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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the long term safety of PRALUENT in subjects with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) or non-familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) subjects at high or very high cardiovascular risk who completed the neurocognitive function study R727-CL-1532 (2016-003189-16). The secondary objectives of the study were: • To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) • To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on other lipid parameters • To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on gonadal steroid hormones
    Protection of trial subjects
    This clinical study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki, and that are consistent with the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines for GCP and applicable regulatory requirements.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The 1389 subjects who completed double-blind treatment and the end-of-study (EOS) visit in R727-CL-1532 (2016-003189-16) signed consent and were screened for this open-label study (EOS visit corresponded to day 1/visit 1 of this study).

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    First subcutaneous (SC) injection was administered in the clinic (day 1/visit 1). Four of the1389 subjects discontinued on day 1 before treatment: 2 discontinued due to failure to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria,1 withdrew consent, and 1 discontinued due to adverse event (AE). A total of 1385 subjects received any study drug on day 1.

    All subjects initiated treatment with PRALUENT (alirocumab) at the starting dose of 75 milligrams (mg) once every 2 weeks (Q2W). After week 8, the dose could be adjusted (up to 150 mg Q2W, maintained or from 150 mg Q2W to 75 mg Q2W) if needed based on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

    Number of subjects with adverse events (AE) after first administration of study drug through the last dose of study drug plus 2 weeks [1]
    End point description
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study drug which may or may not have a causal relationship with the study drug. AEs include serious adverse events (SAEs), AEs leading to treatment discontinuation, and adverse events of special interest (AESI). AESI include local injection site reactions, general allergic events, elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels greater than or equal to (≥) 3 upper limit normal (ULN) (if baseline is less than (<) ULN)/ALT ≥2 x ULN (if baseline ≥ ULN), neurologic events, neurocognitive events (according to Customized Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities [MedDRA] Query [CMQ] by Sponsor grouping and CMQ by FDA grouping), cataract, new onset diabetes (NOD), hepatic disorders, and diabetes mellitus (DM)/diabetic complications.

    Adverse events information [1]
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Adverse events (AEs) were recorded from the time of signed informed consent until the end of study, up to 80 weeks.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are reported. TEAEs are AEs that developed or worsened or became serious during the TEAE period (time from first dose of study drug to the last study visit).

    Alirocumab 75 Q2W/Up150 Q2W
    Reporting group description
    All subjects initiated treatment with PRALUENT (alirocumab) at the starting dose of 75 milligrams (mg) once every 2 weeks (Q2W). After week 8, the dose could be adjusted (up to 150 mg Q2W, maintained or from 150 mg Q2W to 75 mg Q2W) if needed based on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

    Notes
    [1] - There are no non-serious adverse events recorded for these results. It is expected that there will be at least one non-serious adverse event reported.
    Justification: No occurrence of non-serious adverse events met the 5% threshold for reporting.
