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 Open-label extension study in patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis who completed protocol AC-052-321 / BUILD 3 (NCT00391443) will asses the long term safety and tolerability of bosentan in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Primary objective: Comparison of independently assessed progression free survival (PFS) in subjects administered Bevacizumab + Temsirolimus vs. those administered Bevacizumab + Interferon-Alfa. Secondary objectives: safety, Investigator assessed PFS, objective response rate (independently assessed), and overall survival.
Study of the effect of lactisole on glucose uptake
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of 26 weeks treatment with inhaled mannitol in subjects with cystic fibrosis. Previous studies have demonstrated improvements in lung function, mucociliary clearance, changes in physical properties of mucus, 24 hour sputum weight and quality of life. The results of this study are to further investigate and confirm these findings in addition to examine the effect on antibiotic use and chest infections. It is hypothesised that inhaled mannitol will have beneficial effects compared to a control treatment. An open label phase of 26 weeks duration will follow the blinded 26 week phase. During the open label phase all subjects will receive active treatment.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving them after surgery may kill any tumor cells remaining after surgery. It is not yet known whether docetaxel is more effective than ixabepilone when given after surgery and combination chemotherapy in treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying giving combination chemotherapy followed by docetaxel or ixabepilone to compare how well they work in treating patients who have undergone surgery for nonmetastatic breast cancer.
A clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of solifenacin in patients with bladder symptoms due to spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis
The aim of the study is to define preferential sites of tumour recurrence by observing tracer uptake in the tumour in sequential PET images with 18F-fluoromethylcholine (and perfusion MR, see also below). Changes in the intensity of the tracer uptake in the tumour during and after the course of radiotherapy will be correlated with the site of tumour recurrence as will be assessed by conventional MRI. In due time, these results must enable clinicians to change their therapeutic approach of high-grade glioma.
THAOS is a global, multi-center, longitudinal observational survey open to all patients with transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR), including ATTR-PN (polyneuropathy), ATTR-CM (cardiomyopathy) and wild-type ATTR-CM. It is open-ended with a minimum duration of 10 years. Patients will be followed as long as they are able to participate. The principal aims of this outcome survey are to better understand and characterize the natural history of the disease by studying a large and heterogenous patient population. Survey data may be used to develop new treatment guidelines and recommendations, and to inform and educate clinicians about the management of this disease.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 2 doses of drug AZD2281 against liposomal doxorubicin to see which is effective and well tolerated in treating patients with measurable BRCA1- or BRCA2-positive advanced ovarian cancer and who have failed previous platinum therapy.
Parkinson's Disease is a major neurodegenerative disorder in which there is a progressive loss of dopamine-containing neurons. The understanding that PD is a syndrome of dopamine (DA) deficiency led to the introduction in the clinical practice of L-dopa, a precursor of DA that crosses the blood brain barrier, and also to the use of selective inhibitors of MAO-B, the major DA metabolising enzyme in man. Safinamide is an inhibitor of MAO-B. This is a phase III trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of safinamide (50 and 100 mg p.o. q.a.m.) compared to placebo as add-on therapy to a stable dose to levodopa in subjects with advance idiopathic Parkinson's Disease. The principal efficacy measure is the increase in mean daily "on" time during the 18-hr diary recording period.
