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 is an open label clinical study designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of Sci-B-Vac Hepatitis B Vaccine compared to Engerix-B Hepatitis B Vaccine in dialysis patients. The study hypothesis is that vaccination with Sci B Vac will achieve a higher seroprotection rate and a higher anti-Hepatitis B surface antibody serum titer level than vaccination with Engerix-B Dialysis patients will be categorized as "naïve" or "previously vaccinated" and each group will be randomized to treatment. Naïve patients randomized to Sci-B-Vac Hepatitis B vaccine will receive vaccination in three doses, 10 μg each, at 0, 1, and 6 months, or Engerix-B Hepatitis B vaccine given in four doses, 40 μg each, at 0, 1, 2, and 6 months. Previously vaccinated patients randomized to Sci-B-Vac Hepatitis B vaccine will receive vaccination in three doses, 20 μg each, at 0, 1, and 6 months, or Engerix-B Hepatitis B vaccine given in four doses, 40 μg each, at 0, 1, 2, and 6 months. All vaccines will be administered via intra-muscular injection to the deltoid muscle. The study will consist of three periods: a screening period of up to four weeks, a 24-week open-label treatment period, and a 24-week safety follow-up period. The total expected duration of the study per subject is 52 weeks as follows: Screening period: approximately 4 weeks; treatment period: 24 weeks; and follow up period: 24 weeks. The primary endpoint is the by-vaccine difference in the proportion of subjects attaining seroprotective immune response (anti-Hepatitis B surface antibody ≥ 10 IU/mL) 4 weeks after the last vaccination with either Sci-B-Vac or Engerix-B. Secondary endpoints include anti-Hepatitis B surface antibody geometric mean concentrations calculated for all subjects upon last active dose; the proportion of subjects with anti-Hepatitis B surface antibody concentrations equal to or above 10 IU/mL for all subjects at 12 weeks following the first vaccine dose; the by-treatment difference in serum titer levels of anti-Hepatitis B surface antibodies at 12, 24 and 52 weeks following the first vaccination. A by-vaccine comparison of adverse events will also be performed.
This study is a randomized clinical trial with 6 months probiotic supplement vs. placebo treatment and 6 month follow up on 100 NAFLD patients that will undergo sleeve gastrectomy surgery. Measurements will be conducted at: baseline, M3 (3 months after treatment initiation), M6 and M12 and will include: abdominal US, Fibroscan, biochemical tests, anthropometric measurements, glucose breath test for bacterial overgrowth, fecal samples and questionnaires for demographic details, quality of life, food intake, food tolerance and habitual physical activity. 20 subjects will undergo an additional liver-MRI test at baseline and M6. Additionally, 30 healthy participants will consume probiotic supplement vs. placebo for 28 days and will undergo gastroscopy and colonoscopy before and during consumption.
This is a prospective, multicenter, single arm study. The study group will be compose of NVAMD patients who had partial or complete failure responding to initial bevacizumab or ranibizumab treatment of 3-6 monthly intravitreal injections. The patients in the study groups will receive 5 intravitreal injections of aflibercept 2mg/0.05ml at specific visits. Aflibercept will be provided for total period of 24 weeks.
The purpose of the study is to define the precision, accuracy and variability of the NBM-200 system in non invasive blood Hemoglobin (Hb) measurements relative to the laboratory blood analyzer by comparing two consecutive Hb values obtained by the NBM system to venous values.

STRATEGIC-1 is a study designed to determine the best sequence of therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
The investigators aim to determine whether a new method of enhancing and improving ECG acquisition, analysis and display is effective. The investigators will perform superimposition and summation of multiple standard ECG cycles, in the same lead, by temporal alignment to the peak R wave and voltage alignment to an improved baseline at the T-P segment.
This is 2-part, randomized, open label, multi-center, parallel group, phase III study comparing the efficacy and safety of LGX818 plus MEK162 to vemurafenib and LGX818 monotherapy in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma with BRAF V600 mutation. A total of approximately 900 patients will be randomized. Part 1: Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of 3 treatment arms: 1. LGX818 450 mg QD plus MEK162 45 mg BID (denoted as Combo 450 arm) 2. LGX818 300 mg QD monotherapy (denoted as LGX818 arm) or 3. vemurafenib 960 mg BID (denoted as vemurafenib arm) Part 2: Patients will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to one of the 2 treatment arms: 1. LGX818 300 mg QD plus MEK162 45 mg BID (denoted as Combo 300 arm) or 2. LGX818 300 mg QD monotherapy (denoted as LGX818 arm)
The purpose of this study is to take advance of the presence of two different cohorts of SCA patients in one country, the first group included SCA patients from Bedouin Arab origin that lives in Israel for more than one century and originally comes from African countries or Saudi Arabia, those patients lives in north east Israel and are treated at the Hematology Unit of the Emek Medical Center, the second group are SCA patients from African origin that come to Israel in the last decades and belong to original African population, this group receive treatment at the Pediatric Hematology Unit, Dana Children's Hospital, Ichilov Medical Center. A third group is a cohort of SCA patients treated at Schneider Children's Hospital Hematology Unit. Those patients belong also to the Israel Arab population and patients from a village that African Muslims live for many years. The characteristics of the three groups will be compared to the characteristics of a fourth group, a cohort of Afro-American SCA patients that are followed up and treated at the Pediatric Hematology Unit, Detroit Children's Medical Center, Detroit, Michigan, USA.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral cabozantinib at a 60 mg dose compared with a 140 mg dose in subjects with progressive, metastatic MTC. It will test if the lower dose results in similar progression free survival (PFS) and overall response rate (ORR) with fewer adverse events compared to the PFS, ORR and adverse events found in previous clinical trials of 140 mg.
