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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 evaluate effect of 52-week treatment with Alglucosidase Alfa in the extension of survival and improvement of cardiomyopathy measured by Left Ventricular Mass Index (LVMI) in Chinese subjects with infantile-onset Pompe Disease (IOPD).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted by investigators experienced in the treatment of paediatric patients. The parent(s) or guardian(s) as well as the children were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time. In addition to the consent form for the parent(s)/guardian(s), an assent form in child-appropriate language was provided and explained to the child. Repeated invasive procedures were minimised. The number of blood samples as well as the amount of blood drawn were adjusted according to age and weight. A topical anesthesia might have been used to minimise distress and discomfort.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Study was conducted at 4 active study centres in China. A total of 12 subjects were screened between 04 Dec 2018 and 3 Dec 2019, of which 02 subjects failed screening mainly due to unmet inclusion criteria and/or met exclusion criteria and withdrawal of the informed consent by parents or legal guardians of subject, respectively.

    End point description
    LVM were assessed by echocardiograms. LVM index was an index value derived by normalizing LVM by body surface area. LVM index provides evidence of cardiomyopathy. LVM index values less than (<) 65 gram per metre quare (g/m^2) were considered as normal and LVM index values greater than or equal to (>=) 65 g/m^2 were considered as abnormal. Analysis was performed on ITT population. Here, ‘number of subjects analysed’ signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint.
