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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of the triptorelin 3-month prolonged release (PR) formulation in suppressing luteinising hormone (LH) levels to pre-pubertal levels [defined as a peak LH ≤3 international units per liter (IU/L)] after intravenous (IV) gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) stimulation at Month 3 in Chinese children with central precocious puberty (CPP).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted under the provisions of the Declaration of Helsinki, in accordance with the Good Clinical Practice of China and in compliance with ethics committee and informed consent regulations.

    Percentage of Participants With LH Suppression After GnRH Stimulation [1]
    End point description
    The LH suppression was defined as stimulated peak LH ≤3 IU/L. The GnRH stimulation test was performed by using an intravenous (IV) injection of gonadorelin (synthetic GnRH) to stimulate gonadotrophin release and blood samples were collected after the gonadorelin injection for central assessment of serum LH levels. The modified ITT (mITT) population consisted of all treated participants with at least 1 baseline and month 3 post-baseline assessment of the primary efficacy endpoint.

    Basal LH and FSH serum concentrations were analyzed centrally. Change from baseline was defined as the values for LH and FSH at indicated timepoints minus the value at baseline. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing measurement taken prior to the first dose administered. The mITT population consisted of all treated participants with at least 1 baseline and Month 3 post-baseline assessment of the primary efficacy endpoint. Only data from the participants analyzed were reported. Here, ‘n’ = number of participants analyzed at specific time point.

    Change From Baseline in Auxological Parameter: Height
    End point description
    Auxological parameter including height was analyzed. Change from baseline was defined as the value for each auxological parameter at indicated timepoints minus the value at baseline. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing measurement taken prior to the first dose administered. The mITT population consisted of all treated participants with at least 1 baseline and Month 3 post-baseline assessment of the primary efficacy endpoint. Only data from the participants analyzed were reported. Here, ‘n’ = number of participants analyzed at specific time point.

    Participants received triptorelin pamoate 15 mg IM injection on Day 1 visit and Month 3 visit (Day 91) during the main study phase. Participants had an option to continue with the triptorelin pamoate in extension phase of the study.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    28 Oct 2020
    Introduction of extension study available for participants. Clarified how safety profile were analyzed. Extra assessments were removed since the population was at very low risk of pregnancy. For participant centricity to reduced blood draw burden and removed the requirement for children to fast. Measurement of uterine length as measurement of gonad development was normal clinical practice. For participant centricity, increasing the larger window was maximize flexibility for children at school. To clarify timing of this assessment.
    16 Mar 2021
    Added information regarding the extension phase and provide other minor changes to improved clarity regarding the main and extension phases of the study. Amended to provided distinction between the main study phase and the extension study phase. Added the requirement of reporting serious adverse events with the electronic data collection tool. The blood chemistry was to be done at site local lab, it may be different practice in different sites.
    09 Jul 2021
    Additional ±5 minutes time window for blood sample collection time point for GnRH stimulation test was added. Added temporary discontinuation due to COVID-19. Added the definition of lost follow-up and the action to be taken. Added requirement to record information on subjects who failed screening. Added medication or procedure that are not permitted. Added operational requirements for on-site administration.
