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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To confirm the added effect of acarbose in EMP16-120/40 on efficacy after a 26-week period of oral treatment compared with MR-O and Conv-O
    Protection of trial subjects
    Each potential study subject was given adequate verbal and written information before any study specific assessments were performed. The information included the objectives and the procedures of the study as well as any risks or inconvenience involved. It was emphasised that participation in the study was voluntary and that the subject could withdraw from participation at any time and for any reason, without any prejudice. All subjects were given the opportunity to ask questions about the study and were given sufficient time to consider participation before signing the ICF. Before performing any studyrelated procedures, the ICF was signed and personally dated by the subject and by the Investigator. A copy of the subject information including the signed ICF was provided to the subject. The ICF included information that data were to be recorded, collected and processed and could be transferred to European Economic Area (EEA) or non-EEA countries. In accordance with the EU general data protection regulation (GDPR), Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the data will not identify any persons taking part in the study. The subject had the right to request access to their personal data and to request rectification of any data that were not correct and/or complete, in accordance with the EU GDPR Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

    Relative (%) change from baseline in body weight at week 26
    End point description
    Weight was measured in kg (one decimal) without shoes and without thick clothes such as jumpers. Weight at Visit 2 was compared with weight at Visit 1 prior to randomization, to ensure that the participant was not meeting exclusion criteria. The mean±SD relative change from baseline in body weight at week 26 was -7.73±6.03% for the EMP16-120/40 group as compared to -5.78±5.29% and -5.13±4.59% for the MR-O and Conv-O groups, respectively. The treatment effect of EMP16-120/40 was statistically significant compared to both MR-O (-2.37%) and Conv-O (-2.64%).

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    AEs (including serious AEs [SAEs]) were collected from the start of IMP administration until the end-of-trial visit at week 26.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    The grading of the severity/intensity (grade 1 to grade 5) of AEs followed the common terminology criteria for AEs (CTCAE) v5.0. AEs were assessed as unlikely, possibly or probably related to the IMP. Fecal incontinence and/or oily spotting were documented as AEs of special interest (AESI) and the level of discomfort was rated by the participants.
