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 changes in skin barrier function with transepidermal water loss (TEWL) assessed after skin tape stripping (STS) in pre-defined lesional skin in subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) treated with dupilumab.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted by investigators experienced in the treatment of adults and paediatric subjects. The parent(s) or guardian(s) as well as the children were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time. In addition to the consent form for the parent(s)/guardian(s), an assent form in child-appropriate language was provided and explained to the child. Repeated invasive procedures were minimised. The number of blood samples as well as the amount of blood drawn were adjusted according to age and weight. A topical anesthesia may have been used to minimise distress and discomfort. Adult subjects were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time in language and terms appropriate for the subject and considering the local culture. During the course of the trial, subjects were provided with individual subject cards indicating the nature of the trial the subject is participating, contact details and any information needed in the event of a medical emergency. Collected personal data and human biological samples were processed in compliance with the Sanofi-Aventis Group Personal Data Protection Charter ensuring that the Group abides by the laws governing personal data protection in force in all countries in which it operates.

    End point description
    TEWL assessment: noninvasive in vivo measurement of water loss across stratum corneum that is used to characterise skin barrier function (SBF). TEWL combined with STS measures SBF. With STS, the uppermost layers of skin are peeled away using adhesive discs. LS areas for TEWL assessment and STS was identified at Baseline (predefined skin area). Within predefined LS areas, 3 closely adjacent non-overlapping spots identified for subsequent SBF assessment. TEWL was measured prior to STS and after 5, 10, 15 and 20 STS on pre-defined LS areas at specified time points. STS assessment at Baseline (Week 0, Day 1) and Week 16 was conducted on 1st spot. Percent Change from Baseline at Week 16 in TEWL after 5 STS on LS (1st spot) in AD subjects were reported in this endpoint. mITT:AD subjects, had at least 1 dose of IMP and healthy volunteers, had at least 1 TEWL/STS. If prohibited therapies used, only visits prior to rescue therapy were considered. Number of subjects analysed=subjects evaluable.

    TEWL assessment: a noninvasive in vivo measurement of water loss across stratum corneum that is used to characterise SBF. TEWL combined with STS measures SBF. With STS, the uppermost layers of the skin are peeled away using adhesive discs. The normal skin areas for TEWL assessment and STS were identified at Baseline ('predefined skin area'). Within the predefined normal skin areas, 3 closely adjacent non-overlapping spots identified for subsequent SBF assessment.

    End point description
    TEWL assessment: noninvasive in vivo measurement of water loss across stratum corneum that is used to characterise SBF. Normal skin areas for TEWL assessment were identified at Baseline ('predefined skin area'). Within predefined normal skin areas, 3 closely adjacent non-overlapping spots identified for subsequent SBF assessment. TEWL was measured prior to STS on pre-defined normal skin areas at specified time points. At each visit, before STS, all three spots were assessed, and their value was averaged to derive a single value. Percent change from Baseline at specified time points in TEWL before STS on normal skin in healthy volunteers were reported in this endpoint. Analysis was performed on mITT population. Here, number of subjects analysed = subjects evaluable for this endpoint and 'n' = subjects with available data for each specified category.

    Absolute Change From Baseline in TEWL After 5, 10, 15 and 20 STS on Normal Skin in Healthy Volunteers at Day 15, 29, 57, 85 and Week 16 [27]
    End point description
    TEWL assessment: noninvasive in vivo measurement of water loss across stratum corneum that is used to characterise SBF. TEWL combined with STS measures SBF. With STS, uppermost layers of skin are peeled away using adhesive discs. Normal skin areas for TEWL assessment and STS were identified at Baseline ('predefined skin area'). Within predefined normal skin areas, 3 closely adjacent non-overlapping spots identified for subsequent SBF assessment. TEWL was measured prior to STS and after 5, 10, 15 and 20 STS on pre-defined normal skin areas at specified time points. STS assessment was done at Baseline (Week 0, Day 1), Day 57 and Week 16 on 1st spot; at Day 15 on 2nd spot and at Day 29 and Day 85 on 3rd spot. Absolute change from Baseline at specified time points in TEWL after STS on normal skin in healthy volunteers were reported in this endpoint. mITT population. Here, number of subjects analysed=subjects evaluable and 'n'=subjects with data a for each specified category.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    28 Jul 2020
    The following changes were done: • To further characterise the treatment effect of dupilumab in adolescent and adult subjects with moderate to severe AD in reference to matched healthy controls, a proteomics assessment and a transcriptomics assessment from skin tape strips were added. • These assessments allowed for better assessment of the mechanism of dupilumab in AD. To have comparable data in lesional skin and nonlesional skin of AD subjects as well as in normal skin of healthy volunteers, the number of skin tape strips collected was set to 20 for each skin area. • In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, benefit-risk assessment in the context of COVID-19 was introduced. Implementation of temporary or alternative mechanisms such as phone contact, virtual visits, online meetings, use of local clinic or laboratory locations, and home visits by skilled staff (as permitted per local regulations) were allowed to ensure the study continuity and protect subjects’ safety. No waivers to deviate from protocol enrollment criteria due to COVID‑19 were granted. Remote monitoring was implemented when onsite monitoring was not allowed. All temporary mechanisms utilised and deviations from planned study procedures were documented as being related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
