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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    We evaluated the effects of sunitinib plus doxorubicin-TACE on bleeding or liver failure. Patients with HCC were included in this randomized, double-blind study. They received one to three TACE plus either sunitinib or placebo four weeks out of six for one year. The occurrence of severe bleeding or liver failure was assessed during theweek after the TACE. The safety and survival outcomes were evaluated.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was done in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki (amended 2000) and the International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) Note for Guidance on Good Clinical Practice and approved by the appropriate Ethics Committees.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    From May 2011 to May 2014, 78 patients were randomizedin the study, 39 in each group by 17 french centers.

    Pre-assignment

    End point description
    A severe bleeding was defined as either any bleeding(inguinal, tumoral, gastro-intestinal) requiring a local treat-ment (other than inguinal compression), or any bleedingrequiring a systemic treatment (e.g. blood transfusion), oran inguinal bleeding during more than 24 hours. A severeliver failure was defined as the occurrence of any of thefollowing complications: hepatic encephalopathy, onset ofascites, increase of bilirubin level > 10 mg/L, decrease ofprothrombin rate ≤ 50%.
