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

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Immunogenicity Endpoints
    The primary immunogenicity endpoints are HPV-9 cLIA geometric mean titers (GMTs) to HPV 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 at 4 weeks post last dose.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    As stated above
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Immunogenicity Endpoints
    The secondary immunogenicity endpoints are the HPV-9 cLIA seroconversion percentages to each of HPV 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58 by 4 weeks post last dose. Seroconversion is defined as changing serostatus from seronegative to seropositive, by 4 weeks post last dose. A subject with a HPV-9 cLIA titer at or above the serostatus cutoff for a given HPV type is considered seropositive for that type.

    Safety Endpoints
    Safety assessment will focus on the serious adverse experiences which will be collected for
    the duration of the study.
