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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A proof-of-concept phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind, multicentre clinical trial in 2 parallel groups to evaluate the efficacy and safety of E-52862 for reducing the incidence and severity of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients treated for colorectal cancer.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    -To establish the efficacy of E-52862 to reduce the incidence and the severity of OXL-induced chronic neuropathy in patients treated for colorectal cancer. -To explore the efficacy of E-52862 to reduce the severity and duration of OXL-induced acute neuropathy. -To evaluate whether E-52862 can raise the cumulative total dose of OXL than can be delivered without dose-limiting chronic neuropathy. -To explore the incidence of dose-reduction, dose-delays and discontinuation of oxaliplatin due to symptomatic neuropathy grade 3 or 4. -To explore the incidence of adverse events by severity, of serious adverse events, of adverse events leading to E 52862 discontinuation and of adverse events related to E-52862 by severity. -To assess E-52862 plasma exposure associated with the treatment.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, regulatory requirements, good clinical practice (GCP) and the ethical principles of the latest revision of the Declaration of Helsinki as adopted by the World Medical Association.

    Pre-cycle suprathreshold cold stimulus-evoked pain in the dominant hand
    End point description
    Quantitaive Sensory Testing (QST) parameter: To determine the pain evoked by a suprathreshold cold stimulus, a constant temperature stimulus was applied. The method started with the thermode at a neutral temperature of 32ºC until the patient reported a neutral thermal sensation. Then, it was cooled progressively at a rate of −1.5ºC/s until it reached the suprathreshold temperature, previously determinated for each patient, which was maintained for 5 seconds. After that time, the patient evaluated the intensity of the evoked pain using an 11-point numerical rating scale.

    Proportion of patients with severe neuropathy (NCI-CTCAE ≥3)
    End point description
    The grade of treatment-associated neuropathy in the form of peripheral sensory neuropathy was assessed with the 4th version of the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) of the US Cancer Institute. Severe neuropathy is defined as NCI-CTCAE grade ≥3 toxicity at any time during chemotherapy. Patients with an UNKNOWN value in the following tables are those patients whose NCI-CTCAE assessment is not available at end of treatment cycle (cycle 12 or previous if the patient withdrew the study) and whose previous scheduled NCI-CTCAE assessments were <3). They are excluded from the analysis.
