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 44064 clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which 7320 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.

Main objective of the trial

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab in subjects with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who had not adequately responded to one or more standard-of-care treatments.

Protection of trial subjects

This study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with good clinical practices and applicable regulatory requirements. The safety assessments included vital signs, general and targeted physical examination, adverse events (AEs)/serious adverse events (SAEs), study agent administration reaction, concomitant medications, laboratory tests including pregnancy testing, chemistry, coagulation, hematology, and urinalysis, and immunogenicity.
