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   43850   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.

    To assess the efficacy of subcutaneous certolizumab pegol 400 mg in patients suffering from Crohn's disease at week 0, 2, 4 and 8. efficacy will be assessed using the CDEIS (Crohn's Disease Endoscopic Index of Severity) score at week 10 compared to baseline.

    To assess the efficacy of subcutaneous certolizumab pegol 400 mg in patients suffering from Crohn's disease evaluated as the proportion of patients achieving mucosal healing (defined as complete absence of mucosal ulcerations) at week 10.

    To assess the clinical efficacy of subcutaneous certolizumab pegol 400 mg in patients suffering from Crohn's disease evaluated as improvement from the baseline in the mean histological Crohn's disease score (9) (combines active inflammatory changes: infiltration of mononuclear cells, polymorphonuclear cells, presence of erosions and/or ulcers, and chronic architectural changes) at week 10.

    To assess the clinical efficacy of subcutaneous certolizumab pegol 400 mg in patients suffering from Crohn's disease evaluated as proportion of patients achieving clinical response (defined as a decrease of at least 100 points on CDAI score) at week 10.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary efficacy variable is the mean change form the baseline of CDEIS score at week 10. The mean of primary efficacy endpoint, the change at week 10 from baseline in the CDEIS score, will be presented with a 95% confidence interval. It will be assumed that the endpoint is normally distributed for the purposes of the confidence interval calculation. The distribution of the endpoint will be plotted as a histogram and if it is found that the data do not appear to be normal then alternate methods will be used. These could include transforming the original data or a non-parametric 95% confidence interval around the median. Further some prognostic factors will also be investigated.
