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   43841   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7281   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.

    • CTP and CTA examinations acquired prior to treatment
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    • Contraindications to thrombolytic drug treatment for stroke
    o Evidence of intracranial haemorrhage or significant non-stroke intracranial pathology on pre-treatment CT
    o Established hypodensity on pre-treatment brain CT of more than one third of the MCA territory or ASPECT score <4 (sulcal effacement or loss of grey-white differentiation in cortical territories alone are not counted towards ASPECT score)
    o Hypodensity consistent with recent cerebral ischaemia other than the presenting event
    o If on warfarin, INR <1.4

    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Scans are obtained at 24-48 hours after stroke onset. The analysis will be conducted at the end of the trial in order to allow blinding and random ordering of scans.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    • Proportion of Patients exhibiting recanalisation by CTA 24-48h after treatment
    • Early Clinical improvement (NIHSS score reduced by ³4 points, or 0 or 1) at 24h
    • Proportion of patients with symptomatic ICH (SICH) on 24-48h CT:
    - SITS-MOST definition - PH2/PHr2 + NIHSS deterioration by ³4 points at 24h
    - Any ICH
    • Distribution of functional outcome scores at day 30 and day 90 (measured on mRS)
    • Proportion of patients with favourable clinical outcome at day 30 and day 90 (mRS 0-1)
    • Average “home time” (number of nights spent in non-institutional private residence) by 90 days
    • Mortality at day 90
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Clinical end-points are recorded at day 30 and day 90 after stroke.
    Imaging end-points are collected at 24-48 hours.

    End-points will be analysed at the end of the trial.
