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.

    Clinical benefit is defined as having a CR or PR or stable disease (using RECIST, v1.1) at 6 months. Subjects with no post-baseline response assessment are considered as experiencing no clinical benefit. CR: disappearance of all target lesions; and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. Stable disease: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum while in the study. PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline; an absolute increase of at least 5 mm in the sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of one or more new lesions.

    End point description
    Cmax is the maximum observed concentration of a drug and was measured in blood plasma. The pharmacokinetic (PK) population included subjects who had received at least one dose of study treatment and had at least one serum or plasma concentration result available at clinical data cut-off. Data are reported for evaluable subjects.

    Percentage of Subjects with PFS Event of Disease Progression, as per Investigator Assessment According to RECIST v. 1.1, or Death
    End point description
    PFS is defined as the time from first study drug administration to first documented disease progression, based on investigator assessment using RECIST, v1.1, or death from any cause during the study, whichever occurs first. Disease progression is defined as: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline; an absolute increase of at least 5 mm in the sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of one or more new lesions. The efficacy-evaluable population included subjects who received at least one dose of study drug.

    Percentage of Subjects with DOR Event of Disease Progression, Assessed According to RECIST v1.1
    End point description
    DOR is defined as the time from the initial documentation of response (CR or PR using RECIST, v1.1) to documented disease progression using RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause during the study. CR: disappearance of all target lesions; and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. Disease progression: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline; an absolute increase of at least 5 mm in the sum of diameters of target lesions; the appearance of one or more new lesions. The efficacy-evaluable population included subjects who received at least one dose of study drug.
