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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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)
    The primary efficacy endpoint is HBV DNA < 400 copies/mL at Week 72. A long-term evaluation of efficacy intention-to-treat algorithm will be employed for handling missing data; the details of this algorithm will be included in a separate statistical analysis plan.

    The primary safety endpoint is cumulative incidence of at least a 6% decrease from baseline in bone mineral density of the spine through Week 72.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Week 72
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    For Week 72, secondary endpoints to be evaluated in all subjects include:
    • ALT normal,
    • composite endpoint of HBV DNA < 400 copies/mL and ALT normal,
    • HBV DNA < 169 copies/mL,
    • HBsAg loss and seroconversion,
    • cumulative incidence of at least a 6% decrease from baseline in bone mineral density of whole body,
    • percent change from baseline in bone mineral density of spine,
    • percent change from baseline in bone mineral density of whole body,
    • change in Z-score for bone mineral density of spine,
    • change in Z-score for bone mineral density of whole body, and
    • development of drug resistance mutations.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Week 72.

    At Weeks 48 and 192, secondary efficacy endpoints include all of the endpoints at Week 72, including HBV DNA < 400 copies/mL. Of note, Week 48 endpoints will not be analyzed prior to the primary efficacy analysis at Week 72, and Weeks 96 and 144 endpoints will not be analyzed prior to the Week 192 efficacy analyses.
