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   44338   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7368   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.

    angina within6months of Screening.
    6.DLCO<40% predicted (corrected for hemoglobin). If severe acute
    respiratory syndrome coronavirus2 (SARS-CoV-2) exposure is of clinical
    concern for any subject, consider using a DLCO up to6months before the
    Screening Visit.
    7.Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)by right heart catheterization
    requiring treatment w/more than1oral PAH-approved therapy or any
    parenteral therapy. Treatment is allowed for erectile dysfunction and/or
    Raynaud's phenomenon/digital ulcers.
    8.Corticosteroid use for conditions other than SSc within4weeks prior to
    Screening (topical steroids for dermatological conditions&
    inhaled/intranasal/intra-articular steroids are allowed).
    9.Use of any other non-steroid immunosuppressive agent, small biologic
    molecule, cytotoxic or antifibrotic drug within4weeks prior to Screening,
    including cyclophosphamide, azathioprine (Imuran®) or other
    immunosuppressive or cytotoxic medication. Exceptions include
    mycophenolate mofetil (CellCept®), mycophenolic acid (Myfortic®),
    methotrexate and low-dose prednisone, as follows: use of CellCept ≤
    3g/day, Myfortic ≤2.14g/day, methotrexate ≤20 mg/week and
    prednisone ≤10 mg/day (or equivalent dosing of glucocorticoids) is
    allowed. See Table 9.1 for full details. Subjects taking CellCept, Myfortic
    or methotrexate must have been doing so for≥6months and the dose
    must have been stable for ≥ 4 weeks prior to the Day 1 Visit. Prednisone
    must have been at a stable dose for ≥8 weeks prior to the Day1Visit. It
    is acceptable to be on background low-dose prednisone &anti-malarial
    drug along with CellCept, Myfortic or methotrexate. Rituximab must not
    have been used within 6 months of the Day1Visit.Subjects must not be
    withdrawn from any standard-of-care treatment that is considered
    necessary for the clinical management of the subject in order to fulfill
    the trial eligibility requirements.
    10.Known active bacterial, viral, fungal, mycobacterial or other infection,
    including tuberculosis or atypical mycobacterial disease (fungal
    infections of nail beds are allowed) at the time of randomization.
    11.Use of a United States Food and Drug Administration-approved agent
    for SSc or an investigational agent for any condition within 90days or

    basal/squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or cervical cancer in situ).
    13.Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) or male subjects not
    agreeing to use highly effective method(s)of birth control throughout
    the trial and for 4 weeks after last dose of trial drug. Male subjects must
    refrain from sperm donation and females from egg/ova donation for this
    same time period. Women are considered of childbearing potential if
    they are not postmenopausal and not surgically sterile(documented
    bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy).A
    postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12months without an
    alternative medical cause. A high FSH level in the postmenopausal range
    may be used to confirm a postmenopausal state in women not using
    hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. However,in
    the absence of 12months of amenorrhea, a single FSH measurement is
    insufficient. Fertile male subjects must use a condom throughout the
    trial and for4weeks after the last dose of trial drug.A man is considered
    fertile after puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral
    orchidectomy.
    14. Pregnant or lactating women.

    SAR100842 clinical trial.
    17.Known history of positive test for HIV. HIV testing is optional based
    on Investigator assessment, institutional practices or local guidelines to
    rule out suspected HIV or potential for a positive HIV result. Subject
    consent is required prior to HIV testing.
