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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.

    Clinical improvement is defined as an improvement of two points on a seven-category ordinal scale, or live discharge from the hospital, whichever comes first, as recommended by the WHO R&D Blueprint expert group (3).

    The seven-category ordinal scale consisted of the following categories:
    1. not hospitalized with resumption of normal activities
    2. not hospitalized, but unable to resume normal activities
    3. hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen
    4. hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen
    5. hospitalized, requiring nasal high-flow oxygen therapy, noninvasive mechanical ventilation, or both
    6. hospitalized, requiring ECMO, invasive mechanical ventilation, or both
    7. death.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    28 days
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    1. Primary safety endpoint: major adverse cardiac events defined as the composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke or acute heart failure at day 28.

    2. Key secondary efficacy endpoints:
    - Clinical status as assessed with the seven-category ordinal scale on days 7, 14 and 28.
    - Number of days alive free of oxygen.
    - Number of days alive outside hospital during 28 days after randomization.
    - Number of days alive free of intensive-care unit (ICU) admission or mechanical ventilation (invasive or non-invasive) 28 days after randomization.
    - Number of days alive free of mechanical ventilation (invasive or non-invasive) 28 days after randomization.
    - Number of days alive free of ICU admission 28 days after randomization.
    - Rate of all-cause mortality at day 28.
    - Rate of cardiovascular death at day 28.
    - Number of days alive free of acute kidney injury during hospitalization.
