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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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
    The main objective of this study is to determine whether the first (sentinel) lymph nodes in the drainage pathway of a colonic tumour can be detected at the time of surgery using a new technique. The detection method is to inject a fluorescent dye (indocyanine green) into the colon adjacent to the tumour. The dye will then be seen as it fluoresces in the light from the near infrared spectrum that can be used at the time of the laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. An endoscope is placed in the colon (colonoscopy) during surgery and the tracer fluorescent agent is injected around the tumour. The mesentery in which the lymph nodes draining the tumour are located will then be examined by laparoscopy and it is expected that fluorescence will be identified within approximately 5 minutes of the injection. The first lymph node or nodes that take up the fluorescent dye will then be marked by placing a clip or a stitch by them. After the surgery has been completed and colon removed, all lymph nodes w
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    • To assess the extent to which that the tumour-bearing status of SLN(s) identified corresponds with lymph node status as assessed by standard methods (pathological examination of excised nodes using H&E and immunohistochemistry) • To estimate the proportion of patients with aberrant nodal drainage. i.e. the proportion with SLN(s) lying outside the standard resection field

    To establish whether it is possible to identify the first order draining mesocolic lymph nodes (sentinel lymph node(s) (SLNs) in patients with suspected T1 and T2 colonic cancer, using ICG, a fluorescent mapping agent, and a laparoscopic near infrared imaging (NIR) system.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    This is a feasibility trial and active patient participation in this study concludes with the end of the operation, therefore this is not applicable. Ongoing care or support, in addition to the standard follow-up, is not necessary but can be provided if the patient should request it. Data collection however will be performed on the first postoperative day as well as the at 4 weeks after surgery through a telephone interview in order to capture any adverse events after the procedure.
