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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    Notes
    [2] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period.
    Justification: All participants randomised were enrolled in the 12-week study. Of these, 120 participants in each arm were assigned (on first-in-study basis) to continue in the extended 52-week study. This is why the number who started the 52-week treatment period is less than the number who completed the 12-week period.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Dec 2023
    The CSP was amended primarily to comply with EU CTR requirements for drug abuse and misuse handling, SAE reporting, data archiving and breach reporting, and study results submissions to trial registries. The CSP was also revised to remove the planned clinical data lock after 12 weeks of treatment. The study will now be unblinded only once at the end of the study (after the last subject completes the 52-week treatment period). Both the 12-week analysis and the 52-week analysis will be completed after unblinding occurs at the end of the 52-week treatment period.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats
