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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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.

    An Adverse Event (AE) was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the study or use of investigational drug product, whether or not the AE was considered to be related to the investigational drug product. TEAEs were AEs with a start date on or after the first dose of investigational product and started prior to the last dose of investigational product plus 14 days. Safety population included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of the investigational product was analysed for this end point.

    Change From Baseline in Pruritus as Measured by Adult Itch Reported Outcome (ItchRO) Weekly Sum Score at Week 14
    End point description
    The Adult ItchRO instrument was completed twice daily using an electronic diary (eDiary). Each morning and evening score had a range from 0-10, with the higher score indicating increasing itch severity. The following was used for assessing the Adult ItchRO daily score: The score which represented the most severe itching for the day (morning or evening) was taken for each day as the daily score (maximum daily score of 10); If only 1 of the 2 scores was available for the day, the score that was available was used as the daily score; If both the morning and the evening scores were missing, the score was considered missing for the day. mITT population was analysed for this end point.
