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   43872   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7291   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
    Core part:
    Demonstrate that remibrutinib is superior to teriflunomide in reducing the frequency of confirmed relapses
    Extension part:
    To assess long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy parameters in participants treated with remibrutinib
    L’obiettivo primario di questo studio è di dimostrare che remibrutinib è superiore a teriflunomide nel ridurre la frequenza di recidive confermate. Il quesito clinico primario di interesse è: qual è l’effetto di remibrutinib rispetto a teriflunomide (Aubagio®) sulla frequenza di recidive confermate misurate tramite il tasso di recidiva annualizzato (Annual Relapse Rate – ARR) in p affetti da RMS, indipendentemente dall’interruzione del trattamento per qualsiasi motivo.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Core
    Assess whether remibrutinib is superior to teriflunomide in
    ¿ Delaying disability progression based on the pooled data from both identical pivotal studies
    ¿ Reducing new inflammatory activity on MRI, based on MRI cohort data
    ¿ Reducing neuronal damage
    ¿ Disease-Activity-free status based on pooled data from both identical pivotal studies (MRI Cohort)
    Extension (exploratory)
    ¿Explore effect of remibrutinib versus terifunomide on brain MRI, relationship between remibrutinib exposure (PK) and efficacy and safety endpoints and relationship between potential biomarkers and their
    relationship with disease activity, disease course and treatment response
    ¿Perform exploratory pharmacogenetic analysis based on blood samples for DNA (optional)
    ¿ Explore the effect of remibrutinib versus teriflunomide on disease activity free status and effect of remibrutinib versus teriflunomide on disability progression independent of relapse activity
    See protocol for complete list of objectives
    Principali obiettivi secondari (Parte principale) Valutare se remibrutinib è superiore a teriflunomide nel ritardare la progressione della disabilità in base ai dati aggregati derivanti da entrambi gli identici studi pivotali. Il principale quesito clinico di interesse secondario è: valutare l’effetto di remibrutinib rispetto a teriflunomide sulla progressione della disabilità misurata tramite progressione della disabilità confermata a 3 mesi e a 6 mesi (3-month and 6-month Confirmed Disability Progression – 3mCDP, 6mCDP) in pazienti affetti da RMS, indipendentemente dall’interruzione del trattamento per qualsiasi motivo. . Per ulteriori dettagli, fare riferimento alla sinossi. Parte di estensione Valutare i parametri di sicurezza, tollerabilità ed efficacia a lungo termine in pazienti trattati con remibrutinib.

    Pharmacogenetics
    Version: -
    Date: 20/10/2021
    Title: DNA sampling / Pharmacogenetics
    Objectives: The study includes an optional genetic research component. The purpose XML File Identifier: 5HuXcg6ZSiK3s7FJYadKJvBYnnI= Page 15/33 of genetic research may be to better understand the safety and efficacy of remibrutinib, or to learn more about human diseases, or to help develop ways to detect, monitor and treat diseases. As technology changes over time, the most appropriate technology will be used at the time the exploratory genetic research is performed. This may include the study of the entire genome. The use of DNA to search for biomarkers of disease and drug action is exploratory.

    Other types of substudies
    Specify title, date and version of each substudy with relative objectives: 2) MRI Cohort
    Only selected sites will participate in the MRI cohort; it is planned that approximately 400 participants will be included in this MRI cohort after signature of an additional (optional) consent. All eligible participants
    from these selected sites will undergo MRI scanning of the brain (see protocol for details).
    MRI scans will be transmitted by the sites to the central MRI reading center, designated by Novartis, for quality checks and central read.
    Further details on the image acquisition can be found in the MRI manual of the central MRI reading center. Details regarding the central read can be found in the central MRI reading center independent review charter.
    Each MRI scan performed for the study needs to be previewed by a local neuroradiologist/radiologist. The Investigator must be contacted in case of unexpected findings (e.g. not consistent with MS) detected on the MRI scan for safety actions and AE reporting.
    The MRIs required for the MRI cohort as part of this study are defined in the protocol. Routine MRIs that are mandated by the local treatment guidelines or local Health Authority will be conducted outside the trial (not sent to the central MRI reading center or included in the study database) for any participant.
    3) Additional Biomarker assessment
    Transcriptomic profiling may be assessed, using RNA from whole blood. mRNA expression patterns and patterns of other RNA species, will be derived from application of various technologies which may include
    sequencing of cDNA libraries related to the RNA extracted from blood.
    These analyses will be used to examine the effect of remibrutinib on transient RNA and may support the identification of pathways/markers that characterize the disease or response of treatment with remibrutinib.
    Due to exploratory nature, the data will not be recorded in the clinical database. For this Transcriptomics (RNA) assessment, PAXgene whole blood samples (one aliquot with 2.5 ml blood) will be collected at designated visits and stored for long-term storage. Transcriptomic assessment will be triggered based on results obtained in this study or other MS studies.
    4) PK sub-study
    There will be two pharmacokinetic assessments (PK) cohorts, for "rich"
    and "sparse" sampling. "Rich PK sampling" will be performed in a
    minimum of 160 randomized participants (to ensure these are available for 80 completers per treatment arm), and requires sampling at Day 28 (M1) at pre-dose (0 h) and post-dose at the following times after dosing: 0.5 hour (± 15 mins), 1.0 hour (±15 mins), 2.0 hours (±15 mins), 3.0
    hours (±30 mins) and 4.0 hours (±30 mins), and at M6 at pre-dose (0 h)
    and at 1.0 hour (±15 mins) post-dose. "Sparse PK sampling" will be performed in all other randomized participants and requires sampling at
    Day 28 (M1) and M6 at both pre-dose (0 h) and 1.0 hour (±15 mins) post-dose at both visits. PK assessments are only performed during the Core Part of the study.
