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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 ).

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: As per disposition table some subjects discontinued the study after vehicle period, and the participants from vehicle period are randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups in LTS period.

    End point title
    Proportion of Participants Who Achieved Eczema Area and Severity Index 75 (EASI75) at Week 8
    End point description
    EASI scoring system examines 4 areas of the body (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs) and weights them for participants of at least 8 years of age. Each of the 4 body regions is assessed separately for erythema (E), induration/papulation/edema (I), excoriations (Ex), and lichenification (l) each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2 and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 to 72 and the severity strata are as follows: 0 = clear; 0.1 to 1.0 = almost clear; 1.1 to 7.0 = mild; 7.1 to 21.0 = moderate; 21.1 to 50.0 = severe; 50.1 to 72.0 = very severe. An EASI75 responder was defined as a participant achieving 75% or greater improvement from Baseline in EASI score.

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug-related. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study treatment. A SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or an important medical event may be considered serious when, based on appropriate medical judgment, the event may jeopardize the participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. A TEAE or treatment emergent SAE is any AE or SAE either reported for first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after first dose of study drug.

    End point description
    EASI scoring system examines 4 areas of the body (head/neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs) and weights them for participants of at least 8 years of age. Each of the 4 body regions is assessed separately for erythema (E), induration/papulation/edema (I), excoriations (Ex), and lichenification (l) each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2 and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 to 72 and the severity strata are as follows: 0 = clear; 0.1 to 1.0 = almost clear; 1.1 to 7.0 = mild; 7.1 to 21.0 = moderate; 21.1 to 50.0 = severe; 50.1 to 72.0 = very severe.

Each of the 4 body regions is assessed separately for erythema (E), induration/papulation/edema (I), excoriations (Ex), and lichenification (l) each on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = none, absent; 1 = mild; 2 = moderate; 3 = severe). Half scores are allowed between severities 1, 2 and 3. The final EASI score was obtained by weight-averaging these 4 scores and will range from 0 to 72 and the severity strata are as follows: 0 = clear; 0.1 to 1.0 = almost clear; 1.1 to 7.0 = mild; 7.1 to 21.0 = moderate; 21.1 to 50.0 = severe; 50.1 to 72.0 = very severe. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Percent Change From Baseline in Scoring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) Score During the VC Period
    End point description
    The SCORAD is a tool to assess extent and severity of eczema. To determine the extent, the rule of nines or handprint method is used to assess eczema affected area (A). To determine disease severity (B) it evaluates 6 clinical characteristics: 1. redness, 2. swelling, 3. oozing/crusting, 4. scratch marks, 5. lichenification, and 6. dryness on a 4-point scale of 0 to 3 (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe), added to give B with maximum score of 18. Subjective symptoms (C) of itch and sleeplessness are assessed using a visual analogue scale where 0 is no itch (or no sleeplessness) and 10 is the worst imaginable itch (or sleeplessness), added to give C with maximum score of 20. These 3 aspects: extent of disease (A: 0-1-2), disease severity (B: 0-18), & subjective symptoms (C: 0-20) combined using A/5 + 7*B/2+ C to give a maximum possible score of 103, where 0 = no disease and 103 = severe disease. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Change From Baseline in Atopic Dermatitis Afflicted Percentage of Body Surface Area (%BSA) During the VC Period
    End point description
    Body surface area affected by AD was assessed for 4 separate body regions and is collected as part of the EASI assessment: head and neck, trunk (including genital region), upper extremities, and lower extremities (including the buttocks). Each body region was assessed for disease extent ranging from 0% to 100% involvement. The overall total percentage was reported based off of all 4 body regions combined, after applying specific multipliers to the different body regions to account for the percent of the total BSA represented by each of the 4 regions. Use the percentage of skin affected for each region (0 to 100%) in EASI as follows: BSA Total = 0.1*BSA head and neck + 0.3*BSA trunk + 0.2* BSA upper limbs + 0.4*BSA lower limbs. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

The overall total percentage was reported based off of all 4 body regions combined, after applying specific multipliers to the different body regions to account for the percent of the total BSA represented by each of the 4 regions. Use the percentage of skin affected for each region (0 to 100%) in EASI as follows: BSA Total = 0.1*BSA head and neck + 0.3*BSA trunk + 0.2* BSA upper limbs + 0.4*BSA lower limbs. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Change From Baseline in Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) Score During the VC Period
    End point description
    The POEM is a 7-question quality-of-life assessment that asks how many days the participant has been bothered by various aspects of their skin condition during the past 7 days. It assesses disease symptoms (dryness, itching, flaking, cracking, sleep loss, bleeding and weeping) on a scale ranging from 0-4 (0 = no days, 1 = 1-2 days, 2 = 3-4 days, 3 = 5-6 days, 4 = everyday). The sum of the 7 items gives the total POEM score of 0 (absent disease) to 28 (severe disease). High scores are indicative of more severe disease and poor quality of life. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Change From Baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score During the VC Period
    End point description
    The DLQI is a simple, 10 question (Q) validated quality-of-life questionnaire to measure how much the skin problem has affected the participant. It covers 6 domains including symptoms and feelings (Q1 and Q2), daily activities (Q3 and Q4), leisure (Q5 and Q6), work and school (Q7), personal relationships (Q8 and Q9), and treatment(Q10). The recall Period of this scale is over the last week. Response categories include 0-not at all, 1-a little, 2-a lot, and 3-very much, and unanswered or not relevant responses scored as 0. Scores range from 0 ("no impact on participant's life") to 30 ("extremely large effect on participant's life"), and a 4-point change from Baseline is considered as the minimal clinically important difference threshold. A negative change from Baseline indicates less impact of the skin problem on participant's life.

    Change From Baseline in EuroQuality of Life Five Dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score During the VC Period
    End point description
    EQ-5D-5L questionnaire has: EQ-5D-5L descriptive system & EQ-VAS. EQ-5D is a validated, self-administered, generic utility questionnaire wherein participants rate their current health state based on 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. 5L indicates that for each dimension, there are 5 levels:1=no problems,2=slight problems,3=moderate problems,4=severe problems, and 5=extreme problems. EQ-5D-5L score is assessed using VAS that ranges from 0 to 100 millimetres (mm), where 0 indicates “worst health you can imagine” and 100 indicates “best health you can imagine”. The participant was asked to indicate his/her health state over past 7 days in each of the 5 dimensions. Digits for the 5 dimensions can be combined into a 5-digit number that describes the participant’s health state. In the EQ-VAS, participants had to record their health state on a scale ranging from 0 to 100. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement.
