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   44339   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7369   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.

    • High risk of HF, defined as EITHER
    a) Symptoms (e.g. dyspnea; decreased exercise tolerance; fatigue), or signs of congestion (e.g. pulmonary rales, crackles or crepitations; elevated jugular venous pressure; congestion on chest X-ray), that require treatment (e.g. augmentation or initiation of oral diuretic therapy; i.v. diuretic therapy; i.v. vasoactive agent; mechanical intervention etc.) at any time during the hospitalisation.
    OR
    b) Newly developed LVEF < 45% as measured by echocardiography, ventriculography, cardiac CT, MRI or radionuclide imaging during index hospitalisation.

    - Type 2 diabetes mellitus (prior or new diagnosis)
    - NTproBNP >1,400 pg/mL for patients in sinus rhythm, >2,800 pg/mL if atrial fibrillation; BNP >350 pg/mL for patients in sinus rhythm, >700 pg/mL if atrial fibrillation, measured at any time during hospitalisation
    - Uric acid >7.5 mg/dL (>446 μmol/L), measured at any time during hospitalisation
    - Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure >40 mmHg (non-invasive [usually obtained from clinically indicated post-MI echocardiography] or invasive, at any time during hospitalisation)
    - Patient not revascularized (and no planned revascularization) for the index MI (Includes e.g. patients where no angiography is performed, unsuccessful revascularization attempts, diffuse atherosclerosis not amenable for intervention; but does NOT include if revascularization was not performed due to nonobstructive coronary arteries)
    - 3-vessel coronary artery disease at time of index MI
    - Diagnosis of peripheral artery disease (extracoronary vascular disease, e.g. lower extremity artery disease or carotid artery disease)
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    • Diagnosis of chronic HF prior to index MI
    • Systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg at randomisation
    • Cardiogenic shock or use of i.v. inotropes in last 24 hours before randomisation
    • Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting planned at time of randomisation
    • Current diagnosis of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy

    • Type I diabetes mellitus
    • History of ketoacidosis
    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    • Composite of time to first HHF or all-cause mortality
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    From the day of first randomization until the total number of patients with investigator reported primary endpoint events reaches a target of 532.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    • Total number of HHF or all-cause mortality
    • Total number of non-elective CV hospitalization or all-cause mortality
    • Total number of non-elective all-cause hospitalisation or all-cause mortality
    • Total number of hospitalisation for MI or all-cause mortality
