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.
The purpose of this study is to investigate dostarlimab monotherapy in participants with locally advanced Mismatch-repair deficient (dMMR)/Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) rectal cancer who have received no prior treatment. Participants who achieve complete clinical response (cCR) following dostarlimab treatment will undergo non-operative management (NOM), including close surveillance for recurrent disease. The goal of the study is to determine if Dostarlimab therapy alone is an effective treatment that can allow participants to avoid chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.
Monocenter randomized controlled proof of principle study to investigate the effect of sugammadex at the end of total hip replacement surgery on the postoperative innate immune function
We will perform Whole Exome Sequencing on DNA from saliva. We will include: Children with a history of MIS-C; children with post-COVID condition; and controls in order to identify rare, high impact genetic variants in immunological genes and pathways in children with a history of MIS-C or pediatric post-COVID condition.
A research study to investigate how quickly and to what extent different compositions of the study medicine ziltivekimab are absorbed, transported, and eliminated from the body. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved for market. The study medicine will be injected under the skin (this is called subcutaneous administration). Two different administration methods will be compared: a syringe and a pen-injector. A pen-injector is a device that is developed to make injections more easy and convenient. They are for example used by diabetes patients to inject insulin. It will also be investigated how safe ziltivekimab is and how well it is tolerated when it is used by healthy participants. Ziltivekimab has already been administered to patients with chronic kidney disease or rheumatoid arthritis. The current study will be the first study where ziltivekimab will be given to healthy participants.
The investigators want to investigate the reliability (variability) of a new device, that should be able to measure lower leg compartment pressure non-invasively. Therefore the tool is used under different circumstances. The introduced differences in circumstances are: - Measurements at several time points - Measurements using different anatomical landmarks - Measurements by different researchers - Measurements in rest and after exercise This study's results are important to create a reliable measurement tools for patients with lower leg symptoms. In this way the diagnosis can be improved and as well the treatments given to the patients. It is expected that the variability of the device will be low compared to current techniques.
Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is a bacterial respiratory infection that patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) often get when they cannot breathe for themselves and require mechanical ventilation. It is linked to higher chances of death, a longer stay in the hospital, higher costs, and the use of more antibiotics. Options to help prevent or treat this disease are in development and will require evaluation in future clinical trials. The goal of POS-VAP is to build and continuously train a network of ICUs to be prepared for doing these trials, to facilitate their execution.
The MRI scan is one of the most important tools for diagnosing multiple sclerosis (MS) and for monitoring disease progression and medication effects. Increasingly strong MRI magnets (higher field strength) enable us to see abnormalities in the brain in greater detail. On the other hand, it poses challenges because these higher field strength MRIs are more sensitive to disturbances, for example due to motion, including physiological motion such as breathing and swallowing. In current practice, field strengths of up to 3 Tesla are common. The aim of this study is to compare scanning at field strengths of 3 Tesla in 10 MS patients at two different moments (baseline and 6 months) with scanning at field strengths that are higher, namely 7 and 9.4 Tesla, in order to identify the advantages and disadvantages. With the further development of this technique, the investigators may be able to make a better diagnosis in the future and detect subtle changes in the course of the disease more quickly in order to optimize treatments.
An Open-label Study of GBT021601 in 8 to 10 healthy male or female participants to evaluate the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) of GBT021601.
Exertional heat stroke (EHS) is the most serious form of heat-illness that can occur during sports and exercise. If not recognized and treated immediately mortality rate of EHS is high. Early recognition and initiation of cooling are paramount. If temperature is reduced to < 40°C within 30 minutes of symptom onset, most patients recover completely. There are several strategies for cooling in EHS, including cooling with rotating in ice water soaked towels which cover the body of a patient. The aim of this research is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of treatment of EHS with ice water soaked towels to lower body temperature.
Determine the kinetics of fructose metabolism and its role as a metabolic substrate following a high (100gr/day) vs low fructose diet (<30 gram fructose intake per day isocaloric correction with dextrose) in type 2 diabetic subjects of SAS or Caucasian ethnicity.
