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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The first primary endpoint is the percentage of change in amplitude of the N2-P2 complex of LEPs at time-point T+60 min post-drug administration vs. the pre-drug time-point, at the non-sensitized arm.
    The second primary endpoint is the percentage of change in amplitude of the N2-P2 complex of PEPs at time-point T+60 min post-drug administration vs. the pre-drug time-point, at the sensitized arm.
    Il primo endpoint primario è la variazione percentuale dell’ampiezza del complesso N2-P2 dei LEPs al T+60 (60 minuti dopo la somministrazione di farmaco) rispetto al time point che precede la somministrazione del farmaco, al braccio non sensitizzato.

    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Endpoints are evaluated 60 min before (=pre-drug time point) and 60 min after (T+60) drug administration.
    Gli endpoints sono valutati 60 minuti prima (=pre-drug time point) e 60 minuti dopo (T+60) la somministrazione di farmaco.
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    1. The percentage of change in amplitude of ongoing theta-band EEG oscillations at time-point T+60 min post-drug administration vs. the predrug time-point.
    2. The percentage of change in the intensity of the sensation elicited by laser stimulation of the non-sensitized forearm at time-point T+60 min post-drug administration vs. the pre-drug time-point.
    3. - The percentage of change in the intensity of the sensation elicited by mechanical pinprick stimulation of the sensitized forearm at timepoint T+60 min post-drug administration vs. the pre-drug time-point.
    1. La variazione percentuale nell’ampiezza delle oscillazioni in banda theta all’EEG al time point T+60 (60 minuti dopo la somministrazione del farmaco) rispetto al time point point che precede la somministrazione del farmaco
    2. La variazione percentuale nell’intensità della sensazione elicitata dalla stimolazione laser nell’avambraccio non sensitizzato al time point T+60 (60 minuti dopo la somministrazione del farmaco) rispetto al time point point che precede la somministrazione del farmaco
    3. La variazione percentuale nell’intensità della sensazione elicitata dalla stimolazione meccanica puntoria dell’avambraccio sensitizzato al time point T+60 (60 minuti dopo la somministrazione del farmaco) rispetto al time point point che precede la somministrazione del farmaco
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Endpoints are evaluated 60 min before (=pre-drug time point) and 60 min after (T+60) drug administration.
    Gli endpoints sono valutati 60 minuti prima (=pre-drug time point) e 60 minuti dopo (T+60) la somministrazione di farmaco.
