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   44364   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7388   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 ).

    Number of subjects in Complete Remission 6 Months After Randomization [1]
    End point description
    Complete remission [CR] is defined according to Cheson criteria. CR requires the following: 1. Complete disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiographic evidence of disease and disappearance of all disease-related symptoms if present before therapy, and normalization of those biochemical abnormalities. 2. All lymph nodes and nodal masses must have regressed to normal size. Previously involved nodes that were 1.1 to 1.5 cm in their greatest transverse diameter before treatment must have decreased to ≤1 cm in their greatest transverse diameter after treatment, or by more than 75% in the sum of the products of the greatest diameters (SPD). 3. The spleen, if considered to be enlarged before therapy on the basis of a CT scan, must have regressed in size and must not be palpable on physical examination. 4. If the bone marrow was involved by lymphoma before treatment, the infiltrate must be cleared on repeat bone marrow aspirate and biopsy of the same site.

    Number of subjects with severe toxicity 6 Months After Randomization [2]
    End point description
    Sevevre toxicity is defined as the occurrence of severe toxicity, that is, febrile neutropenia, or toxic death, within one month following the end of the treatment. Febrile neutropenia is defined in the International CTC toxicity scale as “fever of unknown origin without clinically or microbiologically documented infection: neutrophils < 1.0 x 109/l and fever ≥38.5° C”. Toxic death is defined as any death which occur during treatment (from day 1 of the first cycle of chemotherapy up to day 30 of the last cycle) and is not related to lymphoma. Yet, because of the peculiarity of the patients treated (vulnerable/frail), because of previous experience of the occurrence of such death neither related to toxicity nor to lymphoma (EORTC 20992 phase II trial), interpretation of each death cause will be evaluated by
