There are about 5241 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Hungary. 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.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. The incidence and prevalence of AF increase exponentially with increasing age and AF is associated with higher mortality, more frequent hospitalization, and lower quality of life. Furthermore, AF is often associated with heart failure. The majority of AF is initiated by ectopic foci found primarily in the pulmonary veins. It was shown that catheter ablation of those veins could eliminate episodes of AF. In patients with heart failure, catheter ablation could improve cardiac function, symptoms and quality of life. It remains still unknown whether AF ablation is more effective than conventional treatment in terms of mortality and morbidity.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of 2.0 mg exenatide once weekly and insulin glargine, titrated to glucose targets using the algorithm described by Yki- Järvinen et al.(2007), with respect to glycemic improvements, body weight, fasting lipids, safety, and tolerability.
The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of BI 1356 (Linagliptin) (5 mg / once daily) compared to placebo given for 24 weeks as initial combination therapy with pioglitazone 30 mg in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with insufficient glycaemic control.
The purpose of this study is to determine if MDX-1342 given in combination with Methotrexate is a safe treatment for patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. In addition, changes in the severity patients' arthritis will also be analysed.
Heparin is the reference therapy for most patients with pulmonary embolism. Some patients with sub-massive pulmonary embolism defined by normal blood pressure and dysfunction of the right ventricle have a higher mortality risk. It has been suggested that thrombolytic treatment, a drug that dissolves blood clots more rapidly, may reduce the mortality in those patients. The studies reported to date were unable to confirm or refute this hypothesis because the number of patients included in those studies is too low. The aim of the study is to compare thrombolytic treatment with heparin (which is the reference therapy for pulmonary embolism) in a large group of patients with sub-massive pulmonary embolism.
This is a phase 3 study to compare the clinical benefit of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone with placebo plus prednisone in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) who have failed one or two chemotherapy regimens. At least one of the previous chemotherapies must have contained docetaxel.
Collection of the data on the safety and efficacy of the once daily administration of the alfuzosin preparation /Alfetim Uno® l0 mg/ at patients with lower urinary tract symptoms/complaints rendering possible the presence of benign prostatic hyperplasia, in the course of everyday practice
This study is a phase III, double-masked, randomized, study of the efficacy and safety of VEGF Trap-Eye in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Approximately 1200 patients will be randomized in Europe, Asia, Japan, Australia and South America.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety profile of C2L-OCT-01 PR for up to an additional 96-week period in acromegalic patients who completed the C2L-OCT-01 PR-301 study.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of two diets with different glycemic index and fibre content on glucose metabolism and plasma lipid profile of 80 adolescents in 4 European centres. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the effects of the two standardized diets on selected hormones and variables linked to inflammatory status.
