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 reason for this study is to see if the study drug selpercatinib is safe and more effective compared to a standard treatment in participants with rearranged during transfection (RET)-mutant medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. Participants who are assigned to the standard treatment and discontinue due to progressive disease have the option to potentially crossover to selpercatinib.
Patients in need of a single implant in the premaxilla and presenting with a horizontal buccal soft tissue defect at the single tooth gap will be invited to participate in a multicenter RCT. Prior to surgery, a small-field low-dose CBCT is taken since a buccopalatal bone dimension of at least 6 mm at the central and crestal aspect of the single tooth gap is required to ensure complete embedding of an implant by bone. Sixty patients will be randomly allocated to the test group or control group in 6 centers. Each center receives 10 sealed envelopes (5 are internally labelled with 'test group' and 5 with 'control group'). For each patient a digital planning is performed in implant planning software and a tooth-supported surgical guide is fabricated. In the control group, a single implant is placed following flap elevation and surgical guide installation. Then, a CTG from the palate is positioned under the buccal mucosa to thicken the tissues. A provisional restoration is placed at the day of surgery, which is replaced by a permanent one 3m later. Patients in the test group are treated in the same way, yet a CM (Fibro-Gide®) is used instead of a CTG. Changes in the buccal soft tissue profile are registered over time by superimposing intra-oral scans in SMOP® software. Secondary outcomes included clinical, aesthetic and patient-reported outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of treatment with definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT) + pembrolizumab (MK-3475) compared to treatment with dCRT + placebo with respect to Event-free Survival (EFS) and Overall Survival (OS) in: - participants whose tumors express Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Combined Positive Score (CPS) ≥10 - participants whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS ≥1 - all participants The primary study hypotheses are that dCRT+ pembrolizumab is better than dCRT + placebo with respect to: - EFS in participants whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS ≥10 - EFS in participants whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS ≥1 - EFS in all participants - OS in participants whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS ≥10 - OS in participants whose tumors express PD-L1 CPS ≥1 - OS in all participants
This Phase 3 study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of mirvetuximab soravtansine vs. investigator's choice chemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer, whose tumors express a high-level of FRα. Patients will be, in the opinion of the Investigator, appropriate for single-agent therapy for their next line of therapy. Folate receptor alpha (FRα) positivity will be defined by the Ventana FOLR1 (FOLR1-2.1) CDx assay.
The purpose of this two part multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alpelisib compared to alpelisib matching-placebo in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab as maintenance treatment of patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer whose tumor harbors a PIK3CA mutation following induction therapy with a taxane in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab. Part 1 is the open-label, safety run-in part of the study, designed to confirm the recommended phase 3 dose (RP3D) dose of alpelisib in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab. Following Part 1, Part 2 will be initiated, which is the randomized, Phase III part of the study.
To describe the difference in patient reported outcomes after conservative treatment in comparison to radical rectal surgery in patients with deep endometriosis infiltrating the rectum (up to 15cm from the anus with at least involvement of the muscularis layer) and to determine predictors for radical surgery.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of nemolizumab (CD14152) in participants with prurigo nodularis (PN).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of the 9-valent human papillomavirus (9vHPV) vaccine in men 20 to 45 years of age. The primary hypothesis tested after the primary database lock is that administration of a 3-dose regimen of 9vHPV vaccine will reduce the incidence of HPV 16/18/31/33/45/52/58-related oral persistent infection (6 months or longer) compared with placebo. There will also be an Extension Study to offer an opportunity to complete the 3 dose regimen of 9vHPV vaccine for participants who received placebo in the Base Study, or received less than 3 doses of 9vHPV vaccine in the Base Study.
The reason for this study is to see if the study drug selpercatinib compared to a standard treatment is effective and safe in participants with rearranged during transfection (RET) fusion-positive non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to other parts of the body. Participants who are assigned to the standard treatment and discontinue due to progressive disease have the option to potentially crossover to selpercatinib.
To elucidate confounding factors in ocular surface microbiome research and to confirm the presence of a core ocular surface microbiome and its temporal stability.
