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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint for the study is based on blinded raters’ Clinical Impression of Change in Severity (CI-CS) comparing videos showing the patient’s change in performance over 6 weeks on a pre-defined anchor clinical symptom scale: either the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or the 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT).
    The comparison of the Visit 4 video with the Visit 2 video and the comparison of the Visit 6 video with the Visit 4 video will provide the scores that contribute to the primary endpoint. Each of these comparisons will score change on a 7-point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse).
    During the pre-treatment period, the treating physician will evaluate each patient’s clinical symptoms and select, at Visit 1, either the 9HPT-D or 8MWT as the primary anchor around which the CI-CS assessment will be scored. A cognitive assessment should be performed at Visit 1 according to standard procedures of the clinical site to assist with the selection of the anchoring functional test appropriate for each patient from both a cognitive and a motor perspective.
    The primary evaluation of the CI-CS will be performed by two independent neurologists whose assessments will be based on videos of the anchor test taken at each visit. These raters will be blinded to the treatment periods (baseline, treatment, or washout) to reduce detection and performance bias.
    The primary endpoint is defined as the CI-CS comparing end of treatment with N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (Visit 4) with baseline (Visit 2) minus the CI-CS comparing the end of washout (Visit 6) with the end of treatment with N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (Visit 4).
    The CI-CS assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: ‘compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9HPT-D or 8MWT changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video?’
    It is expected that the blinded observers will reach agreement on the CI-CS scores by consensus. If consensus cannot be achieved, then the average score will be taken. All disagreements will be documented.
    The statistical analysis of this endpoint will utilize a single sample t-test comparing the mean value of the primary endpoint with zero. This endpoint allows the effect N-Acetyl-L-Leucine to be measured both in terms of improvement during treatment followed by any deterioration once treatment is removed.
    Summary statistics will in addition be calculated separately according to subgroups defined by the chosen anchor test
    El criterio principal de valoración para el estudio se basa en la comparación de la impresión clínica del cambio en la gravedad (CI-CS) de los evaluadores a los que se oculta el tratamiento mediante la comparación de vídeos que muestran el cambio del rendimiento en el paciente después de 6 semanas en una escala de síntomas clínicos principal definida previamente: o bien la prueba del clavijero con nueve orificios de la mano dominante (PC9O-MD) o la prueba de marcha de 8 metros (PM8M).
    La comparación del vídeo de la visita 4 con el de la visita 2 y la comparación del vídeo de la visita 6 con el de la 4 proporcionarán las puntuaciones que contribuyan a generar el criterio principal de valoración. Cada una de estas comparaciones puntuará el cambio en una escala de Likert de 7 puntos (de +3 = mejora significativa a -3 = empeoramiento significativo).
    Durante el tratamiento previo, el médico responsable evaluará todos los síntomas clínicos del paciente y seleccionará, en la visita 1, una de las dos pruebas (PC9O-MD o PM8M) como herramienta principal sobre la que basar la evaluación de CI-CS. Se llevará a cabo una evaluación cognitiva durante la visita 1 de acuerdo con los procedimientos estándar del centro clínico y con objeto de realizar la selección de la prueba funcional principal apropiada para cada paciente desde un punto de vista motor y cognitivo.
    La evaluación primaria de la CI-CS será realizada por dos neurólogos independientes cuyos exámenes se basarán en los vídeos de la prueba principal que se realizarán en cada visita. A estos evaluadores se les ocultarán los períodos de tratamiento (valoración inicial, tratamiento o reposo farmacológico) para reducir el sesgo de detección y procedimiento.
    El criterio principal de valoración se define como la comparación de la CI-CS del fin del tratamiento con N-acetil-L-leucina (visita 4) con la valoración inicial (visita 2) menos la comparación de la CI-CS del final del período de reposo farmacológico (visita 6) con el final del tratamiento con N-acetil-L-leucina (visita 4).
    El evaluador a quien se oculta el tratamiento recibirá instrucciones mediante la evaluación de CI-CS que se examinará: «teniendo presente el primer vídeo, ¿qué nivel de gravedad ha alcanzado el rendimiento del paciente en las pruebas PC9O-MD o PM8M (ha mejorado o ha empeorado) en las 6 semanas, tal y como se observa en el segundo vídeo?».
    La idea es que los observadores a quienes se oculta la información alcancen por consenso un acuerdo en las puntuaciones de CI-CS. Si no se consigue este consenso, se tomará la puntuación media. Se deben documentar todos los desacuerdos.
    El análisis estadístico de este criterio de valoración utilizará una prueba t de Student de muestra única que compare el valor medio del criterio principal de valoración con cero. Este criterio de valoración permite que se mida el efecto de la N-acetil-L-leucina tanto en términos de mejora durante el tratamiento como de deterioro una vez se ha dejado el tratamiento.
    Además, las estadísticas de resumen se calcularán por separado según los subgrupos definidos por la prueba elegida como herramienta.

    Patients who have participated in the study will be offered the opportunity to participate in a planned rollover, open-label study if the safety and tolerability during the 6-week treatment are considered to be acceptable by the Investigator for each specific patient, and the Investigator determines further treatment with IB1001 to be in the patient’s interest. This rollover study will allow patients to have further access to IB1001 for one year.
    A los pacientes que hayan participado en el estudio se les ofrecerá la oportunidad de participar en un estudio de extensión abierto, si el investigador considera que la seguridad y la tolerabilidad durante el tratamiento de 6 semanas son aceptables para cada paciente específico, y el investigador determina que el tratamiento adicional con IB1001 es para el interés del paciente. Este estudio de extensión permitirá a los pacientes tener acceso a IB1001 durante un año.
