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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability, and efficacy of darunavir with low-dose ritonavir (DRV/rtv) administered at 800/100 mg once daily (q.d.) in combination with an investigator-selected background regimen, consisting of either zidovudine (AZT)/lamivudine (3TC) or abacavir (ABC)/3TC, over a 24-week treatment period in antiretroviral (ARV) treatment-naïve HIV-1 infected adolescents aged between 12 and < 18 years and weighing ≥ 40 kg.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Safety and tolerability of subjects were evaluated by monitoring of the incidence and type of adverse events (AEs)/ HIV-Related Events, performing Clinical Laboratory Tests ( Hematology and Coagulation, Biochemistry, Urinalysis, Hepatitis Serology/Viremia) , Cardiovascular Safety tests (Electrocardiogram, Vital Signs) and other safety evaluations including Physical examination and Pubertal Development - Tanner Stage throughout the study.

    Virological Response [Viral Load <50 Copies/mL, FDA-SNAPSHOT]
    End point description
    The analysis is based on the last observed viral load (VL) data within the Week 24 window. Virologic response is defined as a VL less than (<) 50 copies/mL (observed case). Virologic Failure includes a) patients who had greater than or equal to (>=) 50 copies/millilitre (mL) in the Week 24 window, b) patients who discontinued prior to Week 24 for lack or loss of efficacy, c) patients who had a switch in their background regimen that was not permitted by the protocol, and d) patients who discontinued for reasons other than adverse events (AEs)/death, and lack or loss of efficacy (provided their last available viral load was detectable).
