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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective is the efficacy of Neurexan® on tension and nervousness perception using visual analogue scales (VAS) when study participants undergo an emotional stressful condition as compared to natural course. The test method for this study is the TSST protocol.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Routine monitoring was performed to verify that rights and well being of participants were protected.

    Tension was self-assessed by the participants on a 0 to 100 millimeter (mm) Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), ranging from 0="not at all" to 100="higly", before and after a stress test. The measurements started 30 min before intake of Neurexan or natural course and were repeated until 100 minutes after the end of the stress test. The total stress was then summarized with the Area under the curve (AUC) method. AUC of VAS Tension value was measured from -210 min to +100 min.

    Modified somatic SCL90
    End point description
    The SCL90 has 90 items and covers dimensions like depression, somatization, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social insecurity, anxiety, phobic anxiety, aggression/hostility, paranoid ideation, psychoticism. A new instrument covering potential somatic stress consequences was used in this study, the modified somatic SCL90 that uses the SCL90 somatization items, but instead of a 7 day timeframe asking for "now" (current state). The corresponding items from SCL90 were: 1, 4, 12, 27, 40, 42, 48, 49, 52, 53, 56, 58 and the introductory question had to be: “How much do you currently suffer from...” ("Wie sehr leiden Sie momentan unter:").

    Neurexan group
    Reporting group description
    33 participants were randomized to Neurexan. One premature terminator could not be evaluated for primary efficacy, so 32 participants in the Neurexan group formed the full analysis Set for analysis of efficacy. All randomised subjects were included in the analysis of safety.

    Reporting group title
    Natoural course group
    Reporting group description
    All of the 32 participants randomised to the Natural Course group formed the full analysis set for analysis of efficacy and safety.
