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   44336   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.

    1. To demonstrate a sufficient immune response of four doses of MenACWY given to infants at 2, 4, 6 and 12 months of age as measured by the percentage of subjects with serum bactericidal activity using human complement (hSBA) ≥ 1:8, directed against N. meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y.
    2. To demonstrate immunological non-inferiority of two MenACWY infant doses and a toddler dose (doses at 2, 4 and 12 months of age) to three infant doses and a toddler dose (doses at 2, 4, 6 and 12 months of age) as measured by percentage of subjects with hSBA ≥ 1:8 against N. meningitidis serogroups C, W and Y at 13 months of age.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - Immune response against A,C,W and Y serogroup polysaccharides among subjects 2 (baseline), 3 (single dose at 2 months), 4 (single dose at 2 months), 5 (doses at 2, 4 months) and 7 (doses at 2, 4 and 6 months) months old.
    - Immune response at 7 months of age (2 doses at 2 and 4 months of age)
    - Persistence of the bactericidal activity of 2 MenACWY infant doses and 3 infant doses as measured by percentage of subjects with hSBA ≥ 1:8 at 12 months of age
    - Immune responses at 1 month after a toddler dose of MenACWY at 12 months of age following a 2 vs. a 3 infant dose schedule as measured by GMTs and 4-fold rise in hSBA.
    - Effect of concomitant administration of MenACWY on immune responses to PCV-13 antigens when measured at 7 months of age and 13 months of age.
    - Percentage of subjects with at least one severe systemic reaction during days 1-7 after any vaccination

    routine infant vaccines.
