Apremilast Pregnancy Exposure Registry

Study Purpose

The purpose of the Apremilast Pregnancy Exposure Registry is to monitor planned and unplanned pregnancies exposed to apremilast and to evaluate the safety of this medication relative to specified pregnancy outcomes, and to evaluate potential effects of prenatal apremilast exposure on infant health status through one year of age.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Yes
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT02775500
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

The Apremilast Pregnancy Exposure Registry (Registry) is a United States (U.S.) based registry designed to monitor planned or unplanned pregnancies exposed to apremilast when used to treat an approved indication in accordance with the current approved prescribing information, who reside in the U.S. or Canada. The goal of the Registry is to conduct an observational, controlled prospective cohort study that will involve follow-up of live born infants to one year of age. The primary objective of the Registry is to evaluate any potential increase in the risk of major birth defects, specifically a pattern of anomalies, in apremilast exposed pregnancies compared to the primary comparison group of disease-matched unexposed pregnancies. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the potential effect of exposure relative to the secondary comparison group of healthy pregnant women, and the effect of exposure on other adverse pregnancy outcomes including spontaneous abortion or stillbirth, preterm delivery, reduced infant birth size, a pattern of minor malformations, postnatal growth of live born children to one year of age, and incidence of serious or opportunistic infections or malignancies in live born children up to one year of age. The Pregnancy Exposure Registry is sponsored by Celgene Corporation and is conducted by the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists (OTIS) Research Group and is administered by investigators at the coordinating site located at the University of California, San Diego. The study is planned for seven years.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Apremilast-Exposed Cohort

Women who have been exposed to apremilast in pregnancy for an approved indication in the first trimester of pregnancy for any length of time from the date of conception.

: Diseased Comparison Cohort

Women with an approved disease who have not been exposed to apremilast at any time in pregnancy.

: Healthy Comparison Cohort

Healthy women who have no diagnosis of an approved indication or other chronic illness, have not taken apremilast in pregnancy, nor have they been exposed to any known human teratogen during pregnancy.

: Apremilast-Exposed Registry Group

Women who have been exposed to apremilast in pregnancy, for any length of time following the first day of the last menstrual period until the end of pregnancy who do not qualify for the prospective cohort study.
