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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.

    The primary endpoint for safety of treatment is observed toxicity assessed using the US National Cancer Institute CTCAE version 3. DLT will be recorded and MTD will be determined according to criteria described in section 5.3.3.
    All patients included at MTD will be used in the efficacy assessment. The primary endpoint for tumour response is overall RR measured and recorded using imaging techniques, CA-125 blood samples and pelvic examination. Tumour evaluations will be done according to RECIST (1) and GCIG criteria (2).
