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 study evaluates the outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) success rate with modified luteal support - addition of a single injection of HCG and GnRH-agonist, on day of ET and 4 days later, respectively vs. traditional luteal support with vaginal progesterone only in ovulating women.
Patients will receive AZD9291 at a dose of 80 mg once daily. Systemic evaluation will be done by PET-CT scan after 6 weeks. In responding patients AZD9291 will be given orally 80 mg daily for 12 weeks. Non-responding patients will receive AZD9291 for the period of 6 or 12 weeks (according to the results of response assessment at each time-point).
The study will examine whether there is a difference in the frequencies of respiratory depression among obese women receiving spinal anesthesia combined with opioids compared to women with normal BMI. If such a risk exists further investigation will be required to establish the proper criteria for the administration of morphine with spinal anesthesia to obese women.
The objective of the study is to compare a new antibiotic protocol with the current prophylactic treatment in routine use and to evaluate obstetric and neonatal outcome: preterm labor, chorioamnionitis and early onset sepsis
The survival rate of cancer patients has greatly increased over the past decades' mainly due to early detection and the use of new medications with higher doses and combined protocols. This achievement comes with the price of cardio toxicity, leading to cardiac dysfunction ranged from transient asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction to cardiac death. In the long term, the risk of death from cardiovascular causes exceeds that of tumor recurrence for many types of cancer. As a result of the increasing number of long-term cancer survivors the magnitude of this problem is growing. Early identification of cardio toxicity can be identified by clinical follow-up and the use of electrocardiography, cardiac biomarkers (Troponin, brain natriuretic peptide) and echocardiogram. Past studies imply that the addition of angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor) and beta blockers to the patient's treatment may prevent the development of cardiac dysfunction. However, currently there are no specific or clear guidelines for the follow-up and management of cardio-toxicity in cancer patients. The aim of the study: To try to identify who are the patients at increased risk for developing cardio toxicity, by follow up of clinical evaluation, cardiac biomarkers and echocardiogram examination, in purpose of early diagnosis, management and prevention of cardiac events. For achieving this the investigators will build a registry which will include all the oncologic patients going an evaluation in the cardio-oncology clinic in the Tel Aviv Medical Center .
This study is designed to predict implantation of a fresh, high quality embryo in an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle by using ultrasound based uterine factors.
Ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is the fifth leading cause of cancer related deaths in the European Union. Tumor markers CA19-9 and carcinoembryonic antigen are important components in decision making and follow-up of patients diagnosed with this disease. These tumor markers were found to be elevated not only in the serum but also in other body fluids in patients with malignant lesions of the parotid gland and the urinary tract. The authors have described in a previews small preliminary study a positive and a strong linear correlation between the levels of CA19-9 in urine and saliva with those presented in the serum of patients with ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. The current study seeks to enlarge the study population to confirm the previous results and standardize the measured levels of CA19-9 in these body fluids.
This is a randomized controlled first in man study. Study purpose is to assess safety and efficacy of Composite Removable Stent Composite Stent implantation post-endoscopic sinus surgery in terms of: - Sinus tissue adhesions - Middle turbinate lateralization into nasal septum i.e. postoperative opening reduction - Inflammation
Evaluate the feasibility of an autologous cell preparation composed of a mixture of cells enriched for endothelial progenitor cells (EnEPCs) and multipotent adult hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) (BGC101), in the treatment of patients suffering from peripheral arterial disease (PAD) with critical limb ischemia (CLI) who have not responded to optimal pharmacological treatment or control of risk factors and/or had a revascularization failure, and do not have the option of further revascularization treatment.
Reduction of the indication for radiotherapy (RT) in newly diagnosed patients with classical Hodgkins lymphoma without compromising cure rates. Investigation of a chemotherapy intensification randomisation in intermediate and advanced classical Hodgkins lymphoma patients to compensate for reduction in RT.
