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
    Efficacy of the the nintedanib- docetaxel combination in second-line treatment in patients with no squamous non small cell lung cancer refractory to first line chemotherapy
    Protection of trial subjects
    The informed consent of a patient is obtained prior to any study related procedures as per Good Clinical Practices (GCP) as set forth in the ICH guidelines. Documentation that informed consent occurred prior to the patient’s entry into the study and of the informed consent process is recorded in the patient’s source documents. In addition, if a protocol is amended and it impacts on the content of the informed consent, patients participating in the study are informed and re-consente is required. Finally, a DSMB was set up to monitor the progress of the trial and the adverse effects.
