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   43839   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7280   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.

    for at least 1 month prior to entering the study and will continue its use through at least 30 days after the last dose of study medication or
    • A barrier method of contraception, eg, condom and/or diaphragm with spermicide while participating in the study through at least 30 days after the last dose of study medication or abstinence
    5. Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the subject has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study.
    6. Subjects who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan,
    laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Subjects presenting with any of the following will be excluded from the study:
    1. Current or past diagnosis of dementia, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or

    3. Current use of either bupropion or nortryptiline.
    4. Current use of medications prescribed for mania or psychosis.
    5. Subjects who are believed to have a suicidal or homicidal risk (eg, after an
    assessment by a qualified mental health professional if the SBQ-R and C-SSRS
    screening assessment warranted suicidal risk assessment interview).
    6. Subjects who, in the investigator's judgment, would require treatment with any
    additional or different treatment modality, or with antipsychotics, or would require a
    change in intensity of psychotherapy, or an additional treatment with any other
    psychotherapeutic drugs during the course of the trial.
    7. Evidence of substance abuse/misuse severe enough to compromise the subject’s
    ability to comply with the study requirements (eg, consecutive positive urine drug
    screens).
    8. Subjects taking an investigational drug within 30 days before the Baseline visit.
    9. Subjects who have clinically significant medical disorders or laboratory test abnormalities.
    10. Subjects previously enrolled in a study that included varenicline (CP-526,555) or

    (eg, severe cutaneous and/or systemic allergic reactions).
    15. Any subject at screening with an SGOT (AST) or SGPT (ALT) greater than 3 times
    the upper limit of normal and/or total bilirubin greater than 2 times the upper limit of
    normal (ULN).
    16. Subjects with clinically significant cardiovascular disease in the past 6 months, such as myocardial infarction, coronary artery graft (CABG), percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA), severe or unstable angina, a serious arrhythmia, clinical significant ECG conduction abnormalities, or heart failure.
    17. Subjects with clinically significant cerebrovascular disease in the past 6 months, such as cerebrovascular incident (CVA), stroke, or documented transient ischemic attack (TIA).

    indoor clothing without shoes and determined using a Body Mass Index (BMI) Table.
    (Appendix 1) No subject will be enrolled with a weight less than 100 pounds (45.5 kg).
    21. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory
    abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study.
