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   43861   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.

    After the study is finished patients will continue with their regular follow-up appointments and examinations as before the trial. If the trial has a favourable outcome (i.e. smaller tumour size in Lanreotide users) discussion will follow if Somatuline autosolution can be registered for use in Gallium-68 DOTATATE PET-positive non-functioning pituitary macroadenoma.
    Na het einde van de studie zullen de patiënten hun reguliere behandeling hervatten in de vorm van controle afspraken en onderzoeken zoals vóór de studie. Indien de resultaten positief blijken (oftewel: afname van tumorgrootte in lanreotide gebruikers) dan zal bekeken worden of Somatuline autosolution geregistreerd kan worden voor de behandeling van Gallium-68 DOTATATE PET-positieve niet-functionerende hypofyse macroadenomen.
