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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of wide-spectrum antibiotic regimens in acute severe colitis in an addition to standard corticosteroid therapy, in an open label, investigator-blinded, add-on randomized trial.
    L’obiettivo di questo studio pilota è di valutare l’efficacia di una terapia antibiotica combinata in pazienti pediatrici sottoposti a terapia cortisonica endovenosa per colite severa (ASC e IBDU) in un trial randomizzato, “add-on”, open-label, investigator-blinded. Si paragoneranno 2 trattamenti: il primo gruppo riceverà antibiotici in aggiunta agli steroidi (gruppo “CS+AB”), mentre il secondo riceverà un trattamento steroideo (gruppo di terapia standard “CS”).
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - Remission rates (defined by PUCAI<10) without the need for second line therapy (anti TNF, cyclosporine or tacrolimus) or colectomy, at days 7, separately at discharge, separately at day 14, and separately at 90 days.
    - Number of patients with PUCAI<35 points at day 5, without the need for second line therapy (anti TNF, cyclosporine or tacrolimus) or colectomy.
    - The need for second line therapy by discharge and by 90 days.
    - Calprotectin levels at 5 and 14 days after treatment.
    - Change in microbiome pattern.
    - Rate of gastrointestinal carriage of resistant organisms (VRE, ESBL) at days 5 and 14 after treatment.
    - Rate of C. difficile infection at days 5 and 14 after treatment.
    Valutare:
    -i tassi di remissione (definiti con un PUCAI<10) senza la necessità di ricorrere ad una terapia di seconda linea (anti-TNF, ciclosporina o tacrolimus) o a colectomia, al giorno 7, alla dimissione, al giorno 14, e a 90 giorni;
    -il numero di pazienti con un PUCAI<35 al giorno 5,senza la necessità di ricorrere ad una terapia di seconda linea o a colectomia;
    -la necessità di ricorrere ad una terapia di seconda linea o a colectomia alla dimissione, a 90 giorni e ad un anno;
    -i livelli di calprotectina nei giorni 0, 5, 14, alle dimissioni, nei mesi 1, 2, 3, 6 e 12 dopo il trattamento;
    -le modificazioni del microbioma nei giorni 0, 5, 14, alle dimissioni, nei mesi 1, 2, 3, 6 e 12 dopo il trattamento;
    -la presenza di batteri resistenti a livello intestinale al giorno 10 e nei mesi 1, 2, 3, 6 e 12 dopo il trattamento;
    -il tasso di incidenza di infezioni da C.difficile al giorno 10, e nei mesi 1, 2, 3, 6, 12 dopo il trattamento con analisi PCR.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    - Children between 6 and 18 years with established diagnosis of UC and IBDU using standard criteria (1, 2).

    - PUCAI di almeno 65 al momento del ricovero;
    - Capacità di assumere terapia orale;
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    - Disease confined to the rectum (Proctitis).
