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.
Despite consistent evidence that mental illness runs in families, intergenerational transmission of risk of mental illness is rarely considered in clinical practice. Neither preventive programs for children of parents with mental illness are usually implemented in care, nor supportive programs for parenting. Furthermore, parents with mental illness are not always aware of how their disorder may impact the well-being of their children. To date, the needs for counseling, care and research in parents with mental illness and family members of people with mental illness are unclear. Therefore, this prospective qualitative interview study aims to gain insights into the perceptions and experiences of (future) parents with mental illness, partners and family members of people with mental illness about risk for and resilience against mental illness in (future) children, as well as their needs for counseling, care and research.
In the present study, we aim to analyze the impact of the introduction of a urinary dipstick test for patients presenting with uncomplicated UTI-associated symptoms on antibiotic prescription in primary health care in Indonesia. In addition, the knowledge of HCW regarding antibiotics and prudent use of antibiotics in the community setting will be investigated. Specific aims of the study: 1. To analyze the quality of antibiotic prescriptions for uncomplicated UTI in the primary health care settings in Indonesia, before introduction of urinary dipstick testing compared to after introduction of urinary dipstick testing. 2. To analyze the knowledge level of healthcare workers on uncomplicated UTI and prudent antibiotic use in primary health care settings in Indonesia.
The main objective of this study is to study the bioavailability and kinetics of acute Aronia Melanocarpa supplementation in healthy young (18-35 years) and older adults (55-75 years) adults. During the test day, participants will ingest a drink consisting of Aronia Melanocarpa extract (AME). The bioavailability and kinetics of AME will be assessed via frequent blood sampling, urine collection, and faecal sampling, in which AME and metabolite profiles will be quantified.
This study aims to investigate the impact of providing discrete vibrotactile feedback related to weight shift and step initiation on exoskeleton use in individuals with motor-complete SCI.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous infusions of burfiralimab (hzVSF-v13) when added to Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drug (DMARD) treatment as Standard of Care (SOC) in participants with moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).
Kawasaki disease (KD) is currently the leading cause of acquired heart diseases in children in developed countries. Cardiac involvement is the main determinant of the long-term prognosis of these patients, as coronary aneurisms (CAAs) may lead to ischemic heart disease and even sudden death. The current standard of care for KD has consistently reduced CAAs frequency from 25-30% to about 5%. Unfortunately, 10-20% of KD patients results resistant to standard treatment leading to a major risk of cardiac complications. Thus, scoring systems have been constructed in order to identify patients likely to be resistant to IVIG and who may benefit from more aggressive initial therapy. Different scoring scales developed by Kobayashi, Egami et Sano had shown a good sensitivity (77-86%) and specificity (67-86%) in predicting IVIG unresponsiveness in Japanese populations. However, their predictive value was not confirmed by subsequent studies in different ethnic populations. Recently, the French Kawanet group have proposed a IVIG unresponsiveness score that provided good sensitivity and acceptable specificity in a non-Asian KD population even if it was not subsequent validated by an external study. In our study population, the achievement of specificity and sensitivity values for both scores consistent with those reported by the original studies (sensitivity 70% and specificity 80% for Kobayashi and sensitivity 77% and specificity 60% for Kawanet), will be considered a success.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of ALZ-801 in Early Alzheimer's disease (AD) subjects with the APOE4/4 genotype. This is an open-label trial of treatment with ALZ-801.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) claims 10% of global cancer-related deaths annually, with rising incidence. Locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) requires improved diagnostic techniques. This study focuses on dual-wavelength quantitative fluorescence molecular endoscopy (qFME) using PD-1/PD-L1-targeted tracers for LARC patients undergoing neoadjuvant treatment. Eighteen patients will receive nivolumab-800CW and durvalumab-680LT before qFME procedures, assessing programmed death-1/programmed death ligand-1 (PD-1/PD-L1) expression. We want to test the feasibility of qFME and ex vivo fluorescence imaging after intravenous administration of nivolumab-800CW, targeting PD-1, and durvalumab-680LT, targeting PD-L1, to visualize PD-L1 and PD-1 expression before and after CRT in LARC patients. If successful, this method can potentially be used in the future to see which patients most likely benefit from additional immunotherapy beforehand. The non-randomized, prospective phase 1 intervention explores biomarkers' role in treatment response prediction. Tracer administration poses minimal risks. Patients will not directly benefit, but the study aims to establish the utility of nivolumab-800CW and durvalumab-680LT in determining PD-1/PD-L1 expression during endoscopy.
Thymic epithelial tumors are rare neoplasms in the anterior mediastinum. The cornerstone of the treatment is surgical resection. Administration of postoperative radiotherapy is usually indicated in patients with more extensive local disease, incomplete resection and/or more aggressive subtypes, defined by the WHO histopathological classification. In this classification thymoma types A, AB, B1, B2, B3, and thymic carcinoma are distinguished. Studies have shown large discordances between pathologists in subtyping these tumors. Moreover, the WHO classification alone does not accurately predict the risk of recurrence, as within subtypes patients have divergent prognoses. The investigators will develop AI models using digital pathology and relevant clinical variables to improve the accuracy of histopathological classification of thymic epithelial tumors, and to better predict the risk of recurrence. In this multicentric and international project three existing databases will be used from Rotterdam, Maastricht and Lyon. For all models one database will be used to build AI models, and the other two for external validation. The ultimate goal of this project is to develop AI models that support the pathologist in correctly subtyping thymic epithelial tumors, in order to prevent patients from under- or overtreatment with adjuvant radiotherapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the impact of a continuous vibrotactile feedback belt on balance, (fear of) falling, fatigue and overall functioning in participants with chronic disabling unilateral vestibular hypofunction. The main questions it aims to answer are: • does wearing a vibrotactile feedback belt during waking hours for a week improve sense of balance and mobility, fear of falling, fatigue and overall functioning • does wearing a vibrotactile feedback belt influence static and dynamic balance and gait performance during balance and gait testing. Participants will goes through different phases in an randomized order; a baseline phase, a sham phase (i.e., wearing the BalanceBelt while it is switched off) and an intervention phase (i.e., wearing the BalanceBelt while it is switched on). It is expected that, just as with patients with bilateral loss of the balance organ, patients with a unilateral loss will also benefit from the BalanceBelt.
