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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    Patients who completed treatment will be evaluated for clinical and laboratory conditions and tumor re-staging every 12 weeks until disease progression. Thereafter, patients enter the follow-up phase and will be contacted by telephone every 3 months to assess survival and to get info on anticancer regimens and adverse events (collected up to 70 days after the last dose of vaccine), until death or loss to the follo-up.

In seguito i pazienti entreranno nella fase di follow-up e saranno contattati telefonicamente ogni 3 mesi per valutare la sopravvivenza e per ottenere info sui regimi antitumorali e gli eventi avversi (raccolti fino a 70 giorni dopo l`ultima dose di vaccino), fino alla morte o alla perdita al follo-up.
