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   43874   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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
    Following the national legislations, the lower age limit in Germany was 14 years, in Sweden 15 years and in Ukraine 16 years. In Finland, based on the trial centre’s decision, it was 15 years, because parental consent was not needed at this age. It was planned to screen about 130 subjects to have approximately 100 subjects evaluable for safety.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Inclusion criteria: female adolescents aged 12-17 years, with or without intact hymen; postmenarcheal for at least six months; starters of oral contraceptives with at least four regular menstrual cycles during the last six months before screening. Eight subjects were screening failures.

    Assessment of bleeding pattern over the 6 months of the core study [1]
    End point description
    Analysis of the vaginal bleeding pattern included: - Number and rate of subjects with different bleeding patterns, with bleeding and /or spotting, separately for bleeding and spotting, including bleeding by intensity were to be presented for each day of treatment in the corresponding cycle, for each treatment cycle and cumulatively by reference period (Cycles 2 to 4 and Cycles 2 to 6). - Number of bleeding and/or spotting days, separately for bleeding and spotting, and numbers of days with bleeding by intensity were to be summarised by means of the default summary statistics for each treatment cycle and by reference period. Scheduled and unscheduled bleeding presented separately. -Correlation between incidence of unscheduled bleeding and/or spotting and number of missing tablets or entries. Default summary statistics for missed tablets or diary entries by treatment cycle and reference period. p-values from the Wilcoxon-rank-sum-test are presented

    Date
    Amendment
    06 Jun 2014
    Global Protocol Amendment No.1, Final Version 1.0, 06-JUN-2014 was prepared based on the Opinion of the Paediatric Committee on the agreement of a Paediatric Investigation Plan for LF111 (drospirenone). The following changes were implemented: The coordinating investigator from the Netherlands was replaced by one from Finland. Final Version no. 1.0, 10-MAR-2017 CONFIDENTIAL Page 53 of 125 The Dutch CCMO did not approve the trial, thus Sweden was added. Inclusion criterion no 8 “Subjects willing to use an oral contraceptive for at least six cycles” was discarded, to emphasize the voluntary nature of trial participation. At V6, an eligibility check for the extension phase was added. V7 (at the start of cycle 10) was changed from a telephone visit to an on-site visit. Two additional telephone visits V6a (mid of cycle 8) and V7a (end of cycle 11) were added. Handling of the home pregnancy tests at V6a and V7a was added. Documentation of the IMP intake and vaginal bleeding pattern in the diary during the extension phase (cycles 7-13) was added. The possibility to also send a text message to the site on the day of the first IMP intake was added. Eight questions regarding IMP acceptability at V6/EDV and V8/EDV were added.
