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.
NovellusDx technology identifies tumor-specific driver mutations, but unlike sequencing-based tests, NovellusDx has a functional assay that detects dis-regulated translocation of mutated signaling proteins to the nucleus. This allows NovellusDx to identify functionally-impactful driver mutations regardless of whether the mutation has previously been described or linked to a tumor type.
Our infertility unit has started a clinic for women with rheumatological diseases. those women are prone to infertility problems and it might be due to their illness or cytotoxic treatment . In our study we are going to observe the effect of their disease on ovarian reserve. we will assess it by using intravaginal sonography and blood test such as hormonal profile and anti-mullerian hormone (AMH).
First-line psychosocial treatments for anxiety disorders in children are largely exposure-based cognitive behavioral therapies (CBTs). Despite strong evidence supporting CBT's efficacy, for up to 50% of youth patients, symptoms of anxiety persist after a full course of treatment. What are the treatment options for these youth? Unfortunately, there is not a single empirical study in the youth anxiety treatment literature that has systematically examined treatment augmentation for youth who fail to respond to CBT. Empirical efforts to address this issue are important because youth who do not respond to CBT continue to suffer emotional distress and impairment associated with anxiety disorders. This study will address this gap via double-blind randomized controlled trial of Attention Bias Modification Treatment (ABMT) for anxious 10-18 year-olds who did not respond to standard CBT. Attention biases in threat processing have been assigned a prominent role in the etiology and maintenance of anxiety disorders. ABMT utilizes computer-based protocols to implicitly modify biased attentional patterns in anxious patients. Here, participants will be CBT non-responders who will be assessed by using clinical interviews and parent- and self-rated questionnaires before and after eight sessions of ABMT or placebo control, and again at an eight-week follow-up. We expect to see reduction in anxiety symptoms in the Attention Bias Modification Treatment (ABMT) group relative to the placebo control group. We also expect the findings to inform pathways to treatments for anxious children who do not respond to current standard first-line therapy, and to provide initial information on mechanisms of ABMT efficacy.
The goal of this laboratory research study is to learn if using molecular information (matched therapy) or not using molecular information and having the study doctor choose the therapy based on your past experience are more effective ways to choose the best cancer treatment for you. This is an investigational study. Up to 200 participants will take part in this study. Up to 50 will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is the most common urologic diagnosis in neonates estimated at 1% of newborns, and 30-45% of the children who present with urinary tract infection (1). Optional treatments of children with VUR include conservative therapy with or without prophylactic antibiotics, and endoscopic, laparoscopic, or open surgery. In an endoscopic technique, the injecting needle is inserted through the working channel of the cystoscope. The procedure is relatively short and is performed as out-patient surgery. In 2000, Dextranomer/Hyaluronic acid (DefluxR) was approved by the FDA, and subsequently has become the treatment of choice in VUR grades 2-4. In 2004, the hydrodistention-implantation technique (HIT) was introduced by Kirsch. HIT involves the use of a pressurized stream of fluid directed into the ureter to aid visualization, and injection into the submucosa within the ureteric tunnel to improve coaptation of the ureter (3). One of the disadvantages attributed to Deflux is the loss of 20% of the injected material over time (a result of absorption of the hyaluronic acid), which may explain the lower success rate of the endoscopic treatment of VUR compared with open surgery. In 2005, Polyacrylate Polyalcohol (VantrisR), a non- absorbable chemical preparation was introduced for endoscopic treatment of VUR, aiming to improve on the results of Deflux by preventing volume loss. Preliminary results of a three year follow-up using Vantris have shown high a level of reflux resolution(4). The aim of the current study is to compare the rate of resolution of the VUR using Deflux versus Vantris in bilateral VUR
Effect of biventricular upgrade on left ventricular reverse remodeling and clinical outcomes in patient in left ventricular dysfunction and intermittent or permanent apical/septal right ventricular pacing (Budapest CRT upgrade study)
The goal of the present study is to evaluate if addition of methotrexate can restore remission after loss of response to infliximab after dose escalation. another goal is to evaluate if low dose methotrexate can maintain remission achieved by regular dose methotrexate by 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to determine if adding dapagliflozin to insulin is a safe and effective therapy to improve glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of veliparib plus carboplatin and paclitaxel versus the Investigator's choice of standard chemotherapy in adults with metastatic or advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ibrutinib in combination with obinutuzumab compared to chlorambucil in combination with obinutuzumab based on the Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessment of progression free survival (PFS). Efficacy will be evaluated according to 2008 International Workshop for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IWCLL) criteria with the modification for treatment-related lymphocytosis, in subjects with treatment-naive CLL or SLL.
