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 ).

    Number of Subjects with Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs) up to 30 Days After Study Treatment Discontinuation [3]
    End point description
    An adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a subject administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product. SAE is any AE that results in: death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product, is life-threatening experience, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and may jeopardize subject and/or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. Any AE and SAE occurring at or after the study treatment start up to 30 days after end of treatment (EOT) within the analysis set was considered to be treatment-emergent. The SERENADE OL safety analysis set included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of macitentan 10 mg.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    02 Aug 2018
    The purpose of this amendment was to correct the description of the investigational medicinal product used in the study.
    16 May 2019
    The purpose of this amendment was to: introduce a new efficacy endpoint, the 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), assessed by the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), as part of a substudy to assess the change from baseline in exercise capacity; include the collection of mid-regional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP) and a research biomarker (optional) sample at scheduled visits and at the time of a fluid retention or worsening heart failure event to continue the analysis from the main study; include the collection of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) at the time of fluid retention or worsening heart failure event to support the clinical event committee (CEC) review.
    06 Feb 2020
    The purpose of this amendment was to: align the strategy for subject enrollment into this open-label (OL) extension study due to premature termination of recruitment into the main study (AC-055G202/ SERENADE)-eligible subjects could enroll into this OL extension study after remaining in the main study for at least 24 weeks; remove evaluation of the efficacy assessments (that is, Kansas City cardiomyopathy questionnaire, accelerometry, echocardiography, and blood sample collection for NT-proBNP, MR-proANP, and biomarkers) in an effort to simplify the study and reduce assessment burden for subjects and study site personnel; stop the substudy assessments (6MWT and Borg Dyspnea Index), as number of subjects participating in the substudy was too low to allow for meaningful interpretation of results; remove CEC adjudication in line with the main study global protocol Version 6. The CEC was appointed to review and adjudicate in a blinded fashion worsening heart failure event, the reasons for hospitalization, and causes of death. The rationale was based on the reduction of the double-blind treatment period from 52 weeks to 24 weeks coupled with the low occurrence of clinical events, which did not allow meaningful conclusions to be drawn. However, the investigator assessment of worsening heart failure events was continued. Removal of the CEC did not affect safety monitoring and therefore, the decision was also endorsed by the independent data monitoring committee; created a single version of the SERENADE OL AC-055G203 protocol by incorporating voluntary harmonization procedure (VHP)-mandated changes into the global protocol version.
    16 Jul 2020
    The purpose of this amendment was to update the exclusion criteria and concomitant therapy sections pertaining to new information regarding a drug-drug-interaction of macitentan with moderate dual cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 and CYP2C9 inhibitors or co-administration of a combination of moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors and moderate CYP2C9 inhibitors.
    26 Nov 2020
    The purpose of this amendment was to adapt to changed internal safety language and reporting processes to align with TransCelerate template, to update information about post-treatment access program, study treatment storage conditions, forbidden medications, Actelion’s policy for study data disclosure, and to make minor editorial revisions and corrections.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Limited number of efficacy parameters were assessed in an exploratory manner. Study was stopped prematurely as main double-blind study did not meet the primary efficacy endpoint.
