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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary endpoint of this trial is to determine whether the treatment with a new therapeutic strategy (Evolocumab + Ezetimibe) is non-inferior to Ezetimibe alone, in reducing the LDL-C percentage from baseline to week 24, considering an ITT approach, in high cardiovascular risk statin-intolerant patients with hypercholesterolemia and ESRD, receiving maintenance haemodialysis.
    L'obiettivo primario di questo studio è determinare se il trattamento con una nuova strategia terapeutica che prevede l’aggiunta di Evolocumaballa terapia standard a base di Ezetimibe non sia inferiore al solo trattamento standard (Ezetimibe)nel ridurre la percentuale di colesterolo LDL dal basale T0 alla settimana 24 (T24), considerando un approccio ITT, in pazienti con altro rischio cardiovascolare, intolleranti alle statine, con ipercolesterolemia ed insufficienza renale e sottoposti a emodialisi di mantenimento.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To assess whether the new treatment with Evolocumab+Ezetimibe is non-inferior to usual therapy with Ezetimibe alone in terms of LDL-C reduction, comparing baseline measures versus 4, 12, 24 weeks measures;
    To evaluate the changes of other lipid parameters (HDL cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol, triglycerides) from baseline to week 24 (ITT/on-treatment analysis);
    To evaluate the percentage of patients that reach the LDL-C < 70 mg/dL target at week 24 (ITT/on-treatment analysis);
    To evaluate the tolerability of Evolocumab, analyzing adverse events reports and laboratory values from the time of signed informed consent until the end of the study, and the hemodynamic stability during haemodialysis.
    Valutare se l’aggiunta di Evolocumabal trattamento standard di Ezetimibe sia non inferiore alla normale terapia con il solo Ezetimibe in termini di riduzione del colesterolo LDL, confrontando le misure di riferimento (baseline – T0) rispetto alle misure prese a 4, 12, 24
    settimane.
    Valutare i cambiamenti di altri parametri lipidici (colesterolo HDL, colesterolo non HDL,
    trigliceridi) dal basale alla settimana 24;
    Valutare la percentuale di pazienti che raggiungono l'obiettivo LDL-C<70 mg/dL alla
    settimana 24.
    Valutare la tollerabilità di Evolocumab, in aggiunta alla terapia standard, analizzando il
    profilo di sicurezza tramite l’analisi degli eventi avversi edei valori di laboratorio, nonché
    della stabilità emodinamica durante l'emodialisi, durante tutta la durata dello studio.

    - Riduzione del valore di LDL-C, confrontando le misure basali rispetto alle misure a 4, 12, 24
    settimane, confrontando il nuovo trattamento con Evolocumab +Ezetimibe rispetto a
    Ezetimibe+ Placebo;
    - Cambiamenti su altri parametri lipidici (colesterolo HDL, colesterolo non HDL, trigliceridi)
    dal basale alla settimana 24 (analisi ITT/OT);
    - Percentuale di pazienti che raggiungono il target LDL-C<70 mg/dL alla settimana 24 (analisi
    ITT/OT).
