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.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    		 This study was performed at 111 sites in 6 countries (Bulgaria, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, the United Kingdom and the United States) between 28 October 2019 and 24 August 2021. Of the 4,167 participants screened for the study, 1,027 participants with erosive esophagitis (EE) were randomized in the Healing Phase.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    		 Participants were randomized to receive vonoprazan 20 mg once per day (QD) or lansoprazole 30 mg QD using a 1:1 ratio in the Healing Phase. Participants with endoscopic healing of EE at 2 or 8 weeks were re-randomized to receive vonoprazan 10 mg QD, vonoprazan 20 mg QD, or lansoprazole 15 mg QD using a 1:1:1 ratio in the Maintenance Phase.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: Only participants with endoscopic healing of EE at 2 or 8 weeks were re-randomized to receive vonoprazan 10 mg QD, vonoprazan 20 mg QD, or lansoprazole 15 mg QD in the Maintenance Phase.

    Sustained resolution was defined as at least 7 consecutive days with no daytime or night time heartburn as assessed by the daily diary. A participant was considered to have sustained resolution of heartburn by Day 3 if the first day of the 7 consecutive days without symptoms was on Days 1, 2, or 3.
