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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 safety and reactogenicity profile of VaxemHib in Korean children.
    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.
