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   43843   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.

    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    - to compare the effect of the two combinations of ciclesonide (320 µg/day) and formoterol (9 µg/day or 18 µg/day) administered once daily in the evening versus monotherapy of formoterol (18 µg od in the evening) on time to first experience of lack of efficacy (LOE)

    - to estimate the effect sizes for the comparisons of two combinations of ciclesonide (320 µg/day) and formoterol (9 µg/day or 18 µg/day) administered once daily in the evening versus monotherapy of ciclesonide (320 µg od in the evening) and monotherapy of formoterol (18 µg od in the evening) with regard to 24 h serial measurements of pulmonary function as well as trough FEV1
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - the safety and tolerability of 8-week treatment with a fixed combination of ciclesonide and formoterol administered od in the evening in comparison to monotherapy with either formoterol or ciclesonide, e.g. by assessing adverse events, physical exami-nations, ECG and vital signs
