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   43845   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.

    • To evaluate the safety of trafermin 0.01% spray.
    • To determine the rate of amputations on the target DFU.
    • To determine the frequency of local surgical procedures.
    • To determine the maintenance of wound closure/time to re-opening up to 3 months after observed reepithelialization.
    • To determine DFU new occurrence/recurrence up to 12 months.
    • To explore biomarkers from target wound fluid (selected centers only).
    • To assess high sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs CRP) level variations.
    • To explore the correlation of absolute and relative wound area regression and wound edge migration based on photography in comparison with planimetry tracing.
