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.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a group of lung cancers that have spread to nearby tissues or to other parts of the body. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) are proteins that help cells to grow and divide. A damage (also called mutation) to the building plans (genes) for these proteins in cancer cells leads to a production of abnormal EGFR and/or HER2. These abnormal proteins drive the growth and the spread of the cancer. Several EGFR and/or HER2 mutations exist in the cancer cells. The study treatment, BAY2927088, is expected to block the mutated EGFR and HER2 proteins which may stop the spread of NSCLC. The main purpose of this study is to learn: Escalation, Backfill, and Expansion Part: - How safe is BAY2927088 for the participants? - What is the highest dose of BAY2927088 that can be tolerated (maximum tolerated dose) by or given to (maximum administered dose) the participants? - How does BAY2927088 move into, through, and out of the bodies of the participants? For this, the researchers will measure the followings: - The number of participants with medical problems, also called adverse events and serious adverse events, and their severity - The number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an adverse event. - The highest dose of BAY2927088 that the participants can take without having adverse events (maximum tolerated dose (MTD)) or the maximum dose that is tested and found to be safe for the participants in case MTD cannot be found out (maximum administered dose (MAD)) of BAY2927088 - Number of participants experiencing adverse events that prevent an increase in the dose of BAY2927088 (dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)) at each dose level - The (average) total level of BAY2927088 in the blood (also called AUC) after receiving single or multiple doses of BAY 2927088 - The (average) highest level of BAY 2927088 in the blood (also called Cmax) after receiving a single or multiple doses of BAY2927088 Extension Part - How well does BAY 2927088 work in participants? For this, the researchers will measure the following: • Percentage of participants whose cancer completely disappears (complete response) or reduces by at least 30% (partial response) after taking the treatment (also known as objective response rate (ORR)). This will be assessed by doctors other than the study doctor. This study has 4 parts: - The escalation part aims to find the maximum daily amount (dose) of BAY2927088 that participants can receive. - The backfill part aims to test the doses of BAY2927088 that are considered safe in the escalation part by giving it to more participants. This will help find optimal doses of BAY 2927088 that work well and are safe to be tested in the next part. - The expansion part aims to determine the dose of BAY2927088 to be tested in further studies. - The extension part aims to determine whether the selected dose of BAY2927088 from the expansion part works well. The participants in this study will take the study treatment BAY2927088 in 3-week periods called "cycles". They will in general take BAY2927088 once or twice daily as a liquid/tablet by mouth until their cancer gets worse, they have medical problems, they leave the study, or the study is terminated. Participants will have no more than 5 visits per cycle. During the study, the study team will: - take blood and urine samples, - check the status of the cancer by doing computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, - check the participants' overall health and heart health, - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is considered "serious" when it leads to death, puts the participant's life at risk, requires hospitalization, causes disability, causes a baby being born with medical problems, or is medically important.
The protocol, in accordance with the objectives of ORCHESTRA project - Work Package 2, aims at investigating the characteristics and determinants of COVID-19 long-term sequelae. This goal will be reached through the harmonization of follow-up strategies across the participating cohorts to allow a standardized collection of data on COVID-19 long-term sequelae. The result will be a platform including a set of data and biomaterials from large scale international cohorts, that will be uniformly recorded, prospectively tracked and analysed. The ultimate goal will be that of providing evidence to contribute to the optimization and improvement of the management and prevention of COVID-19 sequelae. The follow-up will be organized in multiple levels of tests, according to the capability of each cohort, and will include questionnaires to collect demographic, epidemiological and clinical data, physical examination, radiological exams and biological sampling. The long-term follow-up will also allow the assessment of long-term immunological response to SARS-CoV-2 infection and its association to the vaccination and to different treatment strategies, including monoclonal antibodies.
The protocol describes a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with independent sub-studies of setmelanotide in patients with obesity and at least one of the specific gene variants in the Melanocortin-4 Receptor pathway: - POMC or PCSK1 (Sub-study 035a) - LEPR (Sub-study 035b) - SRC1 (Sub-study 035c) - SH2B1 (Sub-study 035d) The objectives and endpoints are identical for these sub-studies.
Radioembolization (RE) is a minimally invasive treatment with administration of radioactive microspheres into the hepatic artery via a microcatheter. Since tumors are preferentially supplied by the hepatic artery, most microspheres get trapped in the tumor. RE has been shown a feasible and safe procedure for the treatment of unresectable CRC liver metastases. These data compare favourably with the toxicity data of capecitabine plus bevacizumab, but this should be validated in a prospective study. The proposed study investigates the efficacy of RE as an alternative, better tolerated and more cost-effective treatment option in elderly or frail patients compared to chronic systemic treatment with comparable progression-free survival.
Extra tissue will be taken from patient during a procedure in standard of care. Also, through an existing line, 10ml of extra blood will be drawn. From this material the investigator will try to establish matched normal and primary human lung cancer organoids.
This Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study is intended to evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability and PK of INCB000928 administered to participants with a clinical diagnosis of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP).
16a-18F-fluoro-17b-estradiol ([18F]FES) is radioactive labeled estradiol, developed for in vivo visualization of the estrogen receptor (ER) using positron emission tomography (PET). To date, [18F]FES PET has been mainly explored as a diagnostic imaging tool to assess ER expression, thereby identifying locations of disease and their potential sensitivity to endocrine therapy, respectively. The primary aim of this project is to extend the application of [18F]FES PET as a baseline diagnostic imaging biomarker for ER expression to use it as an (early) treatment response marker. However, for such an application, visual assessment alone may not be sufficient and a more rigorous quantitative image analysis is needed. Therefore, in this project we shall first derive the optimal pharmacokinetic model for full quantitative analysis of [18F]FES uptake and, subsequently, we shall assess the validity of simplified, clinically feasible, quantitative parameters of [18F]FES uptake in 5 patients with metastatic estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer (part A). In addition, the repeatability of these simplified parameters will then be investigated in another 10 patients (part B).
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1/Phase 2, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and anti-leukemic activity of SAR443579 in various hematological malignancies.
Olaparib is a poly-adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, originally used for the maintenance treatment of women with platinum-sensitive relapsed breast cancer gene (BRCA)-mutated high grade serious epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer, who are in response to platinum-based chemotherapy. Over the last two years, several therapeutic indications have been added to the drug label, such as first-line platinum-sensitive BRCA-mutated high grade serious epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer, germline BRCA1/2-mutated, human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2-)negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and BRCA1/2-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, who have progressed following prior therapy. Since olaparib is very expensive, this increase of treatment population will have a significant impact on health care expenditures. To keep healthcare affordable and accessible for all patients, innovative strategies are warranted to reduce the dose of expensive drugs, without reduction of efficacy. For olaparib, pharmacokinetic (PK) boosting can be applied. PK boosting is the lay term for administering a non-therapeutic active strong inhibitor of a metabolic enzyme, for example the cytochrome p450 enzyme 3A (CYP3A), together with a therapeutic drug that is metabolized by the same enzyme. Boosting thus increases the concentration of the therapeutic drug and allows lower doses to be administered to patients. Hence, coadministration of a reduced dose of olaparib with cobicistat, a non-therapeutic, strong inhibitor of the CYP3A can lead to equivalent exposure to olaparib. Furthermore, inhibition of CYP3A could lead to less PK variability since metabolic capacity is a prominent cause for (intra- and inter-individual) variability in systemic exposure. Predictable olaparib exposure will reduce the number of patients who are unintentionally under- or overtreated. Lastly, tumor tissue itself may express CYP3A as a detoxification or resistance mechanism. Theoretically, PK boosting may also overcome CYP3A-mediated drug resistance. The purpose of this study is to establish the efficacy, safety and feasibility of co-administering olaparib with the PK booster cobicistat with the aim to implement boosting approach for olaparib in routine practice. The study is subdivided in two parts. In part A of the study the equivalent exposure of boosted low dose olaparib is determined compared to the normal dose. In part B of the study, non-inferiority of the boosted olaparib regimen will be confirmed.
