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.
CHIPOR hypothesis is that the adjunction of platinum HIPEC in first relapsed epithelial ovarian cancer is able to improve the median Overall Survival (OS) by 12 months. In that hypothesis, with alpha risk of 5%, a power beta of 80%, during a 3 years period of inclusion and a 3 years follow-up, the number of patients to include is 404. Taking into account a 10% failure, an overall number of 444 patients is required.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm study will assess the safety and efficacy of pertuzumab in addition to chemotherapy plus trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy in participants with operable HER2-positive primary breast cancer. This study will be carried out in collaboration with the Breast International Group (BIG).
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of secukinumab in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis who are intolerant to or have had an inadequate response to NSAIDs, DMARDs and / or TNFα inhibitor therapy.
This study aims to characterize clonal evolution in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) using different approaches and to identify a possible association with disease progression, i.e. therapy initiation. 1. Samples This monocentric study is carried out using representative bioarchived leukemic samples with a diagnosis of CLL, either at diagnosis or at evolution. These bioarchived samples were collected locally at our center during years of diagnostic activity, and were accurately pathologically, cytogenetically and molecularly characterized. 2. Clinical data The clinical data were retrospectively collected through collaboration with the referring physicians. 3. Methods Samples will be investigated by means of (1) conventional cytogenetics, (2) fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and (3) SNP-arrays. After analysis of the array data sets, significant results will be validated and in addition, results will be correlated with clinical data.
The aim of this prospective case-control study is to investigate the prevalence, severity and incidence of systemic consequences in newly detected patients with mild and moderate Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Special attention will be paid to skeletal muscle dysfunction and physical inactivity as these factors are, together with smoking, potentially modifiable.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of patient outreach program on the proportion of time patients with MTC experience moderate or severe AEs during first 12 months of treatment with vandetanib
The DESSOLVE II clinical trial is to assess the safety and performance of the sirolimus-eluting MiStent for the treatment for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with symptomatic ischemic heart disease due to discrete de novo lesions in the native coronary arteries.
Parts A & B: Conversion of stable pediatric allograft recipients from Prograf® immunosuppression to Advagraf® immunosuppression to compare exposure and one year follow-up for safety and efficacy. Part C: Continuation of long-term follow-up and provision of ongoing study medication to subjects to whom Advagraf® is currently not available.
The primary objective of this clinical study is to determine whether the Innova Stent System shows acceptable performance in long-term (12-month) safety rates and vessel patency when treating femoropopliteal lesions.
PURPOSE: Cetuximab with platinum and 5FU is now the standard combination as first-line treatment in patients with metastatic or recurrent Head and Neck squamous cell carcinomas. Cetuximab and taxane combinations have demonstrated promising activity in Head and Neck cancer. This phase II trial is studying new cetuximab, docetaxel and cisplatin combination named TPEx as first-line treatment in this setting.
