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   43857   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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    15 patients of 18 and older were randomized. 8 in DC vaccine group and 7 at Observation group.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    The original number patients could not be achieved due budget restrictions that forced an early termination of recruitment, when only 19 patients had signed informed consent. Three of the patients were excluded for evaluation due to positive resection margins following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery and one patient withdrew informed consent.

    Mature dendritic cells pulsed with autologous tumor lysate were administered intradermally in two or three series (depending on cell availability) of 4 injections (1 per day), spaced 21 to 44 days apart. The expected dose of dendritic cells was 5,000,000, resuspended in 1-2 ml of physiological saline.

    End point timeframe
    Follow-up was performed every 12 weeks (range 11– 14 weeks) ever since surgical treatment by contrast abdominal CT scans.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: Survival curves were compared based on the Kaplan Meier estimates. A log rank test was used in order to calculate the difference between curves. All calculations were performed with STATA v.14 statistical package (StataCorp 2015). * 99999=N.R. (Intervention group: Superior limit of 95% C.I . was N.R.)
