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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This study was conducted between 27 November 2015 (first patient, screening visit) and 22 June 2018 (last patient, completed) at seven sites (one did not enrol) in the UK.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    104 (95.4%) patients received 18F-fluciclovine injection, 103 (94.5%) patients completed the study and 6 (5.5%) patients prematurely discontinued the study. The most frequent reason for withdrawal was screening failure (5 [4.6%] patients). In addition, 1 (0.9%) patient had ‘other’ listed as their reason for study discontinuation.
