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   43841   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7281   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.

    Consentimiento genético Versión 00 General 7-Enero-2013
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Each subject must be willing and able to provide written informed consent for the trial. The legal representative (e.g. parent or guardian) for a subject under the age of legal consent or who otherwise is unable to provide independent consent may provide written informed consent for the subject. Each subject of the age of assent must be willing and able to provide assent in addition to consent from the legal representative to participate in the trial.
    2. Each subject must be > or = to 13 years of age weighing >40 kg [88 lb] and < or = to 150 kg [330 lb] at the time of randomization. Each subject between 13 and 14 years of age must weigh > or = to 50 kg [110 lb]. Subjects may be of either sex and of any race/ethnicity.
    3. Each subject must meet the criteria for proven, probable, or possible invasive aspergillosisIA as per 2008 EORTC/MSG disease definitions at the time of randomization. Proven IA will include those subjects with the demonstration of fungal elements (by cytology, microscopy, or culture) in diseased tissue (sterile sampling). Probable IA includes subjects with at least 1 host factor, clinical criteria, as well as mycological criteria including both direct and indirect (i.e., detection of serum, or BAL fluid Aspergillus galactomannan antigen by sandwich EIA) methods. If using the galactomannan test for diagnosis, a positive test results is defined as a cut-off index of > or = to 1.0 for both serum and BAL. Two positive test results will qualify the subject for meeting the criteria as probable IA. Possible IA includes subjects with at least 1 host factor and clinical criteria but without mycological criteria. See Appendix 3 for tables of diagnostic criteria.
    4. Each subject with possible invasive aspergillosisIA at time of randomization must be willing or be in process of an ongoing diagnostic work up which is anticipated to result in a mycological diagnosis of proven or probable IA within 7 days post-randomization. In the event this does not result in mycological diagnosis of proven or probable IA, the patient must be willing to continue on study therapy and remain in the study.
    5. Each subject must have a central catheterline (e.g., central venous catheter, peripherally-inserted central catheter, etc.) in place or planned to be in place prior to beginning IV study therapy.
    6. Each subject must have acute invasive aspergillosisIA defined as duration of clinical syndrome of <30 days.
    7. Each subject must be willing to adhere to dosing, study visit schedule, and mandatory procedures as outlined in the protocol.
    8. The subject must have the ability to transition to oral study therapy during the course of the study or be willing to receive the entire 12-week study treatment course intravenously.
    1.El sujeto deberá estar dispuesto a otorgar su consentimiento informado por escrito para el ensayo y ser capaz de hacerlo. En el caso de un sujeto con una edad que esté por debajo de la de consentimiento legal o que, por cualquier otro motivo, no pueda otorgar su consentimiento informado por escrito de forma independiente, en su lugar podrá hacerlo su representante legal (por ejemplo, progenitor o tutor). Un sujeto en edad de asentimiento deberá estar dispuesto a otorgar su asentimiento y ser capaz de hacerlo, además del consentimiento del representante legal para participar en el ensayo.
    2.El sujeto deberá tener una edad mínima de 13 años y pesar > 40 y < ó = a 150 kg en el momento de aleatorización. Los sujetos de entre 13 y 14 años de edad deberán pesar > ó = a 50 kg. Los sujetos podrán ser de cualquier sexo y de cualquier raza o etnia.
    3.El sujeto deberá cumplir los criterios de AI comprobada, probable o posible de acuerdo con las definiciones de enfermedad de la EORTC/MSG de 2008 en el momento de aleatorización. En la categoría de AI comprobada se incluirá a los sujetos con demostración de elementos fúngicos (mediante citología, microscopia o cultivo) en tejido enfermo (obtención estéril de las muestras). En la categoría de AI probable se incluirá a los sujetos con al menos un factor del huésped, criterios clínicos y criterios micológicos, que comprenden métodos directos e indirectos (es decir, detección en suero o líquido de LBA de antígeno galactomanano de Aspergillus mediante EIA en sándwich). Podrán utilizarse dos valores de EIA de galactomanano en suero consecutivos > ó = a 0,5 o un solo valor > ó = a 1,0 como único criterio microbiológico de AI probable. Podrá utilizarse un solo valor de EIA de galactomanano > ó = a 1,0 en una muestra de LBA para cumplir los criterios microbiológicos de AI probable. En la categoría de AI posible se incluirá a los sujetos con al menos un factor del huésped y criterios clínicos, pero sin criterios micológicos. En el apéndice 3 se recogen las tablas de criterios diagnósticos.
    4.Un sujeto con una AI posible en el momento de aleatorización deberá estar dispuesto a someterse o estar sometiéndose a una evaluación diagnóstica que se prevé que dé lugar a un diagnóstico micológico de AI comprobada o probable en los 7 días posteriores a la aleatorización.
    5.El sujeto deberá tener una vía central (por ejemplo, catéter venoso central, catéter central insertado por vía periférica, etc.) colocada, o estar prevista su colocación, antes de comenzar el tratamiento del estudio IV.
    6.El sujeto deberá presentar una AI aguda, definida como una duración < 30 días del síndrome clínico.
    7.El sujeto deberá estar dispuesto a cumplir el tratamiento, el calendario de visitas del estudio y los procedimientos obligatorios tal como se describe en el protocolo.
    8.El sujeto deberá tener la posibilidad de pasar a recibir el tratamiento del estudio por vía oral durante el transcurso del estudio o estar dispuesto a recibir todo el tratamiento del estudio durante 12 semanas por vía intravenosa.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1.The subject has chronic (>1 month duration) IA, relapsed/recurrent IA, or refractory IA which has not responded to prior antifungal therapy.
    2.The subject has sarcoidosis, aspergilloma, or allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA).
    3.The subject has a known mixed invasive mold fungal infection including Zygomycetes, and/or a known invasive Aspergillus fungal infection in which either study drug may not be considered active.
    4.The subject has received any systemic (oral, intravenous, or inhaled) antifungal therapy for this infection episode for 4 or more consecutive days immediately prior to randomization.
    5.The subject is taking mold-active antifungal prophylaxis and the IA infection is considered to be a breakthrough. A breakthrough IA infection is one that develops after the initiation of 13 days or more of preventative systemic antifungal therapy.
    6.The subject has received POS or VOR as empirical treatment for this infection for 4 days (96 hours) or more within the 15 days immediately prior to randomization.
    1.El sujeto presenta una AI crónica (> 1 mes de duración), recidivante/recurrente o resistente que no ha respondido al tratamiento antimicótico previo.
    2.El sujeto presenta una sarcoidosis, aspergiloma o aspergilosis broncopulmonar alérgica (ABPA).
    3.El sujeto presenta una micosis invasiva mixta por mohos, incluidos zigomicetos, o una micosis invasiva por Aspergillus en la que podría considerarse que alguno de los fármacos del estudio no es activo.
