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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    Psoriasis vulgaris
    E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
    Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disease that appears on the skin.

    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    Psoriasis will be assessed by ultrasound measurements of skin thickness (distance between the lower border of the entry echo of the skin and the lower border of the dermis as well as the echo lucent band) at study days 1, 8, 15, and 22.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    a) Efficacy of different treatments will be clinically assessed (visually and by palpating the test area) at study days 8, 15, and 22 compared to baseline
    b) Ultrasound measurements as changes to baseline (in percent)
    c) Tolerability of different treatments will be assessed at study days 8, 15, and 22 by a physician
    d) Assessment of teleangiectasia and erythema at each study visit (safety)
    e) Digital photography
    f) Assessment of AEs and SAEs and their relationship to study medication
    g) Other safety parameters (blood pressure, heart rate, pregnancy test)
