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.
The purpose of this research is to investigate whether addition of the EyeControl-Pro platform as an adjunct to standard guideline-based intensive care unit management of critically ill patients is effective in reducing delirium incidence and severity.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two dose schedules of stereotactic radiation therapy in patients with localized prostate cancer. Historically, external beam radiation to treat localized prostate cancer was given in small treatments over a period of multiple weeks. Recent studies have shown that with newer technologies and better understanding of how prostate cancer responds to radiation, the same effective dose can be given in as few as 5 treatments. This study is comparing this newer standard course of 5 treatments with an even shorter course of just 2 treatments. The dose for the 2 treatments is based on a form of internal radiation called brachytherapy, but in this study, that dose will be given using external radiation, without the need for invasive procedures. In order to make sure that the radiation therapy is given in a way that minimizes the risk of side effects to the surrounding organs, including the rectum and bladder, prior to radiation a hydrogel material will be inserted behind the prostate in order to distance the rectum further from the prostate gland, and small gold markers will be inserted into the prostate to decrease any possible movement during treatment. The main questions are whether 2-treatment radiation is tolerated as well and is as effective at treating prostate cancer, compared to the standard 5-treatment course of radiation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of BMS-986278 in Participants with Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Primary Mitochondrial diseases are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders caused by mutations in genes encoded by nuclear Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) or by mutations and/or deletions in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). While some mitochondrial disorders only affect a single organ (e.g., the eye in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy [LHON]), many involve multiple organs. Mitochondrial disorders may present at any age and a frequent feature is the increasing number of organs involved in the course of the disease. Minovia Therapeutics Ltd. ("Minovia") is a biotech company developing novel therapeutics based on its mitochondrial augmentation technology (MAT). MNV-201 is a cell therapy produced by MAT that consists of the participant's autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) enriched with allogeneic placental-derived mitochondria, manufactured in Minovia's GMP facility.
A prospective observational case-control study evaluating the effect of a weight loss intervention program on functional gastrointestinal disorders among overweight and obese children.
Observation of findings associated with AMD
This open-label, single-arm multi-center study studying the safety and efficacy of TXA127 on non-ambulant patients with DMD Cardiomyopathy will comprise of two phases: 1. 6-month open-label treatment phase: Male DMD patients with documented cardiomyopathy, will receive a daily subcutaneous injection of TXA127 0.5 mg/kg. Treatment will be provided for 6 months. Treatment safety will be assessed by collection and review of AEs, vital signs, ECGs, physical examinations, PFTs, and laboratory parameters on Day 1, Month 1, and Month 6. Ejection Fraction, upper extremity strength and biomarker levels will be assessed at these study visits as well. In addition, an abbreviated safety visit will be conducted at Month 3. 2. 12-month optional extension phase: Patients will continue the same study drug regime for an additional 12 months. The primary objective of this phase is to obtain long-term safety data. Efficacy data will also be collected. Safety, efficacy, and exploratory biomarkers will be assessed at Month 12 and Month 18, using the same methods as in the treatment phase. In addition, abbreviated safety visits will be conducted at Month 9 and Month 15.
Background: Cerebrovascular accident [CVA or commonly known as stroke] and traumatic brain injury (TBI) are common causes of morbidity, and motor impairments. Many stroke and TBI patients encounter severe functional impairments of their arm and/or hand. Recent studies have indicated that robotic training can improve upper limb function by enabling repetitive, adaptive, and intensive training. One type of robotic training is error enhancement during three-dimensional movements. The goal of this approach is to elicit better accuracy, stability, fluidity and range of motion during reaching. Previous research indicated the potential of robotic training with error enhancement as a viable clinical intervention for individuals facing motor deficits. Objectives: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new robotic system based on error enhancement and intended for rehabilitation of motor hand functions of post-stroke and TBI patients. Methods: A randomized, multi-center study with an open-label design. The study sample will consist of 96 participants who will be randomized into 2 separate groups. The intervention group consisting of 48 patients will receive training with the new robotic system, while the control group consisting of additional 48 patients will receive only standard practice treatments (with no exposure to the new robotic system). The outcomes of safety (adverse events and treatment tolerability), and efficacy (motor function, speed, tone, and spasticity) will be assessed and compared between the two groups. The assessment of the outcomes will be conducted at four different time points: (1) prior to the initiation of the four-week intervention, (2) after 2 weeks of intervention, (3) at the conclusion of the intervention, and (4) at a three-month follow-up session.
The goal of this current study is to evaluate the efficacy of treatment of postpartum patients with suspected retained products of conception (RPOC) with Misoprostol in reducing the frequency of postpartum RPOC compared to a control group of patients that will be managed expectantly, in a prospective randomized trial.
This is a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of MK-0616, an oral proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor, in participants with high cardiovascular risk. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of MK-0616 compared with placebo in increasing the time to the first occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including coronary heart disease (CHD) death, ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), acute limb ischemia or major amputation, or urgent arterial revascularization.
