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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study is to analyse the number of patients with closed fistulas (based on the MRI findings) after 18 months.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    The secondary outcomes parameters will be the number of patients that need a re-intervention due to fistula related complications (abscesses, recurrent or new tract formation), Perianal Disease Activity Index (PDAI score) and number of necessary antibiotics courses during fistula treatment, quality of life (EQ-5D and IBDQ), and costs (KEA and BIA).

    - Written informed consent
    - High tract (intersphincteric, transsphincteric, suprasphincteric) perianal fistula located in the upper
    two-thirds of the external sphincter
    - Fistula with one internal opening (based on MRI imaging). The number of external fistulas does not
    have to be taken into account

    - Multiple internal openings
    - Use of Anti-TNF medication for more than 3 months
    - Previous Anti-TNF medication without any effect on perianal fistulas
