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.

    human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV)
    E.1.1.1Medical condition in easily understood language
    human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV)
    E.1.1.2Therapeutic area Diseases [C] - Virus Diseases [C02]
    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective is to demonstrate non inferiority at W48 of the 2DR DTG/3TC (Dovato) regimen compared to BIC/TAF/FTC (Biktarvy) in HIV-1 infected individuals in terms of the amount of intact replication-competent HIV-1 sequences with a non-inferiority margin of 12% quantified by the fraction intact HIV viral sequences quantified by an intact proviral DNA assay, present in blood CD4 cells.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1) Quantification of immune activation markers in both arms, will be explored and should not differ more than 20%.

    2) To assess impact of the DTG/3TC vs BIC/FTC/TAF on metabolic health; evolutions of these outcomes will be compared among the DTG/3TC vs BIC/FTC/TAF group.

    3) To assess the impact of switching through a patient questionnaire.

    4) To demonstrate non inferiority at W144 and W240 of the 2DR DTG/3TC vs BIC/TAF/FTC in terms of the amount of intact replication-competent HIV-1 sequences with a non-inferiority margin of 12% quantified by the fraction intact HIV viral sequences quantified by an intact proviral DNA assay, present in blood CD4 cells.

    5) In all participants or in a subgroup indientified as high and very high C-V risk group will be proposed a duplex carotis at W240 to assess the intima media tickness as a surrogate marker for generalised atherosclerosis and risk of cardio-vascular disease.
