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 is a phase 2 study to evaluate multiple doses of AK001 across 2 active doses. Pharmacodynamic activity will also be evaluated.
This is a prospective observational laboratory evaluation of the persistence rate of zika virus (ZIKV) infection in semen by real-time Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), and assessment of ZIKV replication-competence in semen by isolation of ZIKV. Evaluation of the persistence of ZIKV and its replication-competence in semen samples will increase the understanding of the risk of sexual transmission of ZIKV infection in the post-viremic phase in non-epidemic settings.
This is a proof of mechanism trial to explore the effect of BI 1026706 on the central retinal thickness and to evaluate safety and tolerability of BI 1026706 administered orally for 12 weeks in patients with mild vision impairment due to center-involved DME
Worldwide, respiratory diseases have a significant impact on morbidity and mortality of individuals.Tobacco, lifestyle and certain allergens such as dust mites play an important role in the prevalence and morbidity of these diseases. Scientific literature indicates that sensitization to allergens and respiratory diseases (asthma, rhinitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) are closely linked. Moreover, smoking has an effect on allergen sensitivity. To make a diagnosis of allergic sensitization, skin tests are performed in the patient. One of the methods used is the technique of "prick test". In practice, a drop of purified allergen extract is placed on the patient's skin (arms or back). A little dosis of the product is then injected in the epidermis. If fifteen minutes later, there is an edematous reaction, its diameter is measured in millimeters. From 4 mm, it is considered that the patient is sensitized to the tested foods or allergens.This technique is painless and convenient to patients of all ages, including newborns or conversely very aged patients. This is a retrospective study based on the encoding and statistical analysis of data collected in patients followed within the Immuno-Allergology Service of the CHU Brugmann Hospital, who received an allergy assessment between 01/01/2015 and 31/12/2015. The allergens tested include: dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (DEPT), dermatophagoides farinae (DPF), blomia, cat, dog, cockroach, orchardgrass, timothy grass, alder, hazel,birch, olive tree, cypress, ash, latex, aspergillus, alternaria, cladosporium, peanut, hazel. At least 1400 files will be analyzed. Patients will be distributed in six age groups.The results of the allergen skin tests will be encoded as the edema diameter. The allergenicity score (mean of the skin reactivities for each allergen) will be compared between each age groups. The impact of tabagism, gender, BMI and residential area on the allergic reactivity will also be assessed in the overall population and within each age group. The main objective is to evaluate the effect of age on the skin test positivity. The secondary objective is to highlight the environmental factors that have an impact on allergic diseases.
This study will evaluate the role of addition of an anti-angiogenic agent (Nintedanib/placebo) to conventional combination chemotherapy as concomitant and maintenance treatment in primary advanced or with first relapse of endometrial cancer.
This is a Phase III randomized, double-blind, parallel group, multi-center, 52-week COPD exacerbation and lung function study with PT009 320/9.6 μg, PT009 160/9.6 μg and PT005 9.6 μg, all administered BID.
To optimize a medical device for intradermal injection, knowledge concerning the thickness of epidermis and dermis at the proximal forearm is required. Since scientific knowledge is lacking, the investigators will examine the skin thickness (epidermis and dermis) of children (aged 8 weeks to 18 years) using imaging technology (High Frequency Ultrasound). The investigators hypothesize that they are able to correlate the thickness of the (epi)dermis to a specific combination of parameters age, gender, and BMI. Based on these results, the investigators can define which needle type and length is needed to correctly perform injections into the dermal layer
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if sapanisertib in combination with weekly paclitaxel improves progression-free survival (PFS) compared to weekly paclitaxel alone.
The aim of this clinical investigation is to evaluate objective and subjective hearing performance with the Cochlear Baha 5 SuperPower Sound Processor on the Baha Attract System, compared to the unaided hearing performance. Comparison of audiological test results with the same sound processor on a Baha Softband will also be performed. Short term safety parameters will be collected.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab 150 mg or 300 mg in the management of axial manifestations in PsA patients who have failed to respond to at least 2 non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) over a 4-week period, according to assessment of spondyloarthritis international society (ASAS) recommendations for the treatment of axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA).
