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 aim of this study is to assess prospectively the critical period prior to the development of Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF) (1), to uncover mechanistic and pathophysiological processes associated with the development and clinical course of ACLF (2) and to identify the precipitating events of ACLF (3).
Human Neutrophil Elastase (HNE) plays a pivotal role in innate immunity and in neutrophilic lung inflammation that characterized many diseases. CHF 6333 is a potent and 24h-durable inhibitor of HNE, developed as Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) formulation. This study is designed to investigate the tolerability, safety and pharmacokinetics of inhaled CHF6333 DPI in healthy male subjects. The study will comprise two parts: Part 1 will consist of two alternated cohorts of healthy male subjects to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of Single Ascending Dose (SAD) of CHF6333. Part 2 will consist of four sequential cohorts of healthy male subjects to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) of CHF6333
The aim of the study is to compare the acute procedure and safety outcomes as well as long term clinical outcomes of 2 groups of patients treated with the HeartLight® Endoscopically Guided Laser Ablation (EGLA) or a commercially available Contact Force Sensing Irrigated Radiofrequency (RF) Ablation Catheter plus, at the operator's discretion, 3D Electroanatomical Mapping (EAM) for the treatment of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF).
The aim of the study is to retrospectively monitor the 'gross tumor volume' (GTV) before initiation of radiotherapy and its changes during radiotherapy and to correlate them with retrospectively recorded patient data, as well as with prognostic and therapeutic outcome after definite radiotherapy of locally advanced NSCLC in stage UICC III.
The main purpose of this registry is to assess liver toxicity, treatment efficacy, and safety of DEB-TACE using anthracyclin loaded LifePearls for treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma allocated to TACE treatment.
This study evaluated the safety, efficacy and clinical benefit of BGB-3111 (zanubrutinib) vs ibrutinib in participants with MYD88 Mutation Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of UCB7665 as a chronic-intermittent treatment in subjects with generalized myasthenia gravis (MG) who are classified as moderate to severe.
The purpose of the BIOLUX P-III BENELUX Registry is to further investigate the safety and clinical performance of the Passeo-18 Lux Drug Coated Ballon when used in daily clinical practice for the treatment of isolated atherosclerotic lesion (vessel narrowing) in popliteal arteries
Adults with a congenital heart disease, having undergone a surgical intervention or a re-do surgery in adulthood, are a growing group of subjects in the general population. This increase is explained by improved medical and surgical techniques, with a better survival rate as outcome. There is nowadays a growing interest in the quality of life of this group of subjects. However, studies give contradictory results. This can be explained on one hand by the vast majority of pathologies within this population, and on the other hand by the absence of a cardio-specific tool for quality of life measurement. The MacNew questionnaire is cardio-specific. It allows an evaluation of the quality of life based on the exploration of three domains: physical, emotional and social. The aim of this study is: - to evaluate the quality of life of these patients, by using the MacNew questionnaire - to explore the needs in terms of prevention, treatment and multi-disciplinary follow-up - to assess the mortality within this group of patients.
Congenital heart diseases are nowadays frequently treated in newborns. These congenital heart defects can directly affect the right ventricular ejection tract (RVOT), or sometimes indirectly, when the left ventricular ejection tract (LVOT) is replaced by the ROVT in a Ross operation. Originally introduced by Ross and Somerville in 1966, the reconstruction of ROVT by valved homografts is since then widely used.Pulmonary and aortic homografts then constituted the gold standard in conduit replacement between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery (VD-AP). The increasing demand for homografts currently induces a shortage and unmet demands. This lack of availability, and the durability of homografts in young patients, has encouraged the search for alternative conducts.For example, in 1999, Medtronic® put a bovine jugular vein xenograft (VJB) on the market, the Contegra® conduct, as alternative for the homograft for RVOT reconstruction. This duct naturally has a central valve with three valvules, and there is on both sides of the valve a generous duct length allowing unique adaptation options. This conduit, however, is not perfect. Whether using Contegra® ducts or homografts, replacement is inevitable. The aim of this study is to compare operative morbidity and mortality when replacing Contegra® or homograft.
