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 Europe and North America. The aim of the trial is to assess disease activity and safety in subjects with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) when treated with NNC 0142-0000-0002.
The prevalence of endometrial polyp is 24% in the general population but is much higher in postmenopausal women. The incidence of malignant or pre-malignant findings in endometrial polyps ranges from 2 to 10% in menopausal women. Removal of endometrial polyps in postmenopausal symptomatic women is the standard of care, same goes for asymptomatic women with risk factors for endometrial malignancy, however treatment of asymptomatic postmenopausal women with endometrial polyp but no risk factors is disputable. In light of ambiguity in literature regarding the rate of malignant and pre-malignant findings in polyps in asymptomatic post-menopausal women, the investigators are asking to conduct a prospective study in order to evaluate and compare the incidence of malignant and pre-malignant changes in symptomatic and asymptomatic postmenopausal women with endometrial polyp
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of an intensive insulin regimen with insulin glargine and insulin glulisine in terms of change in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level from week 12 (visit 7) to week 24 (visit 10). Secondary Objectives: 1. Percentage of patients with HbA1c < 7% at week 24. 2. Percentage of patients with HbA1c < 7% and no symptomatic nocturnal hypoglycemia event at week 24. 3. Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) and 7-point Self Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) at week 0, week 12 and week 24. 4. Doses of insulin glargine and insulin glulisine: the daily dose (U) and the daily dose / kg (U/kg) will be calculated at week 24. 5. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, weight change will be measured at week 0, week 12 and week 24. 6. Number of patients suffering hypoglycemias (asymptomatic, symptomatic, nocturnal symptomatic, severe and nocturnal severe) will be evaluated during the treatment period. 7-Adverse events.
The aim of the study is in cancer of unknown primary (CUP) patients, to compare the cost-effectiveness of miRview™ mets test with conventional work-up in identifying the primary tumor site.
There is clearly a need for further data on the efficacy of biologic agents in the treatment of nail and scalp psoriasis, especially in the routine clinical setting. A few case reports can be found, but no published data exists from non-interventional studies, such as post-marketing observational studies (PMOS) that reflect routine clinical practice. The aim of this PMOS is to evaluate the long-term (12-month) efficacy of adalimumab in the treatment of nail and scalp psoriatic lesions in routine dermatologic practice.
The investigators hypothesis is that a significant number of patients may remain without specific cause and have recurrent syncope with its associated physical and mental morbidity.
Inadequate pain control after abdominal procedures may lead to adverse postoperative outcome. Epidural analgesia is currently an accepted technique in abdominal surgery, but its use has been limited in liver resections by postoperative coagulation disturbances and the possible increased risk of bleeding complications, including spinal hematoma. A range of alternative analgesic techniques can be used for major liver or pancreatic resections, including intrathecal morphine (single shot) administered immediately before surgery, and continuous administration of intravenous (IV) short-acting opioids, such as remifentanil, plus a single bolus of IV morphine. Postoperatively analgesia may be obtained by patient-controlled morphine analgesia (IV PCA). Both protocols have been demonstrated to provide satisfactory postoperative pain relief, and each has its unique advantages. However, to this end there is no data in the literature to show benefit from one regimen over the other. We therefore wish to determine whether there is a difference in analgesic efficacy between the two techniques, as optimizing perioperative pain relief in this rapidly expanding surgical field is of utmost importance. Our hypothesis is that continuous intraoperative IV analgesia with remifentanil followed by IV PCA morphine is not inferior to intrathecal morphine with respect to analgesia and ambulation outcome, and may provide an alternative, non-invasive intraoperative analgesic technique.
The purpose of this study was to collect long-term safety and tolerability, long-term efficacy, and health outcome data in all patients currently ongoing in the fingolimod multiple sclerosis clinical development program. This study combined all currently ongoing Phase II and III fingolimod extension studies as well as ongoing and newly planned studies into one single long-term extension protocol that provided patients with continuous treatment until fingolimod was registered, commercially available, and reimbursed in the respective countries.
The purpose of this study to obtain ovarian cortical fragments from perimenopausal patients, who undergo pelvic organ surgery and test whether treatment with PTEN inhibitor and PI3K activating peptide would induce these fragments to produce FSH responsive follicles in the nude mouse model.
In the present study the investigators are going to explore the oxidative status of HS-RBC and its contribution to hemolysis
