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.
To evaluate the effect of wearing the 'Nike Free'Shoe on isokinetic muscle strength of foot and ankle and on proprioception the following protocol will be used. The test population consists out of students of the physical education department. They will at random be divided in three groups. One group will wear the shoe only for daily activities, the second group will wear the shoes for the warming up part of the sport classes and the control group will not wear the shoe at all. There will be two moments for evaluation: one at the beginning of the study and one after four months, during which the shoe will be used. The isokinetic strength will be measured with an isokinetic device (Biodex) and the proprioception will be evaluated with a force platform (Neurocom Balance Master).
The purpose of this study is to compare the BioMatrix Flex (Biolimus A9-Eluting) stent system with the Cypher SELECT (Sirolimus-Eluting) stent system in a non-inferiority trial.
The purpose of this study is to test an investigational drug, vinflunine (BMS-710485), in combination with gemcitabine in patients with Transitional Cell Carcinoma who cannot be treated with cisplatin. This study will help to determine whether vinflunine in combination with gemcitabine will extend the time period until further growth of the tumor more than gemcitabine alone.
The purpose of the study is to document the activity and safety of single agent amrubicin, amrubicin combined with cisplatin, and etoposide combined with cisplatin as first-line treatment in extensive disease small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to compare Overall Survival (OS), Progression Free Survival (PFS), objective tumor response rate, duration of response, and safety in patients treated with E7389 versus the Treatment of Physician's Choice (TPC) in patients with locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
Since influenza vaccines are normally administered every year because of the frequent change in their antigenic composition, the safety and immunogenicity profiles of the adjuvanted influenza vaccine need to be re-evaluated after repeated vaccine administration. In this study, subjects enrolled in a previous study will receive a booster dose with the 2006-2007 season's formulations of Fluarix or the adjuvanted vaccine.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the activity of XRP9881 in combination with trastuzumab. The secondary objectives are safety and pharmacokinetic interaction
A prospective randomized study to compare 2 groups: - heparine lock with positive pressure - lock without a needle with positive pressure
In this trial, patients with severe sepsis and low protein C levels will receive drotrecogin alfa (activated) at the normal, approved dose and time of administration [24 microgram/kilogram/hour (mcg/kg/hour) for 96 hours] or will receive the normal, approved dose or higher doses than the approved dose for a longer administration time. After the drug administration is complete, the protein C levels from the patients receiving the normal, approved dose will be compared to protein C levels from patients receiving the normal, approved dose or higher dose for a longer duration to determine if the protein C levels improve faster if given higher dose and/or longer administration time. Note: The protocol was amended to remove the option of shorter infusion durations.
Since influenza vaccines are normally administered every year because of the frequent change in their antigenic composition, the safety and immunogenicity profile of adjuvanted influenza vaccine need to be re-evaluated after repeated vaccine administration. In this study, subjects previously vaccinated with Fluarix or the influenza adjuvanted vaccine, will receive a booster dose with the 2006-2007 season's formulations of either Fluarix or the adjuvanted vaccine.
