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   43841   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7281   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.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Primary endpoint consists of a composite endpoint concerning meaningful improvement across 2 of 3 Sjögren’s syndrome disease domains: oral, ocular, and laboratory tests. Oral improvement will be defined as ≥20% in the patient’s assessment of dry eyes (on a 100 mm VAS) or ≥20% improvement in total unstimulated salivary flow. Ocular improvement will be difined as ≥20% improvement in either the patient’s assessment of dry eyes by VAS or the results of the Schirmer test without anaesthetic. Laboratory improvement will be defined as ≥20% improvement in the serum IgG or the ESR.
