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   44346   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7374   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.

    End point title
    Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
    End point description
    Treatment-emergence was defined as those adverse events (AEs) that occurred after dosing and those existing AEs that worsened during the study. An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial subject, temporally associated with the use of trial intervention, whether or not considered related to the trial intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the trial intervention. SAF included all subjects who were enrolled and received at least 1 dose of IMP.

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    14 Oct 2022

    12 Dec 2022
    Protocol V.3.0 -Added 0.6 mg Dasiglucagon for children with T1D in the age range >=2 and <6 years and of 0.3 mg Dasiglucagon for children with T1D below 2 years of age. -Updated trial population and references. -Blood volume updated to reflect changes in blood volume needed for the individual samples and for children over a range of body weights. - Added texts to allow sharing of relevant medical records which might be examined by Clinical Quality Assurance auditors or other authorized personnel appointed by the sponsor, including relevant partners, by appropriate IRB/IEC members, and by inspectors from regulatory authorities.
    09 Mar 2023
    Protocol V.4.0: -Updated texts to support approval of the 0.3 mg dose and expanded indication down to birth. -Added new inclusion criteria for body weight. -Added texts to allow for some flexibility for the sites to select a solution that is the least stressful for the children. -Blood volumes (table 6-3) updated to ensure more flexibility in case of potential challenges with supply of the tubes with the desired volume.
    01 Nov 2023
    Protocol V.5.0: -Updated texts to broaden the recruitment for the study.
    12 Jul 2024
