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 Phase 3 study has been designed to confirm that adding custirsen to standard first-line docetaxel/prednisone treatment can slow tumor progression and enhance survival outcomes compared to standard first-line docetaxel/prednisone treatment alone. This will be a randomized, open-label, multicenter, international trial. Treatment will consist of docetaxel/prednisone/custirsen vs. docetaxel/prednisone. A total of at least 1000 patients will be randomized. Patients will be randomly assigned with equal probability to the two arms.
This study is aimed at finding the effect of PulseHaler™ with Albuterol on Lung Deposition of Aerosol and on Pulmonary Functions in COPD Patients
Accurate detection of a heart attack (an acute myocardial infarction) is one of the most pressing needs in medicine. Recordings of the electrocardiogram (ECG) (electrical activity of the heart) are one of the first tools used to diagnose a heart attack, but the ECG is not very accurate, especially at the beginning of a heart attack. A new technique for analysing a special part of the ECG may provide more accurate detection of a heart attack. The study hypothesis is that this new technique, the HFQRS analysis, will provide important additional information to that available from the regular ECG.
Nursing team of well baby nursery at Hillel Yaffe medical center in Hadera, Israel have noticed that infant of Ethiopian-origin mothers regurgitate more than other infants. Probably, these infants are breastfeed much more than other infants. Some Ethiopian-origin mothers are used to eat teff-flower porridge during the last weeks of pregnancy and after birth, in order to expand milk production. Study goal is to find out if infants of Ethiopian-origin mother do regurgitate more than others, and if they weight gain is similar to other infants. Another goal is to find out if breastfeeding mothers of Ethiopian origin do eat that porridge, and if there is any difference between those who do eat that porridge and those who do not.
The purpose of this study is to compare overall survival in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer treated with either ramucirumab and FOLFIRI or placebo and FOLFIRI.
Objective: To determine the effect of non-closure of the visceral and parietal peritoneum during Cesarean section on the formation of adhesions. Study design: A prospective randomized trial of 533 women undergoing primary Cesarean section; 256 were randomized to non closure and 277 to closure of the peritoneum. At a subsequent cesarean,he presence of adhesions and their severity was evaluated at several sites: between the layers of the abdominal wall, between the bladder and the abdominal wall, between bladder and uterus, between the uterus and the abdominal wall, and between the bowels and the pelvic organs. A cumulative adhesion score was calculated.
The investigators will examine the toxicity of therapeutic doses of paracetamol in patients in severe sepsis. Patients with fever and severe sepsis will be randomized to receive paracetamol or dypirone. The investigators will monitor blood glutathione and liver enzymes to look for potential toxicity.
The study aims to investigate the efficacy of gait training using virtual reality to decrease the risk of falls in elderly idiopathic fallers. The investigator hypothesize that training with virtual reality would increase the ability to perform in the "real world" environment and decrease the risk of falls in elderly adults.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of insulin pump therapy versus multiple daily injections in insulin-taking type 2 Diabetes Mellitus who are sub optimally controlled with multiple daily injections (MDI).
The purpose of this study is to assess the procedural and post-procedural safety and efficacy of AeriSeal therapy at up to 4 subsegments during a single treatment session in patients with GOLD Stage III/IV homogeneous or heterogeneous emphysema.
