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   44189   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7329   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.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Sub-study biomarkers

    A subset of patients who consent to participation in the sub-study (approximately 32 patients are to be included, spread across the 2 treatment arms) will undergo bronchoscopy and nasosorption sampling at specific timepoints for exploratory biomarker research. Patients will be enrolled from 1 study site in the UK and will be stratified separately from the main study with a 3:1 ratio by treatment arm (treatment reduction arm: reference arm)

    Objective: To characterise the effects of Fasenra® on airway inflammation after reducing daily Symbicort® therapy (sub-study)
    Sous-étude

    Un sous-ensemble de patients acceptant de participer à la sous-étude (environ 32 patients doivent être inclus, répartis à travers les 2 bras de traitement) fera l’objet d’une bronchoscopie et d'un prélèvement par nasosorption à des moments spécifiques pour la recherche exploratoire sur les biomarqueurs. Les patients seront recrutés dans 1 centre d'étude au Royaume-Uni et ils seront stratifiés séparément de l’étude principale selon un rapport 3/1 par bras de traitement (bras de réduction du traitement/bras de référence).

    Objectif: Caractériser les effets de Fasenra® sur l’inflammation des voies aériennes après la réduction du traitement quotidien par Symbicort®
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria

    7 Negative serum pregnancy test at Visit 1 for women of childbearing potential (WOCBP)
    8 WOCBP must agree to use a highly effective method of birth control (confirmed by the Investigator) from randomisation throughout the study duration and within 16 weeks after the last dose of study treatment. Highly effective forms of birth control include:
    - Combined (oestrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation-oral, intravaginal, or transdermal
    - Progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation-oral, injectable, or implantable
    - Intrauterine device (IUD)
    - Intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
    - Bilateral tubal occlusion
    - Sexual abstinence, ie, refraining from heterosexual intercourse (the reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical study and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient)
    - Vasectomised sexual partner (provided that partner is the sole sexual partner of the WOCBP study patient and that the vasectomised partner has received medical assessment of the surgical success)
    Women not of childbearing potential are defined as women who are either permanently sterilized (hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral salpingectomy), or who are postmenopausal Women will be considered postmenopausal if they have been amenorrhoeic for ≥12 months prior to the planned date of randomisation without an alternative medical cause.
    The following age-specific requirements apply:
    - Women <50 years old will be considered postmenopausal if they have been amenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal treatment and have follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the postmenopausal range. Until FSH or luteinizing hormone is documented to be within menopausal range, treat the patient as WOCBP
    - Women ≥50 years old will be considered postmenopausal if they have been amenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatment
    1 Fourniture du consentement éclairé avant toute activité spécifique de l'étude
    2 Les patients doivent être âgés de 18 ans ou plus au moment de la fourniture de leur consentement pour la participation à l'étude

Les formes de contraception hautement efficaces incluent :
    • Contraception hormonale combinée (contenant un estrogène et un progestatif) associée à une inhibition de l’ovulation, orale, intravaginale ou transdermique.
    • Contraception hormonale à base de progestatif uniquement, associée à une inhibition de l’ovulation, orale, injectable ou implantable.
    • Dispositif intra-utérin (DIU).
    • Système intra-utérin (SIU) libérant des hormones.
    • Ligature bilatérale des trompes.
    • Abstinence sexuelle, c’est-à-dire absence de rapports hétérosexuels (la fiabilité de l’abstinence sexuelle doit être évaluée en tenant compte de la durée de l’essai clinique et du mode de vie préféré et habituel du patient).
    • Partenaire sexuel vasectomisé (à condition que cet homme soit le seul partenaire sexuel de la participante en âge de procréer et que la réussite de sa vasectomie ait fait l’objet d’une évaluation médicale).
    Les femmes non en âge de procréer sont définies comme des femmes ayant fait l’objet d’une stérilisation définitive (hystérectomie, ovariectomie bilatérale ou salpingectomie bilatérale)
    ou qui sont ménopausées. Les femmes seront considérées comme ménopausées en cas
    d’aménorrhée ≥ 12 mois avant la date prévue de randomisation, sans autre cause médicale.

Jusqu'à ce qu’il soit documenté que le taux de FSH ou d’hormone lutéinisante se situe dans la plage compatible avec une ménopause, la patiente doit être traitée comme si elle était en âge de procréer.
    • Les femmes ≥50 ans seront considérées comme ménopausées en cas d’aménorrhée ≥ 12 mois après l'arrêt de tout traitement hormonal exogène.
