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.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To determine if ticagrelor (a blood thinning medication) reduces the levels of plasma high-sensitivity troponin I (a protein in the blood that is associated with increased risk of heart attacks in the future) in patients with stable heart disease but evidence of high-risk features on heart scans.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    a) To determine if ticagrelor (a blood thinning medication) reduces the levels of plasma high-sensitivity troponin I (a blood test that is associated with increased risk of heart attacks in the future) in patients with stable coronary heart disease and no evidence of high-risk features on heart scans.

    b) To determine if ticagrelor reduces the level of plasma high-sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI) over 1 year

    c) To determine if ticagrelor will reduce the size of fatty deposits (plaques) or calcium (hardening) in the coronary arteries

    d) To assess the evolution of plaque rupture and recovery on PET scanning over time
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Reproducibility and Natural History of 18F Sodium Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography Assessment of the Vulnerable Plaque

    The objective of this sub-study is to confirm the reproducibility (i.e. do lesions remain consistent in demonstrating the presence or absence of tracer uptake when the scan is repeated at an interval of 1 week?) and assess the natural history (i.e. over what time period do lesions continue to demonstrate tracer uptake, and what is the rate of development of new 18F-F positive plaques?) of 18F-F PET imaging.

    5. Inability or unwilling to give informed consent
    6. Women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or of child-bearing potential (women who have experienced menarche, are pre-menopausal and have not been sterilised) will not be enrolled into the trial
