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.
Evaluating whether forced diuresis with matched hydration will reduce the risk of contrast induced nephropathy in patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI).
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled dose response study, with an 8-week prospective baseline and an 18 week double-blind treatment period (including a 6-week titration phase and 12 week maintenance phase), followed by a 3-week blinded study drug taper period (for subjects leaving the study) or a 2-week blinded conversion period (for subjects who will participate in the open-label extension). The primary objective of this study is to determine the effective dose range of YKP3089 as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of partial seizures. The trial will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of YKP3089 in the partial epilepsy population.
The purpose of this preliminary experiment is to measure the effect of a novel ventilation system on the physiological strain during exercise in high heat load while wearing ballistic protective vest. Ten young and healthy participants will participate in the study. They will all go through a six days heat acclimation period in a heat chamber according to a valid protocol. Afterwards they will be randomly exposed to 4 conditions during four separate consecutive days.
The prevalence of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm among 65 years old individuals worldwide is 1-2%. when diagnosis is confirmed by abdominal Ultrasound the prevalence is 5.5% in men and 1% in women. As abdominal aortic aneurysm and coronary heart disease share common risk factors, patients with acute coronary syndrome represent a high risk population in which screening for another atherosclerotic site is recommended. Patients admitted for ACS undergo routinely TTE. during the same study, TTE may offer the opportunity to evaluate the cardiac morphology and function and to screen for Abdominal Aortic aneurysm. It was reported by different studies that the Sensitivity of this technique was between 91-96% for AAA screening. In addition, this method is cheap, available and requires only 2-3 minutes to be added to the standard TTE. we plan to examine patients admitted with ACS in our Intensive Care Unit for screening AAA by TTE in subcostal views in addition to the standard TTE examination.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Melatonin (in a dosage of 14mg daily) for a better clinical outcome in the period three days post stroke.
It is a phase I randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalating study to assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) data of 0.1% and 1.0% ZEP-3 cream, administered topically up to 5 consecutive treatment days in healthy volunteers. This is a single center trial. It is anticipated that the study will be conducted at the Department of Dermatology, at the Sheba Medical Center, Ramat Gan, Israel. The screening/enrollment visit includes a PK study for 24h following a single IP topical application. After a 24h washout time break, the subject will enter the treatment period for 5 consecutive treatment days followed by a follow up visit 1 and 5 days after end of treatment.
Prospective open label crossover self controlled study. The study population will randomly be divided into two groups. The study will take place in Lot Spa Hotel at the Dead Sea in two cycles (one of 16 participants and one of 14 participants) and will be comprised of 3 main stages: 1. Initial exposure to treatment for 14 days excluding Friday and Saturday (each of the two groups will have its own treatment protocol) 2. 12-month washout period 3. Crossover of the two groups and second exposure to treatment for 14 days excluding Friday and Saturday (each of the two groups will have its own treatment protocol). The population in the study will be composed of patients diagnosed and treated for rheumatoid arthritis at the Soroka University Medical Center who are 18 and above of age. The patients will be selected by the PI and his team and addressed regarding their willingness to participate in the study.
This study is an open label, non-randomized phase I single-armed study in women with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who have previously undergone all available standard chemotherapy regimens. The purpose of the study is to estimate the pharmacokinetics (PK) after single dose and multiple dose of BP-C1, investigate interleukin levels during BP-C1 treatment and assess treatment response according to RECIST criteria.
The purpose of this study is to compare subcutaneous Abatacept to placebo in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis
The investigators want to compeer BHCG levels after Methotrexate ( MTX). treatment for Ectopic pregnancy in days 4 and 7 after MTX. to day 10 . The hypothesis is that "BHCG" level in day 10 is the best indicator for treatment success , superior to day 4 and 7 . According to the investigators impression BHCG level rises in days 4 and 7 due to destruction of the trophoblast tissue , and only day 10 is an indicator for treatment success
