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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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.

    For the first primary endpoint, the proportion of patients achieving a histological response at Week 24, is defined as below: ≤6 eosinophils/hpf in the stomach for the patients with only gastric disease at baseline. ≤6 eosinophils/hpf in the stomach and ≤15 eosinophils/hpf in the duodenum for the patients with gastric + duodenal disease at baseline. ≤15 eosinophils/hpf in the duodenum for the patients with only duodenal disease at baseline.

    		 CFB in SAGED score at Week 24 [4]
    End point description
    The Symptom Assessment for Gastrointestinal Eosinophilic Diseases (SAGED) instrument was developed to measure gastrointestinal symptoms in participants diagnosed with EG/EGE. The SAGED instrument, comprising 8 items, measures the severity of abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, early satiety, lack of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, and frequency of vomiting. Severity for each concept is assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (where 0 = ‘none’ and 10 = ‘worst imaginable’). Frequency of vomiting is reported as number of episodes of vomiting within the past 24 hours.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)
    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    28 Mar 2023
    This amendment is considered to be substantial based on the criteria set forth in Article 10(a) of Directive 2001/20/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union. Following the decision to close recruitment to this study early, the primary rationale for this amendment is to fulfill a commitment to participants as they enrolled in the trial, of open-label access to benralizumab following double-blind treatment. This amendment will make available a streamlined 24-week open-label trial of benralizumab with the addition of a Part D, contingent on the Investigator's clinical judgement and the potential for benefit.

    Interruptions (globally)
    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Due to early termination of study limited number of patients was randomized and thus data was not analysed on group level.
