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   44341   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7370   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 main purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of standard medical treatment (SMT) plus long-term Albutein 20% (SMT + Albutein 20%) administration on 1-year transplant-free survival versus SMT alone. The study population will consist of participants being discharged after hospitalization for acute decompensation of liver cirrhosis with ascites (or with prior history of ascites requiring diuretic therapy) with or without acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) at admission or during hospitalization but without ACLF at discharge.

    Time to Liver Transplantation or Death Through 1 Year After Randomization: Percentage of Participants With an Event
    End point description
    Time to one-year transplant-free survival was calculated as earlier of [(date of liver transplantation or date of death) – randomization date + 1] for participants who died or had liver transplant within the analysis period of 361 days. Participants who neither died nor had liver transplant within analysis period had their time to event censored at earlier of date of last contact or cut-off date. Participants who terminated early for reasons other than death were followed up at months 3, 6, and 12 to collect information on liver transplantation and death, these events if reported by cut-off Day 361, were considered for the endpoint. The percentage of participants with events are presented. The percentage of participants was calculated as [(participants with an event up to the analysis cut-off Day 361) / (number of participants in the ITT group)]. ITT population included all participants who were randomized.

Incidence of refractory ascites occurring on treatment was defined as any incidence that occurred with a start date/time on or after the participants date/time of randomization (for SMT Alone group) or commencement of Albutein (SMT+ Albutein 20% group) treatment.
