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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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
    The primary objective of the study is to determine if armodafinil treatment, at a
    dosage of 150 mg/day, is more effective than placebo treatment as adjunctive therapy for adults who are
    experiencing a major depressive episode associated with Bipolar I Disorder and who are inadequately
    responsive to their current treatment for a current major depressive episode. This will be assessed by the
    change from baseline to endpoint in the total score from the 30-Item Inventory of Depressive
    Symptomatology-Clinician-Rated (IDS-C30).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    to evaluate
    the effectiveness of armodafinil treatment as assessed by the mean change from baseline, in the total score from MADRS, from the IDS-C30 and from the QIDS-SR 16
    • the effectiveness of armodafinil in reducing functional disability as assessed from Q-LES-Q-SF
    • the effect of armodafinil on symptoms of anxiety as assesed from HAM-A
    • the proportion of responders according to CGI-BP ratings
    • the proportion of responders as assessed by the IDS-C30
    • the proportion of patients in remission as assessed by the IDS-C30
    • the proportion of patients achieving sustained remission and response as assessed from the IDS-C30
    • the effect of armodafinil on sleep as assessed on the IDS-C30
    • the effect of armodafinil on depressed mood as assessed by the MADRS and IDS-C30
    • key features of depressive retardation as assessed in IDS-C30
    • the safety and tolerability of armodafinil
    • the impact of armodafinil on the pharmacokinetics of olanzapine and/or valproic acid
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
