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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Part 1:Primary objective=evaluate efficacy of natalizumab extended interval dosing(EID)(every 6 weeks[Q6W])in participants who have previously been treated with natalizumab standard interval dosing(SID)(every 4 weeks[Q4W])for at least 12 months,in relation to continued Q4W treatment.Secondary objectives=evaluate relapse-based clinical efficacy measures,disability worsening,additional magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)-lesion efficacy measures & safety of Q6W in participants who have previously been treated with natalizumab Q4W for at least 12 months,in relation to continued Q4W treatment.Part 2:Primary objective=evaluate participant preference for subcutaneous(SC)/intravenous(IV) route of natalizumab administration.Secondary objectives=evaluate treatment satisfaction,drug preparation & administration time,safety & immunogenicity,efficacy & characterise pharmacokinetic(PK) & pharmacodynamic(PD) drug preparation and administration time of SC versus IV routes of natalizumab administration.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Written informed consent was obtained from each participant or participant`s legally authorised representative, as applicable, prior to evaluations performed for eligibility. Participants or the participant`s legally authorised representative were given adequate time to review the information in the informed consent/assent and were allowed to ask, and have answered, questions concerning all portions of the conduct of the study.

    T2 hyperintense lesions were analysed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of brain. New MRI scans were compared with the prior MRI scans to analyse the number of new or newly enlarging T2 hyperintense lesions at Week 72 relative to baseline. Modified intent to treat (mITT) population included all randomised participants who received at least one dose of study treatment and had at least 1 postbaseline result in Part 1.

    Part 1: Time to First Relapse as Adjudicated by an Independent Neurology Evaluation Committee (INEC)
    End point description
    Relapse is defined as the onset of new or recurrent neurological symptoms, not associated with fever, infection, severe stress, or drug toxicity, lasting at least 24 hours, accompanied by new objective abnormalities on a neurological examination. Only relapses confirmed by an INEC were included in the analysis. Time to First Relapse was estimated by Kaplan-Meier method. mITT population included all randomised participants who received at least one dose of study treatment and had at least 1 postbaseline result in Part 1. 99999= Median, Q1 and Q3 were not reached in the Kaplan-Meier curve due to insufficient number of relapses.
