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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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.

    After treatment period the patients will be controlled for a follow-up period of 13 weeks without administration of treatment. Since the enrolled patient belong to the pool of the investigational site, it is forseen that they will continue the treatment for NASH according to the standard site clinical practice. At this stage the a care program after the study period has not been evaluated, it will be possible to evaluate this possibility only once results of interim analysis will be obtained.
    Dupa perioada de tratament, pacientii vor fi controlati pentru o perioada de urmarire de 13 săptămâni fără administrarea de tratament . Având în vedere că pacientii înscriși sunt cunoscuti centrului investigational, se prevede că vor continua tratamentul pentru SHNA, conform practicii clinice standard. În această etapă a programului, o îngrijire după perioada de studiu nu a fost evaluată , va fi posibil de a evalua această posibilitate odată ce vor fi obținute rezultatele analizei intermediare .
