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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the therapeutic equivalence of OsvaRen® granules and tablets. Adult patients on chronic haemodialysis or haemodiafiltration treatment with a diagnosis of hyperphosphataemia were randomised to receive either the study drug (OsvaRen® granules) or the control drug (OsvaRen® tablets) for a period of 4 weeks following a three-week run-in phase. Thereafter, patients on study drug received the control drug and vice versa. The primary parameter to test this was the serum phosphate level at the end of each treatment period.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Every reasonable precaution has been taken to protect the health and safety of subjects.
