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 2 part study in patients with EGFRm+ non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), whose disease has progressed on an EGFRm TKI, who are refractory or resistant to standard therapy. Part A will assess the effect of multiple oral doses of itraconazole on the single dose pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of AZD9291. On completion of Part A, patients may continue to take AZD9291 tablets (Part B) following the collection of the 216 hour sample on Day 19 if they and the Investigator deem it appropriate, until such time as their disease progresses, the Investigator believes they are no longer deriving clinical benefit, or they stop taking AZD9291 for any other reason
The project consists of qualitative interviews with all the members of the obesity team (endocrinologist, bariatric surgeon, dietician, psychologist,..) in different Flemish hospitals. These interviews have the aim to gain insight into the current practice about counseling patients with bariatric surgery, with a focus on medication counseling. This will make it possible to assess the strengths and weaknesses in the current practice of obese patients who will undergo and have undergone bariatric surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine the rate and frequency of high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grade 3 or higher), treatment-related, select adverse events in subjects with histologically confirmed stage III (unresectable) or stage IV melanoma and progression post prior treatment containing an anti-Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Antigen (CTLA-4) monoclonal antibody, treated with Nivolumab (BMS-936558) at a dose of 3 mg/kg every two weeks.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of autologous epidermal cells suspension grafting using a newly developed device named VITICELL® compared to placebo. The secondary objective is to evaluate safety of VITICELL® and global satisfaction of patient and investigator.
The purpose of the study is to determine if benralizumab reduces COPD exacerbation rate in symptomatic patients with moderate to very severe COPD who are receiving standard of care therapies.
This study aims to analyze what the study drug does to the body and its relationship to drug levels and safety after patients with advanced cancer have been treated with copanlisib in different dose groups.
The purpose of this long-term follow-up study was to evaluate the persistence of the cellular and the humoral immune response 4 years after the first dose of GSK Biologicals' investigational vaccine formulations containing HBsAg (used as a model antigen) and an adjuvant.
The purpose of this study was to assess if bimagrumab is safe and effective in patients with muscle wasting (atrophy) after hip fracture surgery.
Acromegaly is a rare hormonal disorder leading to increased morbidity and mortality. In the vast majority of cases, a pituitary somatotroph cell adenoma causes excess growth hormone (GH) secretion, leading to hepatic insulin-like-growth factor 1 (IGF-1) hypersecretion. Both the disease as well as its treatment with long-acting somatostatin analogs (LA-SMSA) and/or pegvisomant affect glucose and lipid metabolism, possibly contributing to increased cardiovascular risk. In this pilot study, the investigators want to explore insulin sensitivity, postprandial gut hormone response, lipid handling and adipocytokine profile in the following 4 groups: - controlled acromegalic patients on LA-SMSA (group 1) - controlled acromegalic patients on combination treatment of LA-SMSA and pegvisomant (group 2) - acromegalic patients without need for medical therapy after surgery (group 3) - healthy control subjects (group 4) Furthermore, a longitudinal exploration will be performed in uncontrolled acromegalic patients (i.e. patients with serum IGF-1 levels above age-specific thresholds and/or symptoms due to active acromegaly (excessive sweating , arthralgia)) on LA-SMSA monotherapy (group 5). In this group, insulin sensitivity, postprandial gut hormone response, lipid handling and adipocytokine profile will be explored before introducing pegvisomant and three months after normalisation of IGF-1 levels. The investigators hypothesize that lipid and glucose handling will be less efficient in the controlled acromegalic patients on LA-SMSA than in controlled patients on combination therapy or after surgery, and that there will be no difference in substrate metabolism between healthy controls and controlled acromegalic patients on combination treatment or after surgery. Further, they hypothesize that introducing pegvisomant in uncontrolled acromegalic patients will improve their postprandial lipid and glucose handling.
Tapentadol has already been studied in adults. This study is needed to find out if tapentadol works and is safe to use in children and adolescents with long-term pain.
