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 purpose of this study is to obtain inhalation profiles in subjects with very severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). This is a study with no investigational medicinal product. Each subject will attend the clinic on 2 occasions, initially for a screening visit and then for further assessments if included (Visit 1). The maximum time that a subject may be enrolled in the study is 33 days from the screening visit to follow up.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate lot-to-lot consistency in terms of immunogenicity, and evaluate safety of the Herpes Zoster subunit (HZ/su) vaccine. The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind study with three parallel groups.
The successful re-opening of a blocked coronary artery has a beneficial effect on the further clinical course (e.g. improvement of clinical symptoms, improved quality of life, increased heart function, etc.). However, some types of blockages are more difficult to open by means of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a procedure which is commonly used for these kind of problems. This procedure makes use of a technique in which special wires, balloons, stents (metal or polymeric tube-like structures) and devices are utilized to re-open or revascularize a blockage in one of the blood vessels of the heart. This type of blockages are chronic total occlusions (CTO). CTOs have certain characteristics which impede the revascularization of the blood vessel. Nevertheless, remarkable progress has been achieved over the past few years in the area of CTO revascularization or CTO PCI. A large range of CTO dedicated materials, such as guidewires, guiding catheters, devices, balloons and stents, as well as different techniques have been developed. However, at present, reluctance to open CTOs still exists, due to the indications and outcomes of percutaneous revascularization as well as the technical difficulties which commonly arise during these interventional procedures. The presence of these difficulties results in suboptimal success rates worldwide (±70-80%), despite these many innovations. To increase these success rates and to make sure more interventional cardiologists will treat CTOs, a hybrid treatment algorithm has been developed with the materials (e.g. CrossBoss™ catheter; Bridgepoint Medical, Inc.) and techniques, currently already available. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and efficiency of this hybrid algorithm as well as validating the efficacy of one of the materials (CrossBoss™ catheter), used in this algorithm. To be able to do this, data concerning the patients' demographics, CTO characteristics, procedure and outcome will be collected in the form of a registry. This registry will be performed in several European centra (Belgium, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, France). Since the study will only collect data and no intervention is performed, this will be an observational study. At regular time points, the data will be checked for errors or inconsistencies. To do this, site visits will be performed at pre-defined times.
This study will assess efficacy of secukinumab, compared to ustekinumab, in patients that have plaque-type psoriasis
The primary objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of edoxaban (preceded by a short course of LMWH) compared with dalteparin for the prevention of the combined outcome of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) or major bleeding in subjects with VTE associated with cancer during a 12-month study period. If non-inferiority is established, LMWH/edoxaban will be compared with dalteparin for superiority.
This study will evaluate the impact of BOTOX® treatment on anticholinergic drug use in patients with urinary incontinence from Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity (NDO) due to spinal injury or Multiple Sclerosis (MS) who are prescribed BOTOX® as standard of care in clinical practice.
This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of 2 doses of pregabalin to reduce seizure frequency as an add on therapy in pediatric subjects 1 month to <4 years of age with refractory partial onset seizures. It is hypothesized that both doses of pregabalin will demonstrate superior efficacy when compared to placebo by reducing the partial onset seizure frequency and that pregabalin will be safe and well tolerated.
The purpose of this study is to compare edoxaban to warfarin (with enoxaparin, if needed). It will see if edoxaban prevents stroke and other blood clotting problems as well and as safely as warfarin. People with atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) might be able to join. Their doctors must plan to use shock to make their hearts beat normally. About 2200 people from different countries will join. They will have an equal chance of receiving either treatment. They are anticipated to be in the study for around 82 days. Tests will include physicals and finger-pricks. Participants will provide blood and urine samples.
Study to evaluate if macitentan is safe and tolerable enough to be used for treatment of subjects with combined pre- and post-capillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH) due to left ventricular dysfunction.
The purpose of this study is to investigate safety, toleration and time course of plasma concentration of multiple oral doses of PF-06372865 for 14 days in healthy subjects of two age groups, 18-55 years (Group 1) and 56-75 years (Group 2).
