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.
A proportion of prostate cancer (PCa) patients develop relapse following curative local treatment. Regional nodal recurrence is an emerging clinical situation since the introduction of new molecular imaging methods in the restaging of recurrent prostate cancer. More specifically, a subgroup of these patients is being diagnosed with a recurrence confined to the regional lymph nodes and limited in number (oligorecurrence) using choline or PSMA PET-CT. As there are no specific treatment recommendations for these type of patients, different treatment approaches are currently used, mostly focusing on local ablative treatments using radiotherapy or surgery. These treatments are coined metastasisdirected therapy (MDT). MDT in combination with or without temporary ADT could delay the subsequent risk of progression, and even cure limited regional nodal recurrences. Consequently, lifelong palliative ADT, with its toxicity and excess in non-cancer mortality might be postponed. The proposed trial randomizes patients with oligorecurrent nodal prostate cancer following primary PCa treatment to either metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) (salvage lymph node dissection, sLND or stereotactic body radiotherapy, SBRT) or MDT plus whole pelvis radiotherapy (WPRT: 45 Gy in 25 fractions).
This is a multi-center, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of tisagenlecleucel in adult patients with relapsed or refractory FL.
This is a prospective, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized Phase 3 study. The purpose of the study is to obtain evidence of efficacy for maintenance selinexor in participants with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. Participants with primary stage IV or recurrent disease who are in partial or complete response after having completed a single line of at least 12 weeks of taxane-platinum combo therapy will be randomized in a 2:1 manner to maintenance therapy with 80 milligram (mg) with selinexor once weekly (QW) or placebo until progression.
This 2-part study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) compared to placebo in participants with surgically resected high-risk Stage II melanoma. Participants in Part 1 will receive either pembrolizumab or placebo in a double-blind design every 3 weeks (Q3W) for up to 17 cycles/~1 year (each cycle = 21 days). Participants who complete the initial treatment of 17 cycles of pembrolizumab in Part 1 and experience disease recurrence may be eligible for re-challenge with pembrolizumab at the same dose and schedule of 200 mg Q3W (21-day cycles) for up to 35 cycles (up to ~2 years) in Part 2 in an open label design. Participants who complete the initial treatment of placebo and experience disease recurrence may be eligible to switch over to pembrolizumab 200 mg Q3W (21-day cycles) for up to 35 cycles (up to ~2 years) in Part 2 in an open label design. The primary hypothesis of this study is that pembrolizumab increases recurrence-free survival (RFS) compared to placebo. Per protocol, response/ progression or adverse events (AEs) during re-challenge/switch-over in Part 2 will not be counted towards the RFS outcome measure or safety outcome measures respectively.
Both drug-coated balloon and stents have been used for a number of years to treat subjects with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) and are recognized as very good treatment methods. However, due to a higher risk of blood clot formation, requiring a longer anticoagulant treatment, and the challenge of treating re growth of tissue extending through the metal mesh of the stent, the physicians try to reserve stent placement to situation where it's really needed, in case of flow-limiting vessel dissection or acute re-narrowing. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the utility of several procedural diagnostic techniques in helping the physicians to better decide whether a stent is needed or not. The study will also estimate the safety and efficacy of Passeo-18 Lux drug-coated balloon associated to Pulsar 18 bare metal stent when and where needed to treat PAD
The aim of this study is to analyse biomarkers in first-void urine for improved follow-up of women treated for high grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN).
Blinatumomab is a new active bispecific monoclonal antibody for treatment of lymphoid malignancies, including ALL (acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia ) whose activity for remission induction needs to be explored in combination with standardized treatment in order to improve outcome of this disease which is still lethal in most adult patients. Ultimate proof of efficacy resides in an increase of reaching MRD ( minimal residual disease) negativity, prolongation of that response, and long-term survival. Since hematological response rate in adult ALL is high already and defining long-term survival in a large clinical trial takes many years, this trial aims to improve the strength of the MRD response as defined by achieving complete MRD negative response (ie, < 10^-4) after the first consolidation phase including blinatumomab. This MRD response will be assessed by Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RQ-PCR) analysis of patient-specific Ig/TCR (T-cell receptor ) gene rearrangements. When MRD data are missing, MRD positivity will be assumed. Although younger (up to 40 years of age) patients are treated more intensively than older patients (older than 40 years of age), the investigational questions concerning blinatumomab can be examined in both subgroups as both younger and older patients receive the same type of chemotherapy courses with dose adjustments for chemotherapeutic agents only for patients above 60 years of age.
This study is designed to identify the target Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) population(s) that overexpress c-Met (c-Met+) best suited for telisotuzumab vedotin therapy in the second line or third line setting (Stage 1) and then to expand the group(s) to further evaluate efficacy in the selected population(s) (Stage 2). After the Stage 2 global enrollment is completed, an additional cohort at an alternate dose level will evaluate the safety and efficacy of telisotuzumab vedotin (Stage 3).
This is an open-label, single arm, multicenter, dose finding, Phase Ib study in order to assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) for this combination treatment and to evaluate the general safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of this combination treatment in adult patients. This study includes an additional open-label imaging feasibility sub-study using a tracer in adult participants with relpased/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma to image CD8+T-cells at baseline and after treatment with glofitamab, including pre-treatment with obinutuzumab.
This is an Open-label, Non-Randomized, Multi-Center Extension Study. Eligible subjects will have previously completed a pegcetacoplan study.
