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.

    - To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and immunogenicity of inebilizumab in patients with MG.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Age ≥ 18 years
    2. Diagnosis of MG with anti-AChR or anti-MuSK antibody.

    5. QMG score of 11 or greater.
    6. Subjects must be on:
    a. Corticosteroids only, with no dose increase within 4 weeks prior to randomization, or
    b. One allowed non-steroidal IST, with continuous use for at least 6 months prior to randomization and no dose increase within 4 months prior to randomization, or
    c. Combination of (1) corticosteroids with no dose increase within 4 weeks prior to randomization and (2) one allowed nonsteroidal IST with continuous use for at least 6 months prior to randomization and no dose increase within 4 months prior to randomization.

    8. Non-sterilized males who are sexually active with a female partner of
    childbearing potential must use a condom from Day 1 for the duration of
    the study and for 3 months after the last dose of IP. Because male
    condom is not a highly effective contraception method, it is strongly
    recommended that female partners of a male study subject also use a
    highly effective method of contraception throughout this period

    c.Prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy with curative intent > 3 years prior to screening and without known recurrence or current treatment
    d.Malignant thymoma resected > 5 years prior to screening with no evidence of active disease and no therapy received over the previous 5 years.
    12.Any of the following laboratory abnormalities at screening (one repeat test may be conducted to confirm results prior to randomization within the same screening period):

    14.Positive test for hepatitis C virus antibody.
    15.Positive HIV test.
    16.History of active or latent tuberculosis (TB), or a positive QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test at screening, unless treatment for tuberculosis was completed per local guidelines. Subjects with latent TB or a positive QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test who are actively on anti-TB treatment can enroll if they have completed at least 1 month of anti-TB treatment and intend to complete the full course of anti-TB treatment. Subjects with an indeterminate QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test result can enroll if a repeat QuantiFERON®-TB Gold is negative or a tuberculin skin test is negative.
