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 ).

    End point title
    Change From Baseline (BL) in Unified Parkinson Disease (PD) Rating Scale (UPDRS) Motor Score
    End point description
    The UPDRS is a clinician based rating scale used to measure motor impairments and disability assessing six features of PD impairment. These are evaluated with data collected by interview and examination of the participant. One of the six features include the Part III–Motor Examination where scores range 0-108 and the maximum score indicates the worse condition. BL is defined as the last non-missing value on or before the first dose date. The change from BL was calculated by subtracting the BL values from the individual post-randomization values. The least squares(LS) means were estimated using the mixed model repeated measures(MMRM) adjusting for BL UPDRS motor score and race(white versus other) or by using the non-parametric rank analysis of covariance(ANCOVA). Intent to Treat (ITT) Population: all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study medication, had a BL efficacy assessment for the specific outcome, and at least one respective post-BL efficacy assessment.

    Number of participants with a >=5 points reduction from Baseline in UPDRS motor score
    End point description
    The UPDRS motor scores can range from 0-108 where the maximum score indicates the worse condition. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment measured on or before the first dose date. The change from Baseline will be calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. All participants with a non-missing efficacy observation at Baseline and during the maintenance period were analyzed.

    Change from Baseline in UPDRS Activities of Daily Living
    End point description
    The UPDRS Part II is the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score and can range from 0-52 as determined by the physician. The higher score indicates the worse condition. Tests were performed when the participant is in the "on" state of Parkinson's. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment measured on or before the first dose date. The change from Baseline will be calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. All participants with a non-missing efficacy observation at Baseline and during the maintenance period were analyzed.

    Change from Baseline in the total UPDRS score (Parts I-III)
    End point description
    The total UPDRS score was calculated by the sum of the values for each component (Part I + Part II + Part III) as determined by the physician. The UPDRS Part I scores mentation, behavior and mood and scores can range from 0-16. The UPDRS Part II is the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score and can range from 0-52. The UPDRS Part III is the Motor Examination (Total Motor Score [TMS]) and scores range from 0-108. The total UPDRS (Part I + II + III) scores can range from 0-176 with the higher score indicating the worse condition. Tests were performed when the participant is in the "on" state of Parkinson's. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment measured on or before the first dose date. The change from Baseline will be calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual postrandomization values. All participants with a non-missing efficacy observation at Baseline and during the maintenance period were analyzed.

    Change from Baseline in the UPDRS Part I (mentation)
    End point description
    The UPDRS Part I scores mentation, behavior and mood as determined by a physician and participants were tested during the "on" phase of Parkinson's. This component of the UPDRS is the total score for 4 items (the items 1- 4 include intellectual impairment, thought disorder, motivation/initiative, and depression) and may have a value ranging from 0 to 16 as determined by a physician where 16 indicates the maximum score and the worse condition. All 4 items have to be present for a total score to be calculated. If one or more items are missing, the total score for the component will also be missing. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment measured on or before the first dose date. The change from Baseline will be calculated by subtracting the Baseline values from the individual post-randomization values. All participants with a non-missing efficacy observation at Baseline and during the maintenance period were analyzed.

    Responder rate according to the Clinical Global Impression – Global Improvement (CGI-I) scale
    End point description
    The CGI-I scale allows the investigator to rate the participant's total improvement since the beginning of treatment (Baseline). Baseline is defined as the last non-missing assessment measured on or before the first dose date. The scale is rated from 1-7 where 1 = "very much improved", 2 = "much improved", 3 = "minimally improved", 4 = "no change", 5 = "minimally worse, 6 = "much worse", and 7 = "very much worse". The responder rate is defined as the percentage of participants with a score of 1 or 2. All participants with a non-missing efficacy observation at Baseline and during the maintenance period were analyzed.
