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   44335   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To evaluate the immunogenicity of the 15 μg haemagglutinin (HA) and 30 μg HA antigen doses of 2009 H1N1 vaccine (H1N1 vaccine) in two cohorts of healthy children: Cohort A: participants aged 6 months to less than 3 years ; Cohort B: participants aged 3 years to less than 9 years.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study protocol, the study protocol amendments, the Participant Information Sheet (PIS) and the Informed Consent Form (ICF) were reviewed and approved by an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC). This study was conducted under an Australian Clinical Trial Notification scheme and documented in accordance with the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki.

    HI antibody titre seroconversion was defined as participants with a pre-vaccination titre of less than 1:10 achieving a post-vaccination HI antibody titre of 1:40 or more; or participants with a pre-vaccination HI titre of 1:10 or more achieving a four-fold or greater increase in post-vaccination HI titre. The Evaluable Population (for the first vaccination) comprised all randomised participants who received the first study vaccination; provided both pre- and post-vaccination blood samples; were not excluded from analyses (eg, for the use of a prohibited medication or a laboratory-confirmed 2009 H1N1 infection between Visit 1 and Visit 3).

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    29 Jun 2009
    The purpose of the first protocol amendment was to make the following revisions to the protocol: To incorporate changes to the exclusion criteria. Exclusion criteria were updated to exclude - Participants with a laboratory-confirmed infection with untyped influenza A since May 2009. - Participants who were receiving immunosuppressive or immunomodulative therapy, or have received such therapy within the 3 months preceding study entry. - To update the list of prohibited medications to include immunosuppressive or immunomodulative therapy.
    01 Oct 2009
    The purpose of the second protocol amendment was to make the following revisions to the protocol: - In order to aid public health decision-making regarding a potential 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine immunisation program, the randomisation code will be unblinded after all enrolled participants complete the Active Study Period and the data collected during the Active Study Period are entered into the database. This modification altered the study design from a randomised, observer-blind, parallel group study to a randomised, observer-blind parallel group study with an open-label follow-up study period. - To clarify the tertiary analyses.
