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   43876   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7294   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.

    Evaluation of the presence, characteristics and change in numbers of disseminated tumor cells (DTC) in bone marrow and circulating tumor cells (CTC) in peripheral blood before treatment start, at the end of neoadjuvant treatment (at surgery) and during follow up, according to bevacizumab treatment

    Evaluation of the presence and number of circulating endothelial cells (CEC) in peripheral blood before treatment start, at the end of neoadjuvant treatment (at surgery) and during follow up, according to bevacizumab treatment.
