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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    Primary • To evaluate the safety of mexiletine in adolescents (aged 12 to <18 years) and children (aged 6 to <12 years) for the treatment of myotonia • To evaluate the efficacy of mexiletine for the treatment of myotonia Secondary Secondary • To evaluate the efficacy of mexiletine for the treatment of myotonia as assessed by patient-reported outcomes • To evaluate efficacy and tolerability of mexiletine as measured by Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scale indices • To determine changes in health-related quality-of-life as measured by the PedsQL Quality of Life and Neuromuscular module. • To determine the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of mexiletine in children (6 to <12 years) and adolescents (aged 12 to <18 years) • To assess the acceptability of the capsule formulation. • Palatability of alternative administration (capsule content with milk/juice or sprinkled on food) by 5-point facial hedonic
    Protection of trial subjects
    The nature and purpose of the study was fully explained to each patient (or their legally responsible guardian). Before each patient was enrolled into the study, informed consent was obtained from the patient (or his/ her legally authorized representative) according to the most current applicable regulatory and legal requirements. The consent was obtained on the IEC approved and most recent version of consent form in language best comprehended by the patient. This study was conducted in compliance with the protocol and with the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH), the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki (2013) and in compliance to the specific local regulatory requirements wherever applicable and required. The study was conducted according to Good Clinical Practice (GCP) principles as required by Directive 2001/20/EC, as amended.

An AE can, therefore, be any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom or disease (including intercurrent illness), deterioration of a pre-existing illness, accident, any suspected drug reaction, or a clinically relevant change of laboratory values temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigation) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product and/ or study treatment.

    End point description
    PK population. Cmax-ss (peak concentrations during the dosing interval at steady-state) and AUC0-tau (area under the concentration time curve for one dosing interval at steady-state) are determined in µg/L. If mean is equal to 0, it means results were not evaluable. The average artithmetic is presented. Results are presented by total daily dose : - 186 (62 mg 1 capsule 3 times per day) - 248 (2 capsules of 62 mg twice a day ) - 249 (83 mg 1 capsule 3 times per day) - 334 (167 mg 1 capsule twice a day) - 372 (2 capsules of 62 mg 3 times a day) - 501 (167 mg 1 capsule 3 times per day)
