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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To determine if the humoral immune response of a fractional compared to a full
    dose COVID‐19 vaccination is non‐inferior in paediatric subjects who are immunologically primed
    either by a first vaccine dose, or by natural infection.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1. To assess the safety and reactogenicity profile of reduced COVID‐19 vaccine regimens against
    SARS‐CoV‐2 in paediatric subjects with and without a history of prior SARS‐CoV‐2 infection,
    compared to routine full dose regimens.
    2. To assess the medium (6 months) and long term (12 month) humoral immune response of
    each of the COVID‐19 vaccine dosing regimens against wild‐type SARS‐CoV‐2 in paediatric
    subjects with and without a history of prior SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
    3. To assess the short (28 days), medium and long term humoral immune response of each of
    the COVID‐19 vaccine dosing regimens against SARS‐CoV‐2 variants of concern in paediatric
    subjects with and without a history of prior SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. 12 or 13 years of age on day of signing the informed consent form.
    2. In good health or stable clinical condition.
    3. Has reviewed the subject information and signed the informed consent form.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Has previously received any investigational or licensed COVID‐19 vaccine.
    2. Has known congenital or acquired immune disorder or immunodeficiency that may interfere
    with vaccine response e.g. known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) with
    low CD4 count or other immunosuppression at time of signing informed consent form.
    3. Has a history of autoimmune disease or an active autoimmune disease requiring therapeutic
    intervention (including systemic glucocorticoids), or findings that may have a significant
    effect on the target endpoints and which may therefore mask or inhibit the therapeutic
    effect under investigation as judged by the investigator.
    4. Bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding that would, in the opinion
    of the investigator, contraindicate intramuscular injection.
    5. History of severe adverse reaction associated with a vaccine and/or severe allergic reaction
    (eg, anaphylaxis) to any component of the study intervention(s).
    6. Receipt of medications intended to prevent COVID‐19.
    7. Uses drugs with significant interaction with the investigational product or has any
    contraindications as per the Summary of Product Characteristics.
    8. Other medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk
    of study participation or, in the investigator’s judgment, make the participant inappropriate
    for the study.
    9. Has any kind of dependency on the principal investigator or member of the study team or is
    employed by the sponsor or principal investigator.
    10. Is unable to report solicited adverse events.
    E.5 End points
