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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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 if dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily when compared to placebo improves insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle after 8 weeks of treatment in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) patients
    Protection of trial subjects
    At any time, subjects were free to discontinue IP or withdraw from the study (i.e., IP and assessments), without prejudice to further treatment. A subject that decided to discontinue IP was always asked about the reason(s) and the presence of any AEs. If possible, they were seen and assessed by an Investigator. If a subject withdrew after at least 4 weeks of treatment, the assessment normally scheduled at Visit 4 could be performed at the time of the withdrawal (except when the informed consent had been withdrawn). AEs were followed up and all remaining IP was returned by the subject.
    Background therapy
    		 Stable metformin, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-IV) or sulphonylurea treatment, or on stable treatment with metformin in combination with sulphonylurea or DPP-IV
    Evidence for comparator
    		 Placebo comparator represents absence of additional treatment with an anti-diabetic agent.
