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   43870   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7289   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 identify a dose of gadoquatrane for further development that has an overall diagnostic preference rate similar to that of the comparator gadobutrol at 5 min post injection.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The conduct of this clinical study met all local legal and regulatory requirements. The study was conducted in accordance with ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Council for Harmonization guideline E6: Good Clinical Practice. Before entering the study, the informed consent was read by and explained to all the subjects. Participating subjects signed informed consent form and could withdraw from the study at any time without any disadvantage and without having to provide a reason for this decision. Only investigators qualified by training and experience were selected as appropriate experts to investigate the study drug.

    Overall diagnostic preference [1]
    End point description
    Overall diagnostic preference using a matched pairs approach was evaluated by 3 blinded readers using an ordinal 5-point scale (greatly prefer gadoquatrane, prefer gadoquatrane, no preference, prefer gadobutrol, greatly prefer gadobutrol). Percentage of participants and the respective Wald confidence intervals (CI) for image preference were reported for each of the 3 readers based on the 3-point preference scale (1=greatly prefer/prefer gadoquatrane, 0=no preference, -1=greatly prefer/prefer gadobutrol). If 2 or 3 readers reach the same conclusion on the recommended action (e.g. no dose adjustment needed), then this will be the recommended action taken.

    Sum of lesion visualization parameters on post-contrast images
    End point description
    The 3 lesion visualization parameters (border delineation/degree of contrast enhancement/internal morphology) were combined by adding them up for each participant and each blinded reader, leading to only one variable on an ordinal 11-point scale (the higher values represent a better lesion visualization). Average reader was the mean of the 3 blinded readers averages of the scores per participant. Lesion border delineation: measured on a 4-point scale (1=None [no/unclear delineation of the lesion boundaries] to 4=Excellent [clear and complete delineation]). Degree of lesion contrast enhancement: measured on a 4-point scale (1=No [lesion is not enhanced] to 4=Excellent [lesion is clearly and brightly enhanced]). Lesion internal morphology: measured on a 3-point scale (1=Poor [structure and internal morphology of the lesion is poorly visible] to 3=Good [structure and internal morphology of the lesion is sufficiently visible]).

    The non-inferiority of gadoquatrane versus gadobutrol was evaluated using CIs based on the t-distribution. A non-inferiority margin of 1 was used, i.e. meaning that a 95% two-sided CI for the mean difference gadoquatrane minus gadobutrol score must exclude the value -1. Number of subjects in this analysis is 49.

    Degree of lesion contrast enhancement: up to the 5 largest lesions were selected and scored using a 4-point scale (1=No [lesion is not enhanced] to 4=Excellent [lesion is clearly and brightly enhanced]; the higher values represent a better degree of lesion contrast enhancement). Average reader was the mean of the 3 blinded readers averages of the scores per participant.

    Lesion visualization parameter internal morphology on pre-contrast and combined pre- and post-contrast images
    End point description
    Lesion internal morphology: up to 5 of the largest lesions were selected and scored using a 3-point scale (1=Poor [structure and internal morphology of the lesion is poorly visible] to 3=Good [structure and internal morphology of the lesion is sufficiently visible]; the higher values represent a better lesion internal morphology).
