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   43839   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7280   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.8.8 Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
    A total of 400 deaths in the two treatment arms at the time of the final analysis will provide 80% power to detect a 33% improvement in median survival in the CG1940 and CG8711 arm (24 months) compared to median survival of 18 months in the docetaxel and prednisone arm. This assumes use of a two-sided log-rank test with an overall alpha level of 0.05. It is assumed that 600 patients in a four-year trial will permit observation of 400 deaths.
