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.
Rationale: THA is a widely applied procedure for osteoarthritis of the hip. After THA, one can expect an increase in physical activity due to the reduction of pain and increased range of motion of the hip joint, especially in young patients who in general have more active lifestyles. However, these young patients and their doctors don't know which increase in physical activity can be expected. Objective: To measure the difference in physical activity before and after THA. Study design: Longitudinal prospective single center observational study. Study population: 87 patients who have primary THA under the age of 50 years. Excluding patients with an underlying oncologic disease which results in THA. Intervention: N.a. Main study parameters/endpoints: The first primary endpoint is physical activity in minutes per day. The other primary endpoint is MVPA in minutes per day. Secondary endpoints are difference of TUG outcomes in seconds and the difference of 6MWT outcomes in meters. For the patients experience, the COPM total scores and NRS pain scores will be measured. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: This study requires three outpatient clinic visits. These visits will coincide with regular outpatient clinic visits, so patients will not have to come in extra for this study. During the preoperative and 1 year postoperative visit, the patients will complete the COPM. The patient will wear a PA monitor for 7 days after each visit. Patients might experience confronting feelings while being exposed to their PA activity profile after the study or experience mild discomfort while wearing the PA monitor since it will be worn 24 hours per day for 7 days. Also, filling in the questionnaires will take some time (5-10 minutes per questionnaire series). There are no significant physical risks associated to this study.
The current study is being conducted by the Sponsor to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GV1001 (0.56 mg and 1.12 mg) administered subcutaneously as a treatment for mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). Studies using in vivo and in vitro AD models have shown that GV1001 inhibits neurotoxicity, apoptosis, and the production of reactive oxygen species induced by amyloid beta (Aβ) in neural stem cells by mimicking the extra-telomeric functions of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). In nonclinical studies, using both mild (early stage) and severe (late stage) AD mouse models, GV1001 was shown to improve cognitive function and memory, as well as significantly reduce the amount of Aβ and tau proteins. The multifunctional effect of GV1001 makes it a promising therapeutic option for the treatment for AD. In a completed Phase 2 study conducted in Korea, GV1001 showed significant improvement in change from baseline of Severe Impairment Battery score at Week 24 and demonstrated a clinically acceptable safety profile in patients with moderate to severe AD.
Patient education is continuously becoming more important to enable patients to participate in making decisions regarding their medical treatment. Specifically, this is also the case for preoperative education on anesthesia. Worldwide, there are many initiatives to improve preoperative patient education and subsequent level of knowledge of anesthesia, for example by using digital aids. The demand for such aids has increased significantly since the start of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic to facilitate remote preoperative anesthesiological screening. Although many videos to educate patients on anesthesia have been developed and circulate on the internet, there has been little effort to compare this method of educating patients with the traditional one-on-one conversation between the anesthesiologist and the patient. Objective: To compare short, mid-and long term retention of knowledge after education on anesthesia by watching a video to the traditional one-on-one explanation by the anaesthesiologist.
Despite treatment according to the CROSS-regimen, median overall survival is less than four years (2.3 QALYs). The burden of disease is within the highest category (0.71 to 1.0). Also, no targeted treatment options are currently available, hampering personalized treatment for this patient population. TRAP-2 aims to address these needs by investigating whether addition of trastuzumab and pertuzumab to standard of care improves survival of patients with resectable HER2 positive esophageal adenocarcinoma (HER2+ EAC). Patients with HER2+ EAC will be randomised to neoadjuvant chemoradiation according to the CROSS regimen or CROSS + TRAstuzumab and Pertuzumab. Primary outcome is overall survival.
Timely recognition and treatment of fluid overload can expedite liberation from invasive mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Lung ultrasound (LUS) is an easy to learn, safe, cheap and noninvasive bedside imaging tool with high accuracy for pulmonary edema and pleural effusions in ICU patients. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of LUS-guided deresuscitation on duration of invasive ventilation in ICU patients. The investigators hypothesize that LUS-guided fluid deresuscitation is superior to routine fluid deresuscitation (not using LUS) with regard to duration of invasive ventilation. This study is a national multicenter randomized clinical trial (RCT) in invasively ventilated ICU patients.This study will include 1,000 consecutively admitted invasively ventilated adult ICU patients, who are expected not to be extubated within the next 24 hours after randomization. Patients are randomly assigned to the intervention group, in which fluid deresuscitation is guided by repeated LUS, or the control group, in which fluid deresuscitation is at the discretion of the treating physician (not using LUS).
This is a Phase I, open-label, dose escalation study of LNP3794 (BI3011441) in subjects with NRAS/KRAS mutated advanced or metastatic refractory solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety/tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of the orally administered LNP3794 (BI3011441) as monotherapy at selected dose levels.
This is an open-label, multicenter study to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of RO7428731 administered as a monotherapy in participants with newly diagnosed or recurrent epidermal growth factor receptor variant III (EGFRvIII)-positive glioblastoma (GBM).
Multicentre, pivotal, non-randomized, prospective, open-label clinical investigation involving a new hydrogel, Hy2Care Injectable hydrogel, developed by Hy2Care B.V., Enschede, The Netherlands (hereafter referred to as "Hy2Care") to treat cartilage defects (< 2 cm2) in the human knee. The product aims at functional repair of cartilage defects in the knee and regeneration of cartilage. The objective of this clinical investigation is to demonstrate the clinical safety and performance of the Hy2Care Injectable hydrogel. Data from this clinical investigation will be used to support a CE marking application for the Hy2Care Injectable hydrogel. Sites will be selected based on a documented site qualification procedure. The Principal Investigator at each site will be selected based on confirmed expertise in the orthopaedic field. Each site will have a designated Principal Investigator and one or more study coordinators collectively responsible for the study data collection, inclusive of screening, enrolment, evaluation and documentation, in accordance with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14155 guidelines for Good Clinical Practice. Per site, one physician will be assigned as Principal Investigator. Other physicians will be referred to as 'sub-investigators'.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aficamten (CK-3773274) in adults with symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
This is a multi-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical study comparing the safety and efficacy of bezuclastinib (CGT9486) plus best supportive care (BSC) with placebo plus BSC in patients with nonadvanced systemic mastocytosis (NonAdvSM), including indolent systemic mastocytosis and smoldering systemic mastocytosis, whose symptoms are not adequately controlled by BSC. This study will be conducted in three parts. Patients in Parts 1a, 1b and 2 will receive bezuclastinib or placebo, and may roll over onto Part 3 to receive treatment with bezuclastinib.
