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   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   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 ).

    Maximum Change From Baseline in QTc Interval Based on the Fridericia Correction (QTcF) Method [1]
    End point description
    Triplicate 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements (each recording separated by approximately 1 minute) were performed and average was calculated. The time corresponding to beginning of depolarization to repolarization of the ventricles (QT interval) was adjusted for RR interval using QT and RR from each ECG by Fridericia’s formula (QTcF = QT divided by cube root of RR). Results of change in QTcF analyzed from 12-lead ECGs performed at each time point were averaged for analysis and a maximum across all post-dosing time points was used. Baseline is defined as the average of the triplicate 12-lead ECG measurements taken at the specified time prior to dosing. ECG analysis population was defined as all subjects with at least 1 available baseline and at least 1 on-treatment ECG who received at least 1 dose of any study drug.

    End point description
    An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (eg, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug. Safety analysis set was defined as all subjects who received at least 1 dose of any study drug.
