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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 compare the rate of Helicobacter pylori eradication following quadruple therapy by a Single-Triple capsule of bismuth subcitrate potassium, metronidazole, and tetracycline, given with omeprazole (OBMT) vs omeprazole, amoxicillin and clarithromycin (OAC) in Helicobacter pylori positive patients.
    Confrontare il tasso di eradicazione dell`Helicobacter Pylori dopo quadrupla terapia a base di una capsula tre in uno di potassio di bismuto subcitrato,metronidazolo e tetraciclina somministrata con omeprazolo rispetto a terapia con omeprazolo,amoxicillina e claritromicina in pazienti positivi per l`Helicobacter Pylori
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1. To compare eradication outcomes in patients with presence/past history of peptic ulcers at baseline vs those without. 2. To evaluate the effect of resistance of Helicobacter pylori to metronidazole and clarithromycin on the efficacy of these treatments. 3. To evaluate the rate of secondary resistance induced by these treatments. 4. To assess the safety and tolerability of these therapeutic regimens with respect to patient-reported and investigator-observed adverse events, clinical laboratory abnormalities and plasma bismuth (Bi) concentrations. 5. To evaluate compliance to treatment
    1.Confrontare i risultati relativi all`eradicazione in pazienti con ulcera peptica attuale o pregressa alla baseline rispetto a pazienti senza ulcera peptica.2.Valutare l`effetto della resistenza dell`Helicobacter Pylori al metronidazolo e all claritromicina sull`efficacia di tali trattamenti 3.Valutare il tasso di resistenza secondaria indotto da tali trattamenti 5.Valutare l`osservanza del trattamento
