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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 ).

    Percentage of Subjects Achieving Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28) Remission (DAS28 < 2.6) at Weeks 24 and 48
    End point description
    The Disease Activity Score (DAS28) score is a measure of the subject's disease activity. It is based on the tender joint count (28 joints), swollen joint count (28 joints), patient's global assessment of disease activity and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). DAS28 total scores range from 0 to approximately 10. Scores below 2.6 indicate best disease control and scores above 5.1 indicate worse disease control. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement. ITT population included all randomised subjects who had received any part of an infusion of study medication. Here, the number of subjects analysed signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint. 'n' signifies the number of subjects evaluated at a specified time point.

    Change From Baseline in DAS28 at Weeks 24 and 48
    End point description
    The Disease Activity Score (DAS28) score is a measure of the subject's disease activity. It is based on the tender joint count (28 joints), swollen joint count (28 joints), patient's global assessment of disease activity and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). DAS28 total scores range from 0 to approximately 10. Scores below 2.6 indicate best disease control and scores above 5.1 indicate worse disease control. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement. ITT population included all randomised subjects who had received any part of an infusion of study medication. Here, the number of subjects analysed signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint. 'n' signifies the number of subjects evaluated at a specified time point.

    Percentage of Subjects With a Reduction in Modified Total Sharp Score (mTSS) From Baseline at Week 48
    End point description
    mTSS: measure of joint damage that combines scores for bone erosion and joint space narrowing (JNS). Erosion score: total of 14 locations in each hand and wrist and 6 joints in the foot were evaluated for erosion using an 8-point scale where 0=normal to 3.5=very severe erosion. JNS score: total of 13 locations in each hand and wrist and 6 joints in the foot were evaluated for joint narrowing score using a 9-point scale where 0=normal to 4.0=definite ankylosis (stiffness or fixation of a joint). mTSS scores ranged from 0 (normal) to 292 (worst possible total score). Change= mTSS score at Week 24 minus score at baseline. An increase in mTSS from baseline represents disease progression and/or joint worsening, no change represents halting of disease progression, and a decrease represents improvement. mITT population.

    Percentage of Subjects With a Reduction of Greater Than or Equal to 0.25 Units in the HAQ-DI Score at Weeks 24 and 48
    End point description
    HAQ-DI is a self-completed patient questionnaire specific for Rheumatoid Arthritis. It consists of 20 questions referring to 8 domains: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip; common daily activities. Each domain has at least 2 component questions. There are 4 possible responses for each component 0=without any difficulty 1=with some difficulty 2=with much difficulty 3=unable to do. Calculate HAQ-DI the patient must have a domain score for at least 6 of 8 domains. The HAQ-DI is the sum of the scores, divided by the number of domains that have a score (in range 6-8) for a total possible score minimum/maximum 0 (best) to 3 (worst). A negative change from baseline indicated improvement. ITT population included all randomised subjects who had received any part of an infusion of study medication. Here, the number of subjects analysed signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint. 'n' signifies the number of subjects evaluated at a specified time point.

    Change From Baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-F) Fatigue Assessment at Weeks 24 and 48
    End point description
    The FACIT-Fatigue score was calculated according to a 13-item questionnaire that assesses self-reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function. Participants scored each item on a 5-point scale: 0 (Not at all) to 4 (Very much). The larger the participant's response to the questions (with the exception of 2 negatively stated), the greater the participant's fatigue. For all questions, except for the 2 negatively stated ones, the code was reversed and a new score was calculated as (4 minus the participant's response). The sum of all responses resulted in the FACIT-Fatigue score for a total possible score of 0 (worst score) to 52 (best score). ITT population included all randomised subjects who had received any part of an infusion of study medication. Here, the number of subjects analysed signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint. 'n' signifies the number of subjects evaluated at a specified time point.

    Change From Baseline in Pain Quality and Impact of Pain on Daily Function Measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Short Form at Weeks 24 and 48
    End point description
    The modified BPI (short-form) is a short questionnaire to assess the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions. The first two questions relate to average and current pain respectively and are assessed on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no pain, and 10 represents pain as bad as one can imagine. The degree to which pain has interfered with 7 different aspects is also rated on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 represents that pain does not interfere and 10 that pain completely interferes. ITT population included all randomised subjects who had received any part of an infusion of study medication. Here, the number of subjects analysed signifies subjects evaluated for this endpoint.
