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   44020   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7318   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 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objectives of the study by study part are:
    Part A:
    To determine the treatment effect of dupilumab compared with placebo in adult and adolescent
    patients with EoE after 24 weeks of treatment as assessed by histological and clinical measures,
    and to inform/confirm the final sample size determination for Part B.
    Part B:
    To demonstrate the efficacy of dupilumab treatment compared with placebo in adult and
    adolescent patients with EoE after 24 weeks of treatment as assessed by histological and clinical
    measures.
    Part C:
    To assess the safety and efficacy of dupilumab treatment in adult and adolescent patients with
    EoE after up to 52 weeks of treatment as assessed by histological and clinical measures.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objectives of the study are:
    -To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of dupilumab treatment for
    up to 52 weeks in adult and adolescent patients with EoE
    -To explore the relationship between dupilumab concentration and responses in adult
    and adolescent patients with EoE, using descriptive analyses
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. A documented diagnosis of EoE by endoscopic biopsy prior to screening

    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Key Exclusion Criteria (Parts A & B):
    1. Body weight ≤40 kg
    2. Prior participation in a dupilumab clinical trial, or past or current treatment with dupilumab
    3. Initiation or change of a food-elimination diet regimen or re-introduction of a previously eliminated food group in the 6 weeks prior to screening.
    4. Other causes of esophageal eosinophilia or the following conditions: hypereosinophilic syndrome and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss syndrome)
    5. Active Helicobacter pylori infection

    8. History of bleeding disorders or esophageal varices
    9. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or women planning to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study

    Key Exclusion Criteria (Part C):
    1. Participants who, during the double-blind treatment period (Part A or Part B), developed a serious adverse event (SAE) and/or adverse event (AE) deemed related to study drug, which in the opinion of the investigator could indicate that continued treatment with study drug may present an unreasonable risk for the participant.
    2. Participants who became pregnant during the double-blind treatment period
    3. Participants who are prematurely discontinued from study drug due to an AE (patients who are prematurely discontinued from study drug due to lack of efficacy are eligible to enter Part C)
    4. Patients who did not undergo endoscopy with biopsies prior to receiving rescue treatment

    baseline to week 24
    -Absolute change in EoE Histology Scoring System (EoEHSS) from baseline to week 24

    The other secondary endpoints are:
    -Proportion of patients achieving peak esophageal intraepithelial eosinophil count of ≤15 eos/hpf at week 24
    -Proportion of patients achieving peak esophageal intraepithelial eosinophil count of ≤1 eos/hpf at week 24
