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 ).

    Notes
    [12] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.

    Adverse events information
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Solicited symptoms reported during the 8-day and unsolicited AEs during the 31-day follow-up period after primary vaccination. SAEs reported during the primary course of the study (Month 0 up to 2). For booster data, refer to the specific endpoints.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    The solicited local and general symptoms were only collected from those subjects who filled in their symptom sheets. Except for the 5 toddlers (T) primary groups, the Total Number (#) of Participants Affected by Other (non-serious) Adverse Events (AEs) is currently populated by the highest value of #Participants affected within other AE’s table.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Feb 2005
    Due to logistic changes, the vial containing the formulation without spacer of the candidate MenACWY-TT vaccine differs slightly in appearance from the vials containing the 3 different formulations with spacer. Therefore the three different formulations with spacer of the candidate MenACWY-TT vaccine (F1, F2 and F3) will be administered in a double-blind manner with respect to each other, however they will be single-blinded with respect to the formulation without spacer (F4). The requirements for regulatory reporting of SAEs have been changed to comply with new regulations following the European Union Clinical Trial Directive, and to align with GSK Biologicals’ standard operating procedures.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
