Long Term Safety of Clopidogrel in Neonates/Infants With Systemic to Pulmonary Artery Shunt Palliation (CLARINET LT)

August 18, 2011 updated by: Sanofi

Long Term Safety Study in Patients Included in the CLARINET Study With Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease Palliated With a Systemic-to-pulmonary Artery Shunt and for Whom the Shunt is Still in Place at One Year of Age

This study is the extension of the CLARINET study [NCT00396877 -EFC5314] in neonates or infants with cyanotic congenital heart disease palliated with a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt.

The primary objective was to assess the safety up to 18 months of age of the extended use of Clopidogrel 0.2 mg/kg/day in patients for whom the shunt was still in place at one year of age.

The secondary objective was to assess the efficacy on the occurrence of shunt thrombosis requiring intervention or any death.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients remained in the treatment group to which they were originally allocated for the CLARINET study and continued blindly their treatment (0.2 mg/kg/day of clopidogrel or placebo) up to the occurrence of shunt thrombosis, next surgical procedure for correction of the congenital heart disease, death, or 18 months of age, whichever came first. The maximum treatment duration were 6 months.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

49

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

1 year and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients randomized in the CLARINET study,
  • Still receiving the study drug,
  • Palliative systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt still in place at 1 year of age,
  • Investigator's decision to continue based on his/her judgment of the expected benefit / risk of continuing treatment with study drug,
  • Signed informed consent to participate in the long-term safety study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Bleeding Events
Time Frame: Up to a maximum of 6 months

All bleeding events experienced during the study period were collected as for any Adverse Event.

The 'on-treatment' period was defined as the period from inclusion in the extension study up to 28 days after treatment discontinuation, and participants who experienced bleeding events during that period were counted.
Up to a maximum of 6 months
Number of Participants According to Bleeding Type/Etiology
Time Frame: Up to a maximum of 6 months
For all reported bleeding events, the type and the etiology of the bleeding event were collected. Participants who experienced bleeding events during the 'on-treatment period' were counted by bleeding type and etiology.
Up to a maximum of 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Shunt Thrombosis Requiring Intervention or Deaths
Time Frame: Up to a maximum of 6 months

Outcome events, shunt thrombosis requiring intervention or death, experienced during the study period were recorded.

Participants were counted excluding the events that occured after the participant's protocol study end (occurrence of shunt thrombosis, next surgical procedure for correction of the congenital heart disease, death, or 18 months of age, whichever came first).
Up to a maximum of 6 months
