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   44024   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7318   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 The study included a screening period (up to 28 days), a double-blind induction treatment period (12 weeks), and a 2-week and a 4-week follow-up period. The target population consisted of male or female subjects aged between 16 and 80 years (inclusive), with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 During the screening period, subjects were evaluated for study entry based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Screening procedures to evaluate subject eligibility for the study were to be conducted within 28 days prior to study drug administration on Day 1.

    All study personnel directly related to this study (investigators, study site personnel, monitors, and CRO and Sponsor personnel), with the exception of the clinical supply staff, some safety staff, and the unblinded statistician supporting the DSMB, were blinded to the identity of study drug. Randomization codes were generated by a CRO statistician not directly involved with the study.

    End point description
    Mucosal healing was defined as an endoscopic sub score of less than or equal to 1 (Excluding friability) with histologic remission measured by a Geboes Index score < 2.0). The centrally read endoscopic sub-score of mayo score ranges from 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. Geboes score grading system, was a validated score for evaluating histologic disease activity in UC as follows: grade 0 = structural and architectural changes; grade 1 = chronic inflammatory infiltrate; grade 2 = lamina propria neutrophils and eosinophils; grade 3 = neutrophils in the epithelium; grade 4 = crypt destruction; grade 5 = erosions or ulceration. A higher Geboes score indicates more severe disease.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    05 Mar 2019
    Amendment 1 - provides additional guidance for the cardiac monitoring procedures required on Day 1 after the first dose of study treatment. These additional monitoring procedures are based feedback from the Food and Drug Administration. In particular, post-dose safety vital signs, 12-lead ECGs, monitoring of subjects who do not meet the discharge criteria, and discontinuation rules have been revised.
    07 Feb 2020
    Amendment 2 - update eligibility criteria (eg, contraception use). Additional instructions for safety monitoring related to ophthalmoscopy and optical coherence tomography testing were included. The prohibition of concomitant use of QT prolonging drugs was removed based on the results of the QT study (Study APD334-008). In addition, a 4-Week Safety Follow-Up visit was added. Clarification and further instructions for tuberculosis testing were added and the tuberculosis screening questionnaire was updated.
    22 Feb 2021
    Amendment 3 - includes guidance for conducting virtual and offsite visits. Also, information on anti-arrhythmic drugs was added to prohibited concomitant therapies. Language was updated regarding timing of screening optical coherence tomography (OCTs) and pulmonary function tests (PFTs). Additionally, an exclusion criterion was added regarding treatment with topical rectal Chinese medicine, enemas or suppositories prior to randomization. Minor corrections were made for consistency within the protocol.
