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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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.

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group, Phase 3 Study to Demonstrate Equivalence in Efficacy and Safety of CT-P13 Compared with Remicade when Co-administered with Methotrexate in Patients with Active Rheumatoid Arthritis

    Due to the EudraCT – Results system being out of service between 31 July 2015 and 12 January 2016, these results have been published in compliance with revised timelines

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that CT P13 was equivalent to Remicade up to Week 30, in terms of efficacy as determined by clinical response according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) definition of a 20% improvement (ACR20).
    Protection of trial subjects
    -Hypersensitivity monitoring was performed as following. • Vital sign: 15 minutes [±5 minutes] before beginning the infusion, at the start of infusion, every 30 minutes [±5 minutes] after the start of infusion, at the end of infusion, and 30, 60, and 120 minutes [±10 minutes] after the end of infusion. - Throughout the study, patients were monitored for the clinical signs and symptoms of TB. • Premedications were given for safety of patients • Emergency equipment and medication were available. • For patients who experienced or developed life-threatening infusion-related anaphylactic reactions, infliximab treatment was stopped immediately and the patient withdrawn from the study
