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 the study is to compare the clinical benefit, as measured by duration of overall survival, of Nivolumab vs. Everolimus in subjects with advanced or metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma who have received prior anti-angiogenic therapy
Colorectal cancer patients with metastases (mCRC) at response under expensive chemotherapy which may be toxic +/- exhausting are candidates for an effective and more convenient maintenance treatment. Objectives: 1. To define the efficacy of maintenance chemotherapy by a low-dose metronomic (LDM) regimen, in metastatic CRC patients responding under FOLFIRI + bevacizumab. 2. To discover predictive factors for response to this LDM regimen. Hypothesis: 1. The re-growth of residual metastases can be slowed by the anti-angiogenic effects of LDM chemotherapy. 2. Serial measurements of angiogenic/ inflammatory factors in the plasma and/or evaluation of certain enzymes in the tumor may discover predictive factors of response to LDM chemotherapy in metastatic CRC patients.
We present the study design of a clinical trial designed to assess the clinical effects of the multispecies probiotic combination "BIO-25" in IBS-D patients. To this aim the primary endpoints of the study will be improvement in abdominal pain and stool consistency. The study will also be designed and powered to investigate the effect of the probiotic BIO-25 on the putative inflammation-associated parameters related to microinflammation in IBS, using postulated improvements in Hs-CRP, and calprotectin as markers of that effect. Additional aims of the study will examine the possible effect of probiotic BIO-25 on the cholinergic status.
The hypothesis of the study is that supplementation with Cardio Mato (a Tomato Extracted Lycopene)for 12 weeks will decrease the blood pressure of subjects with prehypertension compared to Placebo.
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of vemurafenib in participants with completely resected, cutaneous BRAF mutation-positive melanoma at high risk for recurrence. Participants will be enrolled in two separate cohorts: Cohort 1 will include participants with completely resected Stage IIC, IIIA (participants with one or more nodal metastasis greater than [>] 1 millimeter [mm] in diameter), or IIIB cutaneous melanoma, as defined by the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Classification, Version 7; Cohort 2 will include participants with Stage IIIC cutaneous melanoma, as defined by this classification scheme. Within each cohort, participants will be randomized (1:1 ratio) to receive vemurafenib or matching placebo over a 52-week period.
Patients receiving oral anticoagulation or anti-platelet therapy are at high risk of hematoma after device implantation. This study intends to examine the efficacy of the TopClosure(c) System in wound healing in these patients.
Underfeeding in the critically ill patient is a common observable fact throughout intensive care units. Patients who develop caloric deficit during their stay in the ICU have been shown in previous reports to be associated with increased complications such as increased rate of infections, and nosocomial blood stream infections. Yet, other studies have shown that patients with moderate caloric deficit may be associated with better outcome than patients who receive higher levels of caloric intake.
The hypothesis of the study is that tomato extracted lycopene will be able to decrease postprandial oxidation and inflammation in healthy weight men and women when compared to Placebo.
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of Siponimod (BAF312) versus placebo in a variable treatment duration in patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (Core Part) followed by extended treatment with open-label BAF312 to obtain data on long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy (Extension Part).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of an association between Localized Provoked Vulvodynia (LPV) that is both severe and primary and polymorphic markers/single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in and around the genes encoding heparanase (HSPE-1), Vanilloid Receptor VR1 (TRPV1), and Nerve Growth Factor (NGF).
