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 study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, and tolerability of AZD7442 administered intramuscularly (IM) or intravenously (IV) in pediatric participants aged ≥ 29 weeks GA to < 18 years.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, pharmacodynamics (PD) and safety of ELX/TEZ/IVA in participants 6 years of age and older with a non-F508del ELX/TEZ/IVA-responsive cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) mutation.
This study is to evaluate new approaches to device fitting and diagnostics for cochlear implant users. The evaluation can be performed in the laboratory in an acute session or in real world environments with take-home device use to further validate their benefits. Each feature will be tested in a sub-study specific to that hearing care model. On average, each sub-study is expected to include approximately 20 subjects.
This is a monocentric randomized prospective trial comparing 2 different endovascular strategies of intracranial arterial angioplasty in case of refractory intracranial arterial vasospastic stenosis : - chemical angioplasty - chemical and mechanical angioplasty
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of bemarituzumab monotherapy and combination with other anti-cancer therapies, and to determine the recommended phase 3 dose of bemarituzumab in combination with other anti-cancer therapies.
The aim of the study is to demonstrate the performance of Withings WBS08 in the automatic identification of atrial fibrillation and sinus rhythm.
In order to validate that the VIPUN, Gastric Monitoring System (GMS) is a gastric motility monitoring system, we intend to show that the VIPUN GMS can assess motility through pressure measurement similar to high-resolution manometry (HRM). In addition, the study aims to contribute to the design and development of a position confirmation functionality integrated in the VIPUN Gastric Monitoring System by establishing volume-pressure relations in the stomach and esophagus.
Background: Although the health benefits of physical activity are well established, it remains challenging for people to adopt a more active lifestyle. Mobile health (mHealth) interventions can be effective tools to promote physical activity and reduce sedentary behavior. Promising results have been obtained by using gamification techniques as behavior change strategies, especially when they were tailored toward an individual's preferences and goals; yet, it remains unclear how goals could be personalized to effectively promote health behaviors. Objective: In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the impact of personalized goal setting in the context of gamified mHealth interventions. The investigators hypothesize that interventions suggesting health goals that are tailored based on end users' (self-reported) current and desired capabilities will be more engaging than interventions with generic goals. Methods: The study was designed as a 2-arm randomized intervention trial. Participants were recruited among staff members of Noorderkempen governmental organization. They participated in an 8-week digital health promotion campaign that was especially designed to promote walks, bike rides, and sports sessions. Using an mHealth app, participants could track their performance on two social leaderboards: a leaderboard displaying the individual scores of participants and a leaderboard displaying the average scores per organizational department. The mHealth app also provided a news feed that showed when other participants had scored points. Points could be collected by performing any of the 6 assigned tasks (eg, walk for at least 2000 m). The level of complexity of 3 of these 6 tasks was updated every 2 weeks by changing either the suggested task intensity or the suggested frequency of the task. The 2 intervention arms-with participants randomly assigned-consisted of a personalized treatment that tailored the complexity parameters based on participants' self-reported capabilities and goals and a control treatment where the complexity parameters were set generically based on national guidelines. Measures were collected from the mHealth app as well as from intake and posttest surveys and analyzed using hierarchical linear models. Note: Eindhoven University of Technology is not an official GCP sponsor. Hence, this study is not a medical clinical trial.
Current evidence suggests resistance exercise as the primary therapeutic strategy to prevent age-related functional decline. The National Strength and Conditioning Association recently stated that a properly designed resistance exercise program should include power exercises performed at higher velocities in concentric movements with moderate intensities. We should be aware that not all older adults are easily motivated to train in unfamiliar gym-based settings with high subscription fees. Therefore, implementation of traditional gym-based resistance exercise at a large scale has been found to be difficult. Interestingly, we have previously shown that the use of high external loads, which implies the need for specific facility memberships, is not necessary to induce neuromuscular gains. This provides strong support for home-based training intervention strategies. Stair climbing or stepping-based exercise constitute a promising avenue to ameliorate the cost-effectiveness and implementation potential of resistance exercise in older adults. Such exercises can induce muscular activation levels similar to high-load resistance exercise and result in similar or even better gains in muscle mass, strength and power compared to slow-speed resistance exercise when properly designed. However, the (neuro)-muscular effects of stair climbing exercise have never been compared to the more optimal power-oriented resistance exercise, which is the primary aim of this study. The secondary aim of this study is to examine if stair climbing exercise also has beneficial effects on cognition.
A monocentric prospective and randomized trial aiming to compare the diagnostic yield and safety of electromagnetical-guided bronchoscopy (ENB) procedures coupled to trans-bronchial lung cryobiopsies for the diagnosis of pulmonary nodule when performed either in a "standard" bronchoscopy suite or in a hybrid room with CBCT guidance and the use of the CrossCountry technique as required.
