There are about 13446 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.
This study aims to prove that, by a one-time topical spray on the cervix, AV2-DM is an effective antiviral in reducing on short term (3 months) the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. - Primary endpoint: significant drop in viral load AV2-DM versus placebo - Secondary endpoint:the number of patients with adverse events
The purpose of this study is to find out if lenalidomide when given along with rituximab can help to control the disease and also increase the length of your response (complete or partial response) compared to the standard of care rituximab chemotherapy treatment.
The purpose of this trial is to assess whether MYDICAR can reduce the frequency and/or delay heart failure related hospitalizations in persons with advanced heart failure when added to their maximal and optimized therapy.
Over the past decades, survival rates in heart transplantation recipients improved significantly, due to advancements in regimens of immunosuppressives and surgical techniques, but are still limited to the first 12 months post transplantation. Long-term survival remains almost unchanged indicating the need to identify and improve relevant factors. Evidence in other chronically-ill patient populations shows that the healthcare system (e.g. level of chronic illness management (CIM)) and patient self-management (e.g. adherence) drive improvements in outcomes. The BRIGHT study is the first multi-centre, multi-continental study examining healthcare system and heart transplant centres chronic illness management practice patterns and potential correlates of immunosuppressive medication nonadherence. The knowledge gained will inform clinicians, researchers and healthcare policy makers about the level(s) interventions need to be implemented at to improve long-term outcomes for transplant recipients.
The purpose of this study is to determine the side effects of treatment of the combination of nivolumab and daratumumab in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
International GBS Outcome Study (IGOS) is a study conducted by the members of the Inflammatory Neuropathy Consortium (INC) and Peripheral Nerve Society (PNS) on disease course and outcome in Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). The IGOS aims to identify clinical and biological determinants and predictors of disease course and outcome in individual patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome, as early as possible after onset of disease.
The purpose of the study is to see whether treatment with LY2157299 on its own, LY2157299 plus lomustine therapy or lomustine plus placebo can help participants with brain cancer
Patients who have scheduled a gastric bypass (RYGB) in UZ Leuven, will be questioned preoperatively and one, three, six and twelve months after gastric bypass surgery. The purpose of this study is to explore current practice regarding the use of medication and medication counseling after RYGB and to examine the changes in dietary pattern before and after RYGB.
T-DM1 , which is a highly innovative but also expensive antiHER2 agent consisting in the coupling of the humanised monoclonal antibody trastuzumab with a cytotoxic agent (maytansine derivate) has shown an encouraging antitumor activity evaluated by Recist criteria (35% objective response rate, 44% stable disease, 18% progressive disease) in patients with advanced HER2 positive Breast Cancer pretreated with several cytotoxic drugs, trastuzumab and lapatinib. Rationale I :For TDM1 to be active, the presence of an intact HER2 receptor is "key" since the internalization of the cytotoxic moiety depends on the binding of trastuzumab to the external domain of HER2. The zirconium 89 labelled trastuzumab PET/CT (or HER2 immunoPET/CT) is a non invasive test which shows promise in measuring HER2 expression (extracellular domain) for the entire disease burden and which could identify non responding patients prior to TDM1 administration. Rationale II: As for many such agents, it is desirable to identify early on (here with the use of FDG-PET/CT) which patients are unlikely to benefit from the therapy
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy on overall survival for elderly patients with breast cancer, in a sub group with a high risk of relapse according to Genomic Grade test.
