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.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    25 Nov 2015
    - Clarification of the examinations to be carried out during post-treatment follow-up - Analysis of HPV status for patients with an oropharynx tumor - Development of the research hypothesis, following the question asked by the EC during the initial submission
    19 Feb 2016
    -Clarification of the examinations to be carried out: certain examinations present in the body of the protocol have been forgotten in the table of investigations; - Modification of the duration of follow-up of the study due to topography error: In the synopsis, it is noted that the follow-up is up to one year while in the table of investigations, it is up to 3 years; - Urine samples are made optional; - Pharmacokinetics (PK) is also made optional because it requires a lot of involvement from the center. On the other hand, if the center decides to do it, it will only be carried out during the first cycle of treatment.
