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.

    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To assess the superiority of a 60-day regimen of nifurtimox to historical untreated control at the 12-month follow-up (360 days from end of treatment [EOT]) as seroreduction (defined as a ≥ 20% reduction in optical density [OD] measured by conventional enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay [ELISA]) compared to baseline in subjects ≥8 months to <18 years of age at randomization; or sero-conversion (defined as negative Immunoglobulin G [IgG] concentration) in all subjects
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    - To assess the comparability of a 30-day regimen of nifurtimox to a 60-day regimen of nifurtimox as sero-reduction or sero-conversion at the 12-month follow-up (360 days from EOT)
    - To evaluate the safety/tolerability profile of nifurtimox by laboratory parameters (hematology, blood chemistry, urinalysis), electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring, vital sign measurements (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature), adverse
    event (AE) monitoring, and physical examinations, including neurological examinations
    - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) of nifurtimox in children receiving the drug for treatment of Chagas’ disease (to be described in a separate report)
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
