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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 ).

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to investigate the ability of betamethasone valerate 2.25 mg medicated plaster, as compared to placebo plaster (same formulation but without active ingredient), to reduce pain when topically applied daily, according to two different dose regimens (i.e., 12 or 24 hours of application/day), and during a period of 4 weeks, in patients suffering from chronic lateral elbow tendinopathy and chronic midportion Achilles tendinopathy.
    Obiettivo principale dello studio: valutare l’efficacia del cerotto medicato contenente 2.25 mg di betametasone valerato, rispetto al placebo (stessa formulazione ma senza principio attivo) nel ridurre il dolore quando applicato localmente quotidianamente, secondo due diversi regimi di trattamento (12 o 24 ore di applicazione/giorno), e per un periodo di 4 settimane, in pazienti affetti da tendinopatia cronica laterale del gomito e tendinopatia cronica della porzione mediana del tendine di Achille
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Secondary objectives of the study are the evaluation of the local tolerability at the site of plaster application, with particular attention to any atrophic change of the skin, and the appreciation of the general safety of the tested medication.
    Obiettivi secondari dello studio sono la valutazione della tollerabilità locale nel sito di applicazione del cerotto, con particolare attenzione a qualsiasi cambiamento atrofico della pelle, e la valutazione della sicurezza generale del cerotto in studio.
