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 2 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study assessing the efficacy and safety of lenabasum for the treatment of cystic fibrosis in patients 12 years of age or older. Approximately 415 subjects will be enrolled in this study at about 100 sites in North America, and Europe. The planned duration of treatment with study drug is 28 weeks. Study drug will be lenabasum 20 mg BID, lenabasum 5 mg BID, and placebo in a 2:1:2 ratio.
Study of late physical, psychological and social effects in patients treated with ipilimumab for advanced (stage IV or unresectable stage III) melanoma.
Patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) suitable for endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) with Treovance were eligible to participate. Main inclusion criteria were: age 18-85 years; infrarenal AAA without significant infrarenal or distal iliac landing neck calcification or thrombus formation; infrarenal or distal iliac landing neck size requirements specified in the instructions for use. Main exclusion criteria: dissection/ruptured aneurysm or prior AAA endovascular or surgical repair. The primary endpoints were standard EVAR criteria.
The purpose of this Phase 1b/2a study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of MYK-491 in patients with stable heart failure.
GSK1795091 is being developed for administration in combination with other immune system modulators for the treatment of cancers. The study will be conducted in two parts. In Part 1, dose escalation will be performed to identify combination dose levels comprising GSK1795091 with either 24 milligrams (mg) GSK3174998 (Part 1a), 80 mg GSK3359609 (Part 1b), or 200 mg pembrolizumab (Part 1c). One dose level of GSK3174998, GSK3359609, or pembrolizumab with up to 5 dose levels of GSK1795091 are planned for evaluation. In Part 2 (dose-expansion), subjects will receive a single dose level of GSK1795091 as identified based on data from Part 1, in combination with either GSK3174998, GSK3359609, or pembrolizumab.
The aim of the study is to establish if human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected adult participants with current virologic suppression on a >=3-drug tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) based regimen (TBR) remain suppressed upon switching to a two-drug regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) 50 milligram (mg) + lamivudine (3TC) 300 mg. This study will also provide important information regarding the safety and participant satisfaction with this two-drug regimen. The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the non-inferior antiviral activity of switching to DTG + 3TC once daily compared to continuation of TBR over 48 weeks in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral therapy (ART)-experienced, virologically suppressed participants. This study also will characterize the long-term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG + 3TC compared to TBR through Week 144 and characterize the long-term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG + 3TC through Week 200. This will be a 200-week, Phase III, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter, parallel- group study. The study will include a screening phase (up to 28 days), a randomized early switch phase (Day 1 up to Week 148), a randomized late switch phase (Week 148 up to Week 200), and a continuation phase (post Week 200). HIV-1 infected adults on stable TBR will be randomized 1:1 to switch to DTG + 3TC once daily for up to 200 weeks, or to continue their TBR for 148 weeks, at which time and if HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) <50 copies per milliliter (c/mL) at Week 144, these participants will switch to DTG + 3TC up to Week 200.
Hyperglycemia is a well-known cardiovascular risk factor. It has also been shown that episodes of hyperglycemia increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases despite return to normoglycemia, a phenomenon termed 'glycemic or metabolic memory'. The molecular mechanism underlying this phenomenon remains unclear. Cardiovascular events, such as myocardial infarction and stroke are caused by atherosclerosis, which is characterized by low grade inflammation of the vascular wall, including accumulation of innate immune cells such as monocytes and macrophages. The investigators hypothesize that chronic hyperglycemia shifts intracellular metabolism of innate immune cells towards glycolysis and changes the epigenetic state of (progenitors of) innate immune cells (monocytes and macrophages), which reprograms these cells towards a more aggressive, pro-atherogenic phenotype, thereby accelerating atherosclerosis. In this study, the investigators aim to test this hypothesis. This research will reveal whether the innate immune cells of patients with chronic hyperglycemia show a durable shift in intracellular metabolism and epigenetic changes and whether this associates with vascular inflammation.
This study evaluates the effect of a specific, multidisciplinary and personalized rehabilitation program compared to usual care, on motor control and functional disability in patients with neuralgic amyotrophy. Half of the participants will start with the 17-week specific rehabilitation program while the other half will first continue their usual care for 17 weeks, after which they will also receive the 17-week specific rehabilitation program.
Children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) often walk with insufficient ankle dorsiflexion in the swing phase. A pathological gait, known as drop-foot gait, can be the result and this has 2 major complications: foot-slap during loading response and toe-drag during swing. This is partly caused by weakness of the anterior tibial muscle and partly due to co-contraction of both the fibular- and anterior tibial muscle. For classification of gait, the Winters scale can be used, where unilateral CP with dropfoot is classified as type I. In daily life these problems cause limited walking distance and frequent falls, leading to restrictions in participating in daily life. The current guideline for spastic cerebral palsy describes the following therapies: 1) conservative therapy (physiotherapy, orthopaedic shoes and orthoses) 2) drugs suppressing spasticity 3) surgical interventions. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) may be an effective alternative treatment for children with spastic CP and a drop foot. By stimulating the fibular nerve or the anterior tibial muscle directly during the swing phase, dorsiflexion of the foot is stimulated. In contrast to bracing, FES does not restrict motion, but does produce muscle contraction, and thus has the potential to increase strength and motor control through repetitive neural stimulation over time. In a systematic review the investigators found that FES immediately improves ankle dorsal flexion and reduces falls and these effects also sustain. However, it should be noted that the level of evidence is limited. Until now, the use of FES in CP is limited and no data exist about the effects on walking distance (activity level) and participation level. The overall objective of this study is to conduct a randomised cross-over intervention trial in children with unilateral spastic CP with 12 weeks of FES (for every participant) and 18 weeks of conventional therapy. The effectiveness of FES will be examined at participation leven, using individual goal attainment. Next to that the effect at gait will be measured. An additional goal is to investigate the cost effectiveness of FES, which, in case of a positive effect, may support allowance by insurance companies.
Physical inactivity is considered to be one of the ten principal risk factors for death worldwide. Children need to perform one hour of daily moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity whereof at least twice a week these activities are of vigorous intensity. In 2010, the percentage of 4-11 year-old normoactive Dutch children was approximately 20%.Previous interventions that aimed to increase childhood physical activity produced small to negligible effects. One possible explanation is that individuals were not intrinsically motivated towards physical activity during the intervention period. Children spend a substantial amount of their time behind a game consule. There are a number of applications that motivate increase in physical activity in a fun way through engaging individuals in games that mix real and computing worlds. These games became known as serious games. In this study we want to investigate if the incorporation of a serious game BOOSTH in combination with an activity tracker and battle to stimulate physical activity behaviour in primary school children (grades 5th to 7th).
