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 Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, by selective phototermolysis, is used for eliminating, among other application, benign vascular lesions and unwanted leg veins. Light energy heats the deeper structures of the skin. IPL devices provide a broad wavelength spectrum of 515 to 1200 nm and fluence from 10 to 40 J/cm at o.5-1 Hz.The light is focused by a reflector and then transmitted through various filters that cut off the lower wavelength range of the emitted light; therefore, only those wavelengths longer than these of the filters are transmitted. objectives: 1. evaluate and optimize the clinical performance of the Luminis ONE platform for each of the aforementioned clinical applications. 2. Reconfirm the parameter settings for each of the aforementioned clinical applications. 3. Confirm the user friendly design of the device, in aspects of software (user interface) and various technical operational features.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of metformin on biochemical and histological findings in NAFLD patients with insulin resistance syndrome.
Cranberries have been proved to reduce the rate of urinary tract infections in a population of women with recurrent urinary tract infections in previous studies. The purpose of the study is to examine the efficacy of cranberries in pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes in a)prolonging the latent period (=the time period between the time the water broke and delivery of the fetus) and b)reduction of infectious morbidity of both the mother and infant.
To determine the clinical effects of garlic in preventing and treatment of patients with chemotherapy related febrile neutropenia.These patients have a very high incidence of infections which are not routinely covered by the standard empiric therapy. Adding a non- toxic and possibly effective therapy may reduce the risk for infections, synergize the empiric antibiotic treatment and may lessen the need for broader spectrum and more severe side effects.
To determine the clinical effects of coenzyme Q10 and Curcumin in improving the cytopenias of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. we propose to explore the efficacy of the natural compounds curcumin and CoQ10 in MDS because these two agents possess many of the effects that are desirable in MDS.
Phase II, multi-center, two-stage study utilising a randomised discontinuation design to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GW786034 (pazopanib) in adult subjects with locally recurrent or metastatic clear-cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). After the interim analysis, the design was changed to an open label, single arm study with all subjects receiving pazopanib.
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and effectiveness of GI262570 compared to placebo (a pill that looks exactly like GI262570 but contains no active medicine) in improving specific tests that indicate the degree of liver fibrosis (scarring). Subjects who are enrolled in the study must have had prior treatment with interferon (either pegylated or standard interferon) plus ribavirin for at least 12 weeks to treat their hepatitis C, but either failed to clear the virus or didn't tolerate the treatment.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether castor oil is effective in inducing labor.
Odiparcil is being studied to determine if it can prevent blood clots from forming after a total knee replacement and also to prove that odiparcil is safe.
The purpose of this study is to see if male children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) have changes in strength when given the drug Pentoxifylline as a rescue treatment. A total of 64 subjects are expected to participate through all other centers of the Cooperative International Neuromuscular Research Group (CINRG) worldwide. The primary purpose of this study is to see whether the addition of pentoxifylline to a steroid regimen is effective in treating deteriorating muscle strength by comparing the muscle strength of PTX treated subjects and placebo treated subjects.
