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   44157   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7327   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 primary objective of this study is to identify the most promising therapeutic strategy for patients with inadequate response to standard of care therapy in granulomatosis with polyangiitis. It will evaluate the efficacy to induce remission of three different salvage strategies including: a combination of rituximab with addition of a conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (cDMARD) (either methotrexate, azathioprine or mycophenolate mofetil, but preferentially methotrexate); tocilizumab; or abatacept.
    L’objectif principal de cette étude est d'identifier la stratégie thérapeutique la plus prometteuse pour les patients qui ont une GPA avec une réponse inadéquate au traitement de référence. Elle évaluera l'efficacité pour l’induction de la rémission de trois stratégies thérapeutiques de sauvetage différentes : une combinaison de rituximab en association avec un cDMARD (soit le méthotrexate, soit l'azathioprine, soit le mycophénolate mofétil, avec de préférence le méthotrexate) ; un relai par du tocilizumab ; ou un relai par de l'abatacept.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To evaluate the safety profile (adverse events), the corticosteroids dose, the sequelae, the functional disability and quality of life, the patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and the evolution of ANCA titers in each salvage therapy group.
    Évaluer le profil de sécurité (événements indésirables), la dose de corticostéroïdes, les séquelles, le handicap fonctionnel et la qualité de vie, les patient reported outcomes (PRO) ou « résultats rapportés par les patients » et l'évolution des titres ANCA dans chaque groupe.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients with a response or a remission at 12 weeks as defined according to the EULAR recommendations.
    Remission is defined as the absence of disease activity attributable to active disease qualified by the need for ongoing stable maintenance immunosuppressive therapy. The term ‘‘active disease’’ is not restricted to vasculitis only, but also includes other inflammatory features like granulomatous inflammation. Response is defined as a 50% reduction of disease activity score and absence of new manifestations.
    Evaluation of remission and response will be determined according to the EULAR recommendations by the investigator in charge of the patient and secondarily validated blindly by an Endpoint Adjudication Committee.
    Le critère de jugement principal sera la proportion de patients en réponse ou en rémission à 12 semaines, selon les définitions de l'EULAR.
    La rémission est définie comme l'absence d'activité de la maladie attribuable à une maladie active, caractérisée par la nécessité d'un traitement immunosuppresseur d'entretien à dose stable. Le terme "maladie active" n'est pas limité à la vascularite uniquement, mais inclut également d'autres caractéristiques inflammatoires comme l'inflammation granulomateuse. La réponse est définie comme une réduction de 50 % du score d'activité de la maladie et l'absence de nouvelles manifestations.
    L'évaluation de la rémission et de la réponse sera déterminée selon les recommandations EULAR par l'investigateur en charge du patient et validée secondairement en aveugle par un comité d’adjudication.
