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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 ).

    End point description
    SVR12 is defined as hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA) level less than the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ; less than 15 IU/mL) 12 weeks after the last actual dose of study drug.

    Relapse was defined as confirmed HCV RNA ≥ 15 IU/mL between the end of treatment and 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug among participants who completed treatment as planned with HCV RNA < 15 IU/mL at the end of treatment and had post-treatment HCV RNA data; participants who had been shown to be re-infected were not considered to have relapsed. The analysis was conducted in all enrolled participants who received at least one dose of study drug, with HCV RNA < 15 IU/mL at the end of treatment, at least one post-treatment HCV RNA value, and who completed the assigned treatment.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    28 Jul 2017
    - Update Protocol Section 5.2.3.3, Prohibited Therapy, Table 1, Prohibited Medications and Supplements, deleting "Any herbal supplements (including milk thistle)" and allowing the investigator to reintroduce medications prohibited by the protocol 14 or more days following the last dose of study drug, instead of 30 days or more as specified in the original protocol. - Alpha fetoprotein for HCC screening was deleted from the protocol, because the protocol-required HCC screening incorporated more sensitive and specific imaging exams (ultrasound, MRI, positron emission tomography scan), making determination of alpha fetoprotein levels unnecessary. HCC screening liver ultrasound was added at PT Week 24 to assess if the subject did or did not develop HCC during the course of the trial. -Based on regulatory authority feedback, the method to calculate the CIs for the primary efficacy endpoints was changed to the Wilson score method if the number of SVR12 non-responders was less than 5 or, otherwise, normal approximation to the binomial distribution.

    Interruptions (globally)
