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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of continuous infusion of WILFACTIN for the prevention of perioperative bleeding in subjects with severe von Willebrand Disease undergoing elective major surgery.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Blood sampling usually done for laboratory testing presents a potential discomfort and the associated risks are slight pain at the site, feeling light-headed, bruising and, exceptionally, local infection as well as bleeding from the site of the puncture. However, all precautionary measures will be taken to minimizes potential side effects. Continuous infusion, through a catheter placed in a vein in the arm, is also advantageous in that it avoids repeat injections and minimises pain and injury in the vein due to many needle punctures.

    The pre-Continuous infusion period started with: ▪ An extra bolus injection of vWF SD-35-DHD 12-24 hours before surgery (on D-1) if the subject's baseline FVIII:C levels was < 0.5 IU/mL. ▪ A loading dose 2 hours before the surgery on D0 in all subjects The Continuous Infusion (CI) period started immediately after the end of loading dose (H0) and lasted until the day of satisfactory healing of the surgical wound (Dn). This period lasted at least 6 days (144 hours) and could be longer depending on the type of surgery and its outcome. .
