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 is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of 2 treatment types for the prevention of tumor recurrence of superficial bladder cancer: 1. A combination of bladder wall heating and local chemotherapy (Synergo) 2. Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)
Study title:A Study for Testing Safety and Efficacy of the administration of Blood-Borne Autologous Endothelial Progenitor Cells to Alleviate Anginal Symptoms and Myocardial Ischemia in Patients with Severe Anginal Syndrome Principle Investigator: Assoc. Prof. Damras,Tresukosol,M.D.,Head of Cardiac Catherlization unit,Division of Cardiology,Department of Medicine,Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital,Mahidol University Study objective : To determine the safety and efficacy of intracoronary injection of blood-borne autologous EPCs in relieving symptoms of angina pectoris in symptomatic patients treated with maximal medical therapy with an occluded coronary artery supplying ischemic myocardium Study Design : Phase II, a single center,a non-randomized,open-label trial, Study population : Total expected no. of patients : 24 main selection criteria : - Patients with chronic stable angina on maximal medical therapy and an occluded coronary artery supplying an ischemic viable myocardial region as shown on Sesta-mibi scan. On coronary angiography,the occluded coronary artery must have a patent proximal segment of at least 30 mm with at least one side branch to enable the injection of the EPC if the vessel remains occluded despite the attempted angioplasty efforts. - Age 18-80 years - Ejection fraction >35 % on Sesta-mibi scan - Sestamibi scan (myocardial perfusion) during exercise or dipyridamole,demonstrating regional reversible ischemia in an area relating to the occluded coronary artery. Investigational Product : At D-8 250 ml of blood drawn from the patients for production of autologous EPCs or ACPs (VescellTM), On D0 ,at least 1.5 million EPCs with viability >75 % suspended in 6 ml sterile cell culture medium will be injected to the same patients by intracoronary artery. The study consists of 4 periods:Screening ( D-14to-9&D-8,Treatment(D0),Acute Safety follow-up (D1&D2),Chronic follow-up (D30,D90&D180)period ,total follow-up of each case is 6 months. Evaluation criteria : Safety : no.& duration of adverse event & serious adverse event Efficacy : - change from baseline to 1,3,6 months of CCS, 6-minute walking test - change from baseline to 3 & 6 months of Sesta-mibi scan - change from baseline to 3 & 6 months of symptom-limited exercise time,exercise-induced ischemia & METs on Sesta-mibi scan Duration of study: July 2004-December 2006
The purpose of this study is to see if Cediranib in combination with FOLFOX is effective in treating metastatic colorectal cancer and to see how it compares with Avastin (Bevacizumab) in combination with FOLFOX.
CHF patients will be monitored using EarlySense ES-16 device and will simultaneously fill diaries and log their weight daily. The data collected and analyzed by the ES-16 device will be correlated with the CHF status data.
To determine whether supplementation of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid conjugated to phosphatidylserine rather than triglycerides (fish oil) could affect Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms in children.
Study Objective: To establish the substantial equivalence of the SOLX Gold Shunt to commercially available aqueous shunts, specifically the Ahmed™ Glaucoma Valve Model FP7, in the ability to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) associated with glaucoma in eyes where medical and conventional surgical treatments have failed.
Vocal cord paralysis is a common cause of congenital stridor and airway obstruction. In this study we plan to identify the genetic locus of the genes in two extended families who suffer of the disease.
This protocol was designed for testing the intraoperative use of the Dune device. This multicenter study will take place in Israel at 12 sites.
This study will investigate the application of a vasopressin antagonist in the treatment of hyponatremia most likely caused by inappropriate AVP secretion. The population studied will include patients with euvolemic or hypervolemic hyponatremia.
