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 investigators examine the 15-year mortality after an admission for an exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease (COPD).
Investigation of efficacy and safety of three dose levels of subcutaneous semaglutide once daily versus placebo in subjects with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate product performance of Magnetic Resonance (MR) Conditional Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (CIED) following 3 tesla (3T) MRI exposure. This will be achieved by evaluating the changes in pacing capture threshold (PCT) measurements following 3T MRI scan exposure. This study is required by FDA as a condition of approval of 3T MRI compatible labeling of applicable CIED systems. This study is conducted within Medtronic's post-market surveillance platform, the Product Surveillance Registry (PSR).
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter Phase II study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of ARGX-113 for the treatment of autoimmune Myasthenia Gravis (MG) with generalized muscle weakness.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ALN-PCSSC in participants with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.
FLU-v is a vaccine that aims to protect against a wide range of flu viruses. The purpose of this study is to measure the immune responses induced by FLU-v vaccine. This study will look at how safe FLU-v is when administered and how successful it is in preventing flu or reducing the severity of the flu symptoms. The study requires 222 healthy volunteers 18-60 years old. Participation in the study will take a maximum of 7 months and consists of 5 visits. During visit 1, subjects will be examined by a doctor to make sure they are eligible to enter the study. A 15ml blood sample (a tablespoon) will be taken to check general health followed by a general physical exam. Medical history and some personal information will be collected. Subjects that have received the traditional flu vaccine in the past 6 months, and those females who are pregnant or breastfeeding will not be allowed in the study. Subjects of childbearing age must agree to use effective contraceptive methods. At visit 2, subjects will be randomly allocated to one of the four treatment groups summarised below: - Treatment 1: FLU-v (test vaccine) at the start of the study (Day 0) and then again 21 days later - Treatment 2: FLU-v (test vaccine) with an additional substance added [known as Montanide ISA 51] which improves the effect of the test vaccine. Injection will be given on Day 0 and then Placebo (no test vaccine) alone 21 days later - Treatment 3: Placebo (no test vaccine) injection on Day 0 and then 21 days later - Treatment 4: Placebo (no test vaccine) with an additional substance added [known as Montanide ISA 51] on Day 0 and then Placebo (no test vaccine) alone 21 days later Treatment will be injected under the skin in the upper arm on day 0 (visit 2) and 21 days later (visit 3). Blood samples will be taken before treatment (day 0), and on days 42 (visit 4) and 180 (visit 5) to the immune responses induced by the vaccine. Subjects will be asked to complete a diary card to write down any side effects that they may experience after vaccination. Subjects will also be asked to complete another diary card to document any flu-like symptoms experienced between December 2016 and March 2017, this time is officially considered as the flu season. During this period, if the subject experiences flu-like symptoms, a collection of a nose and tonsil swab will be arranged by the study site to confirm whether they have the flu or not.
This study will determine the dose-response relationship of VAY736 for key efficacy and safety parameters
The purpose of the study is to assess whether Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) has the potential to optimize the ventilator therapy, validate the effectiveness, efficacy and safety of nursing and medical interventions (endotracheal suctioning, posture changes, surfactant therapy, recruitment manoeuvres, etc.) and for early recognition of complications like pneumothorax and endotracheal tube misplacement. The study design is purely observational.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to investigate the absorption, metabolism and excretion of somapacitan after single subcutaneous dosing in healthy male subjects.
Rationale: Previous reviews showed that the evidence regarding the effectiveness of sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in patients with therapy-resistant, idiopathic (slow-transit) constipation is of suboptimal quality. Furthermore, there is no estimate of costs and cost-effectiveness in this patient group. Objective: The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of SNM compared to personalized conservative treatment (PCT), in patients with idiopathic slow-transit constipation who are refractory to conservative treatment. The secondary objectives are assessing the 1) costs, 2) cost-effectiveness and 3) budget-impact of SNM compared to PCT. Hypothesis: Based on previous research we hypothesize that SNM will be more effective than PCT in terms of a significantly higher proportion of patients having treatment success at 6 months. Study design: An open-label pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) combined with a prospective cohort study. Study population: Adolescent (14-17 years) and adult (18-80 years) patients with idiopathic slow-transit constipation refractory to conservative treatment. Intervention: The intervention is SNM, a minimally invasive surgical procedure consisting of two phases. In the screening phase an electrode is inserted near the third sacral nerve and connected to an external stimulator. If the screening phase is successful (average defecation frequency (DF) ≥3 a week), the electrode is connected to a pacemaker that is implanted in the buttocks of the patient. If not successful, patients receive conservative treatment. The control intervention is PCT. This is the best and least invasive alternative to SNM. PCT consists of medication and/or retrograde colonic irrigation. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome is success at 6 months, defined as an average DF of ≥3 a week according to a 3-week defecation diary. Secondary outcomes are straining, sense of incomplete evacuation, constipation severity, fatigue, constipation specific and generic (health-related) quality of life ((HR)QOL), and costs at 6 months. Furthermore, cost-effectiveness and budget-impact will be estimated.
