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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7293   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To determine whether a cumulative dose of vitamin D3 produces the same effects on the serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D if it is given daily or monthly.
    Protection of trial subjects
    For this study, no particular measure was taken to protect the trial subjects. Both study treatments (D-CURE and VISTA-D3) were already marketed in Belgium and then were well known by the most of participating subjects.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    The study was conducted in one center in Belgium. The recruitement was adequate to meet the target of 60 subjects . After the screening visit, the subjects were randomized in one of the two groups of treatment. The study extended over one period of 75 days followed by a blood sampling 30 days after the last administration of vitamin D3.

    Pre-assignment
