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.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of methotrexate and cytarabine plus radiation therapy in treating patients who have primary CNS lymphoma.
RATIONALE: Antifungal therapy with voriconazole or amphotericin B may be an effective treatment for aspergillosis. It is not yet known whether voriconazole is more effective than amphotericin B in treating patients with aspergillosis. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of voriconazole with amphotericin B in treating patients with aspergillosis.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug and giving drugs in different ways may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether fluorouracil plus cisplatin are more effective than fluorouracil alone in treating patients with metastatic cancer of the pancreas. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of fluorouracil with or without cisplatin in treating patients who have advanced or metastatic cancer of the pancreas.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of MEN-10755 in treating adults who have recurrent or refractory solid tumors.
RATIONALE: Androgens can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using triptorelin may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of androgens. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of long-term hormone therapy and triptorelin with no further treatment in treating patients who have advanced prostate cancer previously treated with radiation therapy and 6 months of androgen suppression.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as BCG use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying four different regimens of BCG and comparing how well they work in treating patients who have undergone surgery for bladder cancer.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of paclitaxel in treating patients who have unresectable stage IIIB, stage IV or recurrent lung cancer.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of ecteinascidin 743 in treating adults with advanced solid tumors.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of docetaxel in treating patients with recurrent or refractory germ cell cancer.
RATIONALE: It is not yet known if treatment for recurrent ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer is more effective if it is begun when blood levels of CA 125 become elevated rather than waiting for other indicators of disease recurrence. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying early chemotherapy based on blood levels of CA 125 alone to see how well it works compared to chemotherapy based on conventional clinical indicators in patients with recurrent ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
