There are about 13332 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Netherlands. 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 a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized, parallel group, treatment study to assess the efficacy and safety of lifileucel in combination with pembrolizumab compared with pembrolizumab alone in participants with untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Participants randomized to the pembrolizumab monotherapy arm who subsequently have a blinded independent central review- verified confirmed progressive disease (PD) will be offered lifileucel monotherapy in an optional crossover period.
Postoperative radiotherapy is for the majority of breast cancer patients the standard of care. During postoperative radiotherapy, unexpected dosimetric deviations can occur due to breast contour changes resulting from resorption of postoperative breast or chest wall seroma/hematoma, oedema either postoperatively or during irradiation, or arm/body positioning variation. In approximately 10% of cases, repositioning after setup imaging is not sufficient, and offline plan adaptation is required. When a new treatment planning is required in the standard offline workflow this will take in general 2 days. By using an online adaptive workflow with a daily treatment planning this delay and extra work caused by offline plan adaptation can be omitted. The aim of this study is to translate the offline adaptive workflow to an online adaptive workflow, and investigate the experiences of patients who have been treated with online adaptive radiotherapy for breast cancer (BREAST-ART).
This observational study is a first orientation on the effects and feasibility of a group training to plan and organize for adolescents with attention deficit disorder (ADHD). This study focuses on the following questions: - Is there an improvement on planning skills after training? - Are there fewer ADHD characteristics after training? - Is there an improvement on self-esteem after training? - How feasible is a group training for adolescents with ADHD? - How satisfied are practitioners and adolescents about the training? Based on the effect-size of the individual training variant, the literature on the effect of group treatment and the adolescent target group, in which the peer group gets more important, the hypothesis is that the group training Plan My Life Together will have a medium to large effect on planning skills. Furthermore, positive effects on ADHD characteristics and self-esteem are also expected. The assumption is that Plan My Life Together is feasible and suitable.
About half of the patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) remain dependent on the help of others or die in the first 90 days. We hypothesize that treatment with ghrelin, started in the first six hours after stroke onset, improves early recovery and long-term functional outcome in these patients. Ghrelin is a naturally occurring hormone and mildly excitatory neurotransmitter also known as the 'hunger hormone.' Treatment with acylated ghrelin consistently improved functional and histological recovery in in vitro and in vivo models of ischemic stroke.
The goal of this pragmatic multicentre clinical trial is to investigate whether telemonitoring with Rheum@Home leads to less outpatient visits, while maintaining tight disease control and high patient-experienced quality of care in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Participants will be asked to - complete questionaires every 4 weeks - perform a walking test every 4 weeks - routine lab - routine disease activity measurement by a qualified assessor Researchers will compare care via the telemedicine system (intervention) or standard care (control) to see if there are differences in the number of rheumatology outpatient visits and patient reported quality of care after 12 months follow up.
Recurrent miscarriages (RM) affects 3% of all fertile couples, but remains unexplained in most cases, limiting therapeutic options. Possibly the maternal immune system plays a role in recurrent miscarriage. Prednisolone suppresses the immune system and might enable development of normal pregnancy. In this randomized controlled clinical trial the investigators will study the effect of prednisolone on the live birth rate in patients with RM. Secondary, the tolerability and safety for mother and child and the cost-effectiveness is investigated. In the study one group of pregnant women with RM and gestational age <7 weeks will receive prednisolone, the other group will receive a placebo. Total use of the medicine during this study is 8 weeks, further care during the study is routinely antenatal care. Subjects will be asked to fill in 4 short questionnaires and will have contact with a research nurse at different time points to gain information on the course of the pregnancy and possible side effects. Results of the study will be implemented in (inter) national guidelines, to effect everyday practice.
Impaired brain vascular function precedes the development of reduced cognitive performance, while brain insulin-resistance is also associated with cognitive decline. Peanut consumption has already been shown to beneficially affect cognitive performance. However, underlying mechanisms have not yet been established, while well-controlled trials on longer-term effects of peanuts on cognitive performance are highly needed. The hypothesis is that longer-term peanut consumption has beneficial effects on (regional) cerebral blood flow responses (primary outcome), which may relate to an improved cognitive performance (secondary outcome) in older men and women. Important objectives are to investigate in older adults the effect of 16-week peanut consumption on (i) brain vascular function in cognitive-control brain areas, and (ii) brain insulin-sensitivity. We will also focus on changes in cognitive performance as assessed with a neuropsychological test battery (secondary objective). Cerebral blood flow responses before (brain vascular function) and after the administration of intranasal insulin (brain insulin sensitivity) will be non-invasively quantified by the non-invasive gold standard magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-perfusion method Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL).
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, triple blind, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of xevinapant with radiotherapy in older patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) of oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. Upon confirmation of eligibility, subjects will be enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to: - Arm A: 3 cycles of xevinapant (200 mg/day from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) + intensive modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) followed by 3 cycles of xevinapant in monotherapy phase (200 mg/day from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) - Arm B: 3 cycles of placebo (from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) + IMRT followed by 3 cycles of placebo in monotherapy phase (from Day 1 to 14, per cycle). Patients will be stratified by institution, disease location/p16 status (p16 positive oropharyngeal cancer, versus others), G8 score. Three strata for the G8 will be used (>14, versus 11-14 versus <11). Patients will undergo imaging in week 20 and upon clinical suspicion of progression/recurrence. Clinical examination will take place every 12 weeks in the first 3 years.
The coprimary objectives of the study are to: - evaluate the efficacy of rocatinlimab in combination with topical corticosteroid and/or topical calcineurin inhibitor (TCS/TCI), compared with placebo in combination with TCS/TCI at Week 24, assessed using Validated Investigator's Global Assessment for Atopic Dermatitis (vIGA-AD™). - evaluate the efficacy of rocatinlimab, in combination with TCS/TCI, compared with placebo in combination with TCS/TCI at Week 24, assessed using Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI).
The purpose of this study is to find out if somapacitan is safe and how well somapacitan works in children either born small for gestational age or with Turner syndrome, Noonan syndrome or idiopathic short stature. Somapacitan is a new growth hormone medicine for treatment of low level of growth hormone. The study will last for about 3 years. During the study, the participants will be treated with somapacitan once a week. Somapacitan can be injected anytime during the day. The study doctor or nurse will show how to inject somapacitan, so that the participant knows how to do it at home.
