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   43845   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    To demonstrate that sedation with isoflurane is non-inferior to propofol in terms of maintaining adequate sedation without rescue sedation.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Serious adverse event collection started at signing of the informed consent, adverse event collection started from first administration of IP and continued until the follow-up assessments. Additional safety assessements were safety laboratory, ECG, physical examination, vital signs, ventilator parameters, CAM-ICU, SOFA, SAPS II, SBT, ICU length of stay, ICU-free days, ventilator time, ventilator free days. In case of inadequate sedation or acute agitation which was not controlled by administration of maximum allowed study sedation level, study sedation bolus doses and co-treatment with analgesic agent was allowed. Patient had the right to withdraw consent to participation at any time and without providing reasons. The study was performed in accordance with ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and are consistent with International Conference of Harmonization (ICH)/Good Clinical Practice (GCP) E6 (R1), European Union (EU) Clinical Trials Directive, and applicable local regulatory requirements. In accordance with the EU Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC), the data will not identify any persons taking part in the study.
    Background therapy
    Apart from study treatments, all subjects in the study was given standard of care treatment in ICU.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    In total 26 sites in Germany and three sites in Slovenia were approved for the study; 21 of the German sites and three of the Slovenian sites enrolled patients into the study. First patient in: 2 July 2017. Last patient completed: 11 February 2020.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A pre-screening was done on all mechanically ventilated patients who entered the ICU. The most common main reason for exclusion for participation was "Not clinically likely to need invasive ventilation and sedation ≥24 hours at randomisation“. Patients that passed the pre-screening were then formally screened.

    End point title
    Percentage of time on adequate sedation depth
    End point description
    Endpoint measures percentage of time with adequate sedation depth without any rescue medication. Adequate sedation depth is defined as having a Richmond agitation sedation scale (RASS-value) between (-1 to -4). The percentage of time on adequate sedation depth was derived as the total amount of time that the patient remained within the prescribed target RASS range (-1 to -4) without rescue medication divided by the amount of time the patient is receiving the study treatment, multiplied by 100%.
