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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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
    Primary endpoint Phase I • The causality of each adverse event and grading of severity according to NCI CTCAE Version 4.03. • Response (stable disease, partial response or complete response) in each case according to the Lugano Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma. Secondary endpoints • Progression-free survival and overall survival at 1 year for all participants. Tertiary endpoints • B-cell depletion and/or intratumoural B cell levels using flow cytometry, in pre- and post-treatment samples. • Measurement of peripheral blood and/or intratumoural immune cell subset levels (CD4 and CD8 T-cell subsets, NK cells, neutrophil, monocyte and macrophage levels) by flow cytometry, in pre- and post-treatment samples. • Measurement of CD27 expression level on CD8 T-cells, effector CD4 T-cells, regulatory CD4 T-cells, NK cells and B-cells in pre-treatment peripheral blood and/or intratumoural material by flow cytometry. • Measurement of PK levels from peripheral blood fro
