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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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
    Part 1 - To evaluate the feasibility of repeated intra-tumor AdCD40L injections of malignant melanoma patients with metastases by studying tolerance and toxicity. Part 2 - To evaluate the feasibility of repeated local treatment of cyclophosphamide preconditioned malignant melanoma patients with metastases by studying the tolerance and toxicity during and after repeated cycles of AdCD40L injections.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The patients were treated accordingly to protocol. Symptoms of disease or adverse events were handled as per hospital routine to minimize risk or pain of all study patients.
