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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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.

    or
    ¿of childbearing potential with a negative pregnancy test result at screening and randomization AND agreeing to use a highly effective method of contraception (i.e. with failure rate of less than 1% per year) until 72 hours after the last dose of investigational drug of the entire study.
    Note 1: Based on Clinical Trial Facilitation Group recommendations, highly effective methods of contraception are the following:
    i)intrauterine device (IUD);
    ii)intrauterine hormone-releasing systems (IUS); or;
    iii)combined hormonal contraceptives (i.e. estrogen and progestogen) in oral, intravaginal or transdermal form, with inhibition of ovulation as primary mode of action; or
    iv)progestogen-only hormonal contraceptives in oral, injectable or implantable form, with inhibition of ovulation as primary mode of action; or
    v)absolute and continuous sexual abstinence.
    Note 2: In each case of delayed menstrual period (over one months between menstruations), female participants of child-bearing potential will be strongly recommended a confirmation of absence of pregnancy. This recommendation applies also to women of child-bearing potential with infrequent or irregular menstrual cycles.
    3)A previous documented episode of diverticulitis between 30 and 180 days prior to screening (V1).
    Diverticulitis is defined as the presence of

    plus
    ¿diagnosis confirmation with imaging of diverticulitis at computed tomography (CT), ultrasound (US) or colonoscopy. Note: per scientific guidelines, colonoscopy is not recommended and will not be accepted to diagnose acute diverticulitis recurrence throughout the study, however a colonoscopy diagnosis of acute diverticulitis can be accepted retrospectively for enrolment purposes only.
    4)Patients must be in clinical remission from acute diverticulitis at the screening (V1). Patients with symptomatic uncomplicated diverticular disease (SUDD, i.e. patients with mild abdominal pain or tenderness but no clinically significant inflammation (i.e. no increased number of leukocytes) at screening (V1) can be enrolled.
    5)Patients accepting to provide and legally capable of providing free and informed consent to all procedures included in the protocol.

    ou
    ¿ Mulher em idades férteis com resultado negativo no teste de gravidez na visita de selecção e aleatorização E que concordem em usar um método de contracepção altamente efectivo (isto é, com uma taxa de fracasso por ano inferior a 1%) até 72 horas após a última dose do medicamento do estudo durante todo o período do estudo.
    Nota 1: Com base nas recomendações do Grupo de Facilitação Europeu de Ensaios Clínicos os métodos de contracepção altamente efectivos são:
    i) aparelho intra-uterino (DIU);
    ii) Sistemas de libertação de hormonas intra-uterinas (SIU); ou
    iii) Contraceptivos hormonais combinados (isto é, estrogénio e progestogênio) de forma oral, intravaginal ou transdérmica, com inibição da ovulação como primeiro modo de acção; ou
    iv) Contraceptivos hormonais apenas de progestogênio orais, injectáveis ou implantáveis, com inibição da ovulação como primeiro modo de acção; ou
    v) Abstinência sexual absoluta e contínua.
    Nota 2. Em cada caso de retardamento do período menstrual (mais de um mês entre menstruações), nas participantes femininas em idade fértil será altamente recomendável a confirmação de ausência de gravidez. Esta recomendação também se aplica a mulheres em idade fértil com ciclos menstruais não regulares ou não frequentes.
