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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 ).

    Absolute Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) Score at Week 24 [1]
    End point description
    PASI was a combination of the intensity of psoriasis, assessed by the erythema (reddening), induration (plaque thickness) and scaling on a scale range from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (very marked), together with the percentage (%) of the area affected, rated on a scale from 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%). PASI scoring was performed at four body areas, the head, arms, trunk, and legs. The PASI score ranged from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (the most severe disease). Intent-to-treat (ITT) population included all subjects who received at least one dose of the study medication and had atleast one baseline efficacy/Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scores. Here 'Number of subjects analysed' signifies subjects who were evaluable for the endpoint.

    Absolute Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) Score at Week 24 [3]
    End point description
    DLQI questionnaire was used to evaluate the impact on subject’s quality of life due to psoriasis. It was composed of ten items related to symptoms, feelings, daily activities, leisure, working or studying activities, personal relationships and opinions about dermatological treatment. Each item was scored from 0 (not affected at all) to 3 (very much affected). The DLQI score was the sum of the 10 individual question scores and ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating better quality of life. Response categories included "Not at all," "A little," "A lot," and "Very much," with corresponding scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3 respectively. Higher score indicated impaired quality of life. ITT population included all subjects who received at least one dose of the study medication and had at least one baseline efficacy/HRQoL scores.

Scores from all 10 questions added up to give DLQI total score range from 0 (not at all) to 30 (very much). Higher scores indicated more impact on quality of life of subjects.

    End point description
    PASI was a combination of the intensity of psoriasis, assessed by the erythema (reddening), induration (plaque thickness)and scaling on a scale range from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (very marked), together with the percentage of the area affected, rated on a scale from 0 (0%) to 6 (90-100%). PASI scoring was performed at four body areas, the head, arms, trunk, and legs. The PASI score ranged from 0 (no psoriasis) to 72 (the most severe disease). ITT population included all subjects who received at least one dose of the study medication and had at least one baseline efficacy/HRQoL scores. Here 'Number of subjects analysed' signifies subjects who were evaluable for the endpoint and 'n' signifies number of subjects with available data at specified time-points.

Each question asked the subject to quantify how much a specific aspect of their skin condition bothered them in the week prior to administration of the Skindex-16. The questions were answered on a scale from 0 (never bothered) to 6 (always bothered) with a total possible score ranging from 0 (best HRQoL) to 96 (worst HRQoL).

    Absolute Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI) Score at Week 24
    End point description
    The WPAI questionnaire was used to measure impairments in both paid work and unpaid work. The WPAI questionnaire consists of 6 questions that were used to assess: 1-employment status (yes/no), 2-work time missed due to Psoriasis (hours), 3-work time missed due to other reasons (hours), 4-actual work time (hours), 5-impact of Psoriasis on work productivity while at work (0-10 point scale), and 6-the impact of Psoriasis on activities outside of work (0-10 point scale) for the 7 days prior to questionnaire completion. Four scores were derived from the questions: percent absenteeism(work time missed), percent presenteeism (impairment at work), percent work productivity loss (overall work impairment due to absenteeism and presenteeism), and percent activity impairment (activities performed outside of work). Higher scores indicated a higher level of impairment. ITT population was used. 'Number of subjects analysed'=subjects evaluable for endpoint, 'n'=subjects assessed for given categories.

    Absolute Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) Score at Week 24
    End point description
    TSQM was a 14-item self-reported generic instrument designed to measure subject satisfaction with medication treatment. The 4 scales of TSQM included Effectiveness subscale, Side Effects subscale (items 4-8), Convenience subscale (items 9-11), Global Satisfaction subscale (items 12-14). Last subscale was regarded both in concept and in research as a superordinate, second-order global factor encompassing other 3 more specific domains of medication experiences. Responses were obtained on 5-point or a 7-point Likert scale (range, 1 extremely dissatisfied to 7 extremely satisfied) for all but 1 item that has a yes-no response option. Subscale scores were transformed into scores ranging from 0-100, higher scores represented higher satisfaction on that domain. Regarding Side Effects subscale, when subject answered no'' to experiencing side effects (item 4), this subscale is scored as 100. ITT population. 'Number of subjects analysed'=subjects evaluable; n=subjects assessed for categories.

    Percentage of Subjects who Achieved a Score Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 1 in the Absolute Patient Benefit Index (PBI) Score at Week 24.
    End point description
    PBI was a questionnaire of 23 items on subject-relevant therapy needs and benefits. First part of the instrument, subject Needs Questionnaire (PNQ), was filled in by the subject before therapy. Five-step Likert scale (0 =not important at all to 4=very important) recorded the individual relevance of the different items to the participant. The second part, PBQ, was filled in by subjects during or after therapy. It comprised of the same items as the PNQ, but in contrast, subjects evaluated the extent to which the treatment needs have been fulfilled by therapy (scaled from 0=treatment did not help at all to 4=treatment helped a lot). In addition, the Likert scale contained the option does not apply to me in the PNQ and the option did not apply to me in the PBQ. This questionnaire score ranged from 0 =no benefit to 4=maximal benefit. A PBI value of >=1 is considered as relevant benefit. ITT population was assessed. 'Number of subjects analysed' signifies subjects evaluable for endpoint.
