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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    hazard ratio for HAP at day 28
    End point description
    The first primary endpoint was the comparison of the rates of Nosocomial Pneumonia in the first 28 days after the trauma, i.e., during the period most at risk of developing this complication, between the two groups (hydrocortisone + fludrocortisone versus double placebo) in patients with adrenal insufficiency criteria.

    Rates of Nosocomial Pneumonia in the first 28 days
    Statistical analysis description
    The final analysis will be conducted on a modified intention-to-treat (mITT) basis and will be performed as soon as the study has been stopped. It will be performed only on patients with criteria of adrenal insufficiency at the initial assessment. The mITT analysis is therefore defined a priori and is made necessary by the urgency of initiating study treatment when the results of the hormonal assessment are not yet available. results of the hormonal assessment are only obtained in 48 hours.

    They should be reported immediately (within 24 hours of its detection by the investigator) to the sponsor.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    Annual safety report once a year. Pregnancy, overdose, misuse, errors or risk of medication errors make the subject of a report to the sponsor by the investigator even if there are no adverse reactions. Some non-serious adverse events may be declared to the proponent (--> protocole).
