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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

(c) the proportion of subjects with a measured GFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 at 24 months. (d) measured GFR at 3 and 24 months, and change from baseline (3 months) to 12 months and to 24 months. Please see the protocol for additional secondary and tertiary objectives. + Additional assessments as per Protocol Amendment 09 - Long-Term Extension (See Protocol Appendix 04, section 2.2)
    Valutare gli effetti del Belatacept rispetto alla Ciclosporina nei confronti della misura del GFR a 12 mesi e della biopsia CAN a 12 mesi Valutare gli effetti del Belatacept rispetto alla Ciclosporina nei confronti: 1.di ogni componente dell`endpoint primario composito da: misura del GFR a valori &lt;60mL/min/1.73m2 a 12 mesi o dalla diminuzione del valore del GFR a valori maggiori o uguali 10mL/min/1.73m2 dal mese 3 al mese 12 2.dell` endpoint composito da tre fattori: AR,perdita del trapianto e decesso a 12,24 e 36 mesi 3.della porzione di pazienti con un valore di GFR &lt;60mL/min/1.73m2 a 24 mesi 4.del valore del GFR a 3 e 24 mesi,modifiche di esso dal baseline (3 mesi) a 12 e a 24 mesi.Fare riferimento al protocollo per ulteriori dettagli relativi agli obiettivi secondari e terziari + valutazioni aggiuntive come da Emendamento al protocollo numero 9- Long term extension (cfr.Appendix 04 sezione 2.2 del protocollo).

It should be noted that according to the US product information for mycophenolate mofetil (CellCept), two reliable forms of contraception must be used simultaneously unless abstinence is the chosen method. Inclusion criteria for participation in Protocol Amendment 06 - Long-Term Extension: 6) Subjects must be willing to participate and provide signed, written informed consent for this long term extension phase. 7) Subjects must have completed 3 years in the IM103027 study (through Month 36) and remained on study treatment (belatacept or cyclosporine) 8) Subjects must be willing and able to continue therapy with MMF.
