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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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 main objective of the study was to demonstrate that domperidone suspension (1 milligram per milliliter [mg/mL]) plus oral rehydration treatment (ORT) was more effective than placebo plus ORT at reducing the symptoms of vomiting associated with acute gastroenteritis (AG) within the first 48 hours of treatment administration in pediatric subjects aged 6 months to 12 years with AG and mild-to-moderate dehydration.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with Good Clinical Practice and applicable regulatory requirements and also known instances of nonconformance were documented and are not considered to have had an impact on the overall conclusions of this study. Safety included incidence, and assessment of adverse events (AEs) vital sign measurements, physical examinations, adverse events of special interest (AESIs) that were referred to as adverse events (AEs) of clinical interest in the data outputs.
