There are about 9745 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Israel. 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 is a randomized, controlled, examiner-blind, 2-treatment parallel group study. The study will be conducted at the Hebrew University, Hadassah, Israel. A sufficient number of subjects will be screened to obtain approximately 200 generally healthy adult volunteers with mild to moderate periodontitis. Subjects will be stratified and randomly assigned equally to either the regimen group (AGE) or a control group (Placebo). Subjects will be requested to use the products at home for the duration of the study according to the written and verbal usage instructions given to them during product distribution. At Baseline, Month 6, 12, and 18 subjects will receive oral soft tissue exams, and will have gingival inflammation, bleeding, and periodontal measurements made as described in below. Both groups will receive supragingival dental prophylaxes every 6 month consistent with local norms and standards. Products will be re-supplied approximately every six months following Baseline. During study conduct, subjects with evidence of progressive periodontal disease (≥3 mm increases in pocket depth, attachment loss or recession) will be exited from the study and treated following local norms.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants from previous Merck pembrolizumab-based parent studies who transition into this extension study. This study will consist of three phases: 1) First Course Phase, 2) Survival Follow-up Phase or 3) Second Course Phase. Each participant will transition to this extension study in one of the following three phases, depending on the study phase they were in at the completion of the parent study. Participants who were in the First Course Phase of study treatment with pembrolizumab or lenvatinib in their parent study will enter the First Course Phase of this study and complete up to 35 doses or more every 3 weeks (Q3W) or 17 doses or more every 6 weeks (Q6W) of study treatment with pembrolizumab or a pembrolizumab-based combination or lenvatinib according to arm assignment. Participants who were in the Follow-up Phase in the parent study (post-treatment or Survival Follow-up Phase) will enter the Survival Follow-up Phase of this study. Participants who were in the Second Course Phase in their parent study will enter Second Course Phase of this study and complete up to 17 doses Q3W or 8 doses Q6W of study treatment with pembrolizumab or a pembrolizumab-based combination according to arm assignment. Any participant originating from a parent trial where crossover to pembrolizumab was permitted upon disease progression may be eligible for 35 doses as Q3W or 17 doses Q6W of pembrolizumab (approximately 2 years), if they progress while on the control arm and pembrolizumab is approved for the indication in the country where the potential eligible crossover participant is being evaluated.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic progressive neurological autoimmune disease, that gradually affects patient's quality of life. There are about 2.5 millions patients world wide, with an increasing cost Burdon. Up to date, it remains unclear who are the exact cells to initiate the disease. During the disease, the repertoire of cells expands and undergoes changes. The purpose of this study is to characterize those changes.
Urodynamic examination evaluates storage and empting phases of the urinary bladder. It enables the clinician to correlate physiologic findings to patients' complains. The data gathered during the examination divided to storage and empting. During the storage phase, bladder sensation is measured while the bladder is filled with sterile water. During years of practice, we noticed that early sensation (bladder over-sensitivity) is occasionally associated with bladder outlet obstruction (as demonstrated in the emptying phase of the examination.
Exosome plays an important role in the pathophysiology of the cardiovascular system. Since the field of cardiovascular exosome is still in its infancy, there are no available data regarding to its role in cardiac arrhythmias. The current study investigates the role of epicardial fat derived exosomes in patients who suffer from atrial fibrillation.
A stooped posture is one of the characteristic motor symptoms of patients with Parkinson's disease, and has been linked to impairments in ADL and QOL. We aimed to test the efficacy, safety, practical utility and user-friendliness of a posture correction and vibrotactile trunk angle feedback device (the UpRight) in the home setting of patients with Parkinson's disease with a stooped posture.
Kidney Magnetic Resonance assessment before and after undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement
Serum, synovial fluid and skin biopsies from patients will be collected to the biobank with rheumatoid diseases. These samples will later be used for clinical and basic research, following approval of each specific study by the IRB. The investigators intend to extract protein, DNA and RNA from each sample.
This is an extension study to evaluate safety and efficacy of ozanimod in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
This is a study to demonstrate the effect of oral ozanimod as maintenance therapy in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
