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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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
    To evaluate the 1-year and post-1-year safety and tolerability of eslicarbazepine acetate flexible dosing within the range of 800 mg to 2400 mg in subjects with partial epilepsy who have participated in an 18-week double-blind eslicarbazepine acetate monotherapy study (Protocols 093-045 or 093-046).
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted according to the protocol, ICH Good Clinical Practice (GCP), ICH guidelines and the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki

    End point description
    The C-SSRS is an instrument designed to systematically assess and track suicidal behavior and suicidal ideation. The C-SSRS will be completed by the Investigator or Sub-Investigator (or qualified site personnel). Suicidal ideation is collected as any occurrence of wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intent to act, active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan, active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent. Suicidal behavior is collected as any occurrence of actual attempts, Non-Suicidal Self-Injurious Behavior, interrupted attempts, aborted attempts, or preparatory acts or behavior, suicidal behavior. Any suicidality is defined as having at least one occurrence of Suicidal Behavior or Suicidal Ideation.
