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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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
    To investigate whether treatment with an iron- or calcium-containing phosphate binder can affect differently the results from 18F-NaF PET/CT, bALP, osteocalcin, FGF23 og OPG/RANKL ratio. Differences in the stiffness of blood vessel assessed with applanation tonometry. Finally, we investigate changes in calcium score (TBR) and iron status

    Treatment with SO or CC aimed to reduce p-phospate to < 1.8 mmol/L (CC up to 3600 mg/day; SO up to 3000 mg/day). However, if dose escalation did not reduce phosphate levels < 1.8 mmol/L, and the phosphate levels remained stable, further dose escalations were not performed. Treatment periods were 8 weeks however, if phosphorus level was not stable, the treatment was continued, though maximum 15 weeks. The treatment periods were separated by at minimum of a 2-week washout period. A run-in period of 2 weeks was applied if the patient already was treated with a phosphate binder.

    Notes
    [1] - Period 1 is not the baseline period. It is expected that period 1 will be the baseline period.
    Justification: Resultaterne fra de deltager der ikke har gennemført begge behandlingsperioder er ikke analyseret og derfor er baseline mest repræsentativt uden disse for at se om grupperne er ens
