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 project aims to improve physical performance in older patients, by offering a personalized combined nutritional intervention with a physical activity training program. The intervention starts at hospital admittance and is continued after discharge in the home care setting, supported by an e-health application.
Healthcare workers have a high workload as compared to other sectors and this burden is projected to increase due to an aging society. It is and will in the future be challenging to deliver optimal HF care because of personnel shortages, the high costs of healthcare, intensive GDMT uptitration schedules, and an epidemic rise in HF patients.This study aims to evaluate the impact of digital consultations (DC) on efficiency and clinical impact in heart failure (HF) patients. A randomized controlled trial on multifaceted digital consults including 1) digital data sharing (e.g. exchange of pharmacotherapy use, home measured vital signs, etc), 2) patient education via an eLearning, and 3) digital guideline recommendations to treating physicians. Included patients will be randomly (1:1) assigned to the intervention group or standard care. The ADMINISTER trial is expected to offer the first robust randomized controlled multicenter data of GDMT prescription rates, time till full GDMT optimization, time spent on healthcare, patient satisfaction and quality of life of digital consults in GDMT optimization.
This is an open-label extension of the parent studies AROAPOC3-2001 and AROAPOC3-2002. Adult participants with dyslipidemia who completed the blinded 12-month period from either parent study and continue to meet eligibility criteria have the option to be enrolled into this study. Eligible enrolled participants will initially receive open-label ARO-APOC3 at the assigned dose level until a final dose is selected, at which point all participants will be transitioned to the selected dosing regimen.
This study will assess absorption, metabolism, and excretion of Radioactively Labeled Etrumadenant in healthy volunteers.
Follicular Lymphoma (FL) is the second most common B-cell cancer and the most common type of cancer of lymphocytes. Unfortunately, this disease is incurable with conventional treatment and the disease recurs in almost all patients. This study will assess how safe and effective epcoritamab is in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab (R2) in treating adult participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) FL. Adverse events and change in disease condition will be assessed. Epcoritamab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of FL. Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 3 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. Enrollment to one of the groups is closed. Around 500 adult participants with R/R FL will be enrolled in approximately 300 sites across the world. Participants will receive R2 (375 mg/m^2 intravenous infusion of rituximab up to 5 cycles and oral capsules of 20 mg lenalidomide for up to 12 cycles) alone or in combination with subcutaneous injections of epcoritamab for up to 12 cycles (each cycle is 28 days). There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
A prospective, two-arm, multi-center, randomized, open-label, pre-market, First-in-Human clinical study designed to provide safety and performance data regarding the use of the Adagio PFA and PFCA Systems in the treatment of PsAF.
Chronic knee pain remains a disabling disease despite current treatment strategies. There is an increase in the prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in the general population, presently affecting approximately 450,000 individuals in Belgium. A total knee replacement is a viable alternative for severe knee OA that does not respond to conservative therapy. Unfortunately, up to 53% of patients who undergo a total knee replacement develop persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP). There is currently no effective therapy for PPSP. A radiofrequency (RF) treatment applies high frequency current on the nerve responsible for pain conduction, resulting in an interruption of the transmission of pain. This can be applied to the nerves innervating the knee joint - the superolateral, superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves - and could be an alternative, minimally invasive treatment for patients with knee OA who fail conservative treatments and for patients with PPSP. Data from the recent literature indicates that this treatment leads to a reduction of pain intensity and could result in an improvement of knee function, of the psychological state of the individual, and finally in an increase in health-related quality of life. Furthermore, RF of the genicular nerves could help avoid or delay a total knee replacement therefore potentially contributing to cost reduction. Both cooled and conventional RF treatments are reported in the literature to improve pain. The use of water to cool the RF electrodes results in an increased lesion size by removing heat from adjacent tissue, allowing power delivery to be increased. As a consequence, cooled RF could result in a higher chance of success and longer duration of effect. Until now, the studies performed on cooled RF are industry initiated and a direct comparison between conventional, cooled and a sham procedure is lacking. The aim of the COGENIUS trial is to investigate the effect of the two types of RF treatment on individuals experiencing chronic knee pain that is resistant to conservative treatments. For this purpose, the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of cooled and conventional RF will be compared to a sham procedure in patients suffering from knee OA and PPSP after total knee replacement.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of CORT113176 (dazucorilant) in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
Patellar tendinopathy (PT) is a tendon overuse injury with high prevalence rates in elite and recreational athletes. PT sometimes results in a prolonged absence from sport participation, hampering individuals to achieve their desired performance levels and to benefit from the health related effects of sports participation. Many treatment options are used but management of PT remains challenging. Current treatment involves progressive education, load management and tendon loading exercises (PTLE). Recent studies have shown that nutrition can positively affect collagen synthesis in musculoskeletal tissues. A study showed that supplementing 15g of gelatine combined with 50mg of Vitamin C, 1 hour before loading exercises, resulted in an increase in whole body collagen synthesis and increased mechanics and collagen content of human engineered ligaments. However the effectiveness of oral supplementation of hydrolysed collagen in combination with vitamin C in athletes with PT has not been studied in a randomized controlled trial yet. Objective: The primary aim of this RCT is to evaluate whether the use of oral supplementation of hydrolysed collagen/vitamin C in addition to usual care (education, load management and PTLE) is superior to usual care and placebo on VISA-P score after 12, 24 and 52 weeks for athletes with PT. The secondary aim of this RCT is to evaluate whether the use of oral supplementation of hydrolysed collagen/vitamin C in addition to usual care (education, load management and PTLE) is superior to usual care and placebo on other clinical outcome parameters, functional tests and tendon structure after 12 and 24 weeks for athletes with PT.
This prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized phase-II-trial investigates in clinical practice the differences between intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) and standard intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) or volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in the effects on dose-volume parameters and treatment-related morbidity for women with locally advanced cervical cancer undergoing chemoradiation.
