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.

    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether caloric restriction in itself may be sufficient to restore the values of vitamin D in the normal range and if a further supplementation of vitamin D along with the diet can contribute to improve the cardiometabolic profile in obesity
    valutare se la restrizione calorica di per sé possa essere sufficiente a ripristinare valori di vitamina D nel range di normalità e se un migliore apporto di vitamina D nella dieta possa contribuire a migliorare il profilo cardiometabolico nell’obesità, oltre alla restrizione calorica.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary objective is to be able to understand if supplementation with vitamin D may be to enhance the beneficial effects resulting from the caloric restriction and when it does occur, to identify which parameters of vitamin D acts predominantly and to suggest pathogenic mechanisms behind.
    Il secondo punto fondamentale è quello di riuscire a comprendere se la supplementazione con vitamina D possa andare a rafforzare gli effetti benefici conseguenti alla restrizione calorica e qualora così dovesse verificarsi, individuare su quali parametri la vitamina D agisce in maniera preponderante e ipotizzare i meccanismi patogenetici retrostanti
