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   44132   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7324   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.

    9. Le dosi di terapia di base standard concomitante devono rimanere stabili per tutta la durata dello studio, a meno non sia richiesta una riduzione della dose a causa delle tossicità. La terapia di base consentita è definita come non più di un inibitore della colinesterasi ± corticosteroide ± un farmaco immunosoppressore che consente un risparmio degli steroidi (limitato a azatioprina, micofenolato mofetile, metotressato, ciclosporina, tacrolimus o ciclofosfamide). I pazienti devono riceve almeno un farmaco di base consentito.
    10. Le pazienti di sesso femminile in età fertile devono avere un test di gravidanza negativo. I pazienti sia di sesso femminile che maschile devono adottare un regime contraccettivo efficace, affidabile e approvato durante lo studio e fino a 90 giorni o 5 emivite, a seconda di quale periodo è più lungo, dopo l’interruzione del trattamento.
    11. I pazienti devono essere in grado e disposti a rispettare le procedure dello studio.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    Patients meeting any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be randomized to treatment:
    1. History of thymoma or other thymic neoplasms.

    End of SFP clinical parameters (Protocol section 9.6 End of SFP assessment) will be assessed at Week 16 of the SFP. If clinical presentation and parameters do not meet the end of SFP criteria, and are deemed by the principal investigator as study related, the study-related parameters not meeting end-of-study criteria will continue to be assessed in the LFP until they normalize or return to baseline.
    I parametri clinici di fine SFP (Protocollo sezione 9.6 valutazione di fine SFP) saranno valutati alla Settimana 16 del SFP. Se la presentazione clinica e i parametri non soddisfano i criteri di fine SFP e sono ritenuti dallo sperimentatore principale come correlati allo studio, i parametri correlati allo studio che non soddisfano i criteri di fine studio continueranno a essere valutati nel LFP fino a quando non si normalizzano o ritorno al valore basale.
