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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - To determine the long-term efficacy
    - To evaluate the immunogenicity (antidrug antibodies [ADA] against efgartigimod during the first 48 week treatment cycle [followed by a safety follow-up period, if applicable])
    - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of efgartigimod PH20 SC (during the first 48 week treatment cycle [followed by a safety follow-up period, if applicable])
    - To evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) effect of efgartigimod PH20 SC (ie, total immunoglobulin G [IgG] levels)
    - To evaluate additional patient-reported outcomes (PROs) (including patient-reported quality of life and satisfaction with treatment)
    - To explore self-administration of the treatment
    - To explore administration of the treatment by caregivers.

    Note that there are other objectives for patients with less frequent than weekly dosing of efgartigimod PH20 SC which are described in Section 11.9. of the protocol.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes

    Optional Dosing Frequency Substudy:
    The optional dosing frequency substudy offers patients who are stabilized on weekly dosing for at least 12 weeks the option to receive 2 less frequent efgartigimod dosing regimens sequentially (see separate protocol appendix for a dosing frequency substudy).
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Ability to understand the requirements of the trial, provide written informed consent (including consent for the use and disclosure of research-related health information), willingness and ability to comply with the trial protocol procedures (including required trial visits) of this trial.

    2. a. Male or female patient with 1 of the following options:
    - Have completed the Week-48 visit of Stage B of the ARGX-113-1802 trial and are considered to be eligible for treatment with efgartigimod PH20 SC; or
    - Have deteriorated during Stage B of the ARGX-113-1802 trial and are considered to be eligible for treatment with efgartigimod PH20 SC, or
    - Have been offered the participation in the OLE trial due to early termination of the ARGX-113-1802 trial (because sufficient events for the primary endpoint analysis of the that trial have been reached and it is stopped) and are considered to be eligible for treatment with efgartigimod PH20 SC treatment; or
    - Have completed the Week-48 visit of the previous cycle of the OLE trial and are considered to be eligible to continue with efgartigimod PH20 SC treatment.

    Optional Dosing Frequency Substudy: Note that after a minimum period of weekly dosing in this OLE trial, as specified in a separate protocol appendix for a dosing frequency substudy, patients who have a stable clinical condition for at least 12 weeks will be offered the option to receive less frequent dosing to evaluate the maintenance of the clinical condition by administration of efgartigimod PH20 SC 1000 mg at 2 lower dosing frequencies.

    3. Women of childbearing potential who have a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline before IMP administration.

    4. a. Women of childbearing potential must use an acceptable method of contraception from signing the ICF until the date of the last dose of IMP

    3. a. Patients with clinical evidence of other significant serious disease or patients who underwent a recent or have a planned major surgery, or patients who (intend to) use prohibited medications and therapies during the trial, or any other reason which could confound the results of the trial or put the patient at undue risk.
