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   44351   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7378   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.

    Primary: Rate of patients alive and without progression 6 months after inclusion

    End point title
    Rate of patients alive and without progression 6 months after inclusion [1]
    End point description
    The primary endpoint of this trial was the rate of patients alive and progression-free 6 months (+/- 15 days) after randomization. Progression was assessed by the investigator according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, on the basis of imaging examinations performed every 8 weeks, even in the event of deferred treatments. Clinical progressions not confirmed on imaging were not included in the primary endpoint. Patients with progression on imaging examinations prior to 6 months were considered as having progressed at 6 months.

    End point timeframe

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The study was a non-comparative study that's why no statistical analysis was done.

    Response was assessed on the basis of all patients' radiological examinations according to RECIST 1.1 criteria, as determined by the investigator during protocol treatment. Any scans performed after discontinuation of protocol therapy (within 2 months) was taken into account if no second-line therapy started.
