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
    The primary objective was to evaluate long-term safety of denosumab in subjects with pediatric osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) who completed Study 20130173 (EudraCT Number: 2014-000184-40).
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) regulations/guidelines. The study protocol and all amendments, the informed consent form, and any accompanying materials provided to the subjects were reviewed and approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) at each study center. The investigator or his/her designee informed the subject of all aspects pertaining to the subject’s participation in the study before any screening procedures were performed.

    Number of Participants with Metaphyseal Index Z-score Above Age-appropriate Normal Range [6]
    End point description
    Anteroposterior radiographs of both knees (unless prohibited by the presence of hardware such as implants) were used to calculate the metaphyseal index Z-score of each knee in participants with open growth plates; the knee selected for assessment during the study was the knee with the higher Z-score at baseline. The metaphyseal index (MI) was calculated by the central imaging vendor as the ratio of femoral width over distal femoral growth plate width, and the Z-score for each subject, relative to the subject’s age as: MI Z-score = (subject value – mean)/SD, where mean and standard deviation (SD) are the corresponding values based on a reference population for the subject’s age group at the time of the assessment. Metaphyseal index Z-score above age-appropriate normal range is defined as a MI Z-score > 2. The metaphyseal analysis set includes subjects with open growth plates and no hardware preventing accurate calculation of MI at baseline and knee X-ray at baseline and postbaseline.

    Participants underwent a visual inspection under natural light for the presence of the first and second molars. Participants were referred to a dentist to perform radiographic assessment of the unerupted molar(s) if: - A participant was age 7 to 12 years and appeared to have an unerupted upper or lower first molar (ie, not all 4 first molars were visible/detectable). - A participant was age 13 years or older and appeared to have an unerupted upper or lower (first or) second molar (ie, not all 4 first molars and all 4 second molars were visible/detectable). Abnormal molar eruptions includes the number of participants 7 to 12 years of age with 1st unerupted or partially erupted molars and participants 13 years of age or older with 2nd unerupted or partially erupted molars. The analysis at each time point includes participants with radiologic assessments.

    Percent Change from Baseline in Mandibular Shaping Parameters [11]
    End point description
    Lateral cephalogram was performed to enable assessment of mandibular shaping. The lateral cephalogram is a profile X-ray of the skull and soft tissues and is used to assess the relation of the teeth in the jaws, the relation of the jaws to the skull, and the relation of the soft tissues to the teeth and jaws. The following anatomical angles and dimensions were measured to evaluate the correct proportions of the mandible and its position relative to the skull/maxilla: Gonial angle; Sella-Nasion-A Point Angle (SNA angle); Sella-Nasion-B Point Angle (SNB angle); and A Point - Nasion-B Point Angle (ANB Angle). The analysis at each time point includes participants with radiologic assessments. "99999" indicates Not Applicable.

    Change from Baseline in Lumbar Spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Z-score
    End point description
    Bone densitometry assessments of the lumbar spine were performed using dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The Z-score indicates the number of standard deviations away from the mean of an average person of the same age, sex, race, and weight. A Z-score of 0 is equal to the mean of the matched population, negative Z-scores indicate a BMD lower than the mean of the matched population, and positive Z-scores indicate a higher BMD than that of the matched population. A positive change from baseline indicates an improvement in lumbar spine BMD. The DXA analysis set includes all subjects with baseline and ≥ 1 postbaseline valid DXA assessments for lumbar spine as provided by the central imaging vendor.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    11 Jul 2019
    Major changes to the protocol included: • included incidence of adverse events of special interest in the primary endpoint. • clarified the treatment options for the study. • updated dose modification language.
    31 Mar 2020
    Major changes to the protocol included: • defined denosumab Q3M as the investigational product for the study. • modified inclusion criteria to allow subjects who ­did not reconsent to transition to Q3M dosing regimen in Study 20130173, or early terminated from Study 20130173 due to meeting BMD Z-score investigational product stopping criteria. • updated end of study definition. • updated dose modification language.
    30 Apr 2020
    Major changes to the protocol included: • clarified that day 10 and day 30 assessments are only required for subjects who started the Q3M dosing regimen for the first time.
    17 Nov 2020
    Major changes to the protocol included: • added additional serum calcium samples at days 10 and 30 after investigational product dosing at weeks 12 and 24. • updated definition of study day 1 and end of study.
    14 Jan 2021
    Major changes to the protocol included: • updated to harmonize content with Study 20130173 protocol after minor updates to Schedule of Activities and remove reference to the Safety Report Form.
    09 Nov 2021
    Major updates to the protocol included: • updated text throughout based on early study termination due to the risk of hypercalcemia. • added immediate discontinuation of all subjects from study treatment followed by a 24-week safety follow-up period.
    02 Feb 2022
    Major updates to the protocol included: • removed the secondary efficacy endpoints of fracture and growth velocity. • clarified that BMD Z-score and BTM will be assessed at 6, 12, and 24 months. • removed the exploratory endpoint of BMD and bone mineral content. • removed the subgroup analysis.
