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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Merck will conduct Future Biomedical Research on DNA (blood) specimens collected during this clinical trial. Such research is for biomarker testing to address emergent questions not described elsewhere in the protocol (as part of the main trial) and will only be conducted on specimens from appropriately consented subjects. The objective of collecting specimens for Future Biomedical Research is to explore and identify biomarkers that inform the scientific understanding of diseases and/or their therapeutic treatments. The overarching goal is to use such information to develop safer, more effective drugs, and/or to ensure that subjects receive the correct dose of the correct drug at the correct time.
    Merck realizará Investigaciones Biomédicas Futuras sobre muestras de ADN (sangre) extraídas durante este ensayo clínico. Este tipo de investigación se basa en pruebas de biomarcadores y sirve para abordar cuestiones emergentes que no se describen en otro lugar del protocolo (como parte del ensayo principal) y sólo será llevado a cabo en muestras de sujetos que hayan consentido debidamente. El objetivo de la recogida de muestras para Investigación Biomédica Futura es explorar e identificar biomarcadores que ayuden al conocimiento científico de las enfermedades y / o sus tratamientos terapéuticos. El objetivo general es utilizar dicha información para desarrollar medicamentos más eficaces, más seguros, y / o para asegurar que los sujetos reciben la dosis correcta del medicamento correcto en la hora correcta.

    -Alkaline phosphatase < or = to 3.0 x upper limit of normal
    -AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) < or = to 5.0 x upper limit of normal
    Note: A single repeat of a laboratory screening test will be allowed for test results that are unexpected based on documented prior laboratory results but the repeat test results must be available within the 45 day screening window.
    6. has a calculated creatinine clearance > or = to 30 mL/min at time of screening, based on the following Cockcroft-Gault equations:
    Male:
    Clcr (mL/min) = (140-age) x weight (in kg)
    72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL)
    Female:
    Clcr (mL/min) = (140-age) x weight (in kg) x 0.85
    72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL)
    7. in the opinion of the investigator, be considered clinically stable with no signs or symptoms of active infection, at the time of entry into the study (i.e., clinical status and all chronic medications should be unchanged for at least 2 weeks prior to the start of treatment in this study).
    8. agree to one of the following if of reproductive potential :
    True abstinence: Abstinence is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. [Periodic abstinence (e.g., abstinence only on certain calendar days, abstinence only during ovulation period, use of symptothermal method, use of post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception].
    Use of an acceptable method of birth control throughout the study (either by subject or subjects partner). Acceptable methods of birth control are: oral contraceptives, intrauterine device (IUD), diaphragm with spermicide, contraceptive sponge, condom, vasectomy (All forms of hormonal contraception are acceptable).

    Note: Subject who is not of reproductive potential1; is not sexually active, whose current partner(s) is/are not of reproductive potential, or whose sexual activity is exclusively homosexual is eligible without requiring the use of contraception. However, use of barrier methods of contraception is strongly encouraged to reduce the risk of HIV-1 transmission during sexual contact.
    1. A subject who is not of reproductive potential is defined as: one who has reached menopause (no menses for 1 year), undergone hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, tubal ligation, or a successful vasectomy. A successful vasectomy is defined as: (1) microscopic documentation of azoospermia, or (2) a vasectomy more than 2 years ago with no resultant pregnancy despite sexual activity post vasectomy.
