eu-ctr

is a Data Source.

The EU Clinical Trials Register (EU CTR) and the Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS) are the European Medicines Agency's public registries of interventional clinical trials of medicines in the European Union and European Economic Area. The EU Clinical Trials Register, established under Article 11 of Directive 2001/20/EC, gives public access to protocol and summary results information from the EudraCT database for trials started since May 2004, including paediatric trials run outside the EU/EEA as part of a paediatric investigation plan. CTIS, under Clinical Trials Regulation (EU) No 536/2014, has handled all new trial applications since 31 January 2023 and became the single entry point for ongoing trials after the transition period ended in January 2025; its public portal publishes trial information, documents and results. The legacy register no longer accepts new trials but remains online as the source for trials authorised under the Directive.

EU Clinical Trials Register and CTIS

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) operates two public registries of interventional clinical trials of medicines in the EU/EEA. The EU Clinical Trials Register publishes protocol and summary results information from the EudraCT database for trials authorised under the Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) since 2004. The Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS) replaced it for trials under the Clinical Trials Regulation (EU) No 536/2014: all new applications have gone through CTIS since 31 January 2023, and ongoing Directive trials had to transition to CTIS by January 2025.

Note that “EU CTR” is also a common abbreviation for the Clinical Trials Regulation itself.
