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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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
    Test the hypothesis that antibiotic treatment of GAS colonisation compared to placebo is associated with a larger reduction of tic and associated neuropsychiatric symptoms in the short-term (1 month) in patients with a tic disorder colonised by GAS.
    De hypothese testen dat antibiotica behandeling van GAS colonisatie vergeleken met placebo samen hangt met een grotere reductie van tic en aanverwante neuropsychiatrische symptomen op de korte termijn (1 maand) in patiënten met een tic stoornis met een GAS colonisatie.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Test the hypothesis that antibiotic treatment of GAS colonisation is superior to placebo in the long-term (1 year) reduction of tic and associated neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with a tic disorder colonized by GAS. Investigate the influence of possible moderators on treatment outcome. Investigate the effects of antibiotic treatment on patient’s immune responses to GAS antigens.
    De hypothese testen dat antibiotica behandeling van GAS colonisatie vergeleken met placebo superieur is op de lange termijn (1 jaar) en samen hangt met een grotere reductie van tic en aanverwante neuropsychiatrische symptomen in patiënten met een tic stoornis met een GAS colonisatie. De invloed van mogelijke moderatoren op behandelings uitkomsten onderzoeken. De invloed onderzoeken van de effecten van antibiotica behandeling op de immuun responsen op GAS antigenen.
