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   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   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.

    E.5 End points
    E.5.1Primary end point(s)
    The sensory acceptability of the formulation will be evaluated taking into account the shape, taste and color of the different hydrocortisone magisterial formulas independently for each attribute. The chewable formulation of hydrocortisone will be changed color and flavor every 15 days in order to select the best presentation of the compounding formulation and improve adherence to the prescribed treatment. Acceptability will be measured through the hedonic facial scale. This type of test has been carried out with children, who have the possibility of evaluating whether or not they like the product without considering language, social condition, or geographical or cultural background.

    Tolerability will be determined by asking on a five-point hedonic facil scale: if the patient refuses the medication, spits the medication, and if they are willing to take the medication again in the future.
    La aceptabilidad sensorial de la formulación será evaluada teniendo en cuenta, la forma, el sabor y el color de las diferentes fórmulas magistrales de hidrocortisona de forma independiente para cada atributo. A la formulación masticable de hidrocortisona se le cambiará el color y sabor cada 15 días con el fin de seleccionar la mejor presentación de la fórmula magistral y mejorar la adherencia al tratamiento prescrito. La aceptabilidad se medirá a través de la escala facial hedónica. Este tipo de pruebas se han llevado a cabo con niños, los cuales tienen la posibilidad de evaluar si les gusta o no el producto sin considerar el lenguaje, condición social ni antecedentes geográficos o culturales.

    La tolerabilidad se determinará preguntando en una escala de cinco puntos: si el paciente rechaza la medicación, escupe la medicación, y si tiene voluntad de volver a tomar la medicación en un futuro.
    E.5.1.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Monthly: In each medical visits
    Mensualmente: En cada una de las visitas medicas
    E.5.2Secondary end point(s)
    Adherence will be estimated with the medication count and the pharmacy dispensing record.
    La adherencia se estimará con el recuento de la medicación y el registro de dispensación de farmacia.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    Monthly: In each of the pharmacy visits to collect the medication.
    Mensualmente: En cada una de las visitas a farmacia para recoger la medicación.
