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   43857   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of Vivaglobin in PUPs with PID common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) or X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), who were free of serious bacterial infections (SBIs) at initiation of therapy. The primary efficacy objective of this open-label study was to assess whether subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIG) treatment with a loading dose of Vivaglobin of 100 mg/kg bw for 5 consecutive days resulted in an immunoglobulin G (IgG) increase to ≥5 g/L as measured on Day 12 after initiation of SCIG therapy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was carried out in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice guidelines, and standard operating procedures for clinical research and development at CSL Behring (CSLB). The study protocol and all amendments were approved by the Independent Ethics Committee(s) (IECs) / Institutional Review Board(s) (IRBs) of the participating centers. Before undergoing screening procedures for possible enrollment into the study, subjects were informed, in an understandable form, about the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study. The investigator was responsible for obtaining a subject’s written informed consent to participate in the study. The investigator may cease study treatment and withdraw the subject, or the subject may withdraw himself from participation in the study at any time. If a subject is withdrawn from the study or further participation is declined, the subject will continue to have access to medical care and will be treated according to routine medical practice, but will no longer receive the investigational medicinal product (IMP).

    Number of Subjects With Local Reactions by Severity and Relatedness
    End point description
    Local reactions included: infusion site erythema, infusion site pain, infusion site pruritus, infusion site rash, infusion site reaction, infusion site swelling, injection site bruising, injection site erythema, injection site irritation, injection site pruritus, injection site swelling, edema peripheral, tenderness, erythema, pruritus, and skin swelling. Mild AE: Did not interfere with activities; Moderate AE: Interfered somewhat with routine activities; Severe AE: Impossible to perform routine activities. Not related: Explained by factors not involving the drug, no temporal relationship; Possibly related: Occurred within a reasonable time of administration, could also be explained by concurrent disease or other drugs; Probably related: Compelling temporal relationship, could not be explained concurrent disease/other drugs; Related AE: Compelling temporal relationship, known/suspected response to the drug confirmed by improvement on stopping.
