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   43855   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate that the intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin at paralytic doses coupled with a local injection of corticosteroids is more effective (i) than the injection of corticosteroids alone and (ii) than the injection of botulinum toxin alone, to reduce pain at 6 months, in patients with lateral epicondylitis.
    Démontrer que l'injection intramusculaire de toxine botulique à des doses paralysantes couplée à une injection locale de corticoïde est plus efficace (i) que l'injection de corticoïde seule et (ii) que l'injection de toxine seule pour réduire la douleur à 6 mois chez les patients atteints d'une épicondylite latérale.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - To show an improvement in the quality of life for the patients and an early resumption of sporting or professional activity.
    - To evaluate the tolerance of the treatment by measuring the gripping force and collecting the adverse effects that may be encountered.
    - Montrer l'amélioration de la qualité de vie des patients et un effet positif sur le retour à l'activité professionnelle ou sportive ;
