Improved Search for Clinical Trials in CTIS

New features were introduced on the CTIS public portal on September 20, 2024, following a thorough consultation with stakeholders, including patients and healthcare professionals.

The enhanced portal aims to benefit the public by making searching for publicly available information on clinical trials in the EU and EEA easier. 

In the improved portal, users can now:

  • perform an advanced search, including searching per recruitment status in a specific country;
  • download the full list of search results for a performed search; 
  • download all published information and documents for a specific clinical trial;
  • subscribe to a certain search via RSS feed.

Several changes to the interface have also been implemented to improve the overall user experience. The search results list is now translated in every European language and displays the most important information, including the recruitment status and locations for each trial. In addition, every trial page now displays:

  • a dedicated section on ‘Locations and contact points’, for anyone who wishes to get in touch with the healthcare professionals of the trial locations or with the sponsor;
  • more extensive information in the ‘Summary’ page, such as the main objective of the trial and its estimated duration;
  • a dedicated section with all available trial documents;
  • a section with the ‘Full trial information’ which is easier to consult;
  • documents with layperson explanations of the fields in each section.
