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   44238   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7338   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.

    Pharmacodynamic Endpoints
    1. The following pharmacodynamic biomarkers are considered secondary outcome measures focusing on safety outcomes. In each case, the biomarkers studied reflect safety concerns of glucocorticoids:
    a. Adrenal suppression. First-in-morning serum cortisol levels will be measured. Cortisol measures falling below 3.6 μg/dL (or 100 nM) will be considered to be indicative of the development of adrenal suppression. ACTH stimulation test will be performed at the Screening Visit and at the Week 24 Follow-up Visit (48 ± 3 hours after the final dose of Treatment Period #1 study medication) and at the Week 48 Follow-up Visit (48 ± 3 hours after the final dose of Treatment Period #2 study medication): cortisol levels <18 μg/dL (or 500 nM) 30 or 60 minutes after stimulation with Cosyntropin (250 μg) will be considered to be indicative of adrenal insufficiency.
    b. Bone turnover. Measures of serum osteocalcin are reflective of bone formation, and measures of serum CTX1 are reflective of bone reabsorption. Ratios of osteocalcin and CTX1 predict later clinical safety concerns of osteopenia and bone fragility.
    c. Insulin resistance. Glucocorticoids cause both acute and chronic insulin resistance, with serum elevations of both insulin and glucose. Measures of hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia are accepted measures of insulin resistance.
    d. Immune suppression. Glucocorticoids can cause immunosuppression. Measure of differential lymphocyte percentage can be a biomarker for immune suppression.
    2. Exploratory biomarkers for aspects of safety and efficacy.
