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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To provide an estimate of the relative efficacy of Arm A (AMG 479 in combination with
    endocrine therapy [exemestane or fulvestrant] versus Arm B (AMG 479 placebo in combination with endocrine therapy [exemestane or fulvestrant]) as measured by the PFS hazard ratio. This estimate will be precise enough to provide guidance for further development of AMG 479.for use in the planning of a phase 3 study in this patient population. Additionally, this study will provide qualitative estimates of PFS for treatment arms A and B.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial

    • the safety and tolerability
