement in the participant's health status. Least Squares (LS) mean was calculated using MMRM analysis with treatment, baseline disease activity (total SLEDAI-2K <10; >=10), baseline corticosteroid dose (<10 mg/day; >= 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), region (North America, Central/South, America/Mexico, Europe, Asia Rest of World), visit (as categorical variable), baseline value, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value-by-visit interaction.

    Population Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve of Baricitinib at Steady State (AUCτ, ss)
    End point description
    PK: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve of Baricitinib at Steady State (AUCτ, ss) was evaluated using population PK approach. APD: All randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had evaluable PK data. As pre-specified in the analysis plan, outcome measures will not be reported for the MEE arms/groups but only for the main global study arms/groups.
