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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To assess the effect of benralizumab on airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR), after 3 months of treatment, measured by mannitol challenge as the provocative dose causing a 10% fall in forced expratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) (PD10 Mannitol), from post-run-in baseline in severe eosinophilic asthma.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    • To assess the effect of benralizumab on AHR, after 3 months of treatment, measured by Mannitol RDR, from post run-in baseline in severe eosinophilic asthma
    • To assess changes in type 2 biomarkers: FeNO, blood eosinophils, ECP and EDN after 3 months of treatment with benralizumab
    • To assess the effect of benralizumab on pulmonary function tests: spirometry and impulse oscillometry
    • To assess changes in patient reported outcomes: ACQ6; domiciliary PEF, symptoms and reliever use after 3 months of treatment with benralizumab
    • To assess what happens to AHR, type 2 biomarkers, pulmonary function tests and patient reported outcomes after stopping benralizumab for three months
