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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    Approximately 56 patients were to be enrolled (14 patients per treatment group) to ensure 12 evaluable patients in each of the 4 treatment groups.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Screening began up to 60 days prior to baseline visit allowing a washout period for patients taking OCP. Patients who had assessment more than 3 weeks prior to baseline returned to the site between Day -21 to -2 for repeat lab assessments. Patients not taking OCP who had had screening assessments within 3 weeks of baseline did not repeat lab tests
