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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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
    Anxiolytic effects of CALMVALERA HEVERT tablets shall be tested in subjects suffering from test anxiety after single intake by aid of a newly developed, validated method consisting of a combination of Eye-Tracking (following glances) with Neurocode-Tracking (quantitative EEG with a time resolution of 364 ms) termed “EnkephaloVision”. Comparison of verum and placebo is performed on electric power in 17 different brain regions using six frequency ranges defined as target parameters in the presence of different stress inducing cognitive tests and emotional video scenes (i.e. quiz, memory test, Stroop test). With respect to cognition and emotion changes in frontal and temporal spectral beta power are evaluated.

    End point title
    Memory test [1]
    End point description
    The primary endpoint was the change in 17-channel EEG recording combined with eye-tracking after intake of Calmvalera in comparison to placebo. Method: Quantitative-topographical EEG by measurement of current source density during different cognitive and emotional challenges. Combination of Neurocode-Tracking (quantitative-topographic EEG with epoch length of 364 ms) with Eye-Tracking (following eye gazes) termed “EnkephaloVision. The results cannot be presented as numbers and units. A statistical significant increase of alpha1 and alpha2 activity was observed (see attached chart) after intake of Calmvalera, but not of delta-theta or beta electric activity nor psychometric performance.

    End point timeframe
    The memory test was a secondary endpoint, primary endpoint was the EEG evaluation, see description below.
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: No statistical test was performed for the memory test.
