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.

    9. Using mono-amine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), tricyclic antidepressants, nefazodone, isoniazid or protease inhibitors, or any other anti-retroviral agents (e.g. efavirenz) that may raise the levels of CBZ-CR.
    10. Known hypersensitivity to carboxamide derivatives or tricyclic antidepressants.
    11. History of uncontrolled psychiatric illness or mood disorder requiring electro-convulsive or drug therapy within the previous 6 months, a history of suicide attempt, schizophrenia, chronic treatment with benzodiazepines (except short-acting benzodiazepines) or barbiturates.
    12. Judged clinically to have a suicidal risk in the opinion of the investigator based upon a clinical interview and the Columbia Suicide-Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS).
    13. History of alcohol, drug, or medication abuse within the last 2 years.
    14. Uncontrolled cardiac (including atrioventricular block and other clinically significant electrocardiographic abnormalities), renal, hepatic, endocrine, gastrointestinal, metabolic, hematological, or oncology disorder.
    15. History of bone marrow depression.
    16. History of hepatic porphyrias (e.g. acute intermittent porphyria, variegate porphyria, porphyria cutanea tarda).
    17. Relevant clinical laboratory abnormalities (e.g. sodium <130 mmol/L, alanine or aspartate transaminases >2 x the upper limit of normal, white blood cell count <3000 cells/mm3) (measured at Visit 1).
    18. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (measured at Visit 1).
    19. Subjects of Asian ancestry who test positive for the presence of the HLA-B*1502 allele.
    20. Pregnancy or lactating.
    21. Participation in other drug clinical trial within the last 2 months or having received an IMP within 5 half-lives of that IMP, whichever is longer.
    22. Any other condition or circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise the subject’s ability to comply with the study protocol.

    Visit A1 (Day 1; Randomization and start of double-blind treatment period):
    23. Former or current use of any AED, except for the use of a single AED for a maximum duration of 2 weeks before Visit 1 and with a drug-free period of at least 5 days before Visit A1. Benzodiazepines are allowed, no more than twice a week, for an epileptic indication and as rescue medication during the ≥5-day drug-free period.
    24. Using prohibited medication.
    25. Pregnancy.
    26. Any other condition or circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise the subject’s ability to comply with the study protocol.
