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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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 the efficacy of boceprevir for 44 weeks, in addition to standard therapy in a cohort of patients with cirrhosis who have failed a previous course of appropriate treatment, defined as at least 12 weeks of therapy antiviral therapy with Peg-interferon and ribavirin
    Valutare l’efficacia di Boceprevir per 44 settimane, in aggiunta alla terapia standard, in una coorte di pazienti con cirrosi, che abbiano fallito un precedente corso di trattamento idoneo, definito come almeno 12 settimane di terapia antivirale con Peg-interferone e Ribavirina
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1.safety of Boceprevir when used in combination with SOC in this subset of patients 2.to determine whether lead-in phase may i) better predict SVR in comparison to historical response and ii) identify predictors associated with SVR in poor responders (<1 log10 decay at TW4)
    1.valutare la sicurezza di Boceprevir utilizzato in associazione alla terapia standard nei pazienti con cirrosi 2.determinare se il periodo lead-in possa i) meglio definire la probabilità di SVR rispetto alla risposta storica al trattamento e ii) identificare dei possibili predittori di SVR nei pazienti “scarsamente responsivi” definiti come soggetti con riduzione di HCV RNA quantitativo &lt;1 log10 alla settimana 4 di trattamento)
