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
    To prospectively determine the diagnostic value of Xenetix®-CT perfusion for the discrimination between well-differentiated HCC and moderately/poorly differentiated HCC (off-site assessment). Histopathology will be used as the gold standard for the evaluation of HCC grading
    Protection of trial subjects
    A patent IV line should be established and maintained throughout the examination. Subjects who might have a particular reaction (e.g., allergic reaction) during the iodine injection should receive added surveillance (e.g., carefully monitored pulse and blood pressure). Examination of the subject will be discontinued if a serious adverse event occurs during or just after injection of Xenetix® (preventing post contrast imaging sequence). In any case, a delay of fourty-eight hours is recommended between two contrast medium examinations (MR or X-Ray). Oxygen equipment, emergency case and antihistaminic medications should be available for immediate treatment.
