EU Clinical Trials Register: useless? [Regulatives / Guidelines]
Hi Beholder,
Nope. In order to obtain an EudraCT number the sponsor has to create an account / register at the European Clinical Trials Database. The EudraCT number and a completed “Request for Authorisation of a Clinical Trial on a Medicinal Product for Human Use to the Competent Authorities and for Opinion of the Ethics Committees in the Community” is required when submitting the protocol to the EMA (CP) or the chosen reference member state (DCP). From the XML a PDF can be created. What is bizarre: The PDF cannot be electronically signed (a signature is required in Section I.3.2). Hence, one has to print it out, sign it, scan the page, …
Once the study is completed, results have to be provided by the same wacky web-interface.
BTW, interesting the EudraCT Statistics as of December 2017 (renumbered):
#3: 12.8% of studies were inspected? Wow! Given that some studies with an assigned EudraCT number were never performed, the percentage is higher.
#4: Zero?!
❝ Saying XML-files, do you mean the special XML "cover" which is used for EU submission (registration dossier)? If so than do you use special software to convert simple pdf to "magic" XML?

BTW, interesting the EudraCT Statistics as of December 2017 (renumbered):
- Number of Clinical Trials recorded in the EudraCT Database: 52,586
- Total number of Clinical Trial Applications recorded by Member State, Competent Authorities in the EudraCT Database: 117,198
- Total number of Clinical Trial Site Inspections: 6,734
- Total number of EudraCT Numbers requested in response to the question: “Is it anticipated that this EudraCT Number will be used for a Clinical Trial conducted in a third country (outside of the EU/EEA)?”: 0
#3: 12.8% of studies were inspected? Wow! Given that some studies with an assigned EudraCT number were never performed, the percentage is higher.
#4: Zero?!
