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.

    Clinical Trial Results:
    A phase IV, partially double-blind, multicentre study to assess the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Biologicals’ combined DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (new formulation) as compared with GSK Biologicals’ combined DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (current formulation) when administered as a booster dose to children aged 18-23 months, previously primed with the same vaccines in primary vaccination study DTPa-HBV-IPV-109 (105910). The immunogenicity and reactogenicity of a booster dose of the DTPa-HBV-IPV vaccine will be evaluated in a third group of subjects who had received this vaccine in the primary study.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that the immunogenicity of the DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (new formulation) in terms of response to all vaccine antigens is non-inferior to that of the DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine (current formulation), one month after the booster dose.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The vaccines were observed closely for at least 30 minutes, with appropriate medical treatment readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic reaction following the administration of vaccine.

    Blinding implementation details
    Partially double-blind study. The study was double-blind for the two groups receiving current formulation or new formulation i.e. the investigator and parents/guardians of the subjects were unaware of the treatment administered. The study was open for the Penta Group i.e. the vaccine GSK Biologicals’ Infanrix™ penta (DTPa-HBV-IPV) administered to the subjects in this group was known to the investigator and to the parents/guardians of the subject.
