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   43871   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7290   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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral Islatravir (ISL) once monthly (QM) as Preexposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) in cisgender men who have sex with men and transgender women who have sex with men and who are at high risk of HIV-1 infection with 48 or 96 weeks of treatment and a follow-up of ≥42 days. Due to decreased lymphocyte and CD4+ T-cell counts across the ISL program, blinded dosing was halted on 10-Dec-2021, with no further enrollment. Thus, no participants <18 years of age were randomized. Assessments conducted prior to then are designated as Part 1. In Part 2, participants from Part 1 were switched to open-label PrEP therapy with emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil (FTC/TDF) or emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (FTC/TAF) while continuing in the study. In Part 3, the study was unblinded to original randomized intervention group, and participants were permitted to continue receiving unblinded FTC/TDF or FTC/TAF until the end of the study.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practice standards and applicable country and/or local statutes and regulations regarding ethical committee review, informed consent, and the protection of human subjects participating in biomedical research.
