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   44363   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7387   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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Main study: To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of dupilumab in pediatric participants with asthma who participated in a previous dupilumab asthma clinical study EFC14153 (2016-001607-23). Japan sub-study: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in children 6 to <12 years of age with uncontrolled persistent asthma in the Japan sub-study.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted by investigators experienced in the treatment of pediatric participants. The parent(s) or guardian(s) as well as the children were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time. In addition to the consent form for the parent(s)/guardian(s), an assent form in child-appropriate language was provided and explained to the child. Repeated invasive procedures were minimized. The number of blood samples as well as the amount of blood drawn were adjusted according to age and weight. A topical anesthesia may have been used to minimize distress and discomfort.

    End point description
    Blood samples were collected at specified timepoints to assess percent change from baseline in total IgE in serum. Baseline (main study): the original baseline of parent study EFC14153. Baseline (sub-study): last available measurement prior to first study treatment dose if participant was treated, or last available value up to enrollment if participant was not exposed to study treatment in current study. Main study: safety population included all participants exposed to at least 1 dose or part of a dose of the study treatment during current study regardless of the amount of treatment administered. Sub-study: safety population included all enrolled participants who took at least 1 dose of study treatment in the current study, regardless of the amount of treatment administered. Only participants with data collected are reported.

    Japan Sub-study: Change From Baseline in Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) at Week 64 [10]
    End point description
    FeNO was analyzed using a NIOX instrument or similar analyzer using a flow rate of 50 milliliter per second. FeNO assessment was conducted prior to spirometry and following a fast of ≥1 hour. Baseline was defined as the last available measurement prior to first study treatment dose if participant was treated, or last available value up to enrollment if participant was not exposed to study treatment in the current study. Safety population included all enrolled participants who took at least 1 dose of study treatment in the current study, regardless of the amount of treatment administered. Only participants with data collected are reported.
