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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To explore the immunogenicity of two and three doses of rMenB ± OMV in healthy adolescents at 1 month after the second and third doses, by evaluation of the breadth of bactericidal activity (measured by bactericidal complement assay [BCA]) response against a panel of genetically distinct meningococcal strains.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Study vaccines were not administered to individuals with known hypersensitivity to any component of the vaccines. An oral temperature ≥38.0°C (≥100.4°F) or serious active infection was a reason for delaying vaccination. Standard immunization practices were observed and care was taken to administer the injection intramuscularly. As with all injectable vaccines, appropriate medical treatment and supervision was readily available in case of rare anaphylactic reactions following administration of the study vaccine. Epinephrine 1:1000 and diphenhydramine was available in case of any anaphylactic reactions. Care was taken to ensure that the vaccine is not injected into a blood vessel.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    12 Jan 2006
    The evaluation of immunogenicity measured as breadth of BCA and ELISA in a subgroup of subjects 7 days after the third dose was added. It was added that a subgroup of 15 consecutive subjects enrolled at sites 01, 03, and 08 were to provide samples for additional clinical laboratory safety testing including coagulation tests according to the Time and Events Table. This subgroup was to have extended chemistry laboratory evaluations performed at baseline and 7 days after each injection and provide serology samples 7 days after the third injection. The clinical lab safety tests should include PT, INR, PTT, fibrinogen and D-dimer coagulation tests. To provide stopping rules pertaining to clinical laboratory evaluations the following sentence was added: “In the event that any clinical laboratory value is in the alert range and is thought to be related to study vaccine, the study will temporarily be halted.” To exclude a medication known to affect liver function testing the following exclusion criterion was added: “are currently receiving or have received Accutane (Isotretinoin) in the previous 14 days”. The amount of NaCl in the rMenB + OMV vaccine was corrected to 3 mg per 0.5 mL dose. It was clarified that abnormal clinical lab results were not to be graded as mild, moderate or severe. The criteria for assessing safety objectives were inadvertently not included in the original protocol and were therefore added in the amendment
