An international multi-centre one-year trial of effects and side-effects of CRD007 tablets for treatment of aneurysm (dilation) of the aorta (the largest artery in the body) in the abdominal cavity.

An international, multi-centre, randomised, stratified, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, 4-parallel group trial investigating the efficacy and safety of three different dose levels of CRD007 administered twice daily for 1 year to subjects with AAA (The AORTA trial). - CRD007 for the treatment of AAA

Conditions

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a dilatation of the aorta as it passes through the abdomen, defined as a dilatation of the infra-renal aorta to a diameter of 30 mm. AAA is generally asymptomatic and the greatest concern is the risk of rupture, which causes severe pain, massive internal hemorrhage, and, without prompt treatment, death. MedDRA version: 14.1 Level: LLT Classification code 10000054 Term: Abdominal aortic aneurysm System Organ Class: 10047065 - Vascular disorders

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate the optimal oral dose of CRD007 (10 mg, 25 mg and 40 mg tablets) in comparison to matching placebo tablets with respect to efficacy in terms of change in maximum aortic diameter after 12 months of treatment (b.i.d.) as assessed by measurement method A (based on measurement perfromed during systole).;Secondary Objective: • To compare CRD007 (10 mg, 25 mg and 40 mg tablets) to matching placebo tablets with respect to efficacy in terms of change in maximum aortic diameter after 12 months of treatment (b.i.d.) as assessed by measurement method A (based on measurement performed during diastole) - To compare CRD007 (10 mg, 25 mg and 40 mg tablets) to matching placebo tablets with respect to efficacy in terms of change in maximum aortic diameter after 12 months of treatment (b.i.d.) as assessed by measurement method B • To compare CRD007 (10 mg, 25 mg and 40 mg tablets) to matching placebo tablets with respect to efficacy in terms of change in maximum aortic diameter after 6 months of treatment (b.i.d.) as assessed by measurement method A and B • To compare CRD007 (10 mg, 25 mg and 40 mg tablets) to matching placebo tablets with respect to efficacy in terms of incidence and time to maximum aortic diameter of 50 mm as assessed by measurement method A and B;Primary end point(s): Absolute change in maximum aortic diameter from screening (Visit 1) to 12 months of treatment (Visit 7) as assessed by measurement method A.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint is evaluated after 12 months of treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • Absolute change in maximum aortic diameter from screening (Visit 1) to 12 months of treatment (Visit 7) as assessed by measurement method B3 • Absolute change in maximum aortic diameter from screening (Visit 1) to 6 months of treatment (Visit 5) as assessed by both measurement method A and B3 • Incidence and time to maximum aortic diameter of 50 mm as assessed by measurement method A and B3 • Incidence and time to clinical events of special interest - Acute or elective aneurysm repair - Aneurysm rupture - Major cardiovascular events - Other clinical events of special interest - Death (any cause) • Biomarkers • Adverse events • ECG assessments • Blood pressure and pulse • Haematology, serum chemistry and liver function parameters;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: •The evaluation of change in maximum aortic diameter after 6 and 12 months of treatment • Incidencee and time to clinical event: any time during the treatment • Biomarkers: after 12 months treatment • Adverse events: at each clinical visit (week 1, 13, 26, 39 and 52 of treatment) • ECG assessment: after 12 months treatment • Blood pressure and pulse: at each clinical visit (week 1, 13, 26, 39 and 52 of treatment) • Haematology, serum chemistry and liver function parameters: after 13, 26, 39 and 52 weeks treatment
