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

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The aim of this pilot study is to investigate the acute effects of ascorbic acid supplementation on systemic and pulmonary endothelial function in the immediate post-operative period following AAA repair.
    Protection of trial subjects
    A DMEC was appointed which was independent of the study team. The DMEC functioned primarily as a check for safety, reviewing adverse events. The DMEC reported to the Sponsor via the principal investigator.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Adult patients admitted for elective open repair of AAA in the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast were screened for eligibility for participation in the study from December 2007 to July 2009.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Exclusion criteria were age less than 18 years old, a history of hyperoxaluria or glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, prior antioxidant therapy, known allergy to ascorbic acid or to anaesthetic agents specified in anaesthetic protocol, participation in another intervention trial within 30 days or a lack of consent.

    Blinding implementation details
    Patients received IV ascorbic acid 2g in 250 ml 0.9% saline or 250 ml 0.9% saline placebo. The randomization assignments were concealed in sealed, tamper-proof envelopes that were opened sequentially by an independent pharmacist. When an eligible subject was recruited, the pharmacist allocated the subject to the designated treatment group, maintaining blinding. Ascorbic acid and 0.9% saline were prepared by the independent pharmacist and had an identical appearance.
