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   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 ).

    To provide clarification on the study procedures: - Baseline laboratory safety assessments - Study treatment compliance - PGI-C completion by patients
    22 Sep 2021
    •To reduce the starting dose of NOE-105 from 5 mg to 2.5 mg to further improve tolerability, and specify that the IMP should be taken with the evening meal, since food has been shown to reduce Cmax, in order to improve tolerability • To provide clarity on inclusion and exclusion criteria • To ensure that previous treatments for TS are captured
    06 Dec 2021
    • To update the benefit/risk section of the Study Protocol and to add mitigation measures in case of study disruption due to public health crisis • To provide details on measures that would be put into place at times of study disruption during a civil crisis, natural disaster, or public health crisis (eg, from quarantines and resulting sites closures, regional travel restrictions, considerations if study site personnel or trial patients become infected with SARS-CoV-2) which would prevent patients from visiting study sites.

    • To allow the recruitment of up to 5 adolescent patients with TS and to increase the number of patients from 10 to 18. • To exclude patients with positive urine drug screen for cannabinoids, cocaine, or nonprescribed opiates at screening. • To add PK assessments to inform the modelling of the PK of NOE-105 in adolescent patients
    03 Feb 2023
    • To implement additional safety measures to monitor NOE-105 tolerability, as this was the first time that NOE-105 was to be administered to subjects < 18 years of age: - A staggered recruitment was implemented as a prudent approach - It was added that patients had to remain in the clinic for 2 hours following the first dose of study treatment for safety monitoring - Newly included a DSMB - Provided adjusted instructions on the Investigator support to the patient in case of SIB emergence in adolescents • To update the table of risks
