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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 IIIb, randomized, open, multicentre study to evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals’ HPV-16/18 L1 AS04 vaccine co-administered with GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals’ combined reduced-antigen diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis and inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine (Boostrix® Polio) in healthy female subjects aged 10–18 years.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    • To demonstrate non-inferiority of the dTpa-IPV immune response at Month 1 when dTpa-IPV is co-administered with HPV-16/18 L1 AS04 vaccine at Month 0 compared to when dTpa-IPV is administered alone at Month 0.
    Protection of trial subjects
    As with all injectable vaccines, appropriate medical treatment was always readily available in case of anaphylactic reactions following the administration of the vaccine. For this reason, the vaccinee remained under medical supervision for 30 minutes after vaccination.

    Number of subjects with booster response to diphtheria and tetanus [11]
    End point description
    Booster responses to diphtheria and tetanus were defined as: - For initially seronegative subjects (pre-vaccination titer below cut-off value of 0.1 International Units per Milliliter): antibody titers at least four times the cut-off (post-vaccination titer greater than or equal to 0.4 IU/mL), and - For initially seropositive subjects (pre-vaccination titer greater than or equal to 0.1 IU/mL): an increase in antibody titers of at least four times the pre-vaccination titer.

    Notes
    [11] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: Only subjects who had received DTPa vaccination were included in the analysis.
