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   44130   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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    This study will test the primary hypothesis that AUC/MIC based vancomycin dosing, using a model-informed precision dosing calculator, increases the proportion of patients reaching the therapeutic target AUC/MIC (400-600) between [24 to 48] h after start of treatment, when compared to the use of standard-of-care dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    to test hypotheses that
    AUC/MIC based vancomycin dosing, using a MIPD calculator
    - reduces the proportion of patients with (worsening) acute kidney injury during treatment with vancomycin, when compared to the use of SOC dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring;
    - increases the proportion of patients reaching the therapeutic target 24h AUC/MIC (400-600) between [48-72] h after start of treatment, when compared to the use of SOC dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring;
    - reduces the time to clinical cure, when compared to the use of SOC dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring;
    - reduces the ward unit length-of-stay, when compared to the use of SOC dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring;
    - reduces the hospital length-of-stay, when compared to the use of SOC dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring;
    - reduces all cause 30 day mortality, when compared to the use of SOC dosing regimens with therapeutic drug monitoring;
