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   43857   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    This study evaluated the immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability of VARIVAX® (Varicella Virus Vaccine Live) manufactured with a new passage extension (PE34) process compared with the VARIVAX® 2016 commercial process. The primary hypotheses being tested were that antibody response rate and mean antibody titer induced at 6 weeks after a single vaccination by VARIVAX® PE34 Process are non-inferior to those induced by VARIVAX® 2016 commercial process, and that antibody response rate induced by VARIVAX® PE34 Process is acceptable.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research.

    Percentage of Participants with One or More Adverse Events
    End point description
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition that is temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor’s product, is also an AE. The percentage of participants with one or more adverse events for Day 1 through Day 42 after vaccination 1 and Day 1 through Day 42 after vaccination 2 was reported.

    Percentage of Participants with One or More Unsolicited Injection-Site Adverse Events after Vaccination 1 (Incidence > 0%)
    End point description
    The percentage of participants with unsolicited injection-site adverse events (or AEs not superficially listed on eVRC) for Day 1 through Day 42 after vaccination 1 was assessed. A specific adverse event was reported only if its incidence was >0% in one or more vaccination groups after rounding. The analysis population consisted of all randomized/allocated participants who received at least 1 vaccination of study treatment with data at the time of assessment.
