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.

    3. Must have active disease at both screening and baseline, as defined by
    having both:
    a. =6/68 tender/painful joints (TJC), andb. =6/66 swollen joints (SJC).
    If surgical treatment of a joint has been performed, that joint cannot be
    counted in the TJC or SJC for enrolment purposes
    4. Must have a high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) measurement
    =3 mg/L at screening.
    5. Must meet Class I, II or III of the ACR 1991 Revised Criteria for Global
    Functional Status in RA (see SRM).
    6. Must have inadequate response despite currently taking at least one
    and at most two concomitant csDMARDs for at least 12 weeks prior to
    Day 1, from the following:
    a. Methotrexate (MTX): weekly 15-25 mg oral or injected, for at least 12
    weeks at the maximum tolerated dose prior to Day 1, with no change in
    route of administration in this time. A lower dose of =7.5 mg/week is
    acceptable if reduced for reasons of intolerance to MTX, e.g.
    nausea/vomiting, hepatic or hematologic toxicity, or per local
    requirement (there must be clear documentation in the medical record).
    Exception: A lower dose of 6 mg/week is allowed if the minimum locally
    approved or recommended dose is lower than 7.5 mg/week.
    b. Hydroxychloroquine up to 400 mg/day or chloroquine up to 250
    mg/day.
    c. Sulfasalazine up to 3000 mg/day.
    d. Leflunomide up to 20 mg/day. Note: concomitant use of leflunomide
    and methotrexate is not allowed, for safety reasons.
    e. Bucillamine up to 100 mg/day (or up to 300 mg/day if permitted per local requirements).
    f. Iguratimod up to 50 mg/day.
    g. Tacrolimus up to 3 mg/day.
    NOTE: The dose of csDMARD(s) must be stable and tolerated for at least
    8 weeks prior to Day 1 and should remain stable throughout the study
    from screening to end of treatment period, except adjustment for safety
    reasons.
    7. Must have inadequate response to at least one biologic DMARD at an
    approved dose and/or at least one JAK inhibitor (JAKi) at an approved
    dose. In both cases this may be with or without combination with a
    csDMARD. Prior bDMARD or JAKi therapy must be discontinued before
    randomisation.
    8. Body weight =40 kg
    9. Male or female participants are eligible to participate so long as they
    meet the contraceptive eligibility criteria and agree to abide by the
    contraceptive requirements.
    10. Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes
    compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed
    consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.
    11. For participants on MTX: must be willing to continue or initiate
    treatment at screening, with oral folic acid (at least 5 mg/week) or
    equivalent and be treated during the entire study (mandatory comedication
    for MTX treatment).
    1. Età =18 anni al momento della firma del consenso informato.
    2. Il soggetto soddisfa i Criteri di classificazione dell’AR stabiliti dall’American College of Rheumatology (ACR [Collegio americano di reumatologia])/dalla European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR [Lega europea contro i reumatismi]) nel 2010 (vedere il Manuale di riferimento dello studio [SRM]), con una durata della malattia da AR =6 mesi al momento dello screening, e non ha ricevuto la diagnosi prima dei 16 anni di età.

    b. conta delle articolazioni tumefatte (SJC) =6/66.
    Qualora un’articolazione sia stata sottoposta a un trattamento chirurgico, quell’articolazione non può essere conteggiata nella TJC o SJC ai fini dell’arruolamento
    4. Il soggetto deve avere livelli di proteina C-reattiva ad alta sensibilità (hsCRP) che misurano =3 mg/l allo screening.
    5. Deve rientrare nella Classe I, II o III secondo i Criteri ACR 1991 aggiornati per lo stato funzionale globale nell’AR (vedere SRM).
