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.

    End point description
    Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that resulted in death, were life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization, resulted in disability/incapacity or were a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a study subject. Any was defined as the occurrence of any SAE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Grade 3 SAE = SAE which prevented normal, everyday activities (in adults/adolescents, such an SAE, for example, prevented attendance at work/school and necessitated the administration of corrective therapy). Related SAE = SAE assessed by the investigator as causally related to the vaccination.

    End point title
    Number of subjects reporting medically significant conditions (MSCs) and potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs) [2]
    End point description
    Medically significant conditions (MSCs) are defined as: AEs prompting emergency room or physician visits that were not related to common diseases, or not related to routine visits for physical examination or vaccination; SAEs that were not related to common diseases. Common diseases include: upper respiratory infections, sinusitis, pharyngitis, gastroenteritis, urinary tract infections, cervicovaginal yeast infections, menstrual cycle abnormalities and injury. Potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs) are a subset of medically significant conditions that include autoimmune diseases and other inflammatory and/or neurologic disorders of interest which may or may not have an autoimmune aetiology. Any was defined as the occurrence of any MSC or pIMD regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination. Grade 3 MSC or pIMD = a MSC or pIMD which prevented normal, everyday activities. Related MSC or pIMD = a MSC or pIMD assessed by the investigator as related to the vaccination.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    09 Dec 2010
    Due to their potent immune stimulating effect, there are theoretical concerns that modern adjuvants like GSK Biologicals' novel adjuvant systems might result in undesirable effects on the body's immune system, which could include onset of new or exacerbation of underlying autoimmune diseases in particular. Accordingly, a heightened surveillance on the occurrence of any such conditions in recipients of novel adjuvant containing vaccines in clinical trials has been put in place by GSK. Protocol amendment 1 was hence developed to implement reporting of potential immune-mediated diseases (pIMDs).
    13 Jan 2011
    "The exclusion criterion “Administration of any chronic drug therapy to be continued during the study period” has been removed to be in line with the original HPV-015 study protocol. Upon request of regulatory authorities, the list of pIMDs has been updated to include the term “undifferentiated spondyloarthritides”."

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No
