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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial

    from two different chemical classes, including at least one atypical antipsychotic, for
    at least 6 weeks of treatment each. The last failed treatment trial must be documented.

    7. Has a PANSS total score = 70 at screening and baseline.
    8. Has a score of 4 (moderate) or more on at least 2 of the following 4 PANSS symptoms
    of psychosis: P2 (Conceptual Disorganization), P3 (Hallucinatory Behavior), P6

    least 20 on the combined total of the PANSS symptom items: P1 (Delusions), P2
    (Conceptual Disorganization), P3 (Hallucinatory Behavior), P4 (Excitement), P6
    (Suspiciousness/Persecution), P7 (Hostility), and G9 (Unusual thought content).

    stable dose (minimally for 4 weeks prior to screening) at a minimal recommended
    therapeutic or higher dose of one antipsychotic (atypical or typical, other than
    clozapine). Current use of quetiapine at a dose of 150 mg or less at night as a

    one year.
    12. Patient is cooperative, able to take oral medication, able to understand the
    instructions and willing to complete all aspects of the study, and is capable of doing
    so.
    13. Patient is residing with a caregiver at his/her home, or is either in a residential

    esclusione di seguito).
    4. Ha ricevuto la diagnosi di schizofrenia negli ultimi 10 anni.
    5. Ha mostrato resistenza al trattamento della schizofrenia secondo l'anamnesi
    psichiatrica. L'ultimo episodio di resistenza deve essere documentato nella cartella
    clinica del paziente. La "schizofrenia resistente al trattamento" (TRS) è definita come
    una persistenza di sintomi clinici significativi nonostante vengano assunte dosi
    adeguate di due farmaci antipsicotici standard (diversi dalla clozapina) appartenenti a
    due diverse classi chimiche, tra cui almeno un antipsicotico atipico, per almeno 6
    settimane di trattamento ciascuno. L'ultimo fallimento terapeutico dev'essere
    documentato.

    stabile (almeno da 4 settimane prima dello screening) a una dose terapeutica minima
    raccomandata o superiore di un antipsicotico (atipico o tipico, diverso dalla
    clozapina). L'uso corrente di quetiapina alla dose di 150 mg o inferiore durante la
    notte come sedativo non sarà considerato polifarmacia.
    11. Livello sintomatico attuale presente da almeno un mese, ma da meno di un anno.
    12. Il paziente è cooperativo, in grado di assumere farmaci per via orale, capace di
    comprendere le istruzioni e disposto e in grado di rispettare tutti gli aspetti dello

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Safety will be assessed by the following:
    • Adverse events (AEs)
    • Vital signs (systolic/diastolic blood pressure, pulse, body temperature, respiratory
    rate, body weight, BMI, waist circumference)
    • Laboratory evaluations (hematology, blood chemistry, and urinalysis; serum prolactin).
    • Electrocardiogram (ECG) – 12-lead standard
    • Physical examination
    • Neurological examination
    • Standard eye examination – visual acuity (Snellen chart), visual field, eye muscles, pupillary response, fundus (dilated, if feasible), tonometry, and front part of eyes (eyelids, cornea, conjunctiva, sclera and iris)
    • Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale - Abbreviated version (ESRS-A)
    • Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia (CDSS).
    Valutazioni di sicurezza - Obiettivo di sicurezza primario
    La sicurezza verrà valutata in base a quanto segue:
    • Eventi avversi (AEs)
    • Segni vitali (pressione arteriosa sistolica / diastolica, pulsazioni, temperatura corporea, frequenza respiratoria, peso corporeo, indice di massa corporea, circonferenza addominale)
    • Valutazioni di laboratorio (ematologia, ematochimica e analisi delle urine; prolattina sierica).
    • Elettrocardiogramma (ECG) - standard a 12 derivazioni
    • Esame obiettivo
    • Esame neurologico
    • Esame oculistico standard: acuità visiva (tabella di Snellen), campo visivo, muscoli oculari, risposta pupillare, fondo (con pupille dilatate, se possibile), tonometria e parte anteriore degli occhi (palpebre, cornea, congiuntiva, sclera e iride)
    • Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale - Versione abbreviata (ESRS-A)
    • Scala CDSS (Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia).
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    The primary endpoint for assessment of efficacy will be at the 6-week (Day 43) time-point, as this is a standard period for assessing efficacy of antipsychotic drugs.
    L'endpoint primario verrà valutato a 6 settimane (day 43) in quanto è la finestra temporale standard per valutare l'efficacia di farmaci antipsicotici.

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    Patients could take parte into the 46-weeks extension study: patients who will not partecipate as those who will interrupt prematurely the treatment, will be asked to return to the site for a follow-up visit after 7 days from last drug intake. If the patient won't show to the 7 days follow up visit, the site staff will try to contact him/her for evaluating his/hers conditions. Furthermore, patients will be contacted by the site staff 30 days after last drug intake to assess possible SAE.
    I pazienti potranno partecipare all'estensione dello studio di 46 settimane: coloro che non parteciperanno così come colore che interrompono prematuramente la loro partecipazione,dovranno sottoporsi a una visita di follow-up 7 giorni dall'ultima dose di farmaco assunta. Se il paziente non si sottopone alla visita di follow-up dopo 7 giorni, verrà ricontattato per valutarne le condizioni. Inoltre, il paziente sarà contattato 30 giorni dopo l'ultima dose di farmaco per stabilire la presenza di SAE
