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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    3 patients were screened from 18-10-2007 till 07-07-2012. 2 patients were enrolled. 2 patients were randomised.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Inclusion criteria: - Diaphysary tibial non-unions will be included (minimum 9 months after first surgery) - ASA 1 and ASA 2 - Gap length/bone contact detected (cms) (1-5 cm): largest cortical gap in any radiographic incidence - Agrees to participate in post-operative evaluations and required rehabilitation regimen

    Blinding implementation details
    The evaluation of the radiographic images will be done by an independent blinded radiologist of the University Hospital of Ghent. The clinical observation of the primary endpoints a 9 months will be performed by an independent blinded clinician. The patient will be blinded as far as possible from group assignment. On several occasions the patient will be asked whether or not he knows what product was used on him. By this we will be able to monitor which patients remain blinded.

    Dosage and administration details
    Accell Plus (before: Connexus) is available in 1 ml; 2.5ml, 5 ml, 10 ml of gel or putty. It consists of 70% of human DBM (which is mainly collagen type 1) an 30 % polaxamer, a reverse phase medium that is more viscous at higher temperatures and improves handling. The polaxamer is quickly metabolised and renally excreted. In this setting, use of 5 ml dose of Accell Plus and in some with bone defects of a larger size, the need may exist to use a 10 ml dose. This is the maximum quantity of DBM allowed in this study. The product is placed directly in the dry fracture site after debridement during open surgery.
