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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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.

    End point description
    The sPGA is a 5-point scale of an average assessment of all psoriatic lesions based on erythema, scale, and induration. The average of the 3 scales, which is rounded to the nearest whole number, is the final sPGA score. The higher sPGA score denotes to more severe disease activity (0 = Clear; 1 = Almost clear; 2 = Mild; 3 = Moderate; Severe = 4). sPGA 0/1 is the response as a number of participants who experience a sPGA score that determines psoriasis severity as 0 or 1 with at least 2-point improvement from baseline using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method that will be used for participants who discontinue treatment or study prior to week 16 or who have missing week 16 endpoint data for any reason.

    End point description
    PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale; 0 = none to 4 = very severe), weighted by the area of involvement (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. PASI 75 is the response as a number of participants who experience at least a 75% improvement in PASI score as compared with the baseline value using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method that will be used for participants who discontinue treatment or study prior to week 16 or who have missing week 16 endpoint data for any reason.

    End point description
    PSSD with a 24-hour recall period is an 11-item participant-reported instrument that assesses severity of symptoms and participant-observed signs commonly associated in plaque psoriasis. PSSD assesses severity of 5 symptoms (itch, pain, stinging, burning, skin tightness) and 6 participants-observed signs (skin dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding or flaking, redness, bleeding) using 0-10 numerical ratings. The severity of each item is rated on an 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable). PSSD 0 is the response as a number of participants who experience a PSSD symptom score that is derived from the average of the scores and determines psoriasis severity as 0 among participants with a baseline PSSD symptom score >= 1.

    		 The Number of Participants with a static Physician's Global Assessment (sPGA) Score of 0 or 1 in Participants Receiving BMS-986165 Compared to Apremilast at Week 16 (sPGA 0/1) [8]
    End point description
    The sPGA is a 5-point scale of an average assessment of all psoriatic lesions based on erythema, scale, and induration. The average of the 3 scales, which is rounded to the nearest whole number, is the final sPGA score. The higher sPGA score denotes to more severe disease activity (0 = Clear; 1 = Almost clear; 2 = Mild; 3 = Moderate; Severe = 4). sPGA 0/1 is the response as a number of participants who experience a sPGA score that determines psoriasis severity as 0 or 1 with at least 2-point improvement from baseline using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method that will be used for participants who discontinue treatment or study prior to week 16 or who have missing week 16 endpoint data for any reason.

    End point description
    PASI is a measure of the average redness, thickness, and scaliness of psoriatic skin lesions (each graded on a 0 to 4 scale; 0 = none to 4 = very severe), weighted by the area of involvement (head, upper extremities, trunk, and lower extremities). The PASI produces a numeric score that can range from 0 to 72, with higher PASI scores denoting more severe disease activity. PASI 75 is the response as a number of participants who experience at least a 75% improvement in PASI score as compared with the baseline value using the non-responder imputation (NRI) method that will be used for participants who discontinue treatment or study prior to week 24 or who have missing week 24 endpoint data for any reason.
