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   43845   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.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The primary efficacy endpoint is overall survival (OS) of the sorafenib in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin group versus placebo in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel group. All randomized patients (ITT Population) will be included in the primary analyses. One-sided alpha of 0.025 will be used for the OS analysis.
    Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Patients alive at the time of analysis will be censored at their last date of follow-up.
    In the analysis of OS, the two treatment groups (sorafenib and placebo) will be compared using a one-sided log-rank test with an overall alpha of 0.025 stratified by the same stratification factors as randomization: ECOG PS (0 vs. 1), histology (squamous vs. non-squamous), Stage ( IIIB with pleural or pericardial effusion vs. Stage IV), and region (core [consisting of North America, Northern/Western Europe and Australia] vs. non-core [consisting of South America, Eastern Europe and Asia-Pacific]). Kaplan-Meier estimates and survival curves will also be presented for each treatment group.
