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   44335   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 Frequency of Moderate to Severe VMS at Week 4
    End point description
    The frequency of moderate to severe VMS was the number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours. A daily frequency per week was derived by taking the mean of the data over 7 days. Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Baseline was the average number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours based on the non-missing values in the 10 days immediately prior to randomization.

    Change From Baseline in The Mean Frequency of Moderate to Severe VMS at Week 12
    End point description
    The frequency of moderate to severe VMS was the number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours. A daily frequency per week was derived by taking the mean of the data over 7 days. Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Baseline was the average number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours based on the non-missing values in the 10 days immediately prior to randomization. APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    Change From Baseline in The Mean Severity of Moderate to Severe VMS at Week 4
    End point description
    Severity of moderate to severe VMS per day at post baseline visit was calculated as follows: [(number of mild hot flashes per day x 1) + (number of moderate hot flashes per day x 2) + (number of severe hot flashes per day x 3)]/Total number of daily mild/moderate/severe hot flashes Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Severity was zero for participants that had no mild or moderate or severe VMS. Higher scores indicates greater severity. APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    Change From Baseline in The Mean Patient-reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Sleep Disturbance – Short Form 8b (PROMIS SD SF 8b) Total Score at Week 12
    End point description
    The PROMIS SD SF 8b assesses self-reported sleep disturbance over the past 7 days and includes perceptions of restless sleep; satisfaction with sleep; refreshing sleep; difficulties sleeping, getting to sleep or staying asleep; amount of sleep; and sleep quality. Because it assesses the participants experience of sleep disturbance, the measure does not focus on specific sleep-disorder symptoms or ask patients to report objective measures of sleep (e.g., total amount of sleep, time to fall asleep and amount of wakefulness during sleep). Responses to each of the 8 items range from 1 (no disturbed sleep) to 5 (disturbed sleep), and the range of possible summed raw scores is 8 to 40. Higher scores on the PROMIS SD SF 8b indicate more of the disturbed sleep. APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    Change from Baseline in The Mean Severity of Moderate, and Severe VMS to Each Study Week Up to Week 12
    End point description
    Severity of moderate to severe VMS per day at post baseline visit was calculated as follows: [(number of mild hot flashes per day x 1) + (number of moderate hot flashes per day x 2) + (number of severe hot flashes per day x 3)]/Total number of daily mild/moderate/severe hot flashes Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Severity was zero for participants that had no mild or moderate or severe VMS. Higher scores indicates greater severity. APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    End point title
    Mean Percent Change in The Frequency of Moderate And Severe VMS From Baseline to Each Study Week Up to Week 12
    End point description
    The frequency of moderate to severe VMS was the number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours. A daily frequency per week was derived by taking the mean of the data over 7 days. Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Baseline was the average number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours based on the non-missing values in the 10 days immediately prior to randomization. APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    Number of Participants With Percent Reduction of >=50% in the Mean Frequency of Moderate and Severe VMS From Baseline to Each Study Week Up to Week 12
    End point description
    The frequency of moderate to severe VMS was the number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours. A daily frequency per week was derived by taking the mean of the data over 7 days. Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Baseline was the average number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours based on the non-missing values in the 10 days immediately prior to randomization. Participant has >=50% reduction from baseline to each post baseline week for the frequency of moderate to severe VMS. APD: FAS Population

    Number of Participants With Mean Percent Reduction of 100% in The Mean Frequency of Moderate, and Severe VMS From Baseline to Each Study Week Up to Week 12
    End point description
    The frequency of moderate to severe VMS was the number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours. A daily frequency per week was derived by taking the mean of the data over 7 days. Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Baseline was the average number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours based on the non-missing values in the 10 days immediately prior to randomization. Participant has 100% reduction from baseline to each post baseline week for the frequency of moderate to severe VMS. APD: FAS Population

    End point title
    Number of Participants in Each Category of Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGIC) in VMS at Each Visit [121]
    End point description
    The PGI is comprised of 2 companion 1-item PRO measures analogous to the Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scales. These measures provide brief, stand-alone global assessments prior to and after initiating a study medication. Patient-perceived change from the initiation of treatment (PGI-C)-VMS is used to evaluate meaningful within-person changes over time in VMS. This measure provides patient-perceived change from the initiation of treatment. The PGI-C VMS asks: “Compared to the beginning of this study, how would you rate your HFs/night sweats now?” Subject ratings range from (1) much better to (7) much worse. Participant ratings range from 1=much better, 2= moderately better, 3= a little better, 4= no change, 5= a little worse, 6= moderately worse, 7= much worse. 99999 denotes "NA". APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    Weeks 4, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 48, 52 of fezolinetant exposure (weeks 16, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48 and 52 for arms Placebo/Fezolinetant 30 mg and Placebo/Fezolinetant 45 mg)
    Notes
    [121] - 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: There was no pre-specified statistical analysis for this endpoint.

    Change from Baseline in The Mean Frequency of Moderate, and Severe VMS at Week 24
    End point description
    The frequency of moderate to severe VMS was the number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours. A daily frequency per week was derived by taking the mean of the data over 7 days. Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Baseline was the average number of moderate to severe VMS per 24 hours based on the non-missing values in the 10 days immediately prior to randomization.

    Change from Baseline in The Mean Severity of Moderate, and Severe VMS at Week 24
    End point description
    Severity of moderate to severe VMS per day at post baseline visit was calculated as follows: [(number of mild hot flashes per day x 1) + (number of moderate hot flashes per day x 2) + (number of severe hot flashes per day x 3)]/Total number of daily mild/moderate/severe hot flashes Moderate VMS was defined as sensation of heat with sweating/dampness, but participant was able to continue activity. If at night, participant woke up because she was feeling hot and/or was sweating, but no action was necessary other than rearranging the bed sheets. Severe VMS was defined as sensation of intense heat with sweating, caused disruption of activity. If at night, participant woke up hot and was sweating and needed to take action (e.g., remove layers of clothes, open the window, or get out of bed). Severity was zero for participants that had no mild or moderate or severe VMS. Higher scores indicates greater severity. APD: FAS population with available data at specified time point.

    Number of Participants With Adverse Events [122]
    End point description
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study drug, & which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease temporally associated with use of a medicinal product (mp) whether or not considered related to the mp. An AE is considered “serious” if it results in death, is life-threatening, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, results in congenital anomaly or birth defect, requires inpatient hospitalization or leads to prolongation of hospitalization, hospitalization for treatment/observation/examination caused by AE is to be considered as serious, discontinuation due to increases in liver enzymes, other medically important events.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    17 May 2019
    The study title was updated to convey that the second phase of the study was a non-controlled extension period. The number of participants to be enrolled was increased from 300 to 450, and the sample size justification parameters were updated to reflect a possible 20% discontinuation rate instead of a 32% rate. An additional treatment arm was added to include a 45 mg dose of fezolinetant. The schedule of assessments was updated to include a mammogram at week 52/end of treatment/early discontinuation and an endometrial biopsy following study discontinuation. The screening serology panel was updated to include testing for antibody against hepatitis B antigen and antibody to hepatitis B core antigen. The dose rationale was updated with additional information about Study ESN364_HF_205 and results regarding the potential for drug-induced liver injury. The length of time prior to screening in which a normal/negative or not clinically significant mammogram may have been performed was increased to within 12 months of trial enrollment. The schedule of assessments was updated to include 2 additional study visits (2b and 5b). The schedule of assessments and pharmacokinetics assessment sections were updated to include the addition of blood draws for pharmacokinetic analysis in participants with a signal of elevated transaminases who were returning for a repeat hepatic abnormality testing blood draw. Details were added for the reporting of drug-induced liver damage and it was clarified that such events were to be characterized as serious adverse events. The statistical analysis was updated to accommodate inclusion of a second dosing cohort.

    Inclusion criterion 4 was updated to remove with or without hysterectomy from the bilateral oophorectomy screening criteria. Inclusion criteria 8 and 10 were aligned to account for the exclusion of participants who had a hysterectomy. Inclusion criterion 9 was updated to specify that the endometrial biopsy obtained at screening must have been considered evaluable; this criterion was now required for all participants. Alternate measures that may be implemented due to site closures related to the COVID-19 pandemic were added to the protocol. These included telemedicine conferences (by telephone), home healthcare services and laboratory assessments performed at local laboratories. It was noted that participants who screen failed due to a COVID-19 pandemic study suspension and have had an evaluable endometrial biopsy would not require a repeat biopsy if they rescreened. Exclusion criteria 6 and 7 were updated so that they applied to all participants, not just participants with a uterus, and the exception for endometrial thickness less than 4 mm was removed from exclusion criterion 7. Exclusion criterion 20 was added to exclude participants who had partial or full hysterectomies. Language was added to specify that the screening endometrial biopsy must have been evaluable. Retest biopsies were only to be performed for insufficient material or unevaluable biopsies, and a maximum of 1 retest biopsy during screening was allowed. It was noted that participants would be allowed into the study based on the primary endometrial result/diagnosis, but a second and tertiary diagnosis would also be reported.
    01 Jul 2020
    Adverse events (AEs) of abuse liability, depression, wakefulness and effect on memory were added to the protocol as AEs of special interest. AEs of liver test elevation were clarified. Category 2 results of secondary or tertiary screening endometrial biopsy diagnosis were added to the list of reasons for participant discontinuation. The exploratory endpoint of “Mean score on the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) in VMS from baseline to each visit” was re-categorized as a secondary endpoint. Sections 7.4.2.2 Secondary Endpoints and 7.4.3 Exploratory Endpoints were updated to move the PGI-C analysis to Section 7.4.2.2. Language was added to instruct sites about daily diary compliance.
