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   44351   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7378   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 primary objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of twice weekly subcutaneous (SC) doses of pegcetacoplan compared with that of placebo in subjects with primary complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G) or immune-complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN) on the basis of a reduction in proteinuria.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This research was carried out in accordance with the protocol, applicable regulations, the ethical principles set forth in the Declaration of Helsinki, and the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use Harmonised Guideline for Good Clinical Practice E6 Revision 2. An external, independent data monitoring committee assessed the safety and tolerability data of the study periodically.

    Randomized Controlled Period: Change From Baseline in Log-Transformed Urine Protein-to-Creatinine Ratio (uPCR) at Week 26
    End point description
    Baseline uPCR value was calculated as the average of the uPCR measurements from at least 6 of the 9 first-morning spot urine (FMU) samples collected between the start of screening and Day 1, inclusive. The uPCR values used to calculate baseline included those from the samples collected on Day −2, Day −1, and before dosing on Day 1. In situations where less than 6 samples or more than 9 samples were collected, the average of all collected samples was used for baseline derivation. The difference between treatment groups using a composite contrast of equal-weighted average over Weeks 24, 25, and 26 was estimated. The intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis set included all randomized subjects.

    The C3G histologic index used to assess disease activity and chronicity in C3G. The C3G total activity score ranges from 0 (worse) to 21 (best). Higher scores indicate better outcome. Baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to taking the first dose of study drug. The ITT analysis set included all randomized subjects. Since adolescents subjects were not required to provide post-screening biopsies, this endpoint was analyzed based on adult subjects only.

    The FACIT-Fatigue scale was a 13-item Likert scaled instrument that was self-administered by subjects. Subjects were presented with 13 statements and asked to indicate their responses as it applied to the past 7 days. The 5 possible responses were “not at all” (0), “a little bit” (1), “somewhat” (2), “quite a bit” (3) and “very much” (4). With 13 statements the total score has a range of 0 (worse health-related quality of life) to 52 (best health-related quality of life). Higher scores indicate better quality of life. Baseline was defined as the most recent non-missing measurement prior to taking the first dose of study drug. The ITT analysis set included all randomized subjects.
