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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    D.8 Information on Placebo
    E. General Information on the Trial
    E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
    E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
    Neuromuscular block is commonly adopted during general anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation and surgical manipulation. At the end of anesthesia it very important to avoid residual neuromuscular block to ensure adequate respiratory function preventing postoperative pulmonary complications. This trial compares the neuromuscular block reversal with different drugs (sugammadex vs neostigmine) after thoracic anesthesia.
    Il blocco neuromuscolare è adottato in corso di anestesia generale per facilitare l'intubazione tracheale, la ventilazione meccanica e la manipolazione chirurgica. Al termine dell'anestesia è importante evitare la paralisi muscolare residua per garantire un'adeguata funzione respiratoria al paziente e ridurre il rischio di complicanze respiratorie postoperatorie. Lo studio confronta due antagonisti per il blocco neuromuscolare da rocuronio (sugammadex vs neostigmina) dopo anestesia toracica.
    E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
    This study compares the efficacy of two drugs (sugammadex vs neostigmine) as reversal of muscular paralysis due to neuromuscular blocking agents administered during thoracic anesthesia.
    Lo studio compara due farmaci (sugammadex vs neostigmina) nell'antagonizzare la paralisi muscolare indotta da farmaci paralizzanti durante anestesia toracica.
    E.1.1.2Therapeutic area Analytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment [E] - Anesthesia and Analgesia [E03]
    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
    The trial main objective is to demonstrate that sugammadex is faster than neostigmine to reach a TOF-ratio of 0.9 after thoracic anesthesia.
    TOF-ratio is defined as the ratio of the fourth muscular twitch/first twitch value during an accelerometric train-of-four stimulation.
    Dimostrare che sugammadex è più rapido della neostigmina nel favorire il raggiungimento di un TOF-ratio di 0.9 dopo anestesia toracica. Il TOF-ratio è definito come il rapporto tra l'intensità della quarta contrazione muscolare e la prima contrazione durante un treno di quattro stimoli mediante monitoraggio neuromuscolare accelerometrico.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Demonstrate that sugammadex allows a faster extubation.
    Verify if there is a difference between sugammadex and neostigmine as regards adverse events after extubation and in the postoperative period (until the 30th day after surgery).
    Dimostrare che sugammadex abbrevia il tempo necessario per l'estubazione dei pazienti.
    Verificare se vi sia una differenza tra sugammadex e neostigmina in termini di incidenza di eventi avversi dopo l'estubazione e fino al 30mo giorno dopo l'intervento.
