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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 is to assess the safety and tolerability of octaplas™ in the pediatric patients undergoing therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) by monitoring ADRs, TEs, TEEs, and by measuring safety laboratory parameters.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial was conducted in accordance to the principles of GCP, ensuring that the rights, safety and well-being of patients are protected and in consistency with the Declaration of Helsinki. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully defined in order to protect subjects from contraindications, interactions with other medication and risk factors associated with the investigational medicinal product. Throughout the study safety was assessed, such as occurrence of SAEs, ADRs, TEs, TEEs, and safety labs.

    Blood samples compare levels before each TPE (therapeutic plasma exchange) and after each TPE. Pre-TPE is within 24 hours before TPE start; Post-TPE is 30 minutes to 3 hours after TPE end. Differences in number of subjects analyzed for each TPE due to not all patients receiving multiple blood draws/TPEs.
