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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single ascending doses of PF-06852231 after first-time administration to healthy adult subjects. The safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of an active metabolite (PF-06892787) will also be evaluated in this study.
This research study is done to test the safety of the new drug selitrectinib in children and adults with cancer having a change in a particular gene (NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3). The drug may treat cancer by interfering with the effect of the NTRK genes on cancer growth. The study also investigates how the drug is absorbed and processed in the human body, and how well and for how long the cancer responds to the drug. This is the first study to test selitrectinib in humans with cancer, for whom no other effective therapy exists.
The study is a Phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating multiple ascending oral doses of GLPG2451 and the combination of GLPG2451 and GLPG2222 given for 14 days in healthy male subjects. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending oral doses of GLPG2451 given to healthy male subjects compared to placebo, as well as of multiple oral doses of the combination of GLPG2451/GLPG2222 compared to placebo.
In spine surgery postoperative pain can often be severe and difficult to treat.With the use of ultrasound, the performance of plane blocks and other techniques like root blocks, facet infiltration have become possible without the use of either unreliable " pop-techniques" or the use of x-ray.The erector spinae block was recently described as a safe and simple and safe technique for neuropathic pain and acute post surgical pain, with effect on the dorsal rami of the spinal nerves and with promising results. In this observational pilot study we want to test the influence of these to blocks on the postoperative pain and opioid consumption after spine fusion.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether continuous infusion of beta-lactam antibiotics or intermittent infusion or beta-lactam antibiotics, offers more health advantages to patients or if there is no difference. The investigators will be looking to see whether patients receiving beta-lactams via one administration method or the other have a better chance of recovering from their illness. They will also be looking at long term outcomes such as quality-of-life and healthcare resource use. Sepsis is caused by toxic substances (toxins) from bacteria and other organism entering the bloodstream from a site of infection. In some people, the infection can progress to sepsis and septic shock where the functions of organs in the body are affected. Patients suffering from sepsis and septic shock are commonly managed in the intensive care unit (ICU) where they are prescribed antibiotics as standard therapy, as well as other therapies to support the functions of the body. Beta-lactam antibiotics are a group of antibiotics commonly used to treat infection in patients with sepsis and septic shock. Currently, beta-lactam antibiotics are most commonly given to patients be intermittent infusions, that is, given at regular intervals throughout 24 hours. New research suggests that giving beta-lactam antibiotics as a continuous infusion may mean that antibiotic concentrations in the blood remain more consistent and may be more effective at killing bacteria. However, the benefit to the patient by giving beta-lactams via continuous infusion has not been tested in a high-quality, large clinical trial.
Blocking the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve (MACN) during an axillary block often a subcutaneous wheal of local anesthetics is made what is described as painful. With the improvement of the resolution of the ultrasound machines smaller structures and nerves can be visable. In this study topographic assessment will made of the anatomical variation of the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve (MACN) by ultrasound in the axilla and 5 cm above the cubital fossa of the arm.
One of the main complications after stroke is hemiplegic shoulder pain. It is known that one of the most frequent causes of hemiplegic shoulder pain is a restricted range of motion in the shoulder joint. Therefore, it is necessary to preserve the passive range of motion by using the most optimal mobilization technique. The aim of this study is to compare 2 different techniques in order to document their influence on shoulder range of motion and shoulder pain in stroke patients.
TMD treatment, based on state of the art knowledge derived from clinical studies will be applied in patients with tinnitus and TMD. When this approach proves to be useful for the treatment of tinnitus, it offers a new therapeutic option for patients with tinnitus. To understand how TMD treatment works for patients with tinnitus, we will analyse mediating factors, i.e. factors that contribute to the therapeutic effect. To help clinicians in their clinical process we will identify prognostic indicators, i.e. factors that predict a positive or negative outcome of TMD treatment. This can provide a helpful tool in clinical practice.
The study compares in a randomized controlled way two stimulation methods. One of these stimulation methods implements a new insight in ovarian follicular growth. If this novel method of stimulation proves to be as efficient as the classical stimulation protocols, there might be a dramatic reduction of the costs of the medical therapy in IVF, thus reducing also the overall IVf costs significantly.
The purpose of this study is to determine the benefit and safety of relugolix 40 milligrams (mg) once daily, co-administered with low-dose estradiol (E2) and norethindrone acetate (NETA) compared with placebo for 24 weeks, on dysmenorrhea and on nonmenstrual pelvic pain.
