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.

    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    1. To compare the single IV dose of fosaprepitant (in combination with ondansetron) to the ondansetron alone regimen with respect to the efficacy endpoint of Complete Response in the delayed phase (>24 to 120 hours) following the initiation of emetogenic chemotherapy in Cycle 1.
    2. To assess the safety and tolerability of the fosaprepitant regimen in subjects birth to 17 years of age who are receiving emetogenic chemotherapy.
    1. Comparar una dosis IV única de fosaprepitant (en combinación con ondansetrón) con el régimen de ondansetrón solo respecto al criterio de valoración de la eficacia de respuesta completa en la fase diferida (>24 a 120 horas) después del inicio de la quimioterapia emetógena en el ciclo 1.
    2. Evaluar la seguridad y la tolerabilidad del régimen de fosaprepitant en pacientes de 0 a 17 años que reciben quimioterapia emetógena.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1. To compare the fosaprepitant regimen to the control regimen with respect to the efficacy endpoint of Complete Response in the acute phase (0 to 24 hours) following the initiation of emetogenic chemotherapy in Cycle 1.
    2. To compare the fosaprepitant regimen to the control regimen with respect to the efficacy endpoint of Complete Response in the overall phase (0 to 120 hours) following the initiation of emetogenic chemotherapy in Cycle 1.
    3. To compare the fosaprepitant regimen to the control regimen with respect to the efficacy endpoint of No Vomiting, regardless of rescue medication use, in the overall phase (0 to 120 hours) following the initiation of emetogenic chemotherapy in Cycle 1.
    1. Comparar el régimen de fosaprepitant con el régimen de control con respecto al criterio de valoración de la eficacia de respuesta completa en la fase aguda (0 a 24 horas) después del inicio de la quimioterapia emetógena en el ciclo 1.
    2. Comparar el régimen de fosaprepitant con el régimen de control con respecto al criterio de valoración de la eficacia de respuesta completa en la fase global (0 a 120 horas) después del inicio de la quimioterapia emetógena en el ciclo 1.
    3. Comparar el régimen de aprepitant con el régimen de control con respecto al criterio de valoración de la eficacia de ausencia de vómitos, independientemente del uso de medicación de rescate, en la fase global (0 a 120 horas) después del inicio de la quimioterapia emetógena en el ciclo 1.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Yes
    E.2.3.1Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives
    Merck will conduct Future Biomedical Research on DNA (buccal) specimens collected during this clinical trial. Such research is for biomarker testing to address emergent questions not described elsewhere in the protocol (as part of the main trial) and will only be conducted on specimens from appropriately consented subjects. The objective of collecting specimens for Future Biomedical Research is to explore and identify biomarkers that inform the scientific understanding of diseases and/or their therapeutic treatments. The overarching goal is to use such information to develop safer, more effective drugs, and/or to ensure that subjects receive the correct dose of the correct drug at the correct time.
    Merck llevará a cabo investigaciones biomédicas futuras con muestras de ADN (frotis de mucosa yugal) obtenidas durante este estudio clínico. Estas investigaciones tendrán por objeto el análisis de biomarcadores para abordar aspectos nuevos que no se describen en otras partes del protocolo (como parte del ensayo principal) y solo se llevarán a cabo en muestras de los sujetos que hayan otorgado el consentimiento correspondiente. El objetivo de la obtención de muestras para investigaciones biomédicas futuras consiste en estudiar e identificar biomarcadores que proporcionen información a los científicos sobre las enfermedades y sus tratamientos. El objetivo último es utilizar tal información para desarrollar vacunas y fármacos más seguros y eficaces o para garantizar que los sujetos reciban la dosis correcta del fármaco o la vacuna adecuados en el momento preciso.
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    In order to be eligible for participation in this trial, the subject must, for cycle 1:
    1.have parent/legal guardian (legally authorized representative) agreement to the subject?s participation as indicated by parent/legal guardian signature on the informed consent form.
