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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    Evaluar la seguridad a largo plazo de Exelon® en cápsula (12 mg/día) durante un período de 76 semanas mediante valoración del empeoramiento de los síntomas motores subyacentes de la EP en pacientes con DEP leve a moderadamente grave. El objetivo primario se evaluará midiendo:
    • Las reacciones adversas (RA) predefinidas debidas, o potencialmente debidas a, la exacerbación de los síntomas motores de la EP (temblor, rigidez muscular, bradicinesia, caídas)
    • Interrupciones del fármaco del estudio como consecuencia de RA predefinidas secundarias, o potencialmente secundarias, a una exacerbación de los síntomas motores de la EP (temblor, rigidez muscular, bradicinesia, caídas)
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    * Evaluar la seguridad a largo plazo de Exelon® en cápsula (12 mg/día) durante un período de 76 semanas mediante valoración del empeoramiento de los síntomas motores subyacentes de la EP en pacientes con DEP leve a moderadamente grave.
    *Evaluar el efecto de Exelon® en cápsula y en parche
    *Evaluar la eficacia de Exelon® en cápsula y en parche basándose en: la función cognitiva, los síntomas neuropsiquiátricos, la capacidad de llevar a cabo las actividades básicas y complejas de la vida diaria.
    *Evaluar la eficacia, la seguridad y la tolerabilidad (incluida la incidencia de reacciones adversas gastrointestinales, el empeoramiento de los síntomas motores de EP y el flujo espiratorio máximo) de Exelon® en cápsula y en parche.
    *Evaluar la adhesividad del parche de Exelon® en los pacientes con EA y DEP.
    *Analizar el impacto de los genotipos ApoE y BuChE y de los biomarcadores inflamatorios en variables de seguridad y eficacia.

    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Analysis of the primary objective(s):
    - The two primary variables are:
