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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3 different doses of EDP1815 for the treatment of psoriasis following daily dosing for 16 weeks.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was performed in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki, ICH GCP, and all applicable country and local regulations. A written informed consent was obtained from each participant before entering the study or performing any nonroutine procedure. Each prospective participant or his or her legal guardian was given a full explanation of the study, was allowed to read the approved ICF, and had any questions answered.
    Background therapy
    There wasn’t any background therapy. All prior and concomitant medications were listed.
    Evidence for comparator
    This was placebo-controlled study.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Subjects who met all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were enrolled into the study. A total of 249 subjects were randomly assigned in 1:1:1 ratio to one of the 3 parallel cohorts: Cohort 1: 0.8 × 10^11 cells of EDP1815 or placebo; Cohort 2: 3.2 × 10^11 cells of EDP1815 or placebo; Cohort 3: 8.0 × 10^11 cells of EDP1815 or placebo

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Study comprised a screening period of up to 4 weeks. Participants were allowed into the study if they were between the ages of 18 and 70 years (inclusive) with a documented diagnosis of mild to moderate plaque psoriasis for ≥6 months and agreed to follow contraceptive guidance.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: 249 subjects started Treatment period (Part A), 186 subjects completed Part A and 124 subjects entered into Follow up period (Part B).

Participants who withdrew from the study before the end of Week 4 and were replaced were included in this analysis set. All analyses using the mITT grouped participants according to randomized treatment. The mITT set was the primary population of interest for the efficacy analyses.

    The safety set consisted of all participants who received any study drug. All analyses using the safety set grouped participants according to treatment received. If participants received multiple treatments during the study, they were assigned to treatment group in the following manner: • If a participant received both active EDP1815 and placebo treatments, they were assigned to the active treatment group. • If a participant received 2 or more different active dose levels, they were assigned to the highest dose they received. The safety set was used for all safety data presentations.

    Performed using a Bayesian Mixed Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM) analysis with parameters for treatment*visit and baseline*visit and baseline BMI. Non-informative priors following a normal distribution with mean of 0 and a SD of 1000 were used for all parameters. After a burn-in of 10,000 samples, 100,000 MCMC samples were generated with a thin of 20 to leave 5000 retained samples for the analysis.

    17 Nov 2020
    The following is a summary of the major changes implemented with Protocol Amendment 4, dated 17 Nov 2020: • Local Amendment 3.1 (Hungary specific) was included. • Post-treatment follow-up was extended for a maximum of up to 6 months. • One secondary and 1 exploratory objective were added. • Definitions of response, relapse, and rebound based on PASI score were added. • Statistical analyses, endpoints, and supportive analyses were updated. • Skin plaque biopsy description was added. • Instructions for participants on withholding emollients or moisturizers were added. • 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 and its analogs were removed from exclusion criterion #8. • Exclusion criterion #21 was clarified. • Pre- and probiotic use was clarified. • Allowed and prohibited vaccines were updated. • Eligibility confirmation at baseline/Visit 2 was clarified to be based on screening laboratory results. • The maximum allowed dose (overdose management) was clarified. • Clarification on data blinding was added. • “On the morning of the visit” ECGs and vital signs were changed to “on the day of the visit” in footnotes of the SoA. • The ideal size of lesion area for digital photography was updated.
