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 ).

    End point description
    The severity of itch (pruritus) due to AD was assessed using the PP-NRS, a validated horizontal NRS. Subjects were asked to assess their worst itching due to AD over the past 24 hours on an NRS with scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0= no itch and 10= worst itch imaginable. Higher scores indicated worse itch. Full Analysis Set (FAS) comprised of all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention.

    End point description
    Severity of clinical signs of AD lesions (erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation and lichenification) were scored separately for each of 4 body regions (head and neck, upper limbs, trunk) and lower limbs) on a 4-point scale: 0= absent; 1= mild; 2= moderate; 3= severe. EASI area score=% BSA with AD in body region: 0 (0%), 1 (>0 to <10%), 2 (10 to <30%), 3 (30 to <50%), 4 (50 to <70%), 5 (70 to <90%) and 6 (90 to 100%). Total EASI score =0.1*Ah*(Eh+Ih+Exh+Lh) + 0.2*Au*(Eu+Iu+ExU+Lu) + 0.3*At*(Et+It+Ext+Lt) + 0.4*Al*(El+Il+Exl+Ll); A = EASI area score; E = erythema; I = induration/papulation; Ex = excoriation; L = lichenification; h = head and neck; u = upper limbs; t = trunk; l = lower limbs. Total EASI score ranged from 0.0 to 72.0, with higher scores indicating greater severity of AD. FAS comprised of all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention. Here, 'n' signifies participants evaluable for the specified time points.

    End point description
    Extent (%) of body region involvement with AD was determined using handprint method. Number of handprints (size of subject's hand with fingers in a closed position) fitting in affected area of a body region was estimated. 4 body regions were evaluated: head and neck, upper limbs, trunk (including axillae and groin/genitals) and lower limbs (including buttocks). Total number of handprints=10 for head and neck, 20 for upper limbs, 30 for trunk and 40 for lower limbs. Surface area of body region equivalent to 1 handprint: 1 handprint =10% for head and neck, 5% for upper limbs, 3.33% for trunk and 2.5% for lower limbs. Percent BSA for a body region= total number of handprints in a body region * % surface area equivalent to 1 handprint. Overall % BSA for an individual was derived as sum of % BSA across all 4 body regions and ranged from 0 to 100%, with higher values representing greater severity of AD. FAS=all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention.

    End point description
    SCORAD=scoring index for AD combining extent (A), severity (B) and subjective symptoms (C). For A, rule of 9 used to calculate BSA affected by AD as % of whole BSA for each body region- head and neck 9%; upper limbs 9% each; lower limbs 18% each; anterior trunk 18%; back 18%; genitals 1%. Score of each body region added to determine A (range: 0-100). B: severity of each sign (erythema; edema/papulation; oozing/crusting; excoriation; skin thickening; dryness) was assessed as none (0), mild (1), moderate (2), severe (3); severity scores were added to give B (range: 0-18). C: pruritus and sleep loss, each scored by subject/caregiver using visual analog scale (VAS) where, 0=no itch/no sleep loss and 10=worst imaginable itch/sleep loss, higher scores=worse symptoms. Scores for itch and sleep loss were added to give 'C' (range: 0-20). SCORAD total score =A/5+7*B/2+C; range (0-103);higher values=worse outcome. FAS=all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention.

    Change from Baseline in Total Anxiety Score Measured Using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) at Week 12,16 and 26
    End point description
    HADS was a validated 14-item questionnaire to assess states of anxiety and depression over the past week. HADS consisted of 2 subscales: HADS-Anxiety (HADS-A) scale and HADS-Depression (HADS-D) scale, each of which comprised of 7 items. Each item was rated on a 4-point scale, with scores ranging from 0 to 3, where higher scores indicated more anxiety/depression symptoms. HADS-A assessed state of generalized anxiety (anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks). HADS-A total score was calculated as the sum of all 7 items with score ranging from 0 (no presence of anxiety) to 21 (severe feeling of anxiety); higher score indicated greater severity of anxiety. FAS comprised of all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention.

    Change from Baseline in EuroQol Quality of Life 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Score at Week 12, 16 and 26
    End point description
    The EQ-5D-5L is a self-reported health status questionnaire that consisted of six questions used to calculate a health utility score. There were two components to the EQ-5D-5L: a five-item health state profile that assessed mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression used to obtain an Index Utility Score, as well as a VAS that measured health state. EQ-5D VAS was used to record subject’s rating for his/her current health-related quality of life state on a vertical VAS with scores ranging from 0 to 100, where 0 = worst imaginable health state and 100 = best imaginable health state. FAS comprised of all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention. Here, 'Number of Subjects Analysed' signifies subjects evaluable for this end point.

    Change from Baseline in Medical Outcomes Study – Sleep Scale (MOS-Sleep Scale) at Week 12, 16 and 26
    End point description
    The MOS Sleep Scale is a 12-item measure that is segregated into subscales addressing seven sleep domains (i.e. sleep disturbance, snoring, short of breath or headache, adequacy of sleep, somnolence, sleep problems index I and sleep problems index II). An additional single item assessed quantity of sleep. Each of the sleep domains were scored on a range of 0-100, and higher scores indicated worse outcomes. The quantity of sleep scores ranged from 0 to 24 (number of hours slept). Change from baseline scores for each individual sleep domain and quantity of sleep are reported in this outcome measure. FAS comprised of all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention.

    Percentage of Subjects Achieving >=4 Points Improvement from Baseline in DLQI at Week 2, 12, 16, 20 and 26
    End point description
    DLQI was a 10-item questionnaire that measured the impact of skin disease. Each question was evaluated on a 4-point scale (range 0 to 3) where, 0 = not at all, 1= a little, 2= a lot, 3= very much, where higher scores indicated more impact on quality of life. Scores from all 10 questions were 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. FAS comprised of all randomised subjects who received at least one dose of study intervention. Here, 'n' signifies subjects evaluable for the specified time points.

    Date
    Amendment
    14 Jul 2020
    Amendment 1: Country specific changes for Czech republic Section 5.2: Subjects with increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism were excluded. Section 6.5.2.: If a subject required high potency topical therapy or systemic rescue therapy, they were to be permanently discontinued from the study intervention, have an End of Treatment visit and enter the 4-week follow-up period.
    14 Aug 2020
    Amendment 2: Per updated safety information, subjects with increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism were excluded. Inclusion criterion updated to require a clinical diagnosis of AD at least 6 months prior to Day 1 instead of at least 1 year. Exclusion of prior use of dupilumab has been expanded to include all IL-4 and IL-13 antagonists. Healthcare Resource Utilization (HCRU) assessment was moved from Week 16 to Week 12. Requirements for mental health professional assessments and recurrent suicidal ideation and behavior were clarified. Data collection requirements for adverse events of conjunctivitis were added. Temporary discontinuation timeframe updated for the injectable study intervention and requirement added for subjects who need systemic rescue therapy to temporarily discontinue study intervention while taking systemic rescue therapy. Added isoniazid as a prohibited concomitant medication.
