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 ICONIC-M study is a multicenter randomized controlled study to assess patient response to CRT comparing ECGI map guided left ventricular lead placement with empirical lead placement. The hypothesis of the investigation is to demonstrate that CRT LV lead implantation guided by a map obtained with the Amycard 01C System and showing LV Latest Electrical Activated Site (LEAS) in combination with a CT cardiac venogram improves CRT outcome. An improved CRT outcome is defined as a ≥30% increase in LVESVi reduction compared to empiric CRT LV lead implantation. The sample size will be 136 in the Control arm and 194 in the Active arm. A total of 330 subjects. The study follows an adaptive design, in where one interim analysis at 70% enrollment will be performed. The sponsor may stop enrollment when either one of the following conditions apply: - Statistical significant difference between groups in the primary endpoint has been reached confirming a difference in reduction of the LVESVi of ≥30% in the Active arm compared to the Control arm - There is no trend or reason to believe statistical significance will be reached with a higher sample size. Statistical significance (primary endpoint) is reached at interim (70%) or at total (100%) of enrollment with a significance value P lower than 0.025.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LY3473329 in adult participants with elevated Lp(a) at high risk for cardiovascular events.
Monocenter randomized controlled trial to compare the effect of deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB) versus moderate NMB during total hip replacement surgery on postoperative quality of recovery and innate immune function.
The purpose of this 20-week randomized double-blind study in patients with resistant hypertension (rHTN) is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability, of different doses of XXB750 administered as subcutaneous (SC) injections, compared to placebo. Since all study participants will be patients with rHTN, all study treatments will be given on top of maximally tolerated background antihypertensive therapy recommended by international guidelines for treatment of HTN (i.e., a thiazide or a thiazide-like diuretic, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and a long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB).
In this study the sustained effect of food texture differences (slow vs fast eating rate) of ultra-processed foods on energy intake and body composition changes will be investigated.
The primary objective is to determine whether in patients with CIPN pain, treatment with Qutenza has the same effect as treatment with duloxetine 60 mg daily.
This study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of single ascending, and fixed repeated doses of N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) in healthy subjects, when given by intravenous (IV) infusion.
To assess the safety and efficacy of in-laboratory clopidogrel loading dose administration before ad-hoc PCI versus clopidogrel preloading treatment in patients planned for diagnostic angiography with optional ad-hoc PCI.
This study is open to adults aged 18 and older or above legal age who have systemic sclerosis. People can participate if they have a specific subtype called diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis. People with another subtype called limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis can also participate if they are anti Scl-70 antibody positive. Systemic sclerosis is also called scleroderma. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat (BI 685509) helps people with scleroderma who have symptoms due to lung fibrosis or vascular problems. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. One group takes Avenciguat (BI 685509) tablets 3 times a day and the other group takes placebo tablets 3 times a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 685509 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets for at least 11 months. Afterwards, participants can continue to take the tablets until the last participant has completed the 11-months treatment period. This means that the time in the study and duration of treatment is different for each participant, depending on when they start the study. At the beginning of the study, participants visit the study site every 2 weeks. The time between the visits to the study site gets longer over the course of the study. After the 11-months treatment period, participants visit the study site every 3 months. During the study, participants regularly do lung function tests. The results are compared between the 2 groups to see whether the treatment works. The participants also regularly fill in questionnaires about their scleroderma symptoms. The doctors regularly check participants' skin condition and general health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Rationale: Many persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) develop a progressive resistance to levodopa, which is the pharmacological mainstay of PD treatment. Recently, two enzymatic pathways have been identified that could be (partially) responsible for this: 1) breakdown of levodopa by bacterial tyrosine decarboxylase (TDC), an enzyme which normally decarboxylates dietary tyrosine but which is also able to decarboxylate levodopa. Accumulation of bacterial TDC in the small intestine, such as in the context of small-intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) - for which persons with PD are at increased risk - has the potential to prematurely metabolize levodopa, hence limiting its bioavailability and effect. 2) paradoxical induction of activity of the enzyme aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) in chronic users of levodopa combined with a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor, also leading to a premature breakdown of levodopa and limitation of its bioavailability and effect. Primary objective: in a cross-sectional sample of advanced (≥5 years) Parkinson's disease determining the prevalence of increased bacterial TDC activity in feces, and the prevalence of increased AADC activity in serum. Secondary objective: correlating these biomarkers to clinical parameters, correlating composition of the microbiome to TDC activity, to the presence of levodopa resistance, and to factors related to socio-economic status. Study design: using feces, serum samples and clinical data from n=50 participants, the relevant enzymes' activity will be measured and the composition of the gut microbiome will be determined. These will be correlated to the clinical and demographic parameters.
