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   43866   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7287   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess the effects of patiromer on serum potassium (K+) in heart failure (HF) participants compared with placebo.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki including amendments in force up to and including the time the study was conducted. The study was conducted in compliance with the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) E6 Guideline for Good Clinical Practice (GCP), Committee for Proprietary Medicinal Products Guideline (CPMP/ICH/135/95), compliant with the EU Clinical Trial Directive (Directive 2001/20/EC) and/or the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) for informed consent and protection of subject rights (21 CFR, Parts 50 and 56), and in accordance with United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. Prior to initiation of the study, the protocol, the subject information sheet, and the informed consent form (ICF) were reviewed and approved by Independent Ethics Committees (IECs) or Institutional Review Boards (IRBs), operating in accord with current regulations.
    Background therapy
    Subjects receiving angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) medications for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). During the Treatment Phase, subjects randomized to either patiromer or placebo continued the doses of RAASi medications optimized at the end of the Run-in Phase.

    Screening details
    From a total of 1642 subjects screened, 1195 of these subjects entered Run-in Phase.A total of 1168 subjects received patiromer during Run-in Phase, and 878 of these subjects were randomized to receive patiromer or placebo during the Treatment Phase.

    The same number of packets as established for patiromer at the end of the Run-in Phase but were to be up- or down-titrated depending on local serum K+ levels. During the Run-in Phase, patiromer was to be taken at a starting oral dose of 1 packet/day (8.4 g/day) either with or without food. Based upon the K+ management algorithms, patiromer was to be increased by 1 packet per day in intervals of at least 1 week (±3 days). If hypokalemia developed during the Treatment Phase, then the study drug was to be down-titrated (lowest acceptable dose was 0 packets/day) until local serum K+ ≥4.0 mEq/l. Doses of patiromer were 0 packets/day, 1 packet/day, 2 packets/day, and 3 packets/day (maximum dose).

    Subject analysis set description
    All subjects randomized to patiromer or placebo arm. As adviced in the EudraCT Q&A, in order to report a statistical analysis related to a specific endpoint it is required to define at least two comparison groups. For the secondary endpoints Hyperkalemia-related Hard Outcomes Endpoints & RAASi Use Score there were no comparison groups since the results were reported for all subjects (N=878). Due to this fact, a workaround needs to be performed for reporting their statistical analyses. It is adviced to create an additional “Subject analysis set” and then select both comparison groups in each “Endpoint definition” section.

    Win ratio for composite
    Statistical analysis description
    Subjects analyzed n=1756 refers to the sum of the two comparison groups below. Win ratio approach: Patients in the new treatment and control groups are formed into matched pairs based on their risk profiles. For each matched pair, the new treatment patient is labelled winner/losser depending on CV/hyperkalemia event first. The win ratio is the total number of winners divided by the total numbers of losers. Unmatched win ratio is presented for this endpoint. Win ratio above 1 favors patiromer.

    RAASi Use Score
    End point description
    RAASi use score (0 to 8 points) analyzed using the Win Ratio approach for each pair of subjects with the following additive components: 1. All-cause death 2. Occurrence of a CV hospitalization 3. HF medication use and dose for i) an ACEi/ARB/ARNi, ii) a MRA, and iii) a beta-blocker Each subject in each comparison can have 0-8 points and all subjects are compared using this score at the respective appropriate follow-up time point. RAASi = renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor; ACE=angiotensin converting enzyme; ARB=angiotensin receptor blocker; ARNi=angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitor; MRA=mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist.
