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 MRI perfusion imaging using arterial spin labeling (ASL)'s non-invasive technique (i.e. without injection of contrast medium) allows, thanks to recent technological improvement of the spatial resolution, measuring several perfusion parameter of the retinal tissue such as the regional Blood Flow (rBF) or the cerebral blood flow (cBF) expressed in ml/100g/min. Reliable application of ASL thus requires the precision and specificity of the MRI protocol to be tested.
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, triple blind, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of xevinapant with radiotherapy in older patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) of oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. Upon confirmation of eligibility, subjects will be enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to: - Arm A: 3 cycles of xevinapant (200 mg/day from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) + intensive modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) followed by 3 cycles of xevinapant in monotherapy phase (200 mg/day from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) - Arm B: 3 cycles of placebo (from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) + IMRT followed by 3 cycles of placebo in monotherapy phase (from Day 1 to 14, per cycle). Patients will be stratified by institution, disease location/p16 status (p16 positive oropharyngeal cancer, versus others), G8 score. Three strata for the G8 will be used (>14, versus 11-14 versus <11). Patients will undergo imaging in week 20 and upon clinical suspicion of progression/recurrence. Clinical examination will take place every 12 weeks in the first 3 years.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the influence of providing visual feedback on brushing technique and habits on oral health of patients undergoing periodontal treatment. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is patients' oral health improved by providing visual feedback on their brushing technique using the smartphone brushing app? - Is there behavioural change of patients based on this daily visual feedback? Participants will receive oral hygiene instructions after initial periodontal treatment and will be randomized in group 1, 2 or 3. Participants will be asked to - fulfill a brushing diary with the time of brushing every day. - come back for a check-up appointment every 3 weeks during the study to evaluate oral hygiene. Researchers will compare manual toothbrush, electric toothbrush without daily personal feedback and electric toothbrush with daily personal feedback to see if visual feedback provide improved oral health
The main objective of the trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of trimodulin as adjunctive treatment to standard of care (SoC) compared to placebo plus SoC in adult hospitalized subjects with sCAP on invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Other objectives are to determine detailed pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of trimodulin in a PK substudy and to determine its pharmacodynamic (PD) properties.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the recommended dose(s) of PYX-201 for participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) solid tumors.
Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is a bacterial respiratory infection that patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) often get when they cannot breathe for themselves and require mechanical ventilation. It is linked to higher chances of death, a longer stay in the hospital, higher costs, and the use of more antibiotics. Options to help prevent or treat this disease are in development and will require evaluation in future clinical trials. The goal of POS-VAP is to build and continuously train a network of ICUs to be prepared for doing these trials, to facilitate their execution.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the recommended dose(s) of PYX-106 in participants with relapsed/refractory solid tumors.
Neuromuscular blocking (NMB) agents are used in the vast majority of surgical interventions. Although pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data are available, there is a large interindividual variability in the time needed for recovery after neuromuscular blocking agents. In a previous study (NTC03550664) a mathematical model in order to estimate for each patient the time needed for full recovery based on the first measurable elements of train-of-four (TOF) recovery was established. After the first 14 TOF measurements, the estimated time to reach a recovery of 90%, expressed as % of recovery per 10 min, is calculated. In this study, this algorithm will be evaluated on a new cohort of patients in order to measure its accuracy and precision. Patients scheduled for surgery with a single dose of 0.6 mg/kg of rocuronium will be included in this prospective observational study. Neuromuscular transmission will be measured at the adductor pollicis using the TOFScan (IdMed, Marseille, France), a CE approved, commercially available monitor for neuromuscular transmission. TOF ratios will be measured every 30 s and recorded on a PC connected to the TOFScan. According to our algorithm, patients will be classified as slow, intermediate or fast recovery; speed of recovery will be measured as % of recovery per 10 min. A McNemar test will be used to assess the correct classification of patients in each group. Accuracy of the estimated speed of recovery will be assessed by comparing to the 95% confidence interval of our model. If real speed of recovery falls within the 95% confidence interval of the model, the model will be classified as accurate. These measurements will be done at 2 time points: - first estimation available and - after TOF ratio has recovered to 40%.
The purpose of this study is to compare event-free survival (EFS) in participants with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG)-naive high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC), including high-grade papillary Ta, any T1, or carcinoma in situ (CIS), between TAR-200 plus cetrelimab (Group A) and TAR-200 alone (Group C) versus intravesical BCG (Group B).
This study aims to compare the efficacy of vericiguat versus placebo on change in n-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) from baseline to Week 16. The primary hypothesis is Vericiguat is superior to placebo in reducing NT-proBNP at Week 16.
