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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) data on intravenous (i.v.) daptomycin administered at 8 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) as a 1 hour infusion or 10 mg/kg as either a 1 or 2 hour infusion in pediatric subjects aged 2 to 6 years, inclusive, with proven or suspected Gram-positive infection who were receiving standard antibiotic therapy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This open-label study did not employ any blinding methods. Screening assessments included demographics and medical history, physical examination, vital signs, brief neurologic examination, electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory tests (chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, serum creatinine, and serum creatine phosphokinase). Study subjects were monitored for adverse events. After the first 6 subjects enrolled in Group 1 had completed laboratory testing and the follow-up visit, the Investigators and the Sponsor’s medical and PK representatives reviewed pertinent PK and safety data and decided whether or not to continue enrollment to 12 subjects.
