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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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.

    Subject analysis set description
    The trial required 56 patients to have a power of 95% to detect a 6% difference in LS-BMD between the two treatment groups with a two-sided error α probability of 0.05. Data for continuous variables are presented as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM). Data for categorical variables are presented as number and/or frequencies. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to test the normality of distribution of continuous variables. Within group comparisons of continuous variables were performed with repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) or Friedman test. In case of statistically significant trend, multiple pairwise comparisons were performed with Bonferroni post-hoc adjustment. Independent T-test or Mann-Whitney test were used to compare continuous variables between groups. Chi-square or Fischer’s exact test were used for comparisons of categorical variables between groups. Spearman’s (rs) coefficient of correlation was used for bivariate correlations between continuous variables. A
