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

    * Assess pain control with botulinum toxin.
    * Determine what type of complications may appear with botulinum toxin treatment and estimate their proportion.
    * Establish prognostic factors in the failure of treatment of chronic anal fissure with botulinum toxin.
    * Calculate the risk profiles for the emergence of complications.
    * Estimate the median time in the emergence of failure.
    * Know the percentage of patients in whom a surgical treatment could be avoided, through the use of this therapy.
    * Assess quality of life before and after using the toxin.

    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    * Patients seen in the clinical Surgery Consultation with diagnosis of chronic anal fissure.
    * Patients older than 18 years of age with a diagnostic of fissure of more than two months of evolution who have not responded to previous anal fissure medical treatments. Medical treatment would consist of hygienic dietary measures and systemic and local analgesic treatment with ointments (Annex 1). These ointments will be either calcium antagonists (Diltiazem 2%) or nitrates (Rectogesic 0.4%), whose main function is to relax the smooth muscle of the anus. This treatment should be prescribed for 6-8 weeks before assessing whether or not there has been healing or improvement
    *Pacientes que acudan a la Consulta de Cirugía con diagnóstico de fisura anal crónica.
    * Pacientes mayores de 18 años de edad con clínica de fisura de más de dos meses de evolución que no han respondido a tratamientos médicos de fisura anal previos. El tratamiento médico consistiría en medidas higiénico dietéticas y tratamiento analgésico sistémico y local con pomadas (Anexo 1). Estas pomadas serán bien calcio antagonistas (Diltiazem 2%) o nitratos (Rectogesic 0.4%), ambas con función relajante del músculo liso del ano por distintas vías de actuación. Este tratamiento debe prescribirse durante 6-8 semanas antes de valorar si se ha producido o no curación o mejoría.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    *Minors
    *Patients with diagnosis of chronic anal fissure that it isn’t idiopathic.
    * Patients who have not previously received medical treatment for the anal fissure.
    * Patients with contraindication to the use of Botulinum Toxin type A: Myasthenia gravis, Eaton-Lambert syndrome, pregnant women, acelticoline deficiency.
    *Menores de edad.
    *Pacientes con diagnóstico de fisura anal crónica que no sea idiopática.
    *Pacientes que no hayan recibido previamente tratamiento médico para la fisura anal.
    *Pacientes con contraindicación para el uso de la Toxina botulínica tipo A: Miastenia gravis, síndrome Eaton-Lambert, embarazadas, déficit de acelticolina.
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    Recovery will be defined, when the fissure is healed and without symptoms; Improvement, when the fissure endures without symptons; and failure when both fissure and symptoms endure. In the last group, patients who required surgical management, will be included.
    Se definirá curación, cuando la fisura esté cicatrizada y sin clínica; mejoría, cuando la fisura persista en ausencia de síntomas; y fracaso cuando persistan la fisura y los síntomas. En este último grupo, se incluirá a los pacientes que por su sintomatología requirieron manejo quirúrgico.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    2 years
    2 años
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Efficacy: We will evaluate the pain with EVA scale, exhaust gases and feces and physical examination to see if the lession has dissapeared. Also, we will do a control manometry and ecography at 1 and 3 months after the treatment. Patients will be followed up at the clinical surgery consultation for two years. Recurrence of chronic anal fissure after the follow-up period will be defined as treatment failure.
    Eficacia: Se evaluarán a la semana el dolor mediante la escala EVA, escape de gases y heces y la exploración física objetivando si hay desaparición de la lesión, así como también al mes y tres meses donde se incluirá además la realización de manometría control y ecografía. Se efectuará seguimiento a los pacientes en la Consulta de Cirugía durante dos años para comprobar recurrencia o no del proceso. Se definirá como fracaso al tratamiento la recidiva de la fisura anal crónica tras el periodo de seguimiento.
