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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    To evaluate usability of AI assessed by patient (POST-self-injection assessment questionnaire [SIAQ]) at Week 2
    Protection of trial subjects
    For hypersensitivity monitoring, vital signs (including systolic and diastolic BP, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature) will be monitored prior to the study drug injection (within 15 minutes) and at 1 hour (±15 minutes) after the study drug injection. In addition, any type of ECG will be performed for hypersensitivity monitoring 1 hour (±15 minutes) after the study drug injection. Emergency equipment, such as adrenaline, antihistamines, corticosteroids, and respiratory support including inhalational therapy, oxygen, and artificial ventilator will be available. For patients who experienced anaphylaxis or other serious treatment-related hypersensitivity reaction, study drug must be stopped immediately and discontinue study drug. If patients develop laboratory abnormalities in liver enzyme (ALT and/or AST), ANC, or platelet, or develops a serious infection, an opportunistic infection, or sepsis, the dose of concomitant DMARDs should be modified or dosing stopped and/or study drug (CT-P47) dosing regimen modified until the clinical situation has been evaluated and controlled.

    Primary: The Usability of AI as Assessed by Patients Rating Using POST-Self-Injection Assessment Questionnaire (SIAQ) at Week 2.

    End point title
    The Usability of AI as Assessed by Patients Rating Using POST-Self-Injection Assessment Questionnaire (SIAQ) at Week 2. [1]
    End point description
    Usability was assessed using the SIAQ prior to and after self-injection of CT-P47 via AI at Week 0 and 2. The PRE module of the SIAQ is a 7-item questionnaire that investigates 3 domains such as feelings about injections, selfconfidence (regarding self-administration), and satisfaction with self-injection. The POST module of the SIAQ is a 27-item questionnaire that assesses 6 domains such as feelings about injection, self-image, self-confidence (regarding self-administration), pain and skin reactions during or after the injection (injection-site reactions), ease of use of the selfinjection device (AI), and satisfaction with self-injection. Item scores were transformed to obtain a score ranging from 0 (worst experience) to 10 (best experience) for each item.

    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No statistical analysis have been conducted since it is an open-label study to evaluate patient usability of the device as a primary endpoint.

    End point description
    Patient’s ability to successfully follow the steps in the printed instruction for use to self-administer the study drug was assessed using the self-injection assessment checklist. The self-injection assessment was coded as successful if N7, N9, N10 and N11 of the self-injection assessment checklist were checked as “Yes”. In addition, the successful completion of all 14 instructions will be assessed from the self-injection assessment checklist. The summary table displayed the number and percentage of patient’s successful self-injection and patient’s successful completion of all 14 instructions. All answers for checklists were listed along with whether the self-injection was successful, and all instructions were completed.

    Mean Change From Baseline in DAS28 (CRP and ESR)
    End point description
    DAS28 (ESR) was calculated using the following formula: DAS28 (ESR) = 0.56 X SQRT(TJC28) + 0.28 X SQRT(SJC28) + 0.70 X ln(ESR) + 0.014 X GH on VAS. DAS28 (ESR) provides a number on a scale from 0 to 10 with higher values indicating greater RA disease activity. DAS28 (CRP) was calculated using the following formula: DAS28 (CRP) = 0.56 X SQRT(TJC28) + 0.28 X SQRT(SJC28) + 0.36 X ln(CRP+1) + 0.014 X GH on VAS + 0.96. DAS28 (CRP) provides a number on a scale from 0 to 10 with higher values indicating greater RA disease activity. Abbreviations: CRP, C-reactive protein; DAS28, Disease Activity Score using 28 joint counts; ESR, Erythrocyte sedimentation rate; GH, patient’s global disease activity measured on 100 mm VAS; VAS, visual analogue scale.
