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.

    Comparison will be made of in vitro tumour-cell platelet interactions prior to treatment with the same assays repeated after 2-weeks treatment with each study drug alone. There will be a 2-week washout period after the first drug and patients will be randomised as to which study drug they receive first.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    This will not be a clinical endpoint study. The secondary outcome will be an assessment of the differential effect of the study drugs given in combination on tumour cell platelet interaction assays in vitro
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Comparison will be made of in vitro tumour-cell platelet interactions prior to treatment, and following administration of single study drug therapy with both study drugs given in combination.

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    This study is early phase and will therefore only indicate if the effect of Ticagrelor on platelets justifies investment in research to determine if it is clinically effective. The findings of this study will not be sufficient to justify clinical application. The participant information sheet makes clear that the study drugs will not be provided to patient-participants after the end of the project.
