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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate and compare Gingival Bleeding (as assessed by the gingival severity component of the Gingival Index [GI]) following twice daily use of a non-alcohol 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthrinse and brushing compared to brushing only. Also twice daily use of an alcohol 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthrinse and brushing compared to brushing only.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    To evaluate and compare Gingivitis (as assessed by the Gingival Index) following twice daily use of a non-alcohol 0.2% Chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthrinse and brushing compared to brushing only. Also twice daily use of an alcohol 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthrinse and brushing compared to brushing only.

    To evaluate and compare plaque control (overall and interproximal dental plaque scores) using Turesky modification of Quigley & Hein plaque index following twice daily use of a non-alcohol 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthrinse and brushing compared to brushing only. Also twice daily use of an alcohol 0.2% Chlorhexidine mouthrinse and brushing compared to brushing only.

    b) Subjects requiring prophylactic antibiotic treatment prior to dental therapy.

    c) Use of concomitant medication that, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the outcome of the study or increases the risk to the subject (eg: phenytoin, calcium antagonists, cyclosporine, warfarin, antibiotics, immuno-suppressants).

    d) Use of antibiotics within two weeks prior to the screening visit or throughout the study.

    e) Use of any systemic medication which would have an effect on gingival conditions within 14 days of gingival examinations (eg: ibuprofen or aspirin therapy)

    6. Dental Health

    a) Have current active caries

    b) More than 3 pockets with 5mm or over.

    c) Excessive calculus present that interferes with the probing examination for Gingival Index.

    d) Other severe oral/ gingival conditions (e.g. Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis) that may compromise the study or the subjects in the opinion of the investigator or gingivitis examiner.

    e) Medical conditions which may directly influence gingival bleeding.

    f) Restorations in a poor state of repair.

    g) Orthodontic appliances anterior cosmetic restorations and veneers.

    h) Enamel pitting/irregularities.
