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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Oral Edaravone in subjects with ALS over 24 and 48 weeks.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, Good Clinical Practice as required by the International Conference on Harmonization guidelines, applicable regional and local legislation, and standard operating procedures in place at Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma America Inc and at the contracted vendor. All participants underwent screening aimed at minimizing the likelihood and impact of potential risks of MT-1186. In addition, regular safety monitoring during the study period for all participants ensured that any unanticipated effects of study participation were identified promptly and managed appropriately. Risk minimization measures were also employed during the study as per the risk-benefit assessment for potential anticipated risks. A participant was to be withdrawn from the study if ANY of the protocol specific withdrawal criteria were met including voluntary wish of participant to withdraw from further participation

    Dosage and administration details
    MT-1186 oral suspension (21 mg/mL) in amber multi-use bottles, adapters, and oral syringes were provided for each subject, for the duration of their participation in the study. Suspension bottles contained approximately 735 mg of MT-1186 in 35 mL for the first cycle and approximately 1050 mg of MT-1186 in 50 mL for Cycles 2 through 12. All subjects enrolled received the following dose regimen: * An initial treatment cycle with daily dosing for 14 days, followed by a 14-day drug-free period. * Subsequent treatment cycles with daily dosing for 10 days out of 14-day periods, followed by 14-day drug-free periods. Treatment cycles were every 4 weeks. The dose of MT-1186 was taken after an overnight fast and subjects continued to fast at least 1 to 2 hours postdose before the next meal (eg, breakfast)
