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.

    To assess local and systemic side effects in HPV vaccinated versus control group over 12 months

    To assess the impact of 9-valent HPV vaccination on new keratinocyte carcinoma development over 12 months
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    Subjects who meet all the following criteria are eligible to participate in this study:

    3) Occurance of local and systemic side effects in HPV vaccinated versus control group

    4) New Keratinocyte carcinoma (KC) anywhere on the skin surface in HPV vaccinated versus control group registered over the course of the 12-month trial, compared to average yearly KC rate (determined by medical record or pathology results) 3 years prior to baseline.
    E.5.2.1Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point
    2) Treatment response in HPV vaccinated versus control group based on:

    I. Evaluated at month 2, 6, 9, 12

    III. Evaluated at month 12

    3) Over the course of the 12-month trial period
