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 randomized, open label intra-patient dose escalation study to evaluate safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of BPS804 in adults with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). Pharmacodynamic effect will be determined by serological biomarkers and radiologic assessments. In addition, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) will be evaluated.
The Summary of product characteristics (SmPC) for QUTENZA advises that topical anaesthetic is applied prior to the application of QUTENZA. This is a multi-center, randomized, assessor-blinded study which will investigate the use of an oral analgesic as an alternative form of pre-treatment for QUTENZA.
The purpose of this study in healthy people is to evaluate safety, toleration and time course of plasma concentration of single inhaled doses of PF-05212372.
Aim of the present randomized controlled multinational trial is the comparison of a novel biofeedback system on sodium profiling applied to a endogenous hemodiafiltration therapy, with the standard (no sodium profiling) hemodiafiltration technique on the intradialytic overall and cardiovascular stability.
We recently reported the superiority of the natural cycle to a natural cycle controlled by the administration of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for planning the frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles, demonstrating a probable negative impact of exogenous hCG on endometrial receptivity.Based on the above findings we conducted the first prospective study that assesses whether there is a difference in pregnancy rate after intrauterine insemination (IUI) in a natural cycle with spontaneous luteinizing hormone (LH) rise compared to natural cycles controlled by hCG for final ovulation.
There is experimental evidence that low levels of adiponectin are associated with more reperfusion injury. In addition experimental studies have demonstrated that endothelial progenitor cells may have a favorable effect on remodeling, mainly through stimulation of neo-revascularisation. Clinical data on these issues are lacking. This clinical project studies the role of adiponectin, endothelial progenitor cells and endothelial microparticles in the ischaemia-reperfusion process and the compensatory ventricular remodelling in a population of 250 infarction patients treated with primary PCI. If the role of these factors could be confirmed in this clinical setting, those factors might represent a new target for therapeutic interventions in AMI patients.
During thyroid surgery the laryngeal recurrent nerves (and for this reason the voice quality) are at risk. Therefore intra operative continuous neuromonitoring could help to prevent harm to these nerves. Electromyographic data (EMG values) are collected during surgery (1). In the postoperative follow-up period detailed voice analysis is performed (2): subjective auditive perceptive evaluation and videostroboscopy. Analysis and comparison of (1) and (2) will be performed in order to find out if we can find a predictive correlation between the EMG data (1) and the voice quality (2).
Study hypothesis: Is Alhydran gel-cream as efficient as silicone gel for skin occlusion and hydration? For this study 16 volunteers and ten patients with healed full thickness burns will be included. After a short period of acclimatization four test areas will be determined. For healthy volunteers the standard zones are located on the inner forearm, two on each forearm. For patients with healed burns the 4 test zones are located on either the healed donor site or the healed skin grafted area. In each test zone baseline measurements will be taken before application of the products.After application of the three silicone gels and the hydrating gel cream the trans epidermal water loss (TEWL) and the moisture content of the stratum corneum will be measured by using the TEWAmeter®TM300 and the Corneometer® CM825 (Courage & Khazaka).
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate puncture site complication rate as well as the short- and long-term (up to 24 months) outcome of treatment by means of Astron Pulsar / Astron Pulsar-18 stent implantation in symptomatic (Rutherford 2-4) femoro-popliteal arterial stenotic or occlusive lesions, using 4F compatible devices of BIOTRONIK and without the use of a closure device. The hypothesis is that the primary patency at 12 months is non-inferior to the primary patency obtained in the Durability study (72.2%).
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the superior efficacy and non-inferior safety of the Moxy Drug Coated Balloon by direct comparison to standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) catheter for treatment of stenosis of the femoropopliteal arteries.
