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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    •To assess and compare the safety and tolerability of a single dose (booster) of rMenB+OMV NZ administered to follow-on subjects approximately 4 to 7.5 years after a 2 dose primary series, with that of two doses of rMenB+OMV NZ administered to naïve subjects according to a 0, 1-month schedule. •To assess serum bactericidal activity at approximately 4 to 7.5 years following a 2 dose primary series (persistence) compared to serum bactericidal activity at baseline in vaccination-naïve subjects.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The subjects were observed closely for at least 30 minutes following the administration of vaccine(s), with appropriate medical treatment readily available in case of a rare anaphylactic reaction.

    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The results in this study were tabulated by age group and study period. Hence for each related endpoint, they are presented for only the respective groups in the baseline period, while the results for multiple endpoints account for all baseline groups.
    [2] - The end point is not reporting statistics for all the arms in the baseline period. It is expected all the baseline period arms will be reported on when providing values for an end point on the baseline period.
    Justification: The results in this study were tabulated by age group and study period. Hence for each related endpoint, they are presented for only the respective groups in the baseline period, while the results for multiple endpoints account for all baseline groups.
