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 goal of this interventional study is to learn about the effects of different positions on the occurrence, regional distribution and reversibility of atelectasis by using a PulmoVista 500 monitor (Dräger. 23542 Lübeck), during general anesthesia with mechanical ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are: - The increase in atelectasis after induction of general anesthesia in supine and Trendelenburg position compared with baseline (spontaneous breathing) - The eventual possibility of reversal of atelectasis caused by general anesthesia and Trendelenburg position by reverse Trendelenburg position and recruitment manœuvre. Participants will be adult, autonomous and able to express their will, undergoing elective gynecological or urological surgery in the extended Trendelenburg position.
A registry of individuals with type 1 diabetes that visited the Department of Endocrinology of the University Hospitals of Leuven is established. The objective of this registry is to phenotype patients with type 1 diabetes and obesity and their response to treatment with regard to their outcomes
To study the efficacy and safety of intravaginal CO2 laser versus intravaginal Er:YAG laser and sham application in alleviating genitourinary symptoms in patients receiving an aromatase inhibitor as adjuvant treatment of breast cancer
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. A number of treatments are available for adults with migraine but there are limited approved treatments available for pediatric participants. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy (how well treatment works) of a low-dose and high-dose of atogepant in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17. Atogepant is a medicine currently approved to treat adults with episodic migraine (0 to 14 migraine days per month) and is being studied in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17 with a history of episodic migraine. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study of atogepant in participants with a history of episodic migraine with an open-label pharmacokinetic substudy. Eligible participants will be randomized into 6 different groups. Participants between the ages of 12 and 17 will be randomized to receive placebo, low-dose atogepant, or high-dose atogepant for 12 weeks. Participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will also be randomized to receive placebo, low-dose atogepant, or high-dose atogepant for 12 weeks. The specific atogepant doses to be used in participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will be determined after the PK substudy is complete. Around 450 participants will be enrolled in approximately 100 sites. Placebo, low-dose atogepant, and high-dose atogepant are given as a tablet to take by mouth once a day. At the end of Week 12, participants will either undergo a follow-up visit 4 weeks after last study treatment or join an extension study where they can continue to receive atogepant for another 52 weeks. There may be a bigger responsibility for participants in this study. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effects of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
Central post-stroke pain (CPSP) is an often pharmacorefractory type of neuropathic pain that develops in 8% of stroke patients. CPSP has been treated with three distinct types of neuromodulation (deep brain stimulation of the sensory thalamus (Vc-DBS), motor cortex repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (M1-rTMS), and motor cortex stimulation (MCS)), but the level of evidence for these procedures is very low. Moreover, data on the changes in pain brain circuitry in CPSP, and the effect of neuromodulation on this circuitry is very limited.
Exercise therapy has been shown to be effective in decreasing pain and improving function for patients with recurrent low back pain (LBP). Research on the mechanisms that trigger and/or underlie the effects of exercise therapy on LBP problems is of critical importance for the prevention of recurring or persistence of this costly and common condition. One factor that seems to be crucial within this context is the dysfunction of the back muscles. Recent pioneering results have shown that individuals with recurring episodes of LBP have specific dysfunctions of these muscles (peripheral changes) and also dysfunctions at the cortical level (central changes). This work provides the foundation to take a fresh look at the interplay between peripheral and central aspects, and its potential involvement in exercise therapy. The current project will draw on this opportunity to address the following research questions: What are the immediate (after a single session) and the long-term effects (after 18 repeated sessions) of exercise training on: (1) back muscle structure; (2) back muscle function; (3) the structure of the brain; (4) and functional connectivity of the brain. This research project also aims to examine whether the effects are dependent on how the training was performed. Therefore a specific versus a general exercise program will be compared.
The NAGOMI COMPLEX PMCF (Post-Market Clinical Follow-up) study has been designed to expand the knowledge about outcomes with the Ultimaster Nagomi™ sirolimus eluting coronary stent system (Ultimaster Nagomi™) in complex PCI subjects. The features for a complex PCI are based upon subgroup analysis of earlier published studies.
The purpose of this follow-up study is to describe the safety in subsequent pregnancies in participants who were previously administered the RSVPreF3 maternal vaccine or control during any prior RSV MAT study. The study participants enrolled in this follow-up study received RSVPreF3 maternal vaccination (any dose) or controls during the following prior RSV MAT studies: RSV MAT-001 (NCT03674177), RSV MAT-004 (NCT04126213), RSV MAT-010 (NCT05045144), RSV MAT-011 (NCT04138056), RSV MAT-009 (NCT04605159), RSV MAT-012 (NCT04980391) and RSV MAT-039 (NCT05169905). No intervention will be administered in this study. The exposure was the intervention (either RSVPreF3 vaccine or control) received by the study participants in the above-mentioned prior RSV MAT studies.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rocatinlimab in monotherapy and combination therapy treatment in adolescent subjects.
Purpose of this study is to determine the value of liquid biopsies, e.g. testing of minimal residual disease (MRD) by using liquid biopsies to measure circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) at diagnosis and during the multimodal and multidisciplinary curative-intent treatment of resectable esophageal cancer.
