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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To establish the pharmacokinetics (PK) of capecitabine in patients who have undergone a total gastrectomy
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was approved by a Research Ethics Committee and received authorisation from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Authority. Patients received verbal and written information prior to consenting to the trial and had the time to consider their participation and opportunity to ask questions. Consenting patients had a series of screening tests and exams to ensure they were suitable for the study and that it was safe to proceed. The patients were monitored in the clinic every 3 weeks during the pre-operative and post-operative cycles of treatment for assessment and monitoring of safety. On registration to the trial, the patients were allocated a unique reference number to be used on all data and samples sent to the Sponsor which allowed their personal data to remain anonymous. Only the patients' direct care team had access to their recruited participants personal data during the study. Patients were allowed to withdraw their consent to the study at any time. Patients were withdrawn from the study if they demonstrated disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

    End point timeframe
    cycle 1 to cycle 4
    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: This is a single arm PK study to investigate whether there is a difference in AUC of capecitabine between cycle 4 and cycle 1, measured by the ratio of cycle 4/cycle 1. A total of 5 patients completed both cycles. The mean and standard deviation of this ratio is 2.93 and 1.41, respectively. Using the one-sample t-test, the p-value of the null hypothesis that the ratio =1 is 0.0373.
