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   44238   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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
    The main objectives of this trial are to investigate a first signal of efficacy, safety and tolerability of BI 706321 in combination with ustekinumab treatment compared to placebo with ustekinumab treatment in patients with moderately to severely active CD at 12 weeks.

    The primary objective is to estimate the difference in change from baseline in Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn’s disease (SES-CD) after 12 weeks. The primary treatment comparison will be between treatment groups while on treatment during the 12 week induction period.
    Gli obiettivi principali di questo studio sono studiare un primo segnale di efficacia, sicurezza e tollerabilità di BI 706321 in combinazione con il trattamento con ustekinumab rispetto al placebo con il trattamento con ustekinumab in pazienti con MC attivo da moderato a grave a 12 settimane.

    L'obiettivo primario è stimare la differenza di variazione rispetto al basale nel punteggio endoscopico semplice per il morbo di Crohn (SES-CD) dopo 12 settimane. Il confronto del trattamento primario sarà tra i gruppi di trattamento durante il trattamento durante il periodo di induzione di 12 settimane.

    1. Have any current or prior abscesses, unless they have been drained and treated at least 6 weeks prior to randomisation and are not anticipated to require surgery. Patients with active fistulas may be included if there is no anticipation of a need for surgery and there are currently no abscesses present based on investigator`s judgement.
    2. Have complications of CD such as strictures, stenosis, short bowel syndrome, or any other manifestation that might require surgery, or could preclude the use of SESCD/ CDAI to assess response to therapy, or would possibly confound the evaluation of benefit from treatment with BI 706321 (based on investigator’s judgement).
    3. Patient with an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) diagnosis other than CD.
    4. Have had any kind of bowel resection or diversion within 4 months or any other intraabdominal surgery within 3 months prior to visit 1. Patients with current ileostomy, colostomy, or ileorectal anastomosis are excluded.
    5. Treatment with:
    o any non-biologic medication for IBD (e.g.tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil, systemic corticosteroids), other than those allowed per inclusion criteria, within 30 days prior to randomisation
    o any biologic treatment with a TNF-alpha antagonist (adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab, certolizumab pegol) or vedolizumab within 4 weeks prior to randomisation. (If drug level testing for previously used biologic treatment confirms no detectable drug level before randomisation, patient can be enrolled despite not having completed 4 week from last treatment.)
    o any previous treatment with ustekinumab
    o any previous treatment with an investigational non-biologic or biologic drug for CD (including but not limited to JAK inhibitors, S1P modulators, IL-23 inhibitors, anti-integrins).
    o any investigational drug for an indication other than CD during the course of the actual study and within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to randomisation.
    o any prior exposure to rituximab within 1 year prior to randomisation.
    6. Positive stool examination for C difficile (toxin A/B – test positive) or other intestinal pathogens <30 days prior to randomisation. Re screening can be undertaken following documented successful treatment, no sooner than 1 week after last intake of antimicrobial therapy.
    7. Evidence of colonic moderate/severe mucosal dysplasia or colonic adenomas, unless properly removed.
    8. Fecal transplant = 30 days prior to randomisation.
    9. Increased risk of infectious complications (e.g. recent pyogenic infection, any congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (e.g. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)), past organ or stem cell transplantation (with exception of a corneal transplant > 12 weeks prior to screening) or have ever received stem cell therapy (e.g., Prochymal). Prior treatment with a somatic cell therapy product (e.g., Alofisel) is not excluded, provided it was administered > 8 weeks prior to randomisation.
    10. Live or attenuated vaccination within 4 weeks prior to randomisation.
    11. Have received BCG vaccines = 1 year prior to randomisation.
    12. Active or latent TB:
    o Patients with active tuberculosis are excluded.
    o Patients will be screened with Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) such as QuantiFERON or T spot, the patient may also be evaluated for the presence of TB with any additional test required by local practice. Patients with positive test results are excluded unless patient is known to have had a previous diagnosis of active or latent TB and has completed appropriate treatment per local practice/guidelines within the last 3 years and at least 6 months before first administration of trial medication under this protocol (patients may be rescreened once to meet this specific criterion)
    o Patients with indeterminate QuantiFERON or invalid/borderline T spot may be re-tested with IGRA (once), and if again inconclusive, should have a Purified Protein Derivative (PPD) skin test.

    1. Avere ascessi in corso o precedenti, a meno che non siano stati drenati e trattati almeno 6 settimane prima della randomizzazione e non si prevede che richiedano un intervento chirurgico. I pazienti con fistole attive possono essere inclusi se non si prevede la necessità di un intervento chirurgico e non sono attualmente presenti ascessi in base al giudizio dello sperimentatore.
    2. Avere complicanze della MC come stenosi, stenosi, sindrome dell'intestino corto o qualsiasi altra manifestazione che potrebbe richiedere un intervento chirurgico, o potrebbe precludere l'uso di SESCD/CDAI per valutare la risposta alla terapia, o potrebbe confondere la valutazione del beneficio del trattamento con BI 706321 (basato sul giudizio dell'investigatore).
    3. Paziente con diagnosi di malattia infiammatoria intestinale (IBD) diversa da MC.
    4. Hanno subito qualsiasi tipo di resezione o diversione intestinale nei 4 mesi o qualsiasi altro intervento chirurgico intraddominale nei 3 mesi precedenti la visita 1. Sono esclusi i pazienti con ileostomia, colostomia o anastomosi ileorettale in corso.
    5. Trattamento con:
    o qualsiasi farmaco non biologico per IBD (es. tacrolimus o micofenolato mofetile, corticosteroidi sistemici), diversi da quelli consentiti dai criteri di inclusione, entro 30 giorni prima della randomizzazione
    o qualsiasi trattamento biologico con un antagonista del TNF-alfa (adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab, certolizumab pegol) o vedolizumab nelle 4 settimane precedenti la randomizzazione. (Se il test del livello del farmaco per il trattamento biologico utilizzato in precedenza conferma che nessun livello del farmaco rilevabile prima della randomizzazione, il paziente può essere arruolato nonostante non abbia completato 4 settimane dall'ultimo trattamento.)
    o qualsiasi precedente trattamento con ustekinumab
    o qualsiasi precedente trattamento con un farmaco sperimentale non biologico o biologico per la MC (inclusi ma non limitati a inibitori JAK, modulatori S1P, inibitori di IL-23, anti-integrine).
    o qualsiasi farmaco sperimentale per un'indicazione diversa dalla MC nel corso dello studio effettivo ed entro 30 giorni o 5 emivite (a seconda di quale sia più lunga) prima della randomizzazione.
    o qualsiasi precedente esposizione a rituximab entro 1 anno prima della randomizzazione.
    6. Esame delle feci positivo per C difficile (tossina A/B – test positivo) o altri patogeni intestinali <30 giorni prima della randomizzazione.
