There are about 13306 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Belgium. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Overall in this project, the primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy of virtual reality exposure (VRE) for adolescents with elevated social anxiety using a three-arm randomized controlled trial: (1) virtual reality exposure (VRE); (2) in vivo exposure (IVE); and (3) waitlist (WL) - the control condition. It is predicted that both VRE and IVE will be more successful in decreasing social anxiety symptoms than the WL condition at post-assessment and that VRE will be as effective as in vivo in reducing social anxiety symptoms. Furthermore, it is expected that there will be no difference between the two active conditions in the long term (at 3- months & 6-months follow up). Similar results are expected in the secondary outcome measures, intended to capture the participants' general well-being. Moreover, the study has the following (secondary) objectives: - To elucidate potential working mechanisms of VRE and IVE - To identify predictors of adolescents' response to VRE and IVE - To assess to what extent adolescents accept VRE and IVE and how they experience it
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) affects up to 3% of the general population and a small subset of patients is at risk for ventricular arrhythmias. This subgroup is referred to as AMVP (arrhythmic MVP) and was recently defined using the following criteria: (1) Presence of MVP), (2) Ventricular arrhythmia that is either frequent (≥5% total premature ventricular contraction (PVC) burden on Holter) or complex (non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (nsVT), ventricular tachycardia (VT), or ventricular fibrillation (VF)), and (3) The absence of any other well-defined arrhythmic substrate. Currently, diagnosis is often based on repeated 24-hour Holter monitoring. However, the ventricular arrhythmia burden varies from day-to-day and long-term rhythm monitoring has shown in other pathologies to increase the diagnostic yield with up to 200% (from 22.5% on 24h to 75.3% on 14 days). This pilot study aims to study the diagnostic yield of long-term rhythm monitoring in patients with MVP as well as the day-to-day variability of ventricular arrhythmias to facilitate power calculation for a future large-scale prospective registry.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of performing psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy in patients hospitalized for treatment-resistant depression.
The aim of the current project is twofold, namely 1. To gain insight into needs related to help-seeking among men with (previous) suicidal thoughts (STUDY 1). More specifically, this study examines help-seeking behaviour, possible barriers to seeking help and needs with regard to existing tools and health care among men who had suicidal thoughts. In other words, is there a difference in help-seeking behaviour between men and women with suicidal thoughts in the past and what factors contribute to this difference? More specifically: 1. To what extent do men with suicidal thoughts in the past recognize their need for help, compared to women with suicidal thoughts in the past? 2. What barriers and needs do men with suicidal thoughts in the past experience towards seeking help, compared to women with suicidal thoughts in the past? 3. What barriers and needs do men with suicidal thoughts in the past experience to remain engaged in help, compared to women with suicidal thoughts in the past? 2. To map out needs of healthcare providers in working with men with suicidal thoughts and/or behaviour (STUDY 2). More specifically, how do healthcare providers experience working with men who are feeling suicidal and what are their experienced barriers and needs. Two main research questions were formulated: 1. How do health care providers experience working with men (in comparison to women or people of other genders) who are feeling suicidal? 2. What needs and barriers do health care providers experience when working with men (in comparison to women or people of other genders) who are feeling suicidal?
This study will assess the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of the RSVPreF3 OA investigational vaccine when it is co-administered with a COVID-19 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine (Omicron XBB.1.5), compared to administration of the vaccines separately in adults aged 50 years and above.
Objectives: To identify differentially expressed miRNAs in the blood of adenomyosis patients in view to develop new diagnostic methods Hypotheses Circulating miRNAs may be abnormally expressed in patients suffering from adenomyosis and could be used to diagnose the disease Study Design Blood samples will be collected from healthy subjects and adenomyosis patients and miRNAs will be isolated and analyzed to detect potential differences.
This is a Phase 3 extension, global, multicenter study to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of tolebrutinib in adult participants (aged ≥18 years) with RMS, PPMS, or NRSPMS who were previously enrolled in the Phase 2b LTS (LTS16004) or 1 of the 4 Phase 3 tolebrutinib pivotal trials (GEMINI 1 [EFC16033], GEMINI 2 [EFC16034], HERCULES [EFC16645], or PERSEUS [EFC16035]).

This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, induction and maintenance study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RVT-3101 in adult participants with moderate to severe active Crohn's disease.
This study is a prospective, observational, single-center study to assess the correlation between rs-fMRI measures and clinical measures of standard MRI, NIRS, EEG and clinical scores. The target population was neonates with HIE referred to MRI after hypothermia treatment, which was initiated within 6 hours of birth, continued for 72 hours and followed by a slow rewarming period of 6-12 hours. A one-year clinical and imaging follow-up is planned. As the aim of the present study is to assess the predictiveness of the outcome one year after the HIE event, no follow-up is planned.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the analgesic effect of locoregional anaesthesia, specifically the interpectoral pectoserratus plane (IPP-PSP) block, in comparison to a placebo (sham block) after Aortic Valve Replacement via Right Anterior Minithoracotomy (AVR-RAT). The main question the trial aims to answer is: Can the IPP-PSP block effectively reduce opioid consumption within the first 48 hours after AVR-RAT surgery? The purpose is to understand the impact of the IPP-PSP block on postoperative pain. Therefore, the aim is to investigate the influence of the IPP-PSP block on the amount of pain medication administered during the patients' first 48 hours after surgery. Participants, who are scheduled for AVR-RAT surgery, will be randomly assigned to receive either the IPP-PSP block or the sham block. Researchers will compare opioid consumption among other outcomes, including differences in pain scores, incidence of nausea and vomiting, quality of recovery, quality of life, and the length of hospital stay between the two groups. Patients will be monitored during their hospitalization, and a follow-up phone call will be conducted 30 days after surgery.
