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 purpose of the trial is to determine if extended-release dipyridamole + aspirin [Aggrenox, Asasa ntin] is superior to clopidogrel [Plavix], and if telmisartan [Micardis, Gliosartan, Kinzal, Kinzalm ono, Predxal, Pritor, Samertan, Telmisartan] is superior to placebo, in the presence of background antihypertensive therapy, in prevention of a second stroke in patients who have recently suffered a stroke and therefore are at high risk of suffering another one.
Patients will be assigned to one of three treatment groups. Study medication is administered over a 52 week study duration.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectively of coating of coronary stents with two different doses of rapamycin for the prevention of coronary vessel re-blockage
The effects of pactimibe versus placebo on the progression of atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries will be assessed using standard ultrasound techniques.
Determine long-term safety and tolerability of pregabalin in patients with anxiety disorders.
The study is aimed to test the hypothesis that there is anticipation in CMT
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the only effective treatment to patients resistant to conventional chemotherapy. Donor lymphocytes infusion (DLI) serve as a routine treatment of choice for patients relapsing following allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The present proposal is presented for introducing the use of immune rather than naive donor lymphocytes for patients with resistant relapse and resistant to DLI. DLI primed in-vitro against tumor cells of host origin or against host alloantigens presented by parental alloantigens in one way mixed lymphocytes culture can induce much more than potent graft-vs-leukemia and graft-vs-tumor effects, while down-regulating graft-vs-host disease (GVHD).
Patients with resistant metastatic solid tumors failing all conventional modalities who are eligible for immunotherapy by bispecific antibodies. First step: NST Second step: Patients with tumor cells expressing positive Her-2Neu and/or EpCAM with residual or recurrent disease following NST will be candidates for donor lymphocytes immunotherapy using bispecific antibodies. Patients with no matched donor available, expressing positive Her-2Neu and/or EpCAM tumor cells, will be eligible for donor mismatched lymphocytes using in-vitro rIL-2 activated allogeneic lymphocytes targeted to the tumor by bispecific antibodies, Her-2Neu and/or EpCAM.
The present protocol is designed to investigate the potential application of allogeneic cell-mediated immunotherapy in metastatic solid tumors similarly to the well established graft versus leukemia (GVL) effects in patients with hematologic malignancies. Patients with metastatic solid tumors resistant to conventional modalities will be eligible to participate in a treatment program based on the administration of non-myeloablative immunotherapy (i.e. fludarabine, Cytoxan) followed by interferon injections; subsequently the patients will be treated with mismatched alloreactive donor lymphocytes activated in vitro and in vivo with rIL-2. The aim of this study is based on the recognition of foreign tumor cell surface alloantigens.
The goal of this study is to apply allogeneic tumor cell vaccination for immunotherapy in patients with micro-metastatic disease and/or in patients at high risk disease progression. The present study will use allogeneic tumor cell lines for tumor cell vaccines that share MHC determinants with the patient aiming to overcome possible restriction of antigen presentation.
