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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate the efficacy and safety of crisaborole ointment, 2% in Chinese and Japanese pediatric and adult subjects (ages 2 years and older) with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis involving at least 5% treatable body surface area (BSA).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and in compliance with all International Conference for Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trials subjects were followed. The external data monitoring committee (E-DMC) was responsible for ongoing monitoring of the safety of subjects in the study according to the charter.

    End point title
    Percent Change From Baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) Total Score at Day 29
    End point description
    The EASI quantifies the severity of a subject's atopic dermatitis (AD) based on both severity of lesion clinical signs and the percent of body surface area (BSA) affected. EASI is a composite scoring of the degree of erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each scored separately) for each of four body regions, with adjustment for the percent of BSA involved for each body region and for the proportion of the body region to the whole body. Total EASI score ranged from 0.0 to 72.0, higher scores = greater severity of AD. Overall number of subjects analyzed included all subjects randomized and dispensed study drug. Subjects were assigned to the randomized treatment regardless of what treatment was received.

    End point description
    An adverse event was considered as a treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) if the event started after the first dose of treatment regardless of whether a similar event of equal or greater severity existed in the baseline period. SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. AEs are classified according to the severity in 3 categories a) mild – AEs does not interfere with subject’s usual function b) moderate – AEs interferes to some extent with subject’s usual function c) severe – AEs interferes significantly with subject’s usual function. Overall number of subjects analyzed included all subjects who were randomized and received at least 1 confirmed dose of investigational product.

    ISGA assessed the severity of AD on a 5-point scale ranged from 0 (clear) to 4 (maximum severe), where higher scores indicate higher degree of AD. Grades for classification of severity: 0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild, 3 = moderate, and 4 = severe. Success in ISGA is defined as an ISGA score of Clear (0) or Almost Clear (1) with at least a 2 grade improvement from Baseline.

    End point description
    The EASI quantifies the severity of a subject's AD based on both severity of lesion clinical signs and the percent of BSA affected. EASI is a composite scoring of the degree of erythema, induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification (each scored separately) for each of four body regions, with adjustment for the percent of BSA involved for each body region and for the proportion of the body region to the whole body. Total EASI score ranged from 0.0 to 72.0, higher scores = greater severity of AD. Overall number of subjects analyzed included all subjects randomized and dispensed study drug. Subjects were assigned to the randomized treatment regardless of what treatment was received.

    Change From Baseline in Weekly Average of Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGIS) Score
    End point description
    The PGIS (for subjects 12 years and older) is a single item patient-rated measure of the subject's AD condition severity at a given point in time. This single item instrument uses a 7-point rating scale, which range from 1 to 7, where 1=Not present to 7=Extremely severe. Overall number of subjects analyzed included all subjects randomized and dispensed study drug. Subjects were assigned to the randomized treatment regardless of what treatment was received.

    Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score
    End point description
    The PGIC (for subjects 12 years and older) was used to determine global improvement as assessed by the patient. It was used as an anchor to define a responder definition for the peak pruritus scales for ‘clinically important responder’ and as a sensitivity analysis for defining a ‘clinical important difference’ on the peak pruritus scales. This single item instrument is a 7-point rating scale, anchored by (1) ‘very much improved’ to (7) ‘very much worse’. Overall number of subjects analyzed included all subjects randomized and dispensed study drug. Subjects were assigned to the randomized treatment regardless of what treatment was received.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Nov 2019
    Updated the primary and key secondary efficacy endpoints to align with global clinical development program, including: Change of primary endpoint from ISGA (Investigator’s Static Global Assessment) to EASI (Eczema Area and Severity Index). Addition of ISGA as a key secondary endpoint. Addition of age specification for Pruritus assessments. Addition of tertiary endpoints pertaining to pruritus assessment.
    28 Aug 2020
    (1) Only for Japan: Japan subjects who completed the study intervention period in Study C3291032 were offered participation in the long-term safety extension study C3291027 if eligibility criteria were met. The subjects who rolled over into study C3291027 without a Post Treatment Follow Up period were considered completers in this study. (2) All female subjects who were of childbearing potential as applicable to the study who were, in the opinion of the investigator, sexually active and at risk for pregnancy with their partner(s) must have agreed to use an appropriate method of contraception consistently and correctly for the screening period, the duration of the active treatment period and for at least 28 days after the last dose of investigational product.
    18 Dec 2020
    Updated the sample size and power: The total sample size of 384 subjects in this study with a 2:1 randomization ratio (256:128) provided approximately 90% power to detect a 12% difference of percent change from baseline in EASI total score at Day 29 between crisaborole arm and vehicle arm at the 0.05 (2-sided) significance level, assuming the common standard deviation of percent change from baseline in EASI total score at Day 29 is 34%.
