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   43881   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7295   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.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of two doses of Tacrosolv (1 drop per eye per day - low dose treatment; 2 drops per eye per day - high dose treatment) in a cross-over design on day 8 of treatment.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was performed in compliance with the ICH E6 Guideline for Good Clinical Practice, the principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and local laws and regulations.

    Total Ocular Symptom Score
    End point description
    The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean 'Total Ocular Symptom Score' (TOSS), calculated as the mean of TOSS measured every 15 minutes during the grass pollen allergen exposure challenge from time-point 0 to 4 hours on day 8. TOSS is defined as the sum of the four individual ocular symptoms:  ocular redness (red eye)  ocular itching (itchy eyes)  watery eye  gritty feeling
