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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    CO-PRIMARY OBJECTIVES • To demonstrate the overall (direct and indirect) effectiveness of GSK Biologicals’ HPV-16/18 vaccine in reducing the prevalence of HPV-16/18 genital infection in females approximately 18.5 years of age following community-based vaccination of 12 - 15 year old females only (Arm B versus Arm C). • To demonstrate the overall (direct and indirect) effectiveness of GSK Biologicals’ HPV-16/18 vaccine in reducing the prevalence of HPV-16/18 genital infection in females approximately 18.5 years of age, following community-based vaccination of 12 - 15 year old females and males (Arm A versus Arm C).
    Protection of trial subjects
    All subjects were supervised closely for at least 30 minutes following vaccination with appropriate medical treatment readily available. Vaccines were administered by qualified and trained personnel. Vaccines/products were administered only to eligible subjects that had no contraindications to any components of the vaccines. Subjects were followed-up from the time the subject consents to participate in the study until she/he is discharged.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Immunisation phase (Visit 1 at Day 0 to Phone contact at Month 12) = adolescents (birth cohorts 1992-95) were vaccinated with Cervarix™ or Engerix™-B vaccine. Effectiveness evaluation phase (Visit 5) = the impact of the vaccine intervention was assessed on female subjects of approximately 18.5 years of age.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    At the time when the study was initiated, the Cervarix™ vaccine was not licensed for use in boys; therefore, male adolescents from communities who received Cervarix™ vaccine were considered to be part of a Phase III trial.

    Blinding implementation details
    All subjects knew of the intervention Arm their community had been assigned to (Arm A, B or C – see Treatment Section below). Blinding was as follows: - Study participants in Arm A communities and female study participants in Arm B communities were blinded to their treatment allocation (HPV or HBV vaccine). - Study participants (males and females) in Arm C communities and male study participants in Arm B communities were aware of their treatment allocation as they all received HBV vaccine.
