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 learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine called vepdegestrant. The safety and effects of vepdegestrant will be see when given with other medicines. Vepdegestrant is studied to see if it can be a possible treatment for advanced metastatic breast cancer. This type of cancer would have spread from where it started (breast) to other parts of the body and would be tough to treat. The study is seeking for participants who have breast cancer that: - is hard to treat (advanced) and may have spread to other organs (metastatic). is sensitive to hormonal therapy (it is called estrogen receptor positive). - is no longer responding to treatments taken before starting this study. This study is divided into separate sub-studies. For Sub-Study C: All the participants will receive vepdegestrant and a medicine called samuraciclib. Vepdegestrant and samuraciclib will be taken once in a day by mouth. The medicines will be taken at home. The experience of people receiving the study medicines will be studied. This will help see if the study medicine is safe and effective. Participant will continue to take vepdegestrant and samuraciclib until: - their cancer is no longer responding, or - side effects become too severe. They will have visits at the study clinic about every 4 weeks.
Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a common inflammatory skin disease, which represents a major public health issue in industrialized countries. ACD is induced by repeated contact of individuals with environmental chemicals and is characterized by a delayed type IV hypersensitivity response with skin inflammation mediated by allergen-specific T cells in sensitized individuals. The current diagnosis is based on clinical examination, assessment of environmental exposures and patch testing. Although the robustness of patch tests has long been established, this method can sometimes give inconclusive results, leading to problems in disease management. Preliminary results indicate that the molecular analysis of Patch-Tests (PT) reactions could allow a more reliable diagnosis. Importantly, this gene profiling approach may help to identify patients with false positive PT reactions, i.e. patients whose PT reactions did not show any "allergy signature". However, it remains to be demonstrated that the presence or absence of allergy biomarkers in PT lesions are indeed predictive of ACD response in patients. The main objective is to describe the correlation between these molecular signatures and the reactivity of individuals when they are exposed to allergenic compounds under conditions of use (using ROAT test).
The purpose of this study is to assess the initial safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of the novel BliStim occipital nerve field stimulation therapy for the prevention of chronic cluster headaches. This is a prospective, first in human study.
The intention of the study is to demonstrate superiority of Saruparib (AZD5305) + physician's choice NHA relative to placebo + physician's choice NHA by assessment of radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) in participants with mCSPC.
The beach chair position is the most commonly used position during shoulder surgery and offers the surgeon numerous advantages over the lateral decubitus position. However, the beach chair position can also lead to hemodynamic changes, including hypotension and cerebral hypoperfusion. It is therefore the anesthesiologist's job to prevent hypotension during the procedure. The Acumen Hypotension Predictor Index or HPI for short is a software program that can predict the occurrence of low blood pressure during surgery shortly before it occurs. Studies have already demonstrated the effectiveness of HPI in various operations, where hypotension is defined as a mean arterial blood pressure < 65mmHg for at least 1 minute. To our knowledge, the low blood pressure prediction index has not yet been investigated for the prevention of low blood pressure in shoulder surgery in the beach chair position. The HPI is built into a monitor that is switched on in addition to the standard monitoring for monitoring blood pressure, pulse, saturation, among other things. The monitor gives a signal when an episode of low blood pressure will occur within 15 minutes. This gives the anesthesiologist the opportunity to anticipate in time so that the occurrence of low blood pressure can be avoided. Goal The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the HPI in predicting and reducing the incidence of hypotension during shoulder surgery in the beach chair position. Procedure A total of 144 patients will participate in this study. Patients will be randomized to the intervention group or the control group according to a 1:1 allocation. In addition to standard monitoring, the HPI monitor will be turned on for all patients. For patients in the control group, the HPI monitor screen will be blinded and the alarms muted. Patients between 18 and 85 years of age with a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 undergoing elective shoulder surgery are eligible for the study.
The purpose of this study is to assess if adding LY3537982 in combination with standard of care anti-cancer drugs is more effective than standard of care in participants with untreated advanced NSCLC. NSCLC must have a change in a gene called KRAS G12C. Study participation, including follow-up, could last up to 3 years, depending on how you and your lung cancer are doing.
The literature has identified impairments in various cognitive functions, including learning, memory, attention, psychomotor speed, executive function, and working memory. However, only a few studies to date have investigated impairment in the decision-making process. The aim of this study is to evaluate decision-making skills in a group of patients with fibromyalgia and compare these results with a group of healthy controls. Specifically, investigators will evaluate four hypotheses: 1. Patients with fibromyalgia may show disadvantageous decision-making in contexts of emotional decision-making and may persevere more in their wrong choices. For this reason, investigators hypothesize that patients with fibromyalgia will more frequently choose the disadvantageous decks than the healthy control group in the Iowa Gambling Task. 2. Secondly, investigators hypothesize that patients with fibromyalgia need more time to make their choice. Consistent with this hypothesis, researchers expect to find significant differences in the average time taken by the participant to make a choice in the Iowa Gambling Task. 3. The third hypothesis is that patients with fibromyalgia may have greater difficulty inhibiting automatic responses, which may lead to longer reaction times in the Stroop task. Investigators also hypothesize that stimuli with negative emotional valence (related to the typical pain experience in fibromyalgia) may have a greater effect on patients with fibromyalgia than on healthy controls (longer reaction time in the emotional Stroop Task compared to healthy controls). 4. Finally, investigators hypothesize that anxiety, depression, sleep quality, pain, decision-making style and social support may be related to worse performance in ability-based tasks.
A greater extent of resection of the contrast-enhancing (CE) tumor part has been associated with improved outcomes in high-grade glioma patients. Recent results suggest that resection of the non-contrast-enhancing (NCE) part might yield even better survival outcomes (supramaximal resection, SMR). Therefore, this study evaluates the efficacy and safety of SMR with and without mapping techniques in HGG patients in terms of survival, functional, neurological, cognitive, and quality of life outcomes. Furthermore, it evaluates which patients benefit the most from SMR, and how they could be identified preoperatively. This study is an international, multicenter, prospective, 2-arm cohort study of observational nature. Consecutive HGG patients will be operated with supramaximal resection or maximal resection at a 1:3 ratio. Primary endpoints are: 1) overall survival and 2) proportion of patients with NIHSS (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale) deterioration at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively. Secondary endpoints are 1) residual CE and NCE tumor volume on postoperative T1-contrast and FLAIR MRI scans 2) progression-free survival; 3) onco-functional outcome, and 4) quality of life at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively. The study will be carried out by the centers affiliated with the European and North American Consortium and Registry for Intraoperative Mapping (ENCRAM).
The primary purpose of this study is evaluate the safety and tolerability of fenfluramine hydrochloride (HCl) 0.2 to 0.8 mg/kg/day in infants 1 year to less than 2 years of age with Dravet syndrome.
This study investigates a newly developed test, The CochSyn test that can quantify cochlear synaptopathy (CS) (a new type of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL)) earlier than the current golden standard pure-tone audiogram.This newly developed test is based on auditory evoked brain potentials. A hardware prototype (the Cochsyn test prototype) was developed to use the Cochsyn test in clinical practice. Additionally a CS-based sound-processing algorithm (CoNNear) that is designed to improve speech intelligibility in subjects that are identified to have CS, will be investigated in this study.
