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   44347   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7375   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
    The primary objective is to assess the overall response rate (ORR) at 6 months with lenalidomide-venetoclax and rituximab, in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma, by use of an MRD driven strategy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted according to the guidelines for Good Clinical Practice, issued by The International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH). The protocol was approved by the local, regional or national Ethical Review Boards according to the existing national and local regulatory requirements. The study was conducted in agreement with the declaration of Helsinki and the laws and the regulations of the respective countries.
