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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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
    To evaluate the proportion of patients with event-free survival at 2 years in patients diagnosed of DLBCL with aIPI > 1 or aIPI=1 with elevated levels of beta 2-mcroglobulin (above UNL). UNL= Upper Normal Limit.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Once trial treatment is initiated, pre-treatment visits will be conducted at the start of each cycle, weekly visits at 60 days after the end of the 6 treatment cycles, and follow-up visits every 3 months after the end of the 6 treatment cycles. safety visits 60 days after the end of the 6 treatment cycles and follow-up visits every 3 months for the first 2 years and every 6 months until the 5th year. 2 years and every 6 months until the 5th year.

    Six cycles of treatment with R-CHOP were administered: Rituximab 375 mg/m2 iv on day 1 followed by CHOP-type chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m2 iv on day 1 + Adriamycin 50 mg/m2 iv on day 1 + vincristine 1.4 mg/m2 iv (maximum 2 mg) on day 1 + prednisone 100 mg oral on days 1-5). The cycles were administered every 21 days. The administration of rituximab was performed as an iv infusion. The first infusion was started at a rate of 50 mg/hour, and after the first 30 minutes, the dose could be increased in increments of 50 mg/hour every 30 minutes up to a maximum of 400 mg/hour. Subsequent infusions could be administered at an initial rate of 100 mg/hour and increased by 100 mg/hour at intervals of 30 minutes to a maximum of 400 mg/hour.
