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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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
    Immunogenicity Objectives: Co-primary 1. To demonstrate that the immune response of Tdap given concomitantly with MenACWY-CRM and HPV vaccine is non inferior to the response of Tdap vaccine when given with placebo and HPV when measured at 1 month after 1 dose of Tdap. 2. To demonstrate that the immune response of HPV vaccine given concomitantly with MenACWY and Tdap is non-inferior to the response when HPV is given with placebo and Tdap when measured at 1 month after the third dose of HPV vaccination. Safety objectives: - To describe the safety profile of Tdap + HPV + MenACWY versus Tdap + HPV + placebo
    Protection of trial subjects

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Feb 2011
    Amendment No. 1. The amendment included clarifications and revisions primarily related to operational aspects of the protocol.
    19 Jul 2011
    Amendment No. 2. The rationale for the amendment was the requirement to switch from MenACWY prefilled syringe and vial presentation to a vial-vial presentation, as well as to require that all female subjects have a negative urine pregnancy test before enrollment, instead of only female subjects of child bearing potential.
    20 Dec 2012
    Amendment No. 3. The third amendment dated 20 JUN 2013, was due to delays associated with testing of immune response to HPV types at an external laboratory. The protocol was revised to include a stepwise analysis for the 2 coprimary objectives as follows. A final analysis including all safety data and immunogenicity data for the first primary and secondary objectives would be conducted on cleaned data. The results of this analysis would be presented in the clinical study report, including individual listings and unblinded data. The immunogenicity analysis for the second primary objective (assessment of immune response against HPV antigens) would be performed as soon as serological results become available. The HPV results would be presented in an addendum to the clinical study report. This change was communicated to and accepted by regulatory authorities in the US and Italy.
