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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The main purpose of the trial is to investigate whether intravenous lidocaine administered perioperatively can significantly reduce postoperative morphine consumption during the first 24 hours postoperatively by robot-assisted laparoscopic colon rectal cancer surgery.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The trial participant is carefully observed during the per- and postoperative course with regard to adverse events and events both in the operating room by the anesthetic staff and in the recovery section by the staff here. If any adverse event were observed in this period, they were recorded.Procedures for recording and reporting events / adverse events: Definitions of events and side effects were divided into the following: Event: Any unwanted incident in a clinical trial after a drug with a patient or a subject without the need for a correlation between this and the unwanted event. Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR): Any adverse and undesired reaction to a trial drug regardless of dose. Unexpected adverse reaction: A side effect, whose grade or seriousness does not match the product information (product summary). Severe Incidence (SAE) or serious adverse event (SAR): An event or adverse event irrespective of dose results in death, is life threatening, causes hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization, resulting in significant or sustained disability or incapacity or leads to congenital anomaly or malformation. Unexpected and suspected serious side effects (SUSAR): suspected adverse reactions that are both unexpected and severe.

    We randomized 60 patients in this prospective, randomized, double blinded trial. The patients were treated with 1,5mg/kg bolus and afterwards 1,5mg/kg/h infusion of lidocaine from before anesthesia induction until 2 hours after end of surgery. The control group received an equal volume of isotonic saline.

    Dosage and administration details
    Before anesthesia induction we gave an equal volume of blinded study medication according to 1,5mg/kg bolus from a solution of 0,5% lidocaine with a rate of 300ml/h. Thereafter we started the continuing infusion of the same volume per hour throughout the surgery ending in the PACU 2 hours after end of surgery. A 70kg patient would get 21ml study medication (either isotonic saline or 0,5% lidocaine) as a bolus and 21ml/h until 2 hours after end of surgery.

The patients were treated with 1,5mg/kg bolus and afterwards 1,5mg/kg/h infusion of lidocaine from before anesthesia induction until 2 hours after end of surgery. The control group received an equal volume of isotonic saline. The follow up period was 72 hours. Primary outcome was cumulative morphine consumption at 24 hours. Secondary outcomes were cumulative morphine consumption at 72hours, numerical pain score at 24 hours/72hours, length of stay, incidence of use of antiemetics, time until flatus/defecation.

    Notes
    [1] - Power calculation was done in advance assuming 30% reduction in morphine consumption (based on prior studies by other groups) in the lidocaine group. We needed a power of 80% to detect a difference defined by a p<0,05. According to this calculation we needed 49 patients and decided to include 60 considering there might be dropouts. The data was analyzed according to the intention-to-treat principle.
