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 large phase III clinical study is studying the effect of vandetanib (ZACTIMA) in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Vandetanib is a new type of agent that targets the blood supply to a cancer tumour (through it's anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) properties) and the tumour cells themselves (through it's anti-endothelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) actions). This study will look at the effects of vandetanib in lung cancer patients who have had their cancer re-appear after treatment with standard chemotherapy. This clinical study will test if the vandetanib anti-VEGF and anti-EGFR characteristics can deliver longer improved progression free survival and improved overall survival than docetaxel (Taxotere) alone. All patients participating this clinical study will receive treatment with docetaxel, a commonly used treatment for recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. In addition, some patients will also receive vandetanib (ZACTIMA), an anti-EGFR / anti-VEGF agent. Recent clinical research shows that vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibition, when used with standard chemotherapy, can lead to increased survival in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Other research shows that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, like erlotinib (Tarceva) can also increase overall non-small cell lung cancer survival by killing tumour cells and stopping them from dividing.
Primary objective : - To compare disease-free survival after treatment with docetaxel in combination with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide to doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel in operable adjuvant breast cancer HER2neu negative patients with positive axillary lymph nodes. Secondary objectives : - To compare toxicity and quality of life between the 2 above-mentioned arms. - To evaluate pathologic and molecular markers for predicting efficacy.
To assess if nelfinavir has any clinically meaninful effect on cardiac function, namely ECG evaluation
The trial is conducted in Europe and Middle East. The aim of the trial is to compare the use of Insulin Detemir once or twice daily combined with mealtime Insulin Aspart against that of NPH Insulin once or twice daily combined with mealtime Insulin Aspart. The trial involves children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes.
This study will evaluate the effects of nadroparin on survival and disease progression in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC), locally advanced pancreatic cancer or non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC).
The primary objective of this study is to estimate the incidence of new-onset valvulopathy, determined by baseline and follow-up echocardiograms, in patients with Parkinson's Disease who are receiving pergolide as second-line therapy. The secondary objective of the study is to estimate the prevalence of valvulopathy, as determined by baseline echocardiograms, among all patients who have Parkinson's Disease and are being considered for pergolide as second-line therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intraocular pressure(IOP)-lowering efficacy of a combination IOP-lowering therapy in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A in treating overactive bladder in spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis patients.
This study is to assess the safety and efficacy of an add-on treatment algorithm with olmesartan, hydrochlorothiazide and amlodipine in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.
The three purposes of this study are the following: - To compare during a 6-month treatment the safety and effectiveness of idrabiotaparinux (SSR126517) with that of idraparinux (SR34006), taking into account new events of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and bleeding risk; - To compare the activities of idrabiotaparinux and idraparinux directly in blood during and after a 6-month treatment; - To check the ability of avidin (SSR29261) to reverse the blood thinning activity of idrabiotaparinux at the end of a 6-month treatment period.
