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 primary objective of the EXPAND G4 study is to confirm the safety and performance of the MitraClip G4 System in a post-market setting.
Rationale: The number of highly myopic patients is increasing. Especially in East and Southeast Asia, up to 90% of adolescents are currently myopic. Long-term treatment of high myopia can be obtained by three types of surgery: laser refractive surgery, phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation, and refractive lens exchange Implantation with a pIOL is the preferred treatment for high myopes, resulting in increasing patient numbers implanted due to the increasing numbers of patients with high myopia. Long-term results show that implantation of a pIOL induces an accelerated decrease in corneal endothelial cells (EC). Although some risk factors for increase EC loss have been identified, the underlying mechanism is currently unknown. It is hypothesized that the aqueous flow in the anterior segment of the eye (i.e. anterior chamber) is disturbed, causing an altered nutritional flow in the anterior chamber. Another hypothesis is that the pIOL causes chronic subclinical inflammation in the anterior chamber resulting in increased EC loss. Currently there is insufficient proof to confirm or reject either hypothesis. If one of these hypotheses can be confirmed, it is likely to induces significant changes in clinical practice. Objective: The primary objective of the study is to explore the role of inflammation in the anterior chamber on endothelial cell loss in patients implanted with iris-fixated pIOLs. The secondary objective is to identify whether there is a correlation between biomarkers in aqueous humour and biomarkers in tears, both related to the accelerated progression of EC loss. Study design: Two strategies are incorporated in the design of this study. The first part will retrospectively evaluate EC loss in patients with iris-fixated (IF) phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs). The second part is prospective and will compare EC measurements, cytokines in aqueous humour and in tears from patients scheduled for IF-pIOLs explantation and compare them to patients with routine cataract surgery. Study population: Patients over 18 years of age, undergoing regular cataract surgery, and patients undergoing pIOL explantation in combination with cataract surgery. A total number of 126 patients is needed, equally divided over two groups.
This is a Phase 2/3 study that comprises 5 substudies designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oral etrasimod as therapy in adult participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) who are refractory or intolerant to at least 1 of the current therapies for CD (ie, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, or biologics). The overall duration of this study is up to 282 weeks, inclusive of the Screening Period, Treatment Period of up to 274 weeks (Induction, Extension or Maintenance, and Long-term Extension Periods), and the 4-Week Follow-Up Period for safety assessment.
An Expanded Access Program for UROMUNE® for patients suffering from recurrent/chronic urinary tract infections of diverse etiology. This is for individuals for whom antibiotic therapy has failed, but of consideration in all cases, taking into account antibiotic-induced adverse reactions and increasing antibiotic resistance.
A single-center, investigator-initiated, single arm interventional study in patients undergoing transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam (NL). Study population will be patients undergoing TAVR with no formal indication for oral anticoagulant (OAC) and no dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) requirement for coronary stents. Primary endpoint is the incidence of leaflet thickening on MSCT after three months of edoxaban treatment.
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of Distal Radial Access (DTRA) to Conventional Transradial Access (CTRA) regarding forearm radial artery occlusion (RAO). This trial plans to include 1300 patients in around 12 locations around the world (11 participating sites in Europe and 1 participating site in Japan).
Retrospective registry will compare subjects who've undergone a mapping and/or ablation procedure for either ischemic ventricular tachycardia or premature ventricular contraction using an epicardial approach with either manual or remote magnetic navigation. Subjects will be compared with regards to safety, efficacy and mortality.
Esophagectomy is the cornerstone for treatment of esophageal cancer. However, it is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Studies suggest that systemic inflammation after surgery has a negative impact on surgical outcomes. Attenuation of an excessive inflammatory response within the perioperative period for high-risk surgical procedures may reduce morbidity and mortality. The inflammatory response may be important in the development of these complications and reduction of inflammatory cytokine may be associated with an improved outcome. The current study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of neuromodulation during minimally invasive surgery for esophageal cancer (esophagectomy) to assess impact on the inflammatory response. During the esophagectomy, a stimulation lead will be placed on the exposed nerves, and energy applied to the lead to test whether the nerves can be activated. The study will also measure potential physiological responses to nerve activation.
Rationale: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second cause of cancer-related deaths for men. The standard surgical treatment for localised prostate cancer is radical prostatectomy. Possible side effects of this treatment are incontinence and erectile dysfunction and this is related to the whole-gland resection. A focal treatment with fewer side effects is desired for patients with only a small focus of PCa. For this purpose, focal laser ablation is feasible. Current focal laser ablation techniques use a single fibre setup with the need for fibre replacement revisualisation of the tumour side accordingly. This leads to a long treatment duration. The Echolaser® system is a laser ablation system with four simultaneously operating laser sources. This provides a potential larger treatment area, without the need for fibre replacement. This makes the system advantageous for focal laser ablation of prostate cancer, especially since it can be applied under local anaesthesia. This pilot study aims to evaluate histological ablative efficacy on radical prostatectomy specimens following TPLA, feasibility and safety using a (multi)fibre setup in men with localized prostate cancer. The investigators hypothesize that TPLA will show adequate histological ablative efficacy and will be feasible and safe.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of zanubrutinib regimens in participants with B-cell malignancies who participated in a BeiGene parent study for zanubrutinib.
