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   43870   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7289   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    We will examine whether ivabradine reduces the intensity of certain symptoms that are associated with nerve (neuropathic) pain. We can temporarily induce neuropathic pain in the skin of volunteers by applying a cream containing capsaicin: the chemical in chilli peppers that make it hot. This creates a warm area on the skin, and another area around it where changes in the nerves make it more sensitive. The changes in this area (known as the area of secondary hyperalgesia) can also be found in nerve pain. The changes can be measured with a technique called quantitative sensory testing. We will be particularly interested in measuring volunteers' response to heat, called the heat threshold, and whether this is altered by ivabradine. Ivabradine is a drug that is used to treat people with angina, but new evidence from experiments in animals suggests that it can profoundly reduce neuropathic pain.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The equipment that measures peoples' heat thresholds can also measure thresholds at which they can detect cool and warm sensations, and painful coldness. We will measure these parameters as well. We will need to map the area of sensitivity, by taking a digital photograph, and record the area over which the volunteers can feel changes in normal sensation, for example gentle brushing with cotton wool and gentle pressure. We will also ask the participants to score the pain elicited by the capsaicin by placing a cross on a 10cm scale. Generally, this is between two and three out of ten, so it might be that this study does not have sufficient power to detect a difference. What is important in this early study is to see if the ivabradine reduces the effects on the thresholds. If so, it would suggest that a larger clinical trial in patients would be worthwhile. …).
