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 study purpose is to compare the effectiveness of different methods for post-operative pain treatment after total knee replacement.
The purpose of this study is to analyse bacteremia induced by debridement of pressure ulcers in patients in the complex nursing department.
The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of lapaquistat acetate, once daily (QD), to lower cholesterol in subjects with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia undergoing lipid-lowering treatment.
The primary objective is to show whether rimonabant reduces the risk of a heart attack (MI), stroke, or death from an MI or stroke in patients with abdominal obesity with other cardiovascular (CV) risk factors. The secondary objective is to show whether rimonabant reduces the risk of MI, stroke, CV death, or CV hospitalization in these patients.
Aspirin was proved to be the drug preventing vein grafts from closure and improving clinical outcome after coronary artery bypass surgery. It appears to be effective when being prescribed as early as first 48 hr. after the operation without increasing the incidence of bleeding complications. the exact effective dose is not known.
Isolated mild fetal ventriculomegaly is a common finding in fetal ultrasound examinations. When the ventricular diameter is more than 15 mm it is usually considered as severe and connected to other malformations. Most of these children will be severely affected later in life. Less than 10 mm ventricular width considered as normal. The current medical knowledge can not answer questions regarding future development of children who were diagnosed to suffer from mild (10-14.9 mm) brain ventriculomegaly during the pregnancy. We would like to assess the development and neurological status of all children who were diagnosed as "mild ventriculomegaly" during the pregnancy in the last 6 years and to prospectively follow up all the children who will be diagnosed from the beginning of the study on for 6 years. We hypothesized that the course of their development is different than of other children.
This is an international study in adult patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma who have already received at least one autologous stem cell transplantation and who have responded but later progressed, or relapsed, at least one year after transplantation. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to one of two treatments: either Velcade plus Thalidomide plus Dexamethasone or Thalidomide plus Dexamethasone. Thalidomide and Velcade are two new agents that have recently become available for the treatment of multiple myeloma, especially in relapsed patients. This study therefore aims to test the hypothesis that the combination treatment with Velcade plus Thalidomide plus Dexamethasone will result in a longer time to progression (measure of time after the disease is treated until it starts to get worse) than Thalidomide plus Dexamethasone alone.
This is a long-term safety follow-up study to assess the post-treatment safety, at 12 and 24 months, in patients with type 2 diabetes after participation in the phaseII/III studies GALLANT, GALLEX and ARMOR. In addition, selected patients, including those with pre-defined laboratory or clinical findings, will have a 12-week post-treatment follow-up visit, including laboratory evaluation and adverse event recording.
To assess the efficacy and safety of PF-3512676 administered in combination with gemcitabine/cisplatin chemotherapy as first-line treatment in patients with locally advanced or metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and to compare it to the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine/cisplatin alone.
To assess the efficacy and safety of PF-3512676 administered in combination with paclitaxel/carboplatin chemotherapy as first-line treatment in patients with locally advanced or metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and to compare it to the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel
