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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A phase II, observer-blind, randomized study to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals’ combined DSSITGDPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine containing diphtheria toxoid from the Statens Serum Institute (SSI) of Denmark and tetanus toxoid from GSK Biologicals’ Kft [GD], compared to the currently licensed GSK Biologicals’ DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (Infanrix hexa) when administered to healthy infants at 2, 3 and 4 months of age.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that the immunogenicity of the DSSITGDPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (preservative-free formulation) in terms of antibody response to all vaccine antigens is non-inferior to that of the DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine, one month after a three-dose primary vaccination course.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Vaccines were administered by qualified and trained personnel. Vaccines were administered only to eligible subjects that had no contraindications to any components of the vaccines.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    16 Nov 2006
    Amendment 2 GSK Biologicals is currently validating new providers of the diphtheria toxoid (Statens Serum Institute [SSI], Denmark) and of the tetanus toxoid (GSK Biologicals Korlatolt Felelossegu Tarsasag [Kft] in Gödöllö [GD], Hungary) for inclusion in DTPa based vaccines. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the immunogenicity of the hexavalent DSSITGDPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine containing diphtheria toxoid provided by the Statens Serum Institute of Denmark (DSSI) and tetanus toxoid provided by GSK Biologicals Kft in Gödöllö (TGD) is non-inferior to the immunogenicity of the currently licensed formulation of the vaccine. The vaccine will be administered as a primary vaccination course to healthy infants at 2, 3 and 4 months of age and its safety and reactogenicity will also be assessed. Two formulations of the DSSITGDPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine will be evaluated: one in which the vaccine will be manufactured according to the new preservative-free process and the other in which the vaccine will be manufactured with preservative as the currently licensed formulation.
