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   44351   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7378   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.

    - To compare the effect of Exenatide to placebo on motor-symptom progression.
    - To compare the effect of Exenatide to placebo on the non-motor symptom progression.
    - To measure the safety of Exenatide in patients with PD.
    - To evaluate pharmacokinetic properties of Exenatide.
    - Frequency of adverse events (open-label extension part one).
    - To evaluate changes in motor, and non-motor symptoms
    activities of daily living and complications by dopaminergic treatment (open-label extension part one and two ).
