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 an interventional, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK of escalating single doses of G3P-01 in 10 healthy adult subjects. All participants will receive G3P-01 in sequential, escalating doses of 50mg (Period 1), 500mg (Period 2), 1,000mg (Period 3), and 2,000mg (Period 4). A wash out period of at least 7 days will occur between doses in each sequential treatment period. Subjects will be admitted Day 1 and stay overnight until the morning of Day 2 for each treatment period. There will be a follow up call 14 days (+/- 2 days) following the last dose of the IP.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of mRNA-3705 administered to participants with isolated methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) due to methylmalonyl-coenzyme A mutase (MUT) deficiency who have previously participated in other clinical studies of mRNA-3705.
Clofazimine (CFZ) is a promising drug for the treatment of NTM diseases. CFZ is highly active in vitro against M. abscessus and M. avium, the most common NTM pathogens, and shows synergy with macrolides and amikacin. The results from limited clinical studies with CFZ-based treatment regimens are promising. CFZ is currently considered an alternative drug for patients with M. avium complex infections, who are intolerant of first-line drugs. CFZ is a first-line oral drug for treatment of M. abscessus infections. CFZ might prove to be a cornerstone in NTM treatment, but its optimal dosage is not known. The current dose for adults is 100 mg oncedaily. However, due to the complex pharmacokinetics (PK) of CFZ - it is highly protein bound, extremely lipophilic and accumulates in fatty tissues resulting in a long elimination half-life of ~30 days - it takes several months before steady state, and presumably effective, concentrations are achieved. With the use of a loading dose regimen concentrations similar to those at steady state could be reached faster, possibly leading to improved early treatment efficacy. The overarching aim of this study is to contribute to dose optimization of CFZ in the treatment of NTM diseases. It will be an explorative, single-center, one-arm, open label, pharmacokinetic study. A number of 10 patients with pulmonary or extrapulmonary NTM disease will be included. Patients will receive a loading dose regimen of 300 mg once daily for 4 weeks and will then continue with a standard dose of 100 mg once daily until a total 4 months of treatment with CFZ. The primary objective of this study is to describe the PK of CFZ, after 4 weeks of treatment with a loading dose regimen of 300 mg once daily, in adult patients with pulmonary or extrapulmonary NTM disease
In August 2020, West Nile Virus (WNV) was isolated from a live common whitethroat for the first time in The Netherlands. Follow-up sampling showed that the virus could also be detected in mosquitos from the same location during at least a whole month of sampling. On 15 October 2020, one case of West Nile virus infection has been reported in a man who was likely infected in the Utrecht region. This is the first time that a locally acquired human case of WNV infection has been reported in The Netherlands. Six additional cases have been identified, one of which from the region Arnhem. West Nile virus infection is a mosquito-borne zoonosis. The disease, which has spread across the Northern Hemisphere in the past three decades, is now found on an annual basis in many European countries where the centre of gravity lies in Southern-European countries. Recently, WNV was reported for the first time in Germany. The virus is transmitted among birds through the bite of infected mosquitoes and incidentally infects humans and other mammals, such as horses. Around 80% of human WNV infections are asymptomatic. The most common clinical presentation is West Nile fever but, older people and immunocompromised persons are at higher risk of developing neuro-invasive disorders (West Nile neuroinvasive disease). Currently, there are no prophylaxis or specific treatment against the disease in humans. In addition, Usutu virus (USUV) was detected in The Netherlands in 2016. USUV is another flavivirus, related to WNV, and also capable of infecting humans. Disease associated with USUV infection in humans appears to be milder and only limited number of cases have been identified. During their bird catching activities, bird ringers are intensively exposed to mosquito bites at the natural habitat of the birds and at the same time of the day when mosquitoes are particularly active. The aim of this study is therefore to determine the prevalence of WNV and USUV serum antibodies in bird ringers in The Netherlands.
The primary objective is to evaluate whether a standard pre- and postdilatation (PSP strategy) of the modern DES results in a more optimal stent implantation compared to DS as evaluated by OCT in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The secondary clinical objective is to evaluate clinical cardiovascular outcomes in patients with stable coronary artery disease treated with the PSP strategy.
The corona crisis has a negative impact on the mental wellbeing of the Dutch population. Positive psychology exercises (PPOs) can potentially improve mental well-being and reduce mild and moderate psychological complaints. Previous research has shown moderate to large effects of PPOs on well-being in people with reduced wellbeing and psychological symptoms at baseline. The University of Twente developed an app (Training in Positivity; TiP) based on an effective intervention. The goal of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of TiP in the general population in people experiencing reduced mental wellbeing as a result of the corona crisis. People using the app will be compared to a waiting list control group.
In this study it is investigated whether treatment with azithromycin in combination with doxycycline reduces the bacterial load of C. acnes in granulomatous tissue of patients with sarcoidosis and subsequently decreases the inflammatory activation measured by FDG uptake and serum biomarkers.
A complete rupture of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) of the thumb must heal in order to regain proper function of the thumb. Guidelines recommend surgery for complete UCL ruptures, including Stener lesions. This recommendation is based on expert opinion, anatomic theories and low quality retrospective case series. High quality studies comparing cast immobilization with operative treatment are lacking. Research has shown that in about 9 out of 10 patients, a complete UCL rupture, including Stener Lesions, can also be treated with a cast alone for 6 weeks and no surgery is needed. We hypothesize that cast immobilization is non-inferior regarding functional outcome and carries concomitant lower costs compared with operative treatment for complete UCL ruptures, including Stener Lesions. The project aims to conduct a multicenter randomized controlled trial and cost-effectiveness analysis comparing operative and nonoperative treatment for complete UCL ruptures, including Stener Lesions. The project will take four years, from preparation to reporting of the results. In the following years, implementation will be achieved in collaboration with the Dutch hand surgery committees (NVvH and NVPC), health insurance companies, and medical experts. Research question Is nonoperative treatment with splint immobilization non-inferior to immediate operative treatment regarding functional outcome and does it lead to lower costs in adult patients with an acute complete UCL rupture, including Stener Lesions?
A study of sevasemten (EDG-5506) in Becker muscular dystrophy (known as CANYON) and pivotal cohort (known as GRAND CANYON). The EDG-5506-201 CANYON study was expanded to include an additional 120 adult participants in a cohort called GRAND CANYON, that is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sevasemten in adults with Becker. CANYON is fully enrolled; GRAND CANYON is currently enrolling.
