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   44343   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7372   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.

    Total cough counts during day time hours following 7-days of dosing
    End point description
    Coughs were monitored using the VitaloJAK cough monitor. Total cough counts during day-time (10 hours) was calculated from the time of monitor being attached i.e. immediately after dosing on Day 7 to 10 hours past the time of monitoring. Total cough counts were log-transformed prior to analysis. A non-informative prior was used. Analysis was performed using a Bayesian mixed model adjusting for subject-level and period-adjusted baselines, treatment and period. Subject-level baseline is defined as the mean of two period-specific baselines. Period-adjusted baseline is defined as difference between the period-specific baseline and subject-level baseline for each period. Posterior median and 95% credible interval is reported. All Subjects Population included all randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of study treatment. Participants were analyzed according to treatment they actually received. Only those participants with data available at specified data points were analyzed.

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of a study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, associated with liver injury and impaired liver function or any other situations as per medical or scientific judgment.
