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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of CNTO6785 on the signs and symptoms in subjects with active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) compared with Placebo despite concomitant Methotrexate (MTX) Therapy
    Protection of trial subjects
    To protect the subjects in the study, a series of risk management actions were considered, excluding subjects with potential risks entering into the study, designed the discontinuation criteria during the study, applying for the comprehensive medical monitoring of clinical data on an ongoing basis and an internal Data Reviewing Committee to review unblinded data during the study ongoing. Safety monitoring also include assessing Adverse Events, brief physical examinations, vital signs measurements, electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements, signs and symptoms of active tuberculosis (TB), laboratory assessments including chemistry, hematology and urinalysis during the study.

    Change From Baseline in Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI) Score Through Week 32
    End point description
    The HAQ-DI assesses the degree of difficulty a subject has in accomplishing tasks in 8 functional areas, each scored from 0 (no difficulty) to 3 (inability to perform a task). mITT analysis set included all subjects who received at least a partial dose of the study drug. Here, 99999 signifies that no subjects were in Placebo group after Week 16 and in Placebo-CNTO6785 200 mg group till Week 16. Here, ‘n’ signifies number of subjects analyzed for this endpoint at given timepoint.
