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 primary purpose of the phase Ib is to estimate the MTD/RPD2 and of the phase II is to assess the anti-tumor activity of MEK162 in combination with panitumumab.
Cohort 1: Single-Arm, multicenter study to continue to assess the safety and performance of the Stellarex 035 Drug Coated Balloon (formerly known as the Cardiovascular Ingenuity (CVI) Paclitaxel-Coated PTA Balloon Catheter) in the treatment of de novo or restenotic lesions in the superficial femoral and/or popliteal arteries. Cohort 2: To evaluate this patient population for treatment of in-stent restenotic lesions.
The purpose of this study to evaluate safety, tolerability, treatment outcomes, appropriate use and pattern of paliperidone palmitate usage in participants with schizophrenia in the hospital setting.
This single arm, multicenter study will evaluate the safety of assisted subcutaneous administration of trastuzumab in participants with HER2+ eBC. Participants who have completed the first 6 cycles of intravenous (IV) trastuzumab as part of the (neo)adjuvant treatment will be eligible to receive a further 12 cycles of trastuzumab in this study. Participants will receive IV trastuzumab at initial loading dose of 8 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) body weight (BW) for three-weekly (q3w) regimen and then recommended maintenance dose of 6 mg/kg BW q3w for the first 3 cycles (cycles 7-9) in hospital followed by subcutaneous (SC) administration of trastuzumab at a fixed dose of 600 mg q3w for next 3 cycles (Cycles 10-12) at hospital and SC administration of trastuzumab at a fixed dose of 600 mg q3w at home for the next 6 cycles (Cycles 13-18).
This study evaluated the efficacy, safety and tolerability of multiple doses of bimagrumab/BYM338 vs placebo, when administered intravenously (i.v.), on physical function, muscle strength, and mobility in patients with sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM).
This study aims at validating in real-life clinical practice and using the self-reported Glaucoma Symptom Scale (GSS) questionnaire, the impact of a switch to preservative-free dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination (DTFC) in patients using preserved topical therapy for glaucoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess if Somatuline autogel 90 mg is effective in the treatment of dumping syndrome.
The purpose of the study was to determine whether treatment with a PI3K inhibitor plus letrozole led to an increase in pathologic clinical response and Objective Response Rate compared to treatment with placebo plus letrozole in patients with Breast cancer.
To describe Computed Tomography (CT) features associated with severe exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
External beam radiotherapy (RT) is one of the standard curative treatment options for patients with prostate cancer (PC). Several randomised trials have shown excellent long-term biochemical outcome with higher radiation doses. Nowadays, RT for PC commonly consists of delivering 74-80 Gy in 2 Gy fractions, resulting in an overall treatment time of 7-8 weeks. The sensitivity of different tissues to fractionation changes can be quantified through the α/β ratio in the linear-quadratic model. Dose-response analysis of PC patients treated with both external beam RT and brachytherapy has led to the hypothesis that the α/β ratio of PC is lower than for most other tumors and approaches a value characteristic of late responding tissues. Values between 1.2 and 3.9 Gy have been calculated. If the α/β ratio of PC is indeed low, then hypofractionating RT treatments can theoretically maintain high bioequivalent tumor doses, shorten overall treatment time and decrease late toxicities.The advantages in terms of patient convenience and treatment cost are obvious. There is level I evidence that shows that hypofractionated radiotherapy schedules have at least equivalent biochemical outcome with only a small increase in acute but not late toxicity when compared to conventional fractionation RT schedules. Results on different hypofractionation schedules have been reported, however the optimal hypofractionation is not clear so far. In this randomised trial we would like to compare 2 different radiotherapyschedules: 16 fractions à rato of 4 fractions a week versus 25 fractions à rato of 5 fractions a week. The incidence on acute toxicity and early late toxicity (i.e. within 2 year post radiotherapy) and the impact on quality of life will be registrated and compared. The study will be performed in 2 stages. For stage 1, sample size was calculated to rule out an upper limit of 40% of patients with RTOG grade 2 or worse bowel (GI) complications with an expected rate of 25%, based on a one-stage Fleming-A'Hern design. A power of 83.0% (alpha level 0.038 one-sided) was obtained when including 72 patients per group (144 patients in total). If 22 or more patients out of 72 had grade 2 or worse GI complications, then the study arm was to be rejected. To allow for a dropout of 10%, 160 patients were included in stage 1. Sample size for stage 2 was calculated analogously allowing ruling out an upper limit of 35% of patients with RTOG grade 2 or worse GI complications with an expected rate of 25%. When including 155 patients per group (310 in total) a power of 85.7% (alpha level 0.049 one-sided) was obtained. If 45 or more patients out of 155 had grade 2 or worse GI complications, then the study arm was to be rejected. The sample size for stage 1 and stage 2 combined was set at 346 (173 per group), with a 10% allowance for dropout.
