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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 investigate the efficacy (defined as complete response rate) of TIP in the 1st line treatment of patients with poor prognosis NSGCT and an unfavorable decrease in the serum level of tumor markers after 1 cycle of the BEP regimen.
    Protection of trial subjects
    All the procedures performed in study involving human participants were conducted in accordance with the ethical standards of the institutional and/or national research committee and with the 1964 Helsinki Declaration and its later amendments or comparable ethical standards. Informed consent was obtained from all individual paricipants included in the study.

    End point title
    Complete Response Rate
    End point description
    Complete response to chemotherapy alone is defined as disappearance of all clinical, radiographic, and biochemical evidence of disease for at least 4 weeks; this includes patients in whom surgical resection of residuum yields necrotic debris, fibrosis, or mature teratoma but no evidence of viable malignant tumor. Complete response to chemotherapy plus surgery is defined as complete excision of all masses, at least one of which contained viable tumor other than mature teratoma.
