About this study

Official title: Extension of Protocol HMR1726D/2001, A Phase II Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Teriflunomide (HMR1726) in Multiple Sclerosis With Relapses

The primary objective is to assess the long-term safety of teriflunomide in multiple sclerosis subjects. The secondary objective is to assess the long-term efficacy.

Read the detailed description

Subjects completing the HMR 1726D/2001 study are given the opportunity to continue or switch to teriflunomide for 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives;

  • subjects on Teriflunomide 7 mg or 14 mg continue on the same dose of teriflunomide.
  • subjects on placebo are randomized to teriflunomide 7 mg or 14 mg.

The total study period per subject is 532 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives, broken up as follows:

  • Treatment: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives,
  • Post-washout follow-up: 4 weeks after last treatment intake.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: Up to a maximum of 532 weeks (4 weeks after last treatment intake) or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Annualized relapse rate (number of relapses per patient-year)

    Measured: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

  2. Change from baseline in Kurtzke Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score

    Measured: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

  3. Change from baseline in Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) score

    Measured: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

  4. Burden of disease : Change from baseline in the volume of abnormal brain tissue as measured by brain Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI)

    Measured: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

  5. Change from baseline in Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life Questionnaire-54 (MSQoL-54) score

    Measured: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

  6. Change from baseline in subject reported fatigue as assessed by the Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS)

    Measured: 528 weeks or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing teriflunomide (HMR1726) in people with Multiple Sclerosis, run by Sanofi at 16 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in Canada, France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients with adverse events (time frame: Up to a maximum of 532 weeks (4 weeks after last treatment intake) or until teriflunomide is commercially available in the country where patient lives). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00228163, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Mar 2015.
