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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary end point of this prospective, nonrandomized phase II trial is the clinical and molecular remission rate in response to 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Because of safety concerns at the time of protocol writing, the local radiation safety authority suggested limiting recruitment to patients age 50 years or older. Eligible patients had to have untreated, histologically confirmed, CD20FL grade 1 to 3a,10 stage II, III, or IV, bidimensionally measurable disease. In case of stage II, only patients requiring extensive radiation fields were eligible. For treatment, at least one of the following was required: presence of “B” symptoms, tumor progression more than 50% in 6 months, organ compression by tumor, bulky disease (lesions5 cm on at least one axis) or grade 3a FL. Patients were not eligible in case of bone marrow infiltration more than 25%, leukocytopenia less than 2,500/L, thrombocytopenia less than 100,000/µL, bulky disease exceeding 10 cm in the largest diameter, CNS lymphoma manifestation, circulating tumor cells more than 500/µL, pleural effusion, or ascites above 1,000 mL.
