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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    		 Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impressions - Severity Scale (CGI-S) Score
    End point description
    CGI-S is a 7-point Likert scale to rate the severity of subject’s illness at time of assessment, relative to the clinician’s past experience with subjects who had same diagnosis. Subject was assessed on severity of mental illness at time of rating as 1=normal, not at all ill; 2=borderline mentally ill; 3=mildly ill; 4=moderately ill; 5=markedly ill; 6=severely ill; and 7= extremely ill subjects. Lower score indicates better outcome. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. MMRM was used for analysis. FAS=all randomised subjects who received any amount of IP and had a valid baseline and at least one valid post-baseline total score in at least one of HAM-D, HAM-A, MADRS, CGI-S, EPDS and PHQ-9, or at least 1 post-baseline value of CGI-I. n=Number analysed is the number of subjects with data available for analyses.

    		 Percentage of Subjects With Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) Response
    End point description
    CGI-I response was defined as having a CGI-I score of “very much improved” or “much improved.” CGI-I employs a 7-point Likert scale to measure the overall improvement in the subject's condition posttreatment. The investigator rated the subject's total improvement whether or not it is due entirely to drug treatment. Response choices include 1=very much improved, 2=much improved, 3=minimally improved, 4=no change, 5=minimally worse, 6=much worse, and 7=very much worse. The CGI-I was only rated at posttreatment assessments. FAS included all randomized subjects who received any amount of IP and had a valid baseline and at least one valid post-baseline total score in at least one of HAM-D, HAM-A, MADRS, CGI-S, EPDS and PHQ-9, or at least 1 post-baseline value of CGI-I.Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) total score.

    		 Change From Baseline in Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) Total Score
    End point description
    14-item HAM-A was used to rate the severity of symptoms of anxiety. Each 14-items were defined by a series of symptoms, and measured both psychic anxiety (mental agitation and psychological distress) and somatic anxiety (physical complaints related to anxiety). The HAM-A total score was calculated as the sum of the 14 individual item scores. The scoring for HAM-A is calculated by assigning scores of 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe), with a total score range of 0 to 56 where <17 indicated mild severity, 18 to 24, mild to moderate severity, and 25 to 30, moderate to severe severity. A negative change from baseline in HAM-A total score indicated improvement. FAS included all randomized subjects who received any amount of IP and had a valid baseline and at least one valid post-baseline total score in at least one of HAM-D, HAM-A, MADRS, CGI-S, EPDS and PHQ-9, or at least 1 post-baseline value of CGI-I. n= subjects with data available for analyses.

    End point description
    PHQ-9 is a self-rated depressive symptom severity scale to monitor severity over time for newly diagnosed subjects or in current treatment for depression. Scoring was based on responses to 9 specific questions as follows: 0=not at all; 1=several days; 2 = more than half the days; and 3=nearly every day. Score were calculated as the sum of the 9 individual item scores. PHQ-9 total score was categorised as: 1 to 4=minimal depression, 5 to 9=mild depression, 10 to 14 =moderate depression, 15 to 19=moderately severe depression; and 20 to 27 =severe depression. PHQ-9 total score ranges from 1 to 27 with a higher score=more depression. Negative CFB indicates reduced depression. MMRM was used for analysis. FAS=all randomised subjects who received any amount of IP and had a valid baseline and at least one valid post-baseline total score in at least one of HAM-D, HAM-A, MADRS, CGI-S, EPDS and PHQ-9, or at least 1 post-baseline value of CGI-I. n=subjects with data available for analyses.

    		 Percentage of Subjects With at Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)
    End point description
    An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subjects administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. A TEAE is defined as an AE with onset after the start of Investigational Product (IP), or any worsening of a pre-existing medical condition/AE with onset after the start of IP and throughout the study. Safety Set included all participants who were administered IP.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    29 Jan 2021
    The summary of Amendment 1 was as follows: - Added COVID-19 questions to be asked to document information regarding diagnosis, isolation, and/or hospitalization due to COVID-19 as part of medical history, AE collection, and prior/concomitant medication/procedure collection throughout the study; - Broadened the eligibility criteria to include women who were up to 12 months postpartum. The criterion for the diagnosis of PPD, including the onset of symptoms, remained the same per DSM-5. The extension to 12 months was instituted so that a broader population of subjects could be reached, consistent with DSM-5; -Clarified that a subject with an index pregnancy that resulted in neonatal/infant death would be excluded; -Added details on the estimand specified in the protocol per FDA request; -Removed the definition of overdose to align with current Sage practice and other protocols. Cases of overdose were to be collected as reported by the investigator and recorded as an AE; -Increased the number of sites where the study was to be conducted; -Indicated that urine and serum pregnancy tests were to be conducted at Screening and that the urine test was recommended to precede other Screening assessments. Qualifying criteria were to be based on serum test results; - Updated contraception requirements to specify the types of bilateral tubal occlusion procedures that were considered to be acceptable forms of contraception and which procedure type required at least 3 months postprocedure prior to Screening; -Aligned the prohibited medication section with medications listed as exclusion criteria.
