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 the study is to measure the uptake, distribution, and clearance of 11C-MK-3168 by Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan and to model the tissue specific kinetics of 11C-MK-3168 with the appropriate input function in human brain in Part A; to measure blocking of retention of 11C-MK-3168 at the estimated time to maximum plasma concentration after dosing (tmax) following each single oral doses of JNJ-42165279 and model the exposure/enzyme interaction of JNJ-42165279 in Part B; to measure the saturation of enzyme inhibition in the brain at steady state plasma concentrations of JNJ-42165279 (on Day 8) after 7 once-daily doses of JNJ-42165279 by conducting PET studies with 11C-MK-3168 at trough plasma concentrations on Day 2 in Part C.
There is growing evidence that non-eosinophilic asthmatics are less sensitive to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) than eosinophilic asthmatics. As non-eosinophilic asthmatic patients are treated by ICS according to international guidelines for asthma, the investigators would like to investigate whether stepping-down of ICS in these patients may be safe. Indeed, the investigators can reasonably expect that a progressive cessation of ICS is possible in some of these patients without any clinical worsening.
The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of two EUS-guided tissue acquisition devices; the 25G Echotip Ultra Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) device and the 20G Echotip ProCore Fine Needle Biopsy (FNB) device.
The objectives of this registry are to 1. Collect clinical data on Boston Scientific's ImageReady MR Conditional Pacing Systems involving the INGEVITY lead based on observations / events 2. Gather data on actual number of MRI scans performed in the patient cohort implanted with an ImageReady system including information about scanned body parts. 3. Collect physician feedback on lead handling with the INGEVITY lead in a real-life, market-released standard of care environment using devices on intended purpose and which are authorized to bear the CE (Communauté Européenne) marking / are approved for use in the applicable area of participating centers. No additional invasive or other burdensome examinations are to be carried out other than the ones conducted by the centers per their general standard of care.
Polypharmacy is a common problem in elderly, leading among others to increased adverse drug events. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate whether a systematic medication evaluation by a geriatric consultation team using the RASP (Rationalisation of drugs on admission by an adjusted STOPP*-list in older patients) list could reduce inappropriate prescribing for elderly admitted patients, admitted to non-geriatric departments. (* = Screening Tool of Older Persons' potentially inappropriate Prescriptions)
This registry is a prospective, multi-center, observational study and will collect safety data on multiple myeloma adult patients who have received at least two prior therapies and take IMNOVID (pomalidomide) as part of standard care. The registry will remain open until 500 patients will have received at least 3 cycles of pomalidomide. All patients registered will be followed for up to 3 years after the informed consent date or until death or withdrawal of consent. During this time the incidence of second primary malignancies (SPM), overall survival and any occurrence of a pregnancy will be assessed.
The main objective of this study is to compare a Dual Antithrombotic Therapy (DAT) regimen of 110mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (110mg dabigatran etexilate (DE) DAT) and 150mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (150mg DE-DAT) with a Triple Antithrombotic Therapy (TAT) combination of warfarin plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor plus Aspirin (ASA) <= 100mg once daily (warfarin-TAT) in patients with Atrial Fibrillation that undergo a PCI with stenting (elective or due to an Acute Coronary Syndrome). The study aims to show non-inferiority of each dose of DE-DAT when compared to Warfarin-TAT in terms of safety. Safety will be determined by comparing the rates of bleeding events, assessed using the modified International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis classification of Major Bleeding and Clinically Relevant Non Major Bleeding Events.
The study evaluates the efficacy of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) to reduce the annual rate of moderate and severe exacerbations compared with dual therapy of FF/VI or UMEC/VI in subjects with COPD. Published studies which assessed the use of an 'open' triple therapy (use of Inhaled Corticosteroid [ICS]/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists [LAMA])/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist [LABA] delivered via multiple inhalers) in moderate-severe COPD patients, reported improvements in lung function, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), hospitalization rates and rescue medication use, compared to dual therapy (ICS/LABA) or LAMA alone. These studies have also shown similar safety profile with dual or monotherapy doses for periods of up to one year. Given the clinical experience with FF, UMEC and VI, and that the associated risks with these compounds are anticipated from their known pharmacology, the potential benefit of a new therapy option in patients with moderate to severe COPD supports the further development of the closed triple combination (delivered via one inhaler). In the current study subjects meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria will complete 2-week run-in period; 52 week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period. Eligible subjects will be randomized to one of the following double-blind treatment groups FF/UMEC/VI 100 micrograms (mcg)/62.5 mcg/25 mcg once daily (QD), FF/VI 100 mcg/25 mcg QD, or UMEC/VI 62.5 mcg/25 mcg QD
Hepatic encephalopathy is responsible for sleep disturbances and daytime sleepiness. The purpose of our study is to assess sleep quality, quantity, sleep schemes and physical activity in patients suffering from HE, before and after a 2 weeks treatment with rifaximine, which is currently given to lower blood ammoniac levels.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (C/P) compared to placebo plus C/P in participants with a Breast Cancer Gene 1 or 2 (BRCA1; BRCA2) mutation in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) through the end of Week 24, objective response rate (ORR) and PFS on subsequent therapy (PFS2) in participants treated with veliparib in combination with C/P versus placebo in combination with C/P.
