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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    1. To describe the safety and tolerability profile of valganciclovir powder for oral solution and tablets in pediatric solid organ transplant recipients 2. To determine the pharmacokinetics of ganciclovir following oral administration of valganciclovir powder for oral solution and tablets in pediatric solid organ transplant recipients 3. To describe the incidence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease
    Protection of trial subjects
    The conduct of this clinical study met all local legal and regulatory requirements. The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the declaration of Helsinki and the ICH E6: Good Clinical Practice. Before entering the study, the informed consent form was read by and explained to all participants and/or their legally authorized representative. Participants signed informed consent form and could withdraw from the study at any time without any disadvantage and without having to provide a reason for this decision. Only investigators qualified by training and experience were selected as appropriate experts to investigate the study drug. Also, the independent Data Safety Monitoring Board ensured that participants were not put at undue risk.

    Mean Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From 0 to 24 Hours of Valganciclovir [4]
    End point description
    Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) is a measure of the plasma concentration of the drug over time. The AUC 0-24hours is area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero through 24 hours after dosing. A compartmental model was used to,measure the plasma concentrations of valganciclovir. The PK analysis population was used for the analysis. One participant was not analyzed for this outcome measure as the participant underwent both a kidney and liver transplant. Here n represents number of participant with specific transplant i.e., kidney, liver, and heart.

    Number of Participants with Cytomegalovirus Disease Over Time
    End point description
    Cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease is defined as syndrome or tissue invasive disease in which CMV virus was identified in blood, urine, biopsy or other suitable specimen, which could be in conjunction with one or more of the following events: a) CMV syndrome was defined as virus present in blood or other suitable specimen, plus fever, and any of the following: leukopenia, atypical lymphocytosis, thrombopenia or elevated hepatic transaminases (for non-liver recipients). b) The diagnosis of organ specific tissue invasive CMV disease was evidence of CMV in the tissue (CMV inclusion bodies or in situ detection of CMV antigen or DNA), plus signs/symptoms of organ dysfunction. Safety population was used for the analysis.

    Treatment failure was defined as either the development of CMV (viremia, antigenemia or test positive) requiring treatment up to day 100 post-transplant (ie, while undergoing prophylaxis with valganciclovir up to day 100) or discontinuation of study medication due to lack of efficacy or to toxicity. ITT population was used for the analysis.

    Mean Maximum Plasma Concentration of Valganciclovir Over Time
    End point description
    Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) is defined as the maximum observed plasma concentration of Valganciclovir. Participants with kidney, liver and heart transplant were analysed. The PK analysis population was used for the analysis. One participant was not analyzed for this outcome measure as the participant underwent both a kidney and liver transplant. Here n represents number of participant with specific transplant i.e., kidney, liver, and heart.
