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   44157   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7327   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.

    End point description
    The Partial Mayo score (Mayo score without endoscopy) ranges from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 9 (severe disease) and is calculated as the sum of 3 subscores (stool frequency, rectal bleeding and physician's global assessment [PGA]), each of which ranges from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe disease).

    Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ): Change From Baseline Over Time
    End point description
    The IBDQ is a 32-item questionnaire that assesses how the subject felt during the 2 weeks before the measurement time point. Questions are related to symptoms the subject might have had as a result of UC, how the subject felt in general, how the subject's mood was, and social and work problems the subject might have that resulted from UC. An increase in IBDQ score indicates less impact of UC on the subject's life. The responses to each question range from 1 (significant impairment) to 7 (no impairment), with the total score ranging from 32 (very poor) to 224 (perfect health-related quality of life). N=number of subjects with evaluable data at given time point.

    36-Item Short Form Health Survey Version 2 (SF-36) Mental Component Score: Change From Baseline Over Time
    End point description
    The SF-36 is a health-related survey that assesses participant's quality of life and consists of 36 questions covering 8 health domains: physical functioning, bodily pain, role limitations due to physical problems and emotional problems, general health, mental health, social functioning, vitality, and 2 component scores (mental [MCS] and physical [PCS]). MCS consisted of social functioning, vitality, mental health, and role-emotional scales. PCS consisted of physical functioning, bodily pain, role-physical, and general health scales. Each domain is scored by summing the individual items and transforming the scores into a 0 (poorest health) to 100 (best health) scale with higher scores indicating better health status or functioning. N=number of subjects with evaluable data at given time point.

    Work Productivity and Activity Impairment: General Health Version 2.0 (WPAI:GH) Work Time Missed Because of Ulcerative Colitis: Change From Baseline Over Time
    End point description
    The WPAI:GH questionnaire was used to assess work and activity impairment due to symptoms of ulcerative colitis in the last 7 days. The self-administered questionnaire measures the effect of the subject's health problems on work and daily activities in the previous week, specifically, the number of hours missed from work due to health problems, how much the subject's health problems affected work productivity, and how much the subject's health problems affected regular activities. Low scores indicate little or no impact of health problems on work and activities, and a negative change in the WPAI score indicates improvement. N=number of subjects with evaluable data at given time point.
