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.
Patients with a locally advanced or metastatic (i.e., there are already metastases of the diagnosed tumor in the body outside the primary lesion) soft tissue sarcoma will be recruited for this study. The minimum age to enter the study is 60 years. Therapy with doxorubicin is the mainstay of palliative chemotherapy for these patients, which is associated with hematological toxicity and an increase of the infection rate. Pazopanib is known to rarely induce hematological toxicity or to trigger infection. We therefore assume that pazopanib exerts similar activity while decreasing neutropenia and neutropenic fever. Pazopanib is already approved in the U.S. and Europe for the treatment of advanced soft tissue sarcoma. Doxorubicin and pazopanib will be randomly allocated to either receive doxorubicin or pazopanib in a phase II clinical trial. The aim of this study is to measure the treatment effect (reduction in tumor size or tumor stabilization) for both drugs, as well as the survival rate, and the duration of tumor control by the different therapies. A further objective is to measure the quality of life by standardized questionnaires throughout the course of treatment.
Evaluation of headache response at 2 hours for active treated attacks for increasing dose.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the systemic exposure to ibuprofen after single oromucosal administration of the test product V0498 and single oral administration of a reference product.
The study is designed to analyze the pathological tumor response on resected colorectal cancer metastases after preoperative treatment with bevacizumab combined with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI regimen in a prospective cohort and to correlate this response with patient's outcome.
Dose Escalation part of the study: To estimate the MTD(s) and/ or RP2D of LEE011 in combination with everolimus + exemestane, and LEE011 in combination with exemestane, and to characterize the safety and tolerability of the combinations of everolimus + exemestane + LEE011 and LEE011 + exemestane in patients with ER+ HER2- advanced breast cancer Dose Expansion part of the study: To characterize the safety and tolerability of the triplet combination of LEE011 + everolimus + exemestane in patients naïve or refractory to CDK4/6 inhibitor based therapy, and the safety and tolerability of the doublet combination of LEE011 + exemestane in patients refractory to CDK4/6 inhibitor based therapy (except patients treated with prior LEE011 are not allowed in Group 3).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of CNTO 136 (sirukumab) in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are unresponsive to treatment with modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or anti-TNF alpha agents.
ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) has been largely demonstrated to be effective in multiple bilio-pancreatic indications. However, one of the feared complication of this technique is acute pancreatitis, which happens in 5 to 25% of cases. Some patient groups have been demonstrated to present a higher risk linked to individual factors or to the procedure. Some interventions (endoscopic or pharmacologic) have been evaluated to reduce the incidence of this complication but each has his own inconvenient. Recently, the activation of heme oxygenase (HO) by intraperitoneal administration of hemin has been demonstrated to be effective in prevention and treatment of acute pancreatitis mice models. This protective effect has been associated to intrapancreatic HO-1 positive macrophage recruitment activated by hemin. The investigators thus propose to conduct a prospective randomized double blind controlled trial to demonstrate a protective effect of hemin administration against post-ERCP acute pancreatitis in high risk patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if ibrutinib administered in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) improves the clinical outcome in newly diagnosed patients with non-germinal center B-cell subtype (GCB) of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) selected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or newly diagnosed patients with activated B cell-like (ABC) subtype of DLBCL identified by gene expression profiling (GEP) or both populations.
The study objective is to compare the CBCT images generated by the CS 9300 to those generated by conventional CT.
The objective of this NIS is to assess in a real-life setting, usage patterns and associated outcomes in the management (healthcare resource utilisation and associated costs) of patients with non-valvular AF treated with Xarelto, in accordance with the terms of the European marketing authorization and the Belgian reimbursement criteria.
