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 1/2, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of pralsetinib (BLU-667) administered orally in participants with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), RET-altered NSCLC and other RET-altered solid tumors.
Rationale: Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a common cause of pain and disability, especially in people over the age of 65. In the current health care system both conservative (e.g. intra-articular injections with corticosteroids) and surgical (total knee replacement, TKR) treatment are applied. Although frequently used, certain effects of these treatments on protein metabolism remain unclear. It is well known that maintenance of different tissues is determined by a dynamic balance between protein synthesis and breakdown rates, with temporary changes in either protein synthesis or breakdown allowing net protein accretion or loss. Though protein supplementation has shown to be an effective nutritional strategy in stimulating muscle protein synthesis, it remains unclear to what extent other musculoskeletal tissues are able to respond to dietary protein supplementation. Therefore, the current study assesses the impact of preoperative protein supplementation on protein synthesis in different musculoskeletal tissues of the knee. Objective: To investigate the effect of preoperative protein supplementation on Hoffa's fat pad, synovium, tendon, bone, muscle, ligament, menisci, and cartilage protein synthesis of the OA knee. Study design: Randomized, parallel (two groups) study design. The intervention group will be compared to the control group. Study population: 24 adults with OA of the knee undergoing TKR. Intervention: Daily 40 g of pre-sleep protein two weeks before TKR or no intervention. Main study parameters/endpoints: Primary study parameters include protein synthesis rates and enrichments of Hoffa's fat pad, synovium, tendon, bone, muscle, ligament, menisci, and cartilage. Secondary parameters include whole-body protein synthesis, breakdown, oxidation, and net balance. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The risks involved in participating in this study are minimal. There are no potential effects known for the ingestion of protein. Muscle biopsies and tissue collection will be performed during the surgical procedure.
A Phase 3, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Study of Voxelotor Administered Orally to Patients With Sickle Cell Disease
This is an open-label, non-randomized study investigating the excretion balance, PK and metabolism of a single oral dose of [14C]-labeled Risdiplam (RO7034067) in healthy male participants. This study will assess the characterize mass balance, routes and rates of elimination of [14C]-labeled Risdiplam (RO7034067), using conventional analytical methods and assess the pharmacokinetics of total drug related [14C]-radioactivity, Risdiplam (RO7034067) and its metabolite(s).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of dapagliflozin on the incidence of worsening heart failure or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction
Danirixin (DNX) is a selective CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR2) antagonist being developed as a potential anti-inflammatory agent for the treatment of COPD. This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind (Sponsor Open) study. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical activity and safety of danirixin compared with placebo in participants with COPD. Following baseline assessments collected over a 7 day period participants will be randomized (1:1:1:1:1:1) to receive one of five dose strengths of danirixin (5 milligram [mg], 10 mg, 25 mg, 35 mg and 50 mg) or placebo. Study treatment will be administered orally twice daily for 24 weeks. Participants will continue with their standard of care inhaled medications (i.e. long acting bronchodilators with or without inhaled corticosteroids) while receiving study treatment. Follow up will continue up to 28 days post last dose. Approximately 700 participants will be screened with a target of 540 participants completing 24 weeks of treatment and key study assessments.
COPD is characterized by an airflow limitation, which is not fully reversible, usually progressive and accompanied by chronic cough, sputum production and dyspnea, which can be a major cause of disability and anxiety associated with the disease. In addition, COPD is associated with poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Pharmacologic therapy is used to improve lung function, reduce symptoms, reduce the frequency and severity of exacerbations, and also to improve health status and exercise tolerance. This is a multi-center, randomized, double blind, double dummy, 3-arm parallel group study to compare umeclidinium/vilanterol (62.5/25 microgram [mcg], once daily), umeclidinium (62.5 mcg, once daily), and salmeterol (50 mg, twice daily) in male and female subjects with COPD. The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate improvements in lung function for subjects treated with UMEC/VI compared with UMEC for 24 weeks. Approximately 2424 subjects will be randomized across 3 parallel arms in 1:1:1 ratio. Subjects will be stratified based on long-acting bronchodilator usage during the run-in period (none, one or 2 long-acting bronchodilators per day). Subjects will receive either UMEC/VI inhalation powder (62.5/25 microgram [mcg] once daily) administered via the ELLIPTA® dry powder inhaler (DPI) and placebo twice daily via DISKUS® DPI; or UMEC (62.5 mcg once daily) administered via the ELLIPTA DPI and placebo twice daily via DISKUS DPI or salmeterol (50 mcg twice daily [BID]) administered via the DISKUS DPI and placebo once daily via ELLIPTA DPI. The duration of the study will be 29 to 31 weeks including a pre-screening period of 2 weeks, run-in period of 4 weeks, treatment period of 24 weeks and follow-up period of 1 week.

Rationale: Undernutrition risk among community-dwelling older adults in developed countries is shown to be around 24%. Increasing protein intake is a strategy that is feasible as well as efficacious to reduce undernutrition in community-dwelling older adults. A promising strategy to increase protein intake among older adults, is to offer dietary solutions with normal foods that fit their current daily eating patterns. For this reason, home-delivered protein-rich readymade meals and protein-rich dairy products will be studied in this research. Objective: The primary objective is to study the effectiveness of commercially available protein-rich readymade meals and protein-rich dairy products in increasing protein intake of older adults who use a meal-delivery service to a level of 1.2 g/kg bodyweight/d. Secondary objectives include: studying effects of these meals and dairy products on total daily energy intake. Further, studying the acceptance of and compliance to the meals and dairy products. Study design: The study will be performed as a single-blind randomized, controlled, four-week trial in a real-life setting: in community-dwelling older adults' own homes. Study population: The target group of this study are community-dwelling older adults who use a meal-delivery service. Intervention: Both groups will receive readymade meals for each day during 4 weeks. They will also receive dairy products to freely consume during the intervention period. The intervention groups receives protein-rich meals and protein-rich dairy products, the control receives standard meals and food products. Main study parameters/endpoints: Difference in daily protein intake between intervention and control group. Secondary parameters: energy intake and acceptance (liking).
This study aims to characterise the use of single-agent olodaterol and single-agent indacaterol, the only marketed long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA)s authorised for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but not for asthma, in clinical practice.
Bilateral (left cathodal/ right anodal) transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) seems to reduce craving and to increase the time till smoking the first cigarette after the intervention. The current study explores whether actual cigarette consumption decreases after repetitive tDCS. Cigarette consumption and craving will therefore be measured by means of EMA, before (at baseline), during and after multiple tDCS sessions, and at 3 months follow-up. To study the working mechanism behind the effects of tDCS, electrophysiological responses (ERPs) and behavioral measures of cognitive control functioning will be taken into account at baseline, one day after the last tDCS session and at three months follow up. We hypothesize that cigarette consumption will decrease after repetitive tDCS, and that this effect is associated with better cognitive control functioning.
