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

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate pharmacokinetics profile in plasma of DOTAREM following single intravenous injection in pediatric subjects aged up to 23 months (inclusive)
    Protection of trial subjects
    A PK population approach with sparse blood sampling was used to minimize the clinical burden to children.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: 51 subjects were enrolled. Among them 45 subjects received IMP. 6 subjects did not reach the baseline period due to non-completion of the pre-assignment period; reasons are reported. Baseline period includes subjects who received IMP only.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    02 Sep 2014
    Change the study phase from phase I to phase IV: the Investigational Medicinal Product (DOTAREM®) was used in the study in indications and population approved in the countries where the study was conducted. The reference document was the local Summary of Product Characteristics. Add clarification on the collection of blood for PK
    24 Mar 2015
    Removal of coordinating investigator due to the death of Pr Guy Sebag. Recruitment period extended to Q4 2015 and enlarged to 20 sites worldwide. Inclusion criterion related to the normal renal function was clarified. Non-inclusion criterion related to severe liver disease was clarified. Non-inclusion criterion related to the previous participation to a clinical study was reduced to 7 days. Non-inclusion criteria related to the concomitant participation to a clinical study was clarified. The group of age was collected instead of date of birth according to local regulations in some countries. The definition of overdose was added to follow an update in Good Vigilance Practice. Rules for rounding the dose administered were then removed. Adverse event definition, including overdose, was updated. The “safety follow-up phone call” at visit 4 was changed in a “safety follow-up contact” which allowed different ways to monitor the subject’s safety at day 7 +/-1. Clarifications were made on the use of local laboratory data to validate the normal renal function at inclusion time.
