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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main objective of the trial was to assess (in a limited number of countries) the long-term safety and tolerability of paliperidone palmitate 6-month (PP6M; 700 or 1000 milligrams equivalent [mg eq.]) and to provide access to PP6M in subjects with schizophrenia who completed study R092670PSY3015 (2017-001941-28) without relapse.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practices and applicable regulatory requirements.

    Number of Subjects With Relapse [1]
    End point description
    Number of subjects with relapse were reported. Relapse is defined as one or more of the following: a) Psychiatric hospitalization for schizophrenia (involuntary or voluntary admission to a psychiatric hospital for decompensation of the subject’s schizophrenic symptoms); b) Emergency Department/Room/Ward visit due to a worsening of the subject’s symptoms of schizophrenia, but a psychiatric hospitalization does not occur; c) The subject inflicts deliberate self-injury or exhibits violent behaviour resulting in suicide, clinically significant injury to him/herself or another person, or significant property damage; d) The subject has suicidal or homicidal ideation and aggressive behaviour that is clinically significant (in frequency and severity) in the investigator’s judgment. The intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study drug in this study.

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/ biological agent under study. TEAEs are those events if they started after administration of the first dose and until 183 days after the last dose of study medication.

    Change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) Scale Score
    End point description
    Change from baseline in CGI-S scale score was reported. CGI-S is defined as clinician-rated scale that assesses the severity of mental illness on a scale of 0 to 7. Considering total clinical experience, a subject was assessed on severity of mental illness at the time of rating according to:1: normal, not at all ill; 2: borderline mentally ill; 3: mildly ill; 4: moderately ill; 5: markedly ill; 6: severely ill; 7: among the most extremely ill subjects. A higher score implies a more severe condition. The ITT analysis population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study drug in this study. Here, 'N' (number of subjects analysed) signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint.

    End point title
    Change from Baseline in Personal and Social Performance (PSP) Scale Score
    End point description
    Change from baseline in PSP scale score was reported. The PSP scale assesses degree of a subject's dysfunction within 4 domains of behavior: 1) socially useful activities, 2) personal and social relationships, 3) self-care, and 4) disturbing and aggressive behavior. Each domain was assessed on a 6-point scale, from 1 (absent) to 6 (very severe) (1 = absent, 2 = mild, 3 = manifest, 4 = marked, 5 = severe, and 6 = very severe). PSP total score was calculated as sum of all the domain scores and ranges from 1 to 100. Subjects with score of 71 to 100 had mild degree of difficulty; from 31 to 70, varying degrees of disability; less than or equal to 30, functioning so poorly as to require intensive supervision. Higher score indicates better performance. The ITT analysis population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study drug in this study. Here, 'N' (number of subjects analysed) signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint.

    Change from baseline in PANSS total score were reported. The neuropsychiatric symptoms of schizophrenia were assessed using the 30-item PANSS scale, which provides a total score (sum of the scores for all 30 items) and scores for 3 subscales: the 7-item positive-symptom (P) subscale, the 7-item negative-symptom (N) subscale, and the 16-item general-psychopathology symptom (G) subscale. Each item is rated on a scale of 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme). The PANSS total score ranges from 30 (absent disease)-210 (more severe neuropsychiatric symptoms of schizophrenia). The ITT analysis population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study drug in this study. Here, 'N' (number of subjects analysed) signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Dec 2020
    The overall rational of this amendment was to remove text related to anticipated events which do not apply in single arm open-label extension study and to increase the estimated number of subjects to be enrolled in the study for multiple reasons relating to preceding double-blind study.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    The sponsor identified that the study did not include a control arm reference group. The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic placed some restrictions on study face-to-face visits.
