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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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.

    Ambulatory arthroscopic knee surgery
    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate superior efficacy of preemptive dosing with lumiracoxib 400 mg compared to post-operative dosing with lumiracoxib 400 mg in reducing pain intensity (PI) in the target knee after movement at the 2 hour time-point, using a 0-100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS), in patients who have had ambulatory arthroscopic knee surgery.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Secondary objectives of this study are to assess in patients who have had ambulatory artroscopic knee surgery, the efficacy of preemptive dosing with lumiracoxib compared to post-operative dosing with respect to:
    • PI on a 0-100 mm VAS at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 24 hour time-points while at rest,
    • PI on a 0-100 mm VAS at 1, 3, 4 and 24 hour time-points after movement,
    • time to first rescue medication intake,
    • the patient’s global evaluation of response to study medication, and
    to assess the safety and tolerability profile of lumiracoxib.
