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.
Many cancer patients, especially those with pancreatic cancer, suffer from severe lower back / upper abdominal pain. This pain is often poorly managed with standard treatments; the doses of painkiller required often induce side effects, whereas nerve block procedures (where a needle is deeply inserted into the back) are both invasive and of limited benefit. This clinical trial investigates a unique novel approach in which high-dose radiation (radiosurgery) is focused on the offending nerve bundle (the celiac plexus) in the posterior abdomen. Preliminary results from a single institution pilot trial are very promising: pain relief is substantial and side effects minimal. In this multi-center clinical trial, patients will be accrued and receive treatment at several international locations. Main aim of the study: Establish the safety and efficacy of the treatment in the multi-center setting. This trial will bring pain relief to cancer sufferers and improve current acceptable standard of care. The trial resonates with the Gateway mission of promoting new treatments that directly benefit people living with cancer, enhancing their wellbeing, and consequently decreasing the fear associated with a cancer diagnosis.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus epacadostat with platinum-based chemotherapy versus pembrolizumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy plus placebo as first-line therapy in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus epacadostat compared to pembrolizumab plus placebo as first-line treatment in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) expressing high levels of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1).
Dry eye complaints occur in 5.5 to 33.7% of the population, and are ranked as the most frequent symptoms of patients visiting ophthalmologists. Dry eye syndrome is caused by the reduced production and/or improper quality of the tear film. One of the causes of reduced tear production is Sjögren's syndrome. Sjögren's is estimated to affect up to 4 million patients in the US alone. It affects mostly middle aged women (40-50 years of age) with a female to male prevalence ratio of 9:1. The current study seeks to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LO2A ophthalmic solution in the symptomatic treatment of dry eye in patients with Sjögren's syndrome. This study will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, GCP,and applicable regulatory requirements.
L-carnitine is an amino acid that is naturally produced in the liver and kidneys, it is involved in transporting fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane, it could be an important component in treating a fatty liver disease. The investigators conduct a study to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of L-Carnitine and Magnesium as a treatment for fatty liver.
The aims of this survey are to assess the relationships between exposure to screens of digital media devices, sleep patterns, and daily function such as subjective sleepiness and attention abilities in adult Israel population
The main objective is to assess long term safety of treatment with oral nintedanib in patients with Systemic Sclerosis associated Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD).
Female patients with POP will be evaluated for vaginal elasticity using vaginal tactile imaging both before and after surgery for the repair of the POP. Surgical repair will be performed by a single surgeon who will perform either a laparoscopic or vaginal repair.
The interferon- and ribavirin- (RBV) free combination regimen of glecaprevir plus pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) for the treatment of genotypes 1 to 6 of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) viral infection has been shown to be safe and effective in randomized controlled clinical trials. This observational study is an effectiveness research examining the regimen of GLE/PIB, used according to local label, under real world conditions in a clinical practice patient population.
Female patients with USI will be evaluated for vaginal elasticity using vaginal tactile imaging both before and after surgery for the repair of the USI. Surgical repair will be performed by a single surgeon who will perform a tension free vaginal tape obturator (TVT-O) repair.
