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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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.

    MedDRA Classification
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    One of the key elements to improve allogeneic HCT is the administration of optimized conditioning treatment including immunosuppressive drugs to facilitate engraftment, prevent GVHD and induce tolerance of donor immune cells.
    Specifically the goal of this trial is:
    1. to investigate the impact of PTCY versus ATG-Grafalon as part of a conditioning treatment for alloHCT on overall survival.
    2. to investigate the potential of PTCY versus ATG-Grafalon to allow for disease-free and immunosuppression-free survival one year after alloHCT.
    Information on the investigational drugs provided by these two endpoints will enable the scientific community a comprehensive assessment of the two approaches for alloHCT.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    Data collected within this trial will further allow:
    − to assess the risk of acute and chronic GVHD, relapse and NRM after alloHCT per treatment arm
    − to evaluate risk factors for acute and chronic GVHD, relapse, and NRM.
    − to test for interactions between the presence or absence of (specific) HLA mismatches and major alloHCT outcomes.
    − to test for interactions between sex mismatches and major alloHCT outcomes.
    − to describe organ-specific clinical patterns of GVHD depending on the study arm.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
