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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    - Valutare il potenziale dei pazienti trattati con Fasenra®di mantenere la funzionalità polmonare mentre riducono gradualmente il trattamento di mantenimento con Symbicort®
    - Valutare la frequenza delle esacerbazioni asmatiche

    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives

    Other types of substudies
    Specify title, date and version of each substudy with relative 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)

    Altre tipologie di sottostudi
    specificare il titolo, la data e la versione di ogni sottostudio con i relativi obiettivi: Sottostudio di biomarker

    Ad un gruppo di pazienti che daranno il consenso alla partecipazione al sottostudio (saranno inclusi circa 32 pazienti, provenienti dai 2 bracci di trattamento) sarà fatta una broncoscopia e un campionamento con nasosorption a tempistiche specifiche per la ricerca esplorativa di biomarker. I pazienti saranno arruolati da un centro dello studio nel Regno Unito e saranno stratificati separatamente dallo studio principale con un rapporto 3:1 sul braccio di trattamento (braccio di riduzione del trattamento:braccio di riferimento).

    Obiettivo: caratterizzare gli effetti di Fasenra® sull'infiammazione delle vie aeree dopo riduzione della terapia giornaliera con Symbicort® (sottostudio)

    6 Male or female
    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

    - 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 Fornitura del consenso informato prima di qualsiasi procedura specifica dello studio
    2 Età del paziente pari o superiore a 18 anni al momento del consenso alla partecipazione allo studio
    3 Attuale trattamento di mantenimento documentato con ICS/LABA a dose elevata
    4 ACQ-5 < 1,5 alla Visita 1
    5 Trattamento con Fasenra® per la diagnosi indicata di asma eosinofila grave e assunzione di almeno 3 dosi consecutive (> 8 settimane) prima della Visita 1
    6 Sesso maschile o femminile
    7 Test di gravidanza su siero negativo alla Visita 1 per donne in età fertile (WOCBP)
    8 Le WOCBP devono accettare di utilizzare un metodo contraccettivo altamente efficace (confermato dallo sperimentatore) dalla randomizzazione per tutta la durata dello studio ed entro le 16 settimane successive all’ultima dose di trattamento dello studio. Forme di contraccezione altamente efficaci includono:
    - Contraccezione ormonale combinata (a base di estrogeni e progestinici) associata a inibizione dell’ovulazione - orale, intravaginale o transdermica
    - Contraccezione ormonale a base di solo progestinico associata a inibizione dell’ovulazione - orale, iniettabile o impiantabile
    - Dispositivo intrauterino (IUD)
    - Sistema di rilascio ormonale intrauterino (IUS)
    - Occlusione bilaterale delle tube
    - Astinenza sessuale, ovvero astenersi dai rapporti eterosessuali (l’affidabilità dell’astinenza sessuale deve essere valutata in relazione alla durata dello studio clinico e allo stile di vita desiderato e abituale del paziente)
    - Partner sessuale vasectomizzato (a condizione che il partner sia l’unico partner sessuale della paziente WOCBP dello studio e che il partner vasectomizzato abbia ricevuto una valutazione medica del successo chirurgico)
    Per donne non in età fertile si intendono donne permanentemente sterilizzate (mediante isterectomia, ooforectomia bilaterale o salpingectomia bilaterale) o in postmenopausa. Le donne saranno considerate in post-menopausa se amenorroiche per >= 12 mesi prima della data prevista per la randomizzazione senza una causa medica alternativa.
    Si applicano i seguenti requisiti specifici per l’età:
    - Le donne di età < 50 anni saranno considerate essere in post-menopausa se amenorroiche per almeno 12 mesi dopo la cessazione del trattamento ormonale esogeno e presentano livelli di ormone follicolo stimolante (FSH) che rientrano nell’intervallo post-menopausale. Finché non si documentano dei livelli di FSH o ormone luteinizzante entro l’intervallo menopausale, trattare la paziente come WOCBP
    - Le donne di età >= 50 anni saranno considerate essere in post-menopausa se amenorroiche per almeno 12 mesi dopo la cessazione dell’intero trattamento ormonale esogeno
