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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.

    - Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase/SGOT ≤3 x ULN in patients without liver involvement and < 5 ULN in patients with liver involvment
    I-5. Performance status: Karnofsky performance status (for patients >12 years of age) or Lansky Play score (for patients ≤12 years of age) ≥ 40%.
    I-6. Able to comply with the scheduled disease management (treatment and follow-up), and with the management of toxicity
    I-7. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum β-HCG pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to initiation of treatment. Sexually active women of childbearing potential must agree to use acceptable and appropriate contraception during the study and for at least 5 months after the last study treatment administration. Sexually active males patients must agree to use condom during the study and for at least 7 months after the last study treatment administration. Acceptable contraception is listed in Appendix 5.
    I-8. Written informed consent from parents/legal representative, patient, and age-appropriate assent before any study-specific screening procedures are conducted according to local, regional or national guidelines.
    I-9. Patient affiliated to a social security regimen or beneficiary of the same according to local requirements.

    E-8. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
    E-9. Positive test for hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBV sAg) or hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV antibody) indicating acute or chronic infection.
