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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To assess the reactogenicity of MenACWY-cross reactive material (CRM) and MenACWY-tetanus toxoid (TT) vaccines, given to healthy toddlers at 12-15 months of age, as measured by the percentage of subjects with at least one severe solicited Adverse Event (AE) reported between 6 hours and Day 7 post vaccination.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This clinical study was designed and was to be implemented and reported in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Harmonized Tripartite Guidelines for Good Clinical Practices (GCPs), with applicable local regulations including European Directive 2001/20/EC, United States (US) Code of Federal Regulations Title 21, and Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare, Novartis codes on protection of human rights, and with the ethical principles laid down in the Declaration of Helsinki (European Council 2001, US Code of Federal Regulations, ICH 1997).

    End point description
    Reactogenicity of MenACWY-CRM and comparator MenACWY-TT vaccine was assessed in subjects (12 to 15 months old) as measured by number of subjects with at least one severe solicited AE within 7 days after vaccination.

    6. Percentages of subjects with rSBA titer ≥ 128 against serogroups A, C, W, and Y after receiving one dose of either MenACWY-CRM vaccine or MenACWY-TT vaccine.
    End point description
    Immunogenicity of one dose of MenACWY-CRM and comparator MenACWY-TT vaccine was assessed in subjects (12 to 15 months old) as measured by the percentages of subjects with rSBA titer ≥ 128 directed against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W, and Y on Day 29 after vaccination. Persistence of immune responses was measured by percentages of subjects with rSBA titer ≥ 128 on Day 180. Analysis was done on FAS at Visit Day 29 ie, all subjects in the enrolled set who received the study vaccine and provided immunogenicity data at Visit Day 29 (MenACWY-CRM 95; MenACWT-TT 97). Persistence of immune responses at Day 180 was analysed on FAS at Visit Day 180, ie, all subjects in the enrolled set who received the study vaccine and provide immunogenicity data at Visit Day 180 (Men ACWY-CRM 98; MenACWT-TT 97).
