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.

    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Subjects who meet all of the following criteria at Screening and Baseline (unless otherwise indicated) may be eligible for inclusion in the study:
    1. Males or females, age ≥ 16 years.
    2. Clinical diagnosis of MA secondary to STGD in one or both eyes as determined by the Investigator.
    3. The subject must have 1 or more pathogenic mutation(s) of the ABCA4 (ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 4) gene. If only one ABCA4 pathogenic mutation is identified or if two ABCA4 pathogenic mutations that typically occur on the same allele (ie, “in cis”) are identified, the subject must have a typical STGD phenotype (at least one eye has flecks at the level of the retinal pigmented epithelium [RPE] typically seen in STGD) and be approved by the Sponsor. If 2 or more pathogenic mutations that do not typically occur on the same allele are identified, a typical STGD phenotype and separate Sponsor approval are not required. Segregation analysis is not required. The pathogenicity of all mutations will be determined by the Sponsor working with experts in ophthalmic genetics.
    4. The study eye must meet the following criteria as determined by the central reading center’s assessment of FAF imaging at Screening:
    a. Total area of DDAF
    i. If the lesion is unifocal: ≥ 3.0 – 22.0 mm2 (~1.2 – 8.7 disc areas) in size.
    ii. If the lesion is multifocal: ≥ 1.0 – 22.0 mm2 (~0.4 – 8.7 disc areas) in size.
    b. The entire lesion must be completely visualized on the macula-centered image (Field 2 – Macula Image). The DDAF lesion must be able to be imaged in its entirety, and all lesion borders must be ≥ 300 microns from all image edges.
    5. Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) BCVA letter score of ≥ 25 letters (approximately ≥ 20/320 Snellen) in the study eye at Screening.
    6. Adequate clarity of ocular media and adequate pupillary dilation to permit good quality imaging of macular atrophy in the study eye as determined by the Investigator.
    7. Able to reliably administer oral medication by self or with available assistance.
    8. Able and willing to provide written informed consent/assent
    a. For subjects ≥ 18 years of age: able and willing to provide written informed consent before undergoing any study-related procedures.
    b. For subjects ≥ 16 and < 18 years of age: able and willing to provide written informed assent, and has a parent or legal guardian able and willing to provide written informed consent for the minor before the subject undergoes any study-related procedures.
    Los sujetos que cumplan todos los criterios siguientes en la selección y el inicio (a menos que se indique lo contrario) pueden ser aptos para su inclusión en el estudio:
    1. Hombres o mujeres, edad ≥16 años.

    3. El sujeto debe tener 1 o más mutaciones patógenas en el gen ABCA4 (miembro 4 de la subfamilia de transportadores dependientes de ATP). Si solo se identifica una mutación patógena en ABCA4 o dos mutaciones patógenas en ABCA4 que normalmente se producen en el mismo alelo (es decir, “en cis”), el sujeto debe tener un fenotipo de ESTG característico (al menos un ojo presenta manchas a nivel del epitelio pigmentado de la retina [EPR] observadas normalmente en la ESTG) y ser aprobado por el promotor. Si se identifican 2 o más mutaciones patógenas que no suelen aparecer en el mismo alelo, no se precisa un fenotipo de ESTG característico ni la aprobación aparte del promotor. No se precisa análisis de separación. El promotor determinará la capacidad patógena de todas las mutaciones en colaboración con expertos en genética oftálmica.
    4. El ojo del estudio debe cumplir los siguientes criterios según lo determinado mediante evaluación de la central de lectura para estudios de imagen de autofluorescencia del fondo de ojo (FAF) en la selección:
    a. El área total de autofluorescencia claramente reducida (DDAF)
    i. Si la lesión es unifocal: ≥3,0 – 22,0 mm2 (~1,2 – 8,7 áreas de disco) en tamaño.
    ii. Si la lesión es multifocal: ≥1,0 – 22,0 mm2 (~0,4 – 8,7 áreas de disco) en tamaño.
    b. La totalidad de la lesión debe visualizarse por completo en la imagen centrada en la mácula (campo 2 – Imagen de la mácula). La lesión de DDAF debe poder capturarse en su totalidad y todos los bordes de la lesión debe ser ≥300 micras desde todos los bordes de la imagen.

    7. Capacidad para administrarse de forma fiable la medicación oral por sí mismo o con la ayuda disponible.
    8. Capacidad y disponibilidad para proporcionar consentimiento/asentimiento informado por escrito
    a. Para los sujetos ≥18 años de edad: capacidad y disponibilidad para proporcionar el consentimiento informado por escrito antes de someterse a cualquier procedimiento relacionado con el estudio.
    b. Para los sujetos ≥16 y <18 años de edad: capacidad y disponibilidad para proporcionar el asentimiento informado por escrito y tener un progenitor o tutor legal capaz y dispuesto a proporcionar el consentimiento informado por escrito para el menor antes de que el sujeto se someta a cualquier procedimiento relacionado con el estudio.

    1. Mean change from baseline in retinal sensitivity as assessed by photopic microperimetry
    2. Mean change from baseline in contrast sensitivity.
    3. Mean change from baseline in reading speed.
    4. Mean change from baseline in ETDRS BCVA letter score.
    5. Mean rate of change from baseline in the total area of decreased autofluorescence (definitely decreased plus questionably decreased), as imaged by reduced-illuminance FAF.
    6. Mean rate of change from baseline in the total area of EZ loss, as imaged on SD-OCT
    7. Mean change from baseline in mean ONL thickness, as imaged on SD-OCT
    8. Mean change from baseline in QOL instruments.
    Los criterios secundarios de valoración de la eficacia incluyen:
