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 longitudinal study in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) carriers of a genetic mutation - substitution of gly with ser in position 2019 (G2019S) in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene. The purpose of this study is to explore the association between genetic mutations in the known genes and their influence on disease manifestation over few years of follow up
This study is being carried out to determine the effect of dapagliflozin on cardiovacular outcomes when added to current background therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes with either established cardiovacular disease or cardiovascular risk factors.
The purpose of this phase Ib clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of the combination of INC424 and BKM120 in the myelofibrosis population and to establish the maximum tolerated dose and or the Recommended Phase II dose of the combination guided by the Bayesian dose escalation model. INC424 has shown efficacy in myelofibrosis (MF) and is approved in the US and EU for the treatment of MF. BKM120 is a PI3K inhibitor. Preclinical and early clinical experience support inhibition of the PI3K/mTOR pathway in MF as aberrant activation of the pathway has been observed in MF models and may contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease.
Schizophrenia is a chronic debilitating mental disorder, characterised by a relapsing remitting course. Although anti-psychotics can prevent relapse, its effect on schizophrenia outcome remains very limited, mainly due to very poor adherence to medications by the patients. This study aims to find, whether the add-on of remote monitoring of medication compliance via tele-medicine, to routine out-patient clinic care, can improve patients adherence and reduce the risk of relapse.
The purpose of this prospective, observational cohort study is to evaluate the incidence of adverse events of special interest (AESI) and effectiveness in participants with active, autoantibody-positive SLE treated with and without BENLYSTA (belimumab). Participants will be enrolled into 1 of 2 cohorts: (1) BENLYSTA cohort: participants receiving or initiating BENLYSTA plus standard of care (SOC) at Baseline; (2) comparison cohort: participants not receiving BENLYSTA but receiving SOC at Baseline. After enrollment, changes in lupus medications, including starting or stopping BENLYSTA, are at the discretion of the physician, and all participants will continue to be followed regardless of changes in their lupus medicines until study completion. All participants will be assessed for AESI including serious infections, opportunistic infections and other infections of interest, malignancies, selected serious psychiatric events and mortality. Data will be collected at enrollment and at 6 month intervals for 5 years. BENLYSTA is a registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) group of companies.
The purpose of the proposed study is to examine the phenomenon of suicidality in old age and its unique characteristics. This will be performed through observing the multigenerational aging family from the life-course perspective, which enables the researchers to address life transitions, including crises leading to suicidal tendencies.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and tolerability of a novel dietary intervention for early CD based on partial enteral nutrition, and to compare it to the gold standard but difficult to implement dietary intervention- Exclusive enteral nutrition with Modulen .
This study will test that hypothesis that endoscopic lung volume reduction therapy performed using emphysematous lung sealant treatment can be improved using smaller doses delivered to more a larger number of treatment sites.
The European study, LINES 2009 (Low and Intermediate Risk Neuroblastoma European Study), groups together in a single protocol the treatment of all patients with "non high risk" neuroblastoma (NB), with stratification into two groups: low risk and intermediate risk. These two separate cohorts are included in one single protocol to enable patient data from these two groups to be entered into a common database, as the current prognostic classifications determining treatment may evolve further with subsequent more detailed molecular analysis of the tumours. 1. LOW RISK STUDY The Low Risk Study is proposed in order to: - minimise the amount of treatment (chemotherapy and surgery) for all appropriate low risk patients, who in previous studies have been shown to have an excellent long-term outcome (as in the SIOPEN 99.1-2 infant neuroblastoma studies where the overall survival was greater than 97%(H. Rubie, JCO). - improve the EFS and maintain the OS (overall survival) in L2 and Ms patients with a SCA(Segmental Cromosomal Aberration) genomic profile tumour (presence of any segmental chromosomal change (SCA)) by electively treating these patients with chemotherapy despite the absence of symptoms. 2) INTERMEDIATE RISK STUDY The Intermediate Risk Study is proposed in order to: - reduce the amount of chemotherapy for differentiating histology INRG (International Neuroblastoma Risk Group) stage L2 NB and ganglioneuroblastoma nodular patients who in previous SIOPEN study have been shown to have an excellent long-term outcome; - increase the amount of treatment (radiotherapy and 13-cis-RA (13-cis-Retinoic Acid) for poorly differentiated or undifferentiated histology INRG stage L2 NB or ganglioneuroblastoma nodular patients in order to improve the EFS registered in the previous SIOPEN study; - improve the EFS (Event Free Survival) of MYCN (V-Myc myelocytomatosis viral related oncogene, NB derived ,avian )amplified INSS (International NB Staging System) stage 1 NB patients with the introduction of adjuvant treatment; - maintain the very good results obtained in previous SIOPEN study for INRG stage M infants with a moderate treatment. NEONATAL SUPRARENAL MASSES The incidence of suprarenal tumours/masses has increased in the last decade due to the expanded use of prenatal ultrasonography in routine obstetric care and in the neonatal and early infancy care. The differential diagnosis of these masses ranges from benign (adrenal haemorrhage) to malignant processes (neuroblastoma, adrenal carcinoma). Knowledge on perinatal suprarenal masses, although based on a relatively large literature, is scattered amongst studies on very few cases with no methodical approach and often short follow up. Therefore, the optimal management of these masses has not been clearly defined. Neuroblastoma at this age is an intriguing entity with a very good prognosis in most cases. The SIOPEN Group, based on their results in the first multicenter European Trial for infants with neuroblastoma (INES) and the world-wide experience provided in the literature, is launching this European surveillance study (Multi-centre, non-blinded, one armed prospective trial) for these masses. Treatment: Observation
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ranolazine will reduce the risk of arrhythmic events in patients with long QT syndrome type 3.
