What's new?
Current version:
V2.2
In this minor release the IT Service Desk contact details were updated on the footer. We also took this opportunity to correct discrepancy in the number of records displayed for Art.45 on the EU CTR
V2.1
The register now contains information on paediatric clinical trials completed by 26 January 2007, in respect of products authorised in the EU / EEA, that were submitted to the Agency by pharmaceutical companies in accordance with Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006.
Paediatric clinical trials that are marketing-authorisation-holder-sponsored and involve the use in the paediatric population of a medicinal product covered by an EU marketing authorisation (Article 46 of Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006), are now included even if the investigator sites are outside the EU / EEA.
