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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    Change From Baseline in Simple Disease Activity Index (SDAI) Score at Week 8
    End point description
    The SDAI is the numerical sum of five outcome parameters: tender joint count (TJC) and swollen joint count (SJC) based on a 28-joint assessment, subject global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PGA) assessed on a visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10 centimeter (cm), where higher scores=greater affection due to disease activity, and C-reactive protein (CRP) measured in terms of milligram per deciliter (mg/dL). SDAI total score= 0 to 86. SDAI greater than or equal to (<=) 3.3 indicates disease remission, greater than (>) 3.4 to 11 = low disease activity, >11 to 26 = moderate disease activity, and >26 = high disease activity. Intent to treat (ITT) analysis set included all subjects who were randomized to the study and received at least one dose of the randomized investigational drug (PF-06651600 or placebo).Here, n=number of subjects evaluable at specified time points only.

    Remission Rate Based on Disease Activity score (DAS28-4[ESR])

    Remission rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with disease remission. DAS28 was calculated from the number of SJC and TJC using the 28 joints count, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (millimeter per hour [mm/hour]) and subject's global assessment (PGA) of disease activity (subject rated arthritis activity assessment with transformed scores ranging 0 to 10; higher scores indicated greater affectation due to disease activity). DAS28 <=3.2 = low disease activity, DAS28 >3.2 to 5.1 = moderate to high disease activity. Subjects who had DAS28 <=3.2 were considered in remission or LDA state. ITT analysis set included all subjects who were randomized to the study and received at least one dose of the randomized investigational drug (PF-06651600 or placebo).

    Remission rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with disease remission. DAS28 is measure of disease activity in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. DAS28-3 (ESR) was calculated from SJC and TJC using 28 joints count, and ESR (millimeters per hour [mm/hour]). Total score range: 0-9.4, higher score=more disease activity. DAS28-3 (ESR) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and >3.2 to 5.1 implied moderate to high disease activity, and DAS28-3 (ESR) <2.6 = remission.

    Remission rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with disease remission. DAS28 is measure of disease activity in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. DAS28-3 (CRP) was calculated from the SJC and TJC using the 28 joints count and CRP (mg/L). Total score range: 0 to 9.4, higher score indicated more disease activity. DAS28-3 (CRP) <= 3.2 implied low disease activity and >3.2 to 5.1 implied moderate to high disease activity, and DAS28-3 (CRP) <2.6 = remission. ITT analysis set included all subjects who were randomized to the study and received at least one dose of the randomized investigational drug (PF-06651600 or placebo).

    PAAP: Subjects assessed the severity of their arthritis pain by using a 100 mm VAS ranging from 0 (no pain) to 100 (most severe pain), which corresponded to the magnitude of their pain, where higher scores indicated more pain. PGA: Subjects were asked the following question, “Considering all the ways your arthritis affects you, how are you feeling today?” and their response was recorded on a 100 mm VAS ranging from 0 (very well) to 100 (very poor), where higher scores indicated worse health condition. PGAA: Subjects were assessed how their overall arthritis appears at the time of the visit. The evaluation was based on the subject’s disease signs, functional capacity and physical examination, and was independent of the PAAP and PGA assessments. The physician’s response was recorded using a 100 mm VAS ranging from 0 (very well) to 100 (very poor), where higher scores indicated more disease activity.
