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 trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America. The purpose of the trial is to investigate the effect of insulin degludec (IDeg) in combination with liraglutide (Lira) and metformin (at least 1500 mg daily or maximum tolerated dose) in subjects with type 2 diabetes qualifying for treatment intensification.
Primary Objective: To compare the effect of alirocumab with placebo on the occurrence of cardiovascular (CV) events (composite endpoint of coronary heart disease (CHD) death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), fatal and non-fatal ischemic stroke, unstable angina (UA) requiring hospitalization) in participants who experienced an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event 4 to 52 weeks prior to randomization and were treated with evidence-based medical and dietary management of dyslipidemia. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on secondary endpoints (any CHD event , major CHD event, any CV event, composite of all cause mortality/non-fatal MI/non-fatal ischemic stroke, CHD deaths, CV deaths, all cause mortality). - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab. - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on lipid parameters.
Approximately 30-60% of all schizophrenia patients who fail to respond to typical antipsychotics may respond to Clozapine. Clozapine has long been considered the "gold standard" within the atypical neuroleptic spectrum, backed by years of clinical experience and research, but uncertainties remain in some aspects of this drug. One such question is the link between dose, blood levels and patient clinical response. The Clozapine therapeutic plasma levels range between 250 - 450 ng/mL creating difficulties in using these results in routine clinical practice. Approximately 30% - 51% of "treatment-resistant schizophrenia" patients do not fully respond to Clozapine, a poorly understood phenomenon. Factors relevant to Clozapine-resistance include co-morbidity, drug misuse, poor adherence, inadequate duration of treatment and inadequate dose/plasma-levels. Pharmacogenetic factors such as different polymorphisms in involved genes may play a role. Pharmacodynamic and genetic data appear important in determining the clinical response to Clozapine. Clozapine-treated patients possessing different 3A4 polymorphisms, may respond differently as compared to other patients having normal 3A4 alleles. Recently, the CYP2D6 has also been involved in this drug metabolic pathway. Population pharmacokinetics of clozapine evaluated with the nonparametric maximum likelihood method. This pharmacogenetic explanation/hypothesis may explain Clozapine- resistance in schizophrenics. The high variability in plasma levels requires a large study in order to be able to determine correlation between clinical efficacy and plasma levels and genotyping. A preliminary study will enable power analysis and adequate determination of sample size.
This randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of onartuzumab (MetMAb) in combination with 5-fluorouracil, folinic Acid, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) in participants with metastatic human epidermal growth receptor (HER) 2-negative and MET-positive adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either onartuzumab or placebo in combination with mFOLFOX6. Participants may continue to receive onartuzumab or placebo until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participant or physician decision to discontinue treatment.
The purpose of the study is to estimate the rate of risk factors for appearance of disease or fetal malformations in a population who turn to hospital "Hillel Yaffe" and examine whether there is a difference in the rate of early testing for diseases or birth defects in the fetus. Understanding the population and its risk factors, will allow specific reference to these risk factors to lowering them to eventually reduce the rate of congenital malformations in this population.
This study will examine the pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of rIX-FP for the control and prevention of bleeding episodes in children who have previously received factor replacement therapy for hemophilia B.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a continuous intravenous (IV) ularitide infusion on the clinical status and outcome of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).
At a previous study the investigators have assessed the safety and efficacy of treatment with AAT(Alpha 1 Antitrypsin)in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes subjects aiming at beta cells preservation . Since treatment with AAT is expected to be a chronic treatment; stopping treatment will probably result in eventual loss of the preserved beta-cell function. Indeed, other investigational drugs aiming at beta cells preservation have shown that patients who were initially treated and maintained their initial beta-cell function, required continuation of treatment or they lost the beta-cell function. Therefore, in this extension study, patients who were previously treated with AAT and maintained clinically significant beta-cell function are offered a continuation of treatment, since they are likely to benefit from use of the medication. The proposed study is aimed to assess the long term effect of AAT in subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus: safety and tolerability of treatment, and effect on beta-cell function. Subjects who have completed all visits of the 008 study will be offered to participate in the extension study. The study will be consist off two main arms as following: Arm 1: Subjects who maintained peak stimulated C-peptide secretion ≥ 0.2 nmol/L will continue treatment with AAT for up to 18 treatments according to the dosage group they were allocated to in the 008 study. Arm 2: Subjects who have not maintained peak stimulated C-peptide secretion ≥ 0.2nmol/L and subjects with peak stimulated C -peptide secretion ≥ 0.2 nmol/L who are reluctant to receive additional study drug. Clinical follow up for all subjects in both arms will be for 3 years
The objective of the study (part A) is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BAY80-6946 in patients with indolent or aggressive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, who have progressed after standard therapy. 30 patients will be enrolled to both indolent and aggressive disease group. The objective of the study part B (CHRONOS-1) is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BAY80-6946 in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma. 120 patients will be enrolled in the part B of the study. Further objectives are to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and biomarkers. Quality of life will be a further objective of part B of the study. In a cohort of 20 patients (enrolled both in part A and B) an ECG substudy will be performed to assess the potential for cardiac toxicity and QT/QTc interval prolongation of BAY80-6946. After an up to 28-day screening period, eligible patients will start treatment with BAY80-6946 at a dose of 0.8 mg/kg (Part A) and at a dose of 60 mg (Part B). Treatment will be continued until disease has progressed or until another criterion is met for withdrawal from study. An end-of-treatment visit will be performed within 7 days after discontinuation of study treatment. Thirty to 35 days after last study drug administration, a safety followup visit will be performed for the collection of adverse events (AEs) and concomitant medication data. Patients will be contacted quarterly to determine overall survival status up to 4 years after last patient completed treatment. Patients who discontinue study drug for reasons other than disease progression will enter the Active Assessment Follow-up period. The end of study notification to Health Authorities will be based on the completion of the collection of survival data. The efficacy is measured by the decrease in tumor size. Tumor assessments will be done at Screening, every 8 weeks during Year 1, every 12 weeks during Year 2, and every 6 months during Year 3. Blood samples will be collected for pharmacokinetic analysis. Archival tumor tissue and blood samples will be collected for biomarker analysis (mandatory) and for central pathology review (part B), fresh biopsy tissue will also be collected if available.
The goal of the investigators research is to explore energy production of the ovarian follicle in older reproductive age women at the time of oocyte retrieval.
