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   43874   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7294   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.

    c. Historical biopsy (within last 5 years) shows steatosis. Pathology report documents steatosis with no minimal percentage required. Now with cirrhosis, either by clinical history or current features, imaging, noninvasive tests, or biopsy (see Appendix 7). Prescreening metabolic risk factors must include obesity and/or T2D. (Up to approximately 10% of study patient population.)
    6. Well-compensated NASH cirrhosis at Screening and Baseline with Child-Pugh A (score of 5-6) (no history of decompensation event).

    - NOTE: Patients with vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy would be an exception to this rule. Patients that require intermittent use of bronchodilators, topical, inhaled, or intranasal corticosteroids, or local steroid injections are not excluded from the study.
    - NOTE: Patients with autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis who are on systemic therapies may be eligible on a case-by-case basis as long as the systemic therapy for the autoimmune disease is not specifically excluded (ie steroids or immunosuppressive agents).

    1. Malattie epatiche croniche diverse dalla cirrosi NASH:
    a. Colangite biliare primaria
    b. Colangite sclerosante primaria
    c. Epatite B positiva (come definita nell'Appendice 2)
    d. Epatite C (come definita nell'Appendice 3)
    e. Storia o evidenza di epatite autoimmune attiva in corso
    f. Storia o evidenza di malattia di Wilson
    g. Storia o evidenza di deficit di alfa-1-antitripsina
    h. Storia o evidenza di emocromatosi genetica (ereditaria, primaria)

    dell'esposizione tipica e dell'anamnesi
    j. Ostruzione nota del dotto biliare
    k. Sospetto o confermato cancro al fegato
    2. Punteggio MELD =>12, dovuto a malattia epatica.
    - NOTA: un punteggio MELD =>12 deve essere il risultato di una malattia epatica per essere escluso, e non di anomalie di laboratorio isolate come un'elevata creatinina dovuta a una malattia renale cronica, un'anomalia dell'INR secondaria ad anticoagulanti o a un errore di laboratorio, o un'elevazione della bilirubina dovuta alla sindrome di Gilbert. Il test dell'allele UGT1A1 deve essere eseguito al momento dello screening su tutti i pazienti (ove consentito).
    3. Anamnesi di scompenso o compromissione epatica, definita come presenza di uno dei seguenti elementi:
    a. Storia di emorragia da varici (NOTA: sono ammesse piccole varici non sanguinanti).
    b. ascite dovuta a cirrosi. La risonanza magnetica o la TAC di screening mostra una sacca di liquido di almeno 2 cm in almeno 2 delle 5 stazioni addominali, compresi i quattro quadranti addominali e la pelvi.
    c. Encefalopatia epatica conclamata, trattamento con lattulosio o altro trattamento per l'encefalopatia epatica.
    d. Albumina sierica <3,2 g/dL, tranne che per cause non epatiche.
    e. INR >1,4 a meno che non sia dovuto ad anticoagulanti terapeutici o a un errore di laboratorio (è necessario ripetere il test).
    - NOTA: l'INR può essere ripetuto una volta per rivalutare l'idoneità.
    f. Bilirubina totale =>2 mg/dL
    - NOTA: I pazienti con sindrome di Gilbert geneticamente confermata sono eleggibili con una bilirubina totale superiore a 1,5 × il limite superiore della norma (ULN) (ULN = 1,2) se la conta dei reticolociti è entro i limiti normali, l'emoglobina è entro i limiti normali a meno che non sia dovuta ad anemia cronica e non sia correlata all'emolisi, e la bilirubina diretta è <20% della bilirubina totale.
    4. Diagnosi di carcinoma epatocellulare (HCC) allo screening o storicamente.
    5. Punteggio LI-RADS (Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System) =>3 allo screening.
    6. Malattie della tiroide, definite dalle seguenti condizioni:
    a. Ipertiroidismo attivo.
    - NOTA: I pazienti con anamnesi di ipertiroidismo possono partecipare.
    b. Ipotiroidismo clinico non trattato, definito da:
    - Ormone stimolante la tiroide (TSH) =>7 UI/L con sintomi di ipotiroidismo,
    oppure
    - TSH =>10 UI/L senza sintomi
    - NOTA: il TSH può essere ripetuto una volta e, se non soddisfa ancora i criteri di ingresso, i pazienti saranno considerati falliti. I pazienti con ipotiroidismo clinico non trattato possono essere stabilizzati con una terapia sostitutiva a base di tiroxina e sottoposti a un nuovo screening di idoneità.
    - NOTA: durante lo screening, i pazienti che ricevono tiroxina devono assumere una dose stabile per almeno 2 settimane prima della randomizzazione, con TSH di screening =>1 e <5 UI/L. La dose di tiroxina può essere modificata una volta durante lo screening e il TSH deve essere ritestato almeno 2 settimane prima della randomizzazione (vedere la sezione 7.3.3 per i dettagli sull'aggiustamento e la stabilizzazione della dose di tiroxina).
    7. Ha una malattia autoimmune attiva, compreso il lupus attivamente trattato, l'artrite reumatoide, la malattia infiammatoria intestinale o l'epatite autoimmune che richiede un trattamento sistemico nelle ultime 12 settimane o una storia documentata di malattia autoimmune clinicamente grave, compresa la malattia epatica autoimmune, o una sindrome che richiede steroidi sistemici o agenti immunosoppressivi.
    - NOTA: I pazienti con vitiligine o asma/atopia infantile risolta costituiscono un'eccezione a questa regola. I pazienti che richiedono l'uso intermittente di broncodilatatori, corticosteroidi topici, inalati o intranasali o iniezioni locali di steroidi non sono esclusi dallo studio.
    - NOTA: I pazienti affetti da malattie autoimmuni, come l'artrite reumatoide, che assumono terapie sistemiche, possono essere eleggibili caso per caso, purché la terapia sistemica per la malattia autoimmune non sia specificamente esclusa (ad es. steroidi o agenti immunosoppressivi).
    8. Consumo di alcol di qualsiasi tipo, frequenza o quantità.
    - NOTA: il consumo di alcol non è consentito durante la fase di screening o di trattamento dello studio.
    9. Anamnesi di chirurgia bariatrica o di bypass intestinale nei 5 anni precedenti la randomizzazione o previsti durante lo svolgimento dello studio.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary endpoint is the effect of once-daily, oral administration of resmetirom versus matching placebo on NASH CP-A patients, as measured by the time to a confirmed adjudicated Composite Clinical Outcome event.
    The composite clinical outcome event is composed of all-cause mortality, liver transplant, significant hepatic events including hepatic decompensation events [ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, or gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage] and confirmed increase of MELD score from <12 to =>15.
    L'endpoint primario è l'effetto della somministrazione orale di resmetirom una volta al giorno rispetto al placebo corrispondente sui pazienti affetti da NASH CP-A, misurato in base al tempo necessario per ottenere un evento clinico composito confermato.
    L'evento clinico composito è composto da mortalità per tutte le cause, trapianto di fegato, eventi epatici significativi, tra cui eventi di scompenso epatico [ascite, encefalopatia epatica o emorragia gastroesofagea da varici] e aumento confermato del punteggio MELD da <12 a =>15.
