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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evobrutinib administered orally twice daily versus Teriflunomide (Aubagio®), administered orally once daily in subjects with Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS). Subjects who complete the double-blind treatment period (DBTP) and double-blind extension period (DBEP) prior to approval of a separate long-term follow-up study in their country will get an option for evobrutinib treatment continuation through a 96-week open-label extension (OLE) period.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Subject protection was ensured by following high medical and ethical standards in accordance with the principles laid down in the Declaration of Helsinki, and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practice and applicable regulations.

    DBTP and DBE Period: Percentage of Subjects Without 12-Week Confirmed Disability Progression (CDP) as Measured by Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)
    End point description
    Disability progression was defined as increase in EDSS of greater than or equal to [>=] 1 point from baseline EDSS score, if EDSS score at baseline is 5.0 or less and an increase of >=0.5 point, if the baseline score is 5.5. Disability progression is considered sustained for 12 weeks when the initial increase in the EDSS is confirmed at a regularly scheduled visit at least 12 weeks after the initial documentation of neurological worsening. The total EDSS score ranges from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to multiple sclerosis). Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the percentage of subjects without 12-week CDP. Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all subjects who were randomized to study treatment. The result reported for this endpoint are the results from data of combined DBTP and DBE periods.

    DBTP and DBE Period: Percentage of Subjects Without 24-Week Confirmed Disability Progression (CDP) as Measured by Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)
    End point description
    Disability progression was defined as increase in EDSS of greater than or equal to [>=] 1 point from baseline EDSS score, if EDSS score at baseline is 5.0 or less and an increase of >=0.5 point, if the baseline score is 5.5. Disability progression is considered sustained for 24 weeks when the initial increase in the EDSS is confirmed at a regularly scheduled visit at least 24 weeks after the initial documentation of neurological worsening. The total EDSS score ranges from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to multiple sclerosis). Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the percentage of subjects without 24-week CDP. Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all subjects who were randomized to study treatment. The result reported for this endpoint are the results from data of combined DBTP and DBE periods.

    End point description
    Physical function was assessed with PROMISnq Short Form v2.0 – Physical Function – Multiple Sclerosis 15a (PROMISnq PF(MS) 15a). PROMISnq PF(MS) 15a assesses a subject's abilities and limitations with respect to everyday physical activities. Results are reported as a T-score. In the general population, T-scores have a mean of 50, standard deviation of 10, and range from 10 to 65. Higher T-scores represent higher physical function. Change from baseline in PROMIS PF score was analyzed using Mixed Effect Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM) to evaluate the result of the 2 periods (DBTP and DBE). Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all subjects who were randomized to study treatment. Here, number of subjects analyzed signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint.

    OLE Period: Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT)
    End point description
    The SDMT is a test of information processing speed. It consists of 9 abstract symbols. Each symbol is paired with a single digit. The subject is provided with a "key", showing each symbol digit pair. In addition, the subjects are shown several rows of the 9 symbols, which are arranged pseudo-randomly, without the digit. Subjects are asked to voice the digit associated with each symbol as rapidly as possible for 90 seconds. The SDMT score ranges from 0 to 110 where higher scores indicated improvement and lower scores indicated worsening. Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all subjects who were randomized to study treatment.

    End point description
    Physical function was assessed with PROMISnq Short Form v2.0 – Physical Function – Multiple Sclerosis 15a (PROMISnq PF(MS) 15a). PROMISnq PF(MS) 15a assesses a subject's abilities and limitations with respect to everyday physical activities. Results are reported as a T-score. In the general population, T-scores have a mean of 50, standard deviation of 10, and range from 10 to 65. Higher T-scores represent higher physical function. Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all subjects who were randomized to study treatment.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    27 Nov 2020
    • To allow sufficient time for repeat laboratory results and other unanticipated events prior to randomization • To clarify the process in the event of a female subject undergoing AEP • Medical history is collected at Screening; any changes thereafter are recorded as AEs • A urine pregnancy test is sufficient at this visit unless there has been a gap of >=1 month since the last test • Tmax removed from list of PK parameters for evaluation • Objectives and endpoints added for biomarkers collected during the OLE • False positive results were not addressed in the original protocol
    19 May 2021
    • To be aligned with the inclusion of an optional IA for BSSR. • Due to unexpectedly rapid enrollment, the trigger for the IA for USSR is projected to occur months after the completion of enrollment, considered too late to implement changes following outcome of IA from an operational perspective. The optional IA for BSSR, triggered prior to completion of enrollment, does not have this disadvantage • Due to the removal of the IA for USSR, the role played by the IDMC in making the sample size increase recommendation is no longer required. • Due to removing the IA for USSR, there is no need to control type-1 error in the 12-week CDP analysis using the Cui, Hung, Wang method. Thus, 12-week CDP and 24-week CDP will be analyzed in the same manner.
    03 Apr 2022
    • Revision of the treatment duration from fixed 96 weeks to variable duration up to 156 weeks • CDI endpoint added to secondary endpoints to explore treatment effect on additional clinically relevant endpoint for disability. Week 12 NfL concentration added to investigate early impact of treatment on reducing neuronal damage. • A new study will allow subjects who completed the double blind treatment period in the current protocol to enroll in a new, single-arm long-term follow-up study, which will also include subjects who completed other RMS studies with evobrutinib. The text of the protocol has been amended to describe a transition opportunity to this long-term follow-up study • NfL has emerged as a potential biomarker for disease activity and treatment monitoring of patients with MS. Additional information added to support the inclusion of NfL as secondary endpoint.
    06 Dec 2022
    • Introduction of an OLE period for subjects completing the DBTP prior to approval of the long-term follow-up study in their country to enable an option for evobrutinib treatment continuation • Addition of the following exploratory endpoints: Time to PIRA and time to PIRMA (to evaluate the effect of treatment on progression not driven by relapse events or MRI activity); NEP at Weeks 48, 96; Level of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.
    26 Apr 2023
    • To reflect the recent update to the risk profile of evobrutinib (i.e. important identified risk of drug-induced liver injury) by adapting liver-related eligibility criteria, monitoring, and discontinuation criteria as well as language on tolerability and safety of evobrutinib across the protocol. • To allow subjects to stay on blinded IMP after DBTP in a DBE period to delay the switch of subjects naïve to evobrutinib treatment to the OLE period. This will also allow to generate additional data on efficacy and safety over an extended period of time.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Final Analysis represents analysis of cumulative data collected up to Primary Analysis trigger and beyond through DBE up to final database lock. Therefore, endpoints were evaluated considering a time period from start of DBTP to end of DBE Period.
