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.
Among patients with a first episode of unprovoked venous thromboembolism (VTE), the contemporary one-year risk of detecting occult cancer is approximately 4% to 7%. Of these cases, 30% to 60% are missed by routine limited screening for cancer. RNA profiling of platelets is a promising, highly accurate biomarker for cancer detection, but its clinical utility in patients with unprovoked VTE is unknown. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of platelet RNA profiling in detecting occult cancer in patients with unprovoked venous thromboembolism. Secondary objectives include evaluation of other biomarkers for cancer, prediction of bleeding, and prediction of recurrent VTE.
Rationale: The representation of the breast on the somatosensory cortex has not been precisely located. Therefore, a pilot study with healthy subjects is needed to localize the sensibility of the breast on the somatosensory cortex with the use of a 7 Tesla fMRI. Objective: To determine the exact localization of the representation of the sensibility of the breast and nipple-areola complex on the somatosensory cortex. Secondly, to assess whether there are differences in representation between individuals of the same sex and between both sexes. Study design: A single center pilot study carried out in the Maastricht University Medical Center, the Netherlands. Study population: A total of 10 female and 10 male healthy individuals will be recruited. Intervention: Every subject will undergo a functional MRI scan with stimulators applied to the bare breast in a fixed pattern. These stimulate the skin and sensory nerves of the breast and nipple-areola complex in a random sequence. Main study parameters: The hemodynamic response after stimulation of the skin of the breast and nipple-areola complex, representing neuronal activity in that region, is measured. Within the somatosensory cortex (S1 and S2), the temporo-spatial brain activity patterns after the various stimulation conditions are assessed, and the representation of the breast on the somatosensory cortex is mapped.
Prophylactic use of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) on surgical wounds following lower extremity orthopedic trauma to prevent infectious complications.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of brigatinib to that of crizotinib in ALK+ locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) participants naive to ALK inhibitors, as evidenced by progression-free survival (PFS).
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and tumor-shrinking ability of experimental medication BMS-986178, when given by itself or in combination with Nivolumab and/or Ipilimumab, in participants with solid cancers that are advanced or have spread.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of prexasertib when given to participants with extensive stage disease small cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC). The study will evaluate how the body processes the drug and how the drug affects the body. The study will also evaluate the association between tumor response and the participant's perceived quality of life.
Approximately 25% of patients with type 1 diabetes have lost the capacity to timely detect hypoglycaemia, a condition referred to as impaired hypoglycaemic awareness (IHA) that causes a six-fold higher risk of severe, potentially hazardous, hypoglycaemia. IHA is usually the end-result of a process of habituation to recurrent hypoglycemia that is potentially reversible. Treatment with glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 Receptor Agonists (1RAs) in addition to insulin therapy may decrease the incidence of hypoglycaemia in patients with type 1 diabetes. This study will test the hypothesis that treatment with the GLP-1RA, exenatide, added to basal-bolus insulin therapy will improve awareness of hypoglycaemia in patients with type 1 diabetes and IHA. In a randomized doubleblind placebo-controlled cross-over trial, patients will be treated for 6 weeks with exenatide (or placebo), after which hypoglycemic symptoms and counterregulatory hormone responses will be examined during a hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic glucose clamp study.
This is a phase 2 study to evaluate multiple doses of AK001 across 2 active doses. Pharmacodynamic activity will also be evaluated.
A premarket, international multicenter, prospective, open label, adaptive, randomized controlled study. The aim is to evaluate the efficacy of sensor augmented pump therapy with MiniMed™640G and SmartGuard™in preventing hypoglycemic events in comparison with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy in type 1 diabetes adults with an increased risk of hypoglycemia. The primary objective is to demonstrate a reduction in the mean number of hypoglycemic events when using the MiniMed™640G system with SmartGuard™ and the secondary objectives will aim at evaluating the difference in glycemic parameters and HbA1c.
This study is designed to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and the safety, and efficacy of durvalumab as monotherapy and when given in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab; ibrutinib; or bendamustine and rituximab at the RP2D in adults with lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
