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 principal research objective is to examine whether giving a certain type of blood-salt (called bicarbonate) through a vein before we perform a type of surgery to fix swellings (called aneurysms) of the abdominal aorta (the main blood vessel in the abdomen) can prevent damage to the kidneys. Kidney damage, or "Acute kidney injury (AKI)" is a common problem after this type of surgery (the medical term of which is EVAR - that stands for "endovascular repair of and abdominal aortic aneurysm"). Our data suggest that almost 1 in 5 patients having this surgery develop kidney damage. It is well established that this kidney damage (or AKI) can impact on death rates, morbidity, and cost. Bicarbonate, which is a blood-salt, may prevent this. Previous studies in similar types of surgery have shown it to be beneficial in terms of preventing kidney damage. However, it has not been adequately assessed in patients undergoing EVAR so far. To answer this question we need to perform a large expen
