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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 ).

    Number of Subjects With Clinical Remission Based on 2-item Patient-reported Outcome (PRO) at Week 16 [1]
    End point description
    Clinical remission was defined by 2-item PRO subs-cores of average worst daily abdominal pain less than or equal to (<=) 3 (based on 11 point numerical rating scale [NRS] ranging from 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst imaginable pain]); and average daily stool frequency <=2 of type 6/7 (very soft stools/liquid stools) as per the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) over the 7 most recent days. BSFS ranges from 1 (separate hard lumps, hard to pass), 2 (sausage-shaped, but lumpy), 3 (like a sausage but with cracks on the surface), 4 (like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft), 5 (soft blobs with clear-cut edges), 6 (fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool), 7 (watery, no solid pieces, entirely liquid). Subjects with missing data at Week 16 or discontinuation before Week 16 were considered failures. Number of subjects with clinical remission were reported. Full analysis set (FAS) consisted of all randomized subjects who had received at least 1 dose of study treatment.

    Number of Subjects With Clinical Response as Measured by CDAI-100 at Week 16
    End point description
    Clinical response is measured by at least a 100-point reduction in the CDAI from baseline (CDAI-100 response). CDAI assesses CD based on clinical signs/symptoms such as number of liquid stools, intensity of abdominal pain, general well-being (subjective), and presence of complications, use of antidiarrheal, presence of abdominal mass, physical examination and hematocrit (objective). CDAI score is equal to sum of weighted scores for subjective and objective items which range from 0-149 points: asymptomatic remission, 150-220 points: mild to moderate active CD, 221-450 points: moderate to severe active CD, >451 points: severely active to fulminant disease. Higher score indicating more severity. Study terminated early for reasons unrelated to safety. Hence, for this endpoint, the planned data collection and analysis was not performed.

    Number of Subjects With Clinical Response as Measured by CDAI-70 at Week 16
    End point description
    Clinical response is measured by at least a 70-point reduction in the CDAI from baseline (CDAI-70 response). CDAI assesses CD based on clinical signs/symptoms such as number of liquid stools, intensity of abdominal pain, general well-being (subjective), and presence of complications, use of antidiarrheal, presence of abdominal mass, physical examination and hematocrit (objective). CDAI score is equal to sum of weighted scores for subjective and objective items which range from 0-149 points: asymptomatic remission, 150-220 points: mild to moderate active CD, 221-450 points: moderate to severe active CD, >451 points: severely active to fulminant disease. Higher score indicating more severity. Study terminated early for reasons unrelated to safety. Hence, for this endpoint, the planned data collection and analysis was not performed.

    Number of Subjects With Clinical Remission Over Time
    End point description
    Clinical remission is defined by 2-item PRO subs-cores of average worst daily abdominal pain (based on 11 point NRS ranging from 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst imaginable pain]); and average daily stool frequency of type 6/7 (very soft stools/liquid stools) as per BSFS over the 7 most recent days. BSFS ranges from 1 (separate hard lumps, hard to pass), 2 (sausage-shaped, but lumpy), 3 (like a sausage but with cracks on the surface), 4 (like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft), 5 (soft blobs with clear-cut edges), 6 (fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool), 7 (watery, no solid pieces, entirely liquid). Study terminated early for reasons unrelated to safety. Hence, for this endpoint, the planned data collection and analysis was not performed.

    Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) Total (Absolute) Score at Weeks 8, 12 and 16
    End point description
    The IBDQ is a psychometrically validated PRO instrument for measuring the disease-specific health-related quality of life (HRQL) in subjects with IBD, including CD. The IBDQ consists of 32 items, which are grouped into 4 domains and scored as: bowel function (10 to 70), systemic symptoms (5 to 35), emotional status (12 to 84), and social function (5 to 35). The total IBDQ score ranges from 32 to 224. For the total score and each domain, a higher score indicates better HRQL. A score of at least 170 corresponds to clinical remission and an increase of at least 16 points is considered to indicate a clinically meaningful improvement. Study terminated early for reasons unrelated to safety. Hence, for this endpoint, the planned data collection and analysis was not performed.
