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   44409   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7418   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
    Evaluation of treatment efficacy by comparing the percentage change in bone density and selected parameters of bone quality and bone metabolism from the "Screening" day to the "End of Study" day between two groups of patients (with or without vitamin K2 supplementation)
    Protection of trial subjects
    All subjects provided written informed consent before any study-specific procedures were performed and were informed about the nature, objectives, potential risks and benefits of the trial, as well as their right to withdraw from the trial at any time without giving a reason. The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, ICH-GCP and applicable Slovak and Czech legislation, after approval by the competent authorities and ethics committees. Subject protection was ensured by protocol-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, exclusion of subjects with clinically significant calcium/PTH/vitamin D abnormalities or relevant comorbidities, and regular monitoring of health status, concomitant medication, adverse events and serious adverse events throughout the trial. All study examinations were non-invasive, except for routine blood and urine sampling. Laboratory safety parameters, including serum calcium, phosphate, magnesium, PTH, vitamin D and urinary calcium/phosphate, were monitored according to the protocol. Clinically significant abnormalities were assessed by the investigator. Adverse events were recorded from informed consent onwards and SAEs were reported to the sponsor within 24 hours. Subjects were insured for participation in the clinical trial.
