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   44393   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7405   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
    The objective of this study is to find the optimal cell count for functional regeneration of the urethral sphincter including safety evaluation stress urinary incontinence.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The rights, safety, and well-being of trial participants are the primary considerations of this clinical trial and prevail over interests of science and society.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Recruitment of patients per site was not limited and was competitive across countries (4) and sites (32). Study recruitment started in June 2010 and was planned to last 8 months.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: From the overall enrolled 319 patients, 56 patients were not randomized and therefore were excluded from the trial. Out of 263 randomized patients, 36 were not exposed to any trial treatment, thus comprising a safety analysis set of 227 patients. 10 patients of the safety set were not eligible and were therefore excluded from the ITT analysis.

    Change of visual analogue scale (VAS) of Visit 2 from baseline Visit -5
    End point description
    The individual perception of UI complaints will be evaluated by each patient using a standardized VAS. The VAS is an instrument that measures a characteristic or attitude believed to range across a continuum of values and cannot easily be directly measured. It is usually a horizontal line, 100 mm in length, anchored by word descriptors at each end. The patient should mark the VAS with a vertical line representing his or her perception of the individual UI status. In the study, the two endpoints of the VAS are defined as "no complaints at all" (0 cm) and "worst complaints imaginable" (10 cm).
