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   43850   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.

    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Subjects who are able to provide written informed consent and/or
    consent obtained from a legally acceptable representative (as required
    by IRB/IEC), prior to the initiation of any protocol-required procedures.
    2. Ability, in the opinion of the principal investigator, to understand the
    nature of the study and follow protocol requirements, including the
    prescribed dosage regimens, tablet/capsule ingestion, and discontinuation of prohibited concomitant medication; to read and
    understand the written word in order to complete subject-reported
    outcomes measures; and to be reliably rated on assessment scales.
    3. Male or female outpatients 18 to 66 years of age, inclusive, at the time
    of informed consent.
    4. Subjects who have participated in Protocol 31-08-255, 31-08-256 or
    31-08-263 and who, in the opinion of the investigator, could potentially
    benefit form the administration of oral aripiprazole/escitalopram
    combination therapy. Eligible subjects include those who:
    a) completed participation in the Randomization Phase (Phase C, Week
    14 Visit) or
    b) met criteria for a response at the end of the Prospective treatment
    Phase (Phase B, Week 8 Visit) and at the end of Phase B+ (Week 14
    Visit) did not meet criteria for remission (defined as a MADRS Total
    Score =<10).
    1. Pacientes que puedan proporcionar el consentimiento informado por escrito u obtención del consentimiento de un representante legalmente aceptable (según lo requiera el IRB/IEC), antes de comenzar ningún procedimiento requerido por el protocolo.
    2. Capacidad, según la opinión del investigador principal, de comprender la naturaleza del estudio y cumplir los requisitos del protocolo, inclusive los regímenes posológicos prescritos, la toma de comprimidos o cápsulas y la interrupción de los medicamentos concomitantes prohibidos; también de leer y comprender textos escritos para poder rellenar las mediciones de resultados comunicados por el paciente y recibir una puntuación fiable en las escalas de evaluación.
    3. Pacientes ambulatorios de ambos sexos de 18 a 66 años de edad, ambas inclusive, en el momento del consentimiento informado.

    Hospital Cognitive and Physical Functioning Questionnaire (CPFQ) score.
    Responses to the Resource Utilization Form will be summarized appropriately to explore the impact of treatment on health care resources.
    Las variables secundarias de eficacia importantes incluirán la puntuación media de la Impresión Clínica Global: escala de gravedad de la enfermedad (CGI-S) y la puntuación media de la Impresión global de gravedad del paciente (PGI-S) en la visita basal y en cada momento del estudio.
