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   44237   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To select the optimal formulation of the NoV bivalent VLP vaccine from different dosages of VLP for further development:
    * By assessing the seroresponse rate (percentage of subjects with ≥4-fold rises) in serum anti-NoV GI.1 VLP and GII.4 VLP antibody titers by Pan immunoglobin (Pan-Ig) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
    * By assessing the safety profile of different formulations of the NoV bivalent VLP vaccine as measured by solicited local and systemic adverse events (AEs) for the period of 7 days after each vaccination and as measured by the occurrence of unsolicited AEs 28 days after each vaccination, and serious adverse events (SAEs) throughout the trial.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    * To evaluate the geometric mean titers (GMT) and GMFRs of anti-NoV GI.1 VLP and GII.4 VLP antibody titers as measured by Pan-Ig ELISA.
    * To evaluate the seroresponse rate in serum anti-NoV GI.1 VLP and/or GII.4 VLP antibody blocking titers as measured by histoblood group antigen (HBGA) binding assay.
    * To evaluate Geometric Mean Blocking Titers (BT50) and GMFR of serum anti-NoV antibody titers for GI.1 VLP and GII.4 VLP as measured by the HBGA binding assay.
    * To assess safety by the incidence of AEs leading to subject’s withdrawal from the trial
    throughout the trial.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    * Male and female subjects aged between 6 weeks and less than 9 years at the time of enrollment.

    10. Subjects participating in any clinical trial with another investigational product 30 days prior to first trial visit or intent to participate in another clinical trial at any time during the conduct of this trial.
    11. Subjects who received any other vaccines within 14 days (for inactivated vaccines) or 28 days (for live vaccines) prior to enrollment in this trial.
    12. Subjects who are first degree relatives of individuals involved in trial conduct.
    13. Subjects with a history of autoimmune disease.
    14. There may be instances when individuals meet all entry criteria except one that relates to transient clinical circumstances (eg, body temperature elevation or recent use of excluded medication or vaccine). Under these circumstances, a subject may be considered eligible for trial enrollment if the appropriate window for delay has passed, inclusion/exclusion criteria have been rechecked, and if the subject is confirmed to be eligible
