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   44241   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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
    Will treating post-transplant patients with glucokinase activator (AZD1656) compared to placebo for 3 months improve the function of their transplant kidney via a change in the levels of immune cells (regulatory T cells)? We will measure this by measuring the number of regulatory T cells in blood samples taken from the patients.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    We will also be assessing whether the regulatory T cells leave the circulation and migrate to the transplant kidney by looking for them with a histological stain in the two biopsies which are routinely taken as part of standard of care: at time of implantation and at 3 months.

    We will be assessing the transplant function by monitoring the incidence of delayed graft function (defined as the need for dialysis within the first week post-transplant) and by measuring eGFR (a measure of kidney function) at 3 months.

    As glucokinase activators have also been shown to have a (transient) effect on lowering blood sugars, we will be investigating the effect of AZD1656 on the glycaemic control of participants by assessing:
    a) HbA1c monitoring between baseline and 3 months
    b) the dose of any other anti-diabetic medication required between baseline and 3 months
    c) insulin resistance by performing a homeostatic measurement at 3 months
    d) the number of any hypoglycaemic episodes

    We will also monit
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    a) Females or males aged 18 years and above
    b) Having undergone renal transplantation at the Royal London Hospital within the previous 24 hours
    c) A pre-transplant diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes
    d) Provision of written, informed consent prior to any study specific procedures
    e) In women of childbearing potential* documentation of a negative pregnancy test during admission for renal transplant.
    *Women of childbearing potential are defined as women following menarche until becoming post-menopausal, unless permanently sterile. Permanent sterilisation methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral oophorectomy. A post-menopausal state is defined as the absence of menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    a) Unable to consent
    b) Known allergy/intolerance to AZD1656
    c) Pregnant or breastfeeding women
    d) Planning on becoming pregnant/unwilling to use highly effective contraception* during the 3 month treatment period and for 2 weeks afterwards
    a. In the case of men with sexual partners who are women of childbearing potential: refusal to wear a condom and female partner planning on becoming pregnant/unwilling to use highly effective contraception* during the 3 month treatment period and for 2 weeks afterwards
    e) Clinically significant history of abnormal physical and/or mental health as judged by the investigator other than conditions related to chronic kidney disease
    f) Current or planned use of strong inhibitors of CYP2C8
    g) Participation in an investigational drug trial in the 3 months prior to administration of the initial dose of study drug

    *Highly effective contraception methods are defined as those that can achieve a failure rate of <1% per year when used correctly and consistently. These include:
    • Combined (oestrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation – either oral, transvaginal or transdermal
    • Progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation – either oral, injectable or implantable
    • Intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
    • Bilateral tubal occlusion
    • Vasectomised partner – provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner of the participant and that the vasectomised partner has received medical assessment of surgical success
    • Sexual abstinence – refrain from heterosexual intercourse for the duration of period defined to be at risk
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary end point is the change in mean peripheral Treg cell number between baseline and 3 months post-transplant as measured using flow cytometry analysis (FACS) between patients receiving AZD1656 and placebo.
    This will be analysed during the first data analysis (see below).
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Time point of primary end point is at 3 months post-transplant.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    1) Histological staining for T-reg cells in renal biopsy tissue between baseline and 3 month protocol biopsy
    2) Incidence of delayed graft function, defined as the need for dialysis within 1 week post-transplant
    3) Diabetic control between baseline and month 3 using change in HbA1c measurement
    4) Dose of other antidiabetic medication between baseline and month 3 (descriptive)
    5) Safety endpoints: i.e. number of hypoglycaemic episodes (descriptive)
    6) Insulin resistance: HOMA IR measurement at month 3
    7) Graft function: (eGFR) at month 3
    8) Episodes of acute rejection (defined as biopsy proven acute rejection)
    9) Episodes of opportunistic infections: bacterial and viral (descriptive)
    10) 12-month graft function (eGFR) and diabetic control (HbA1c) to assess legacy effect
    11) Differences in other peripheral T cell populations, measured by FACS analysis
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Secondary end-point assessment will take place during study visits at recruitment, and weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 14 post-transplant. There will be a further assessment at 1 year post-transplant (9 months post-completion of study drug).
