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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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
    Primary: • To investigate the safety and tolerability of macimorelin acetate after ascending single oral doses of macimorelin in pediatric patients with suspected GHD. Secondary: • To investigate the PK of macimorelin acetate in pediatric patients with suspected GHD; • To investigate the PD of macimorelin acetate as measured by GH release in pediatric patients with suspected GHD; • To explore the PK/PD relationship following single oral dose administration of macimorelin acetate in pediatric patients with suspected GHD.
    Protection of trial subjects
    All patients were informed that they had the right to withdraw from the trial at any time, for any reason, without prejudice, and without having to justify their reasons or decisions. Additionally, the investigator might have discontinued patient’s participation at any time if he/she would have considered that to be in the patient’s best interest or if the investigator determined that continuing the participation would have resulted in a significant safety risk for that patient. Pediatic patients had to meet specific inclusion criterion to be eligible for admission to the trial, and they were ineligible to participate if meeting specific exclusion criteria. Once all the screening data became available, investigator performed the final evaluation of the patient’s eligibility in the eCRF and forwarded it to the Medical Monitor (MM) for a final review. The MM confirmed eligibility in the eCRF. The DRC comprised a panel of selected experts and a representative of the Sponsor. The dose titration program was reconsidered after completion of each dose step and would proceed only if the previous dose step reviewed and confirmed by the DRC had shown acceptable safety and tolerability. Sequential cohorts of trial participants received macimorelin at ascending single oral doses, The dose titration program was reconsidered after completion of each dose step and would proceed only if the previous dose step reviewed and confirmed by Data Review Committee (DRC) had shown acceptable safety and tolerability. This DRC comprised a panel of selected experts and a representative of the Sponsor. The investigational medicinal product (IMP) macimorelin was administered by trial personnel experience in pediatrics. A growth hormone stimulation test (GHST) Tolerability Questionniare was completed by patients or parents/legal guardians. It included specific questions regarding the acceptability of taste, any signs for an impact on sleep, appetite and gastrointestinal Symptoms.
    Background therapy
    The selection of the two different sGHSTs followed the respective trial site’s clinical standard practice and, therefore, the test agents used were considered as ‘background’ and not as ‘investigational’ medicinal products. The following pharmacological agents were accepted for sGHSTs performed as part of the standard procedures for diagnosing GHD in pediatric patients: Insulin tolerance test (ITT), Arginine, Arginine/Growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH), Clonidine, Glucagon, L-dopa.
    Evidence for comparator
    This was a dose-escalation, PK/PD study. No comparators were used.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The trial started on 07-Feb-2019 with the first informed consent signed. The first sGHST was administered in Cohort 1 (C1) on 13-Feb-2019. In C1, the first macimorelin test was conducted on 28-Feb-2019, in Cohort 2 (C2) on 08-Jul-2019, and in Cohort 3 (C3) on 05-Dec-2019. The trial was completed with Last-Patient-Last-Visit on 24-Jan-2020.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Altogether 27 patients consented to trial participation in 11 trial centers in 6 countries. 24 patients had an evaluable first standard Growth Hormone Stimulation test and, thus, were considered as enrolled in the Trial.

    Blinding implementation details
    The trial was conducted open-label as trial medication and procedures cannot be masked. Macimorelin was administered as oral solution. The sGHSTs were considered as ‘background’ (i.e., standard medication) and not as IMPs. Depending on the sGHSTs selected by the trial site, the test agents were administered i.v., i.m., s.c., or peroral. The Investigators were blinded towards GH values (test results) until both sGHSTs were performed and adjudicated evaluable by the DRC.

    Exploration of a suitable GH cut-off point for the macimorelin GHST
    End point description
    ROC curves were created to plot the sensitivity and specificity of all possible peak GH values after macimorelin GHST at the categorization of subjects with GHD vs. non GHD based on investigator’s assessment. Cut-off point with the maximum Youden index value was selected by cohort. In case of equivalence, cut-off point with higher sensitivity was chosen. Weighted Youden index was calculated with having more weight on sensitivity. The weight for the Youden index was 0.6 and 0.7. The following formula was used for the calculation: Weighted Youden index= 2w SEN + 2 (1-w) SPEC - 1. Specificity, sensitivity, negative predictive value (NPV), positive predictive value (PPV) and weighted Youden index are presented by cohort. As a sensitivity analysis, three different GH cut-off points were selected based on the categorization of subjects with standard GHST considering ‘confirmed’ vs. ‘not confirmed’ cases.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Adverse Events (AEs) were recorded from after the moment of signing ICF and up to the end of the trial (V4), i.e. from Day -28 to D-1 (Screening) up to D19+ (V4).
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    No AE was reported in relationship to macimorelin. No serious AE (SAE) was reported in this study. Majority of AEs was related to the Insulin tolerance test (ITT). AEs were mostly of mild to moderate intensity. Known side effects were reported for sGHST. ITT related AES comprised symptoms of hypoglycemia, which is a clinical endpoint of this sGHST.
