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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    F.5 Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)
    Subjects will not receive any additional treatment from GSK after completion of the study because other treatment options are available.
    The investigator is responsible for ensuring that consideration has been given to the poststudy
    care of the subject’s medical condition, whether or not GSK is providing specific post-study treatment.
    I soggetti non riceveranno alcun trattamento aggiuntivo da GSK dopo il completamento dello studio, perché sono disponibili altre opzioni di trattamento.
    Lo Sperimentatore deve assicurare che sia stato preso in considerazione come trattare la condizione clinica del paziente alla fine dello studio, a prescindere o meno che GSK fornisca uno specifico trattamento dopo lo studio.
