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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Analyze the degree of metabolic control achieved by a pattern of regular insulin in the stock of parenteral nutrition (PN) plus glargine subcutaneous insulin, compared to regular insulin in the stock of PN.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial should be conducted in accordance with the protocol following the sponsor's SOPs. The trial shall be conducted in accordance with the recommendations for Clinical Trials and Investigational Product Evaluation in humans, as contained in the Declaration of Helsinki, as revised at successive World Assemblies (WMA, 2013), and the current Spanish Clinical Trial Legislation (RD 1090/2015). The ICH-GCP standards (CPMP/ICH/135/95) will be followed.
