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.

    Biomarker Blood Samples
    It is planned to perform biomarker analyses in blood samples from approximately 60% of randomised subjects. The decision concerning which biomarkers will be analysed will be made by in collaboration with the Study Steering Committee, together with the Sponsor. If the biomarker samples will not be analysed, they will be destroyed. Details concerning the blood samples storage will be provided in an instruction manual. If conducted, the statistical analysis for the biomarker blood samples will be detailed in a separate biomarker SAP and results of these exploratory analyses will be not part of the clinical study report of the main study .
    Muestras sanguíneas para biomarcadores.
    Se planea en efectuar un análisis de biomarcadores en sangre en aproximadamente un 60% de los pacientes aleatorizados. La decisión referente a que biomarcadores se analizaran se hará en colaboración con el Comité de Dirección del Estudio junto con el Promotor. Si el biomarcador no se analizara seria destruido. Los detalles del almacenaje de las muestras de sangre se facilitaran en un “Manual de Instrucciones”. Si se llevara a cabo, el análisis estadístico de los biomarcadores en sangre se detallaran en un SAP separado de biomarcadores y los resultados de este análisis exploratorio no serán parte del “Informe Clínico del Estudio” del estudio principal.
