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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    The primary efficacy endpoint of the study is the proportion of patients that have achieved a response during 6 months of treatment with the study drug. The best overall response (BOR) for each patient is the best ‘objective overall response’ (ORR) recorded on CRF from the start of treatment until 6 months of treatment with the study drug has been completed. The efficacy variable ORR will be determined on CT/MRI evaluation and biochemical results using the modified RECIST criteria. The proportion of patients that have achieved a response will be the sum of the BOR (only CR, CRu and PR) as a percentage of all patients.
