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.

    A.3Full title of the trial
    A Randomized, Partially Double-Blind, Active-Controlled, Dose-Ranging Estimation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Different Regimens of MK-5172 When Administered Concomitantly with Pegylated-Interferon and Ribavirin in Treatment-Naïve Patients with Chronic Genotype 2 or 3 Hepatitis C Virus Infection.
    Studio dose-ranging di valutazione, randomizzato, parzialmente in doppio cieco, controllato verso farmaco attivo, volto alla valutazione della sicurezza, della tollerabilita' e dell'efficacia di regimi diversi di MK-5172 somministrato in associazione con interferone pegilato e ribavirina, in pazienti naïve al trattamento, con infezione cronica da virus dell'epatite C di genotipo 2 o 3.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    1. To evaluate the antiviral activity in each of the three arms of MK-5172 (Arms 1, 2, 3) administered in combination with Peg-IFN alfa-2b and RBV as assessed by the proportion of patients achieving undetectable HCV RNA at Week 12 (End-of-Treatment Response, EOTR). 2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability in each of the three arms of MK-5172 in combination with Peg-IFN alfa-2b and RBV (Arms 1, 2, 3) relative to the control regimen (Arm 4).
    1. Valutare l'attività antivirale in ciascuno dei tre bracci di trattamento con MK-5172 (Bracci 1, 2, 3), somministrato in associazione con Peg-IFN alfa-2b e RBV, determinata sulla base della percentuale di pazienti con HCV RNA non rilevabile alla Settimana 12 (risposta alla fine del trattamento, EOTR). 2. Valutare la sicurezza e la tollerabilità in ciascuno dei tre bracci di trattamento con MK-5172 somministrato in associazione con Peg-IFN alfa-2b e RBV (bracci 1, 2, 3), rispetto al regime di controllo (braccio 4).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1. To evaluate the antiviral activity in patients receiving Peg-IFN and RBV (Arm 4) as assessed by the proportion of patients achieving undetectable HCV RNA at Week 24 (End-of-Treatment Response, EOTR). 2. To evaluate the antiviral activity in each of the three treatment arms of MK-5172 in combination with Peg-IFN alfa-2b and RBV (Arms 1, 2, 3) and the control regimen (Arm 4), as assessed by the time to first achievement of undetectable HCV RNA. 3. To evaluate the antiviral activity in each of the three treatment arms of MK-5172 in combination with Peg-IFN/RBV (Arms 1, 2, 3) and the control regimen (Arm 4) as assessed by the proportion of patients achieving undetectable HCV RNA at: •Week 4 (RVR) •Week 12 (cEVR) •12 weeks after the end of all study therapy (SVR12) •24 weeks after the end of all study therapy (SVR24)
    1. Valutare l'attività antivirale in pazienti sottoposti a trattamento con Peg-IFN e RBV (braccio 4), determinata sulla base della percentuale di pazienti con HCV RNA non rilevabile alla Settimana 24 (risposta alla fine del trattamento, EOTR). 2. Valutare l'attività antivirale in ciascuno dei tre bracci di trattamento con MK-5172 somministrato in associazione con Peg-IFN alfa-2b e RBV (bracci 1, 2, 3) e nel regime di controllo (braccio 4), determinata sulla base della prima volta in cui il paziente raggiunge livelli di HCV RNA non rilevabili. 3. Valutare l'attività antivirale in ciascuno dei tre bracci di trattamento con MK-5172 somministrato in associazione con Peg-IFN/RBV (bracci 1, 2, 3) e nel regime di controllo (braccio 4), determinata sulla base della percentuale di pazienti con HCV RNA non rilevabile alla: • Settimana 4 (RVR) • Settimana 12 (cEVR) • SVR12 • SVR24
