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 purpose of the BIOLUX P-III BENELUX Registry is to further investigate the safety and clinical performance of the Passeo-18 Lux Drug Coated Ballon when used in daily clinical practice for the treatment of isolated atherosclerotic lesion (vessel narrowing) in popliteal arteries
Study design: A double-blind randomised placebo-controlled trial Intervention: Randomized placebo controlled treatment of 20 HS patients of which fifteen patients will be randomized to apremilast and five patients to placebo. The total duration of the treatment period per subject is 16 weeks. Primary objectives: To evaluate the expression profile of inflammatory cytokines in HS lesional skin at week four (t=4) and week sixteen (t=16): - of patients receiving apremilast compared to placebo; - within both groups relative to baseline (t=0). Secondary objectives: - To prospectively evaluate the clinical efficacy of apremilast. - To assess the effect of apremilast on patient reported outcomes measures. - To assess the short-term safety and tolerability of apremilast in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa.
It has been suggested that mitochondrial dysfunction might play a role in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. From animal studies, it has been suggested that an altered PPAR and PGC1 expression is involved in the reduced cardiac mitochondrial function, however human data on cardiac mitochondrial function and PPAR regulation is scarce. The latter is due to the fact that there is no validated measurement for assessing cardiac mitochondrial function non-invasively in vivo. It has been suggested that measuring PCr/ATP ratio with 31P-MRS in the heart reflects cardiac mitochondrial function. However, so far no direct validation of this method has been performed. The aim of this study will be to validate in vivo 31P-MRS with ex vivo measurements of mitochondrial function. To this end, the hypothesis is that in vivo 31P-MRS is a valid method for measuring cardiac mitochondrial function when compared with ex vivo mitochondrial respirometry.
This is a prospective, monocenter, single arm, phase II trial in 33 patients with unresectable MPM, who experience disease progression or recurrence after at least one previous line of platinum-based systemic treatment. Nivolumab will be administered at a fixed dose of 240 mg every 2 week. Nivolumab will be given in combination with ipilimumab on week 1, 7, 13 and 19 and will be administered prior to the infusion of ipilimumab. Ipilimumab will be administered at the dose of 1 mg/Kg.The patients will receive nivolumab monotherapy on week 3, 5, 9, 11, 15 and 17. From week 21 thereafter, Nivolumab will be then administered every 2 weeks for a maximum period of 2 years or until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the concentration of elemental impurities in blood and urine after chronic administration of Smecta® in subjects with chronic functional diarrhoea. For exploratory purposes, the potential effects of diosmectite on bowel microbiote composition will be investigated.
In this study, the effect of citrus extract on exercise performance will be investigated. The study consists of three groups: one group will receive a high dose citrus extract, one group will receive a low dose citrus extract and the last group will receive a placebo. After four and eight weeks the effects on performance are measured through a Wingate cycling test. It is expected that exercise performance will increase in the citrus extract groups, compared to the placebo group.
This is a not interventional, pragmatic, prospective, randomized (cluster) study to evaluate the potential benefit of a Treat to Target approach in comparison to routine treatment (i.e. usual care) in patients with axial spondyloarthritis.
There is increasing clinical and molecular evidence for the role of hormones and specifically estrogen and its receptor in schizophrenia. A selective estrogen receptor modulator, raloxifene, stimulates estrogen-like activity in brain and can improve cognition in older adults. The present study will test the extent to which adjunctive raloxifene treatment improved cognition and reduced symptoms in young to middle-age men and women with schizophrenia. 110 patients with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder will be recruited in a multicenter twelve-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel trial of adjunctive 120mg raloxifene treatment in addition to their usual antipsychotic medications. The investigators hypothesize that daily treatment with raloxifene 120 milligrams (mg) in addition to antipsychotic treatment improves cognition, reduces psychotic symptoms, increases social and personal functioning and reduces health care costs, as compared to placebo.
GSK2330811 is a humanized monoclonal antibody which is in development for systemic sclerosis (SSc), a rare autoimmune disease with high morbidity and mortality. Currently, there are no approved disease modifying therapies and it is an area of high unmet medical need. GSK2330811 has been shown to bind and neutralize Oncostatin M (OSM) that has been associated with fibrosis, vasculopathy and inflammation in a number of diseases. This multi-center, randomized, double-blind (sponsor open), placebo controlled, proof of mechanism study will be the first study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of repeat subcutaneous (SC) doses of GSK2330811 in male and female participants with diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc). Participants with active disease and a disease duration of <= 60 months will be enrolled. Approximately 24 to 40 participants will be randomized across two sequential cohorts. Cohort 1 will evaluate a repeat-dose predicted to provide sub-maximal inhibition of OSM, leading to a dose escalation decision. Cohort 1 is planned to consist of at least 4 participants, randomized such that 3 participants will receive GSK2330811 100 milligram (mg) and 1 will receive placebo. Cohort 2 is planned to consist of at least 20 participants, randomized such that participants will receive GSK2330811 300 mg and placebo in a 3:1 ratio respectively. The duration of the study is up to 34 weeks including a screening period of up to 6 weeks, treatment period of 12 weeks and follow-up period of 16 weeks.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of two different weekly doses of RO7239361 in ambulatory boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
