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   43861   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    Number of Subjects With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [1]
    End point description
    AE: any untoward medical occurrence in a subject during the study; event does not necessarily have a causal relationship with treatment. This includes any newly occurring event/previous condition that has increased in severity/frequency after informed consent form is signed. AE includes serious as well as non-serious AEs. SAE (subset of AE): medical event, which falls into any of the following categories, regardless of its relationship to study drug: death, life threatening adverse experience, inpatient hospitalization/prolongation of hospitalization, persistent/significant disability or incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical event. TEAEs: AEs that started/ worsened on/after the start of study drug through the Safety Follow up Visit (4 weeks after the last dose of study drug). Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification. Safety Set: all subjects who were exposed to any amount of study drug.

    End point description
    FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in one second, after full inspiration. Hankinson and Wang standards were used to calculate percent predicted FEV1 (for age, gender, and height). The Hankinson standard was used for male subjects 18 years and older and female subjects 16 years and older. The Wang standard was used for male subjects aged 12 to 17 years and for female subjects aged 12 to 15 years. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification. Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all subjects who were enrolled and administered any amount of study drug. Here, "Number of Subjects Analyzed" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint.

    The CFQ-R is a validated subject-reported outcome measuring health-related quality of life for subjects with cystic fibrosis. Respiratory domain assessed respiratory symptoms (for example, coughing, congestion, wheezing), the scaled score range: 0-100; higher scores indicating fewer symptoms and better health-related quality of life. Results were reported as planned, as a combined single LUM/IVA arm irrespective of permitted dose modification. FAS included all subjects who were enrolled and administered any amount of study drug.
