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 determine whether CPC634 (CriPec® docetaxel) is effective in the treatment of patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer who are resistant to prior platinum-based chemotherapy .
This study will collect data on bleeds and data related to quality of life in people with severe congenital (a disease existing from birth) haemophilia A and B, with or without inhibitors. The aim for the study is to look at the number of bleeds when on usual treatment for haemophilia. Participants will be asked to keep an electronic diary to track the number of bleeds and the treatment of their bleeds. Participants will be asked to wear an activity tracker on their wrist to capture their level of activity every day for up to 12 weeks. While taking part in this study, participants will keep getting their usual treatment as given to them by their doctor. All study visits at the clinic are done in the same way as the participants are used to. In the time between the participants' visits to the clinic, the study staff at the clinic may call or email the participant. The study will last for about 2½ years.
Optimal understanding of piperacillin-tazobactam pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients is lacking resulting in large variation of achieved exposure and possible inadequate therapy. The investigators hypothesize that drug dosing based on CKD-EPIcr-cys provides a useful method to individualize and optimize therapy for piperacillin-tazobactam and eventually improve outcome. In a multi-centre, observational, open-label study the investigators aim to define PK of free drug concentrations of both piperacillin and tazobactam in ICU patients and define a PK model for estimation of renal function that most accurately predicts piperacillin and tazobactam clearance.
This study will evaluate upadacitinib compared to dupilumab (Dupixent®) in adults with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who are candidates for systemic therapy.
The investigators aim to analyze the physiological segmental motion of the lumbar spine during flexion and extension cinematographic recordings of asymptomatic individuals.
Computed Tomography (CT) is widely used in abdominal imaging for a variety of indications. Contrast media (CM) is used to enhance vascular structures and organ parenchyma. Attenuation of the liver makes it possible to recognize hypo- and hypervascular lesions, which are often invisible on unenhanced CT images. Lesions can only be detected in case they are large enough and the contrast with the background is high enough. Heiken et al. showed already in 1995 that a difference in Hounsfield Units (HU) of at least 50 HU is needed to be able to recognize liver lesions [1]. On the other hand, patients should not receive more CM than necessarily, because of possible underlying physiological effects [2-4]. Although there has been some controversy about this recently, there is no need to give patients more CM than needed, because of increased costs, no quality improvement and their might still be a relationship with contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) [5]. Recent publications suggested individualization of injection protocols that can be based on either total body weight (TBW) or lean body weight (LBW) [6-9]. In the investigators department an injection protocol based on TBW is currently used. Besides the CM injection parameters, scanner parameters are of influence on the attenuation as well. Because of recent technical developments it became possible to reach a good image quality (IQ) at lower tube voltages [10]. When the x-ray output comes closer to the 33 keV k-edge of Iodine, attenuation increases. In short, decreasing the tube voltage increases the attenuation of iodine. Scanning at a lower tube voltage therefore gives rise to even lower CM volumes. Lastly, it would be revolutionary to accomplish a liver enhancement that is homogenous, sufficient for lesion detection and comparable between patients and in the same patients, regardless of weight and scanner settings used.
This is a first in human study to identify whether FP-1305 is suitable to use in humans. The previous pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that FP-1305 binds to a receptor known as CLEVER-1. CLEVER-1 has been shown to support tumour growth. No significant adverse events were witnessed in primates and the dose used will be 300 fold lower than the dose provided to primates which showed no toxicity. The patients with advanced melanoma, uveal melanoma, cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder cancer, ER+ breast, gastric, ovarian, pancreatic, colorectal, liver or anaplastic thyroid cancer who have exhausted all licenced therapeutic options will die due to their disease. Based on the investigator's existing data CLEVER-1 is expressed in these tumour types. Inhibition of CLEVER-1 with FP-1305 may have an anti-tumour effect in these patients.
This study evaluates the existence of a day-night rhythm in skeletal muscle energy metabolism in prediabetic subjects. Subjects will stay at the research facility for 44 hours with a standardized living protocol during which several measurements of skeletal muscle and whole body energy metabolism will be performed.
The aim of this study is to quantify and characterize the outcomes of radiofrequency (RF) ablation after, and the utility of electroanatomical mapping with the Advisor™ HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled™ (hereafter called "HD Grid") and EnSite Precision™ Cardiac Mapping System (SV 2.2 or higher, hereafter called "EnSite Precision") with HD Wave Solution™ voltage mapping (hereafter called "HD Wave Solution") in subjects with persistent atrial fibrillation (PersAF) or ventricular tachycardia (VT) in real-world clinical settings.
Due to breathing and other motions, tumours, such as breast and lung cancer, as well as their surrounding organs (e.g. the heart), move, which poses a challenge for radiotherapy treatment. Reducing or even stopping breathing, e.g. by irradiating during inspiration, is a way to decrease tumour and organ motion resulting in a reliable target coverage with smaller margins. These smaller margins can result in a better sparing of normal tissues. Furthermore, in some patients, during inspiration, the heart may move away from the target volume making it possible to better spare the heart. Finally, during inspiration, the lung volume is larger and the lung density is lower, which can lead to a lower dose to the surrounding normal lung tissue. Reduction of radiation dose to normal tissues leads to less radiation-induced toxicity. This makes treating breast and lung cancer patients in breath hold (BH) conditions an attractive strategy. Standard BH durations in RT treatment are around 20 seconds, which is not enough to perform a complete CBCT. The health status of lung cancer patients is generally worse compared to breast cancer patients, making it more difficult to treat this patient group during breath hold. Nasal High Flow Therapy (NHFT) is a non-invasive system that provides controlled oxygen concentrations and low levels of positive pressure via a nasal interface. NHFT improves oxygenation in diverse patient groups, and is increasingly used as an alternative to mechanical ventilatory support. It has been shown to be a safe device in several clinical situations and patient populations, such as COPD patients, but also in apneic conditions under general anesthesia.
