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.

    Change from Baseline in the Mean Rett Syndrome Behaviour Questionnaire (RSBQ) Total Score at Week 24 for the 15 mg/kg/day GWP42003-P Dose Level Compared with Placebo [1] [2]
    End point description
    RSBQ is a caregiver-completed questionnaire that measures the frequency of current disease characteristics (45 items) in individuals with Rett Syndrome. Each item is rated on a 3-point scale (0-2); 0 indicating an item that is "not true as far as you know," 1 indicating an item is "somewhat or sometimes true," and 2 indicating an item that is "very true or often true." Higher scores represent greater severity. Except for item 31 ("Uses eye gaze to convey feelings, needs and wishes"), which is reverse-scored (0 indicating "very true or often true", 1 indicating "somewhat or sometimes true" and 2 indicating "not true as far as you know"). Analysis was conducted in members of the ITT Set, defined as all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of drug in the trial, and had Baseline efficacy data. CFB = Change from Baseline.

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: Only descriptive statistical analysis was performed for this primary end point. The planned inferential statistical analysis was not carried out due to the limited sample size compared to that planned, because of the trial termination.
    [2] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Only the comparison between GWP42003-P 15 mg/kg group with placebo was evaluated in this primary end point.

    End point title
    Change from Baseline in Mean 9-item Motor Behavioral Assessment (MBA-9) Total Score and Subscale scores at Week 24
    End point description
    MBA-9 is derived from the full MBA scale (37 Rett syndrome symptoms) by selecting the items deemed amenable to change and which reflected areas of meaningful clinical change. The severity of current symptoms is rated by the investigator on a 5-point numerical scale; (0 = normal or never; 1 = mild or rare; 2 = moderate or occasional; 3 = marked or frequent; 4 = very severe or constant). The MBA-9 score is calculated by summing the scores of the individual items. The maximum score is 36; higher total scores represent greater severity. CFB = Change from Baseline.

    Change from Baseline in Mean Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) Total Score and Subscale Scores at Week 24
    End point description
    The CSHQ is a caregiver-completed sleep screening instrument designed for school-aged children, including 33 items within 8 subscales reflecting the following sleep domains: 1) bedtime resistance, 2) sleep onset delay, 3) sleep duration, 4) sleep anxiety, 5) night wakings, 6) parasomnias, 7) sleep-disordered breathing, 8) daytime sleepiness. Each item is answered with 1 of 3 markers: "usually," for 5 or more times a week, "sometimes," for 2-4 times a week, and "rarely," for never or 1 time a week. Higher scores reflect more disturbed sleep behavior. CFB = Change from Baseline.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    04 Feb 2019
    - Exclusion criteria were updated to exclude patients with moderate hepatic impairment; added clarification to investigational medicinal product (IMP) dosing instructions and compliance documentation and information collected on pharmacokinetic sample collection days; updated the list of prohibited therapies during the trial; and added clarifications to the statistical analysis and trial monitoring. -Updated the exclusion criteria related to hepatic and cardiovascular functions, contraception and hypersensitivity to cannabinoids or excipients. -Added additional time points to the safety assessments (pregnancy, electrocardiogram, clinical laboratory). -Information on concomitant therapy and potential drug interactions and dose reduction of IMP were added. -Minimum age was lowered from 4 years to 2 years in the inclusion criteria. -Caregiver assessment of Rett symptoms (symptom diary) was added.
    18 Jul 2019
    - The protocol was updated to specify the Rett Syndrome Behaviour Questionnaire (RSBQ) as the primary end point, and the Clinical Global Impressions - Improvement (CGI-I) as the key secondary end point. - Contraceptive measures were more precisely documented within the protocol, and aligned with the Clinical Trial Facilitation Group guideline. - The protocol was updated to include a benefit-risk assessment concluding that the overall benefit-risk for the development of Cannabidiol oral solution in the Rett syndrome population is favorable. - Clarification that methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) mutation must be pathogenic; removal of option to proceed with randomization without confirmation of mutation type; this was to ensure sites confirm the genetic mutation was pathogenic prior to randomization. - Clarification on criteria requiring IMP discontinuation rather than study withdrawal, as patients/caregivers were encouraged to remain in the trial and continue to complete trial assessments/visits as per protocol even if IMP was discontinued.
    07 Jul 2020
    - Inclusion criteria were changed to allow the enrolment of males, the contraception requirements and tanner staging were updated for inclusion of males. - Wording regarding IMP administration via gastrostomy or nasogastric feeding tube was updated in the inclusion criteria and the IMP administration sections to remove reference to specific tube materials and instead required a discussion with the medical monitor to confirm suitability of tubes being used. - The number of sites expected to participate was increased to 35 from 25. The requirement of subject weight <13 kg was updated to <19 kg for the collection of blood sample at Visit 1/prior to Visit 1 for MECP2 mutation analysis and the permitted visit window for Visit 2 of +3 days was updated to +6 days from the scheduled visit date so that sufficient time was available for MECP2 mutation analysis results. Language related to meal at Visit 5 and telephone visits (Visits 3, 4 and 11) was updated. Informed consent procedure and training requirements were updated as a result of the change in policy with the Sponsor. - A new section for special circumstances was included to detect cases of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 infection (or other significant communicable infectious diseases) within a year of Screening (Visit 1). - Language updates were made to the reporting procedures for all AEs in relation to action taken with trial medication; to the trial monitoring procedure to reflect that monitoring might occur onsite or remotely; and to align with the GW Research Ltd publication policy.

    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.
    This study was terminated early due to enrollment challenges and the COVID-19 pandemic. Numbers of subjects in each treatment groups were small, which precluded the planned formal statistical inferences and limited data interpretation.
