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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    1. To use florbetapir (18F) to investigate the pathological underpinning of the neuropsychologically distinct variants of primary progressive aphasia (PPA); and to compare patterns of florbetapir (18F) uptake between these patients and those with posterior cortical Alzheimer’s disease (PCA-AD) and age-matched controls. 2.To use 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) PET imaging to assess the patterns of focal hypometabolism occurring in these disorders.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Subjects who received florbetapir (18F) were closely followed by means of adverse event reporting and vital signs. In the event of a study related adverse event, subjects would not have been discharged until the event had resolved or stabilized. Subjects were made aware of the planned procedures and their comfort in the scanner was maximized to minimize the risk of any discomfort while in the PET scanner.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: The worldwide total represents the number of subjects enrolled in the study. One subject elected to leave the study prior to receiving florbetapir (18F). The baseline period represents the number of subjects who received a florbetapir (18F) scan.

    A blinded visual assessment was performed by three independent, experienced nuclear medicine clinicians for both florbetapir (18F) images (AB+/AB-) and FDG images (FDG abnormal/FDG normal).
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    Florbetapir (18F) PET imaging 50-60 minutes after injection. FDG PET Imaging 30-60 minutes after injection.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No statistical analysis was performed on this outcome measure.
    [2] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: The PPA arm is composed of 3 subgroups: LPA, PNFA, and SD. The efficacy data for the PPA arm is presented in the subgroup analysis for this end point.
