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.
DONIMI is a phase 1b trial testing the combination of domatinostat + nivolumab or nivolumab monotherapy in IFN-gamma signature high patients and of domatinostat + nivolumab or domatinostat + nivolumab + ipilimumab in IFN-gamma signature low patients with de-novo or recurrent macroscopic stage III cutaneous or unknown primary melanoma. The trial will include 45 stage III cutaneous or unknown primary melanoma patients with RECIST 1.1 measurable de-novo or recurrent disease (short axis lymph node metastasis ≥1.5cm). NanoString IFN-gamma signature high patients will be randomized to be treated pre-surgically for 6 weeks with nivolumab (arm A; 10 patients) or domatinostat + nivolumab (arm B; 10 patients). IFN-gamma signature low patients will be randomized to be treated pre-surgically for 6 weeks with domatinostat + nivolumab (arm C; 10 patients) or domatinostat + nivolumab + ipilimumab (arm D; 15 patients). Patients will be stratified according to center. Post-surgery (starting at week 12), the patients will start with adjuvant nivolumab or pembrolizumab for 52 weeks according to institute's standard. BRAF V600E/K mutation positive patients with no pathologic response after neoadjuvant therapy may also receive adjuvant BRAF + MEK inhibition if commercially available and according to the patient's and the treating physician's decision. Follow-up after the adjuvant therapy will be for 2 years, according to the institutes' standard. Toxicity and pathologic response rates will be descriptive. In case of 2/5 or 4/10 patients not undergoing their lymph node dissection at week 6 +/- 1 week due to treatment related toxicity, this arm will be declared unfeasible.
This is a multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel group study designed to confirm the benefits of mepolizumab treatment on moderate or severe exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) participants given as an add on to their optimized maintenance COPD therapy. The maximum duration of participant participation is approximately 109 weeks, consisting of 2 screening visits (up to 3 weeks), a run-in period (up to 2 weeks), and an intervention period of at least 52 weeks and up to 104 weeks. 800 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive mepolizumab 100 milligrams (mg) or placebo every 4 weeks for at least 13 doses (52 weeks treatment period) up to a maximum of 26 doses (104 weeks treatment period). The number of randomized participants may increase up to approximately 1400.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the overall minimal residual disease (MRD) negative rate of participants who receive JNJ-68284528.
To establish the safety and effectiveness of the Boston Scientific Cardiac Cryoablation System for treatment of symptomatic, drug refractory, recurrent, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF).
This study will be a comparative effectiveness research to determine the difference in major adverse cardiovascular events between the group with aspirin after awakening and placebo before bedtime and the group with placebo after awakening and aspirin before bedtime.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 2 study in subjects with newly diagnosed stage 3B light chain (AL) amyloidosis.
Nowadays, biomarkers are broadly used in clinical practice. Blood-derived biomarkers fulfil an important role in the field of cardiology. However, most biomarkers have been investigated for adult left ventricular disease. In congenital heart diseases (CHD) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which involves children and mostly the right ventricle, less is known about the clinical and predictive value of blood-derived biomarkers. Since the group of survivors of CHD and PAH is growing because of the improved techniques nowadays, development of better tools to maintain the quality of life for the longer term in these patients is urgently needed. Blood-derived biomarkers are minimally invasive biomarkers, are quantitative and have shown to be able to reveal pathological processes in an early stage. Hence, blood-derived biomarkers may be a good addition to current diagnostic means in CHD and PAH. Objective: The primary objective of this study is to investigate cross-sectionally the association between various emerging blood-derived biomarkers and right ventricular (RV) function:defined as tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) measured with echocardiography, in children with (a history of ) an abnormally loaded, volume and/or pressure loaded, right ventricle associated with CHD and/or PAH.
The aim of the study is to identify predictors in patient profiles and implant characteristics and to develop and calibrate a prediction model for failure of implants. Patients` demographic characteristics, lifestyle habits, general health, dental health, and implant characteristics were regarded as potential predictors. The failure of implants and the follow-up time in days of implants were considered the outcome. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis is used to find out the important risk factors for failure of dental implants and to develop the model for prediction of failure of dental implants at follow-up. The performance and clinical values of the model is determined.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of TAK-788 as first-line treatment with that of platinum-based chemotherapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors has epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutations. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups- TAK-788 group or Platinum-based chemotherapy group. Participants will receive TAK-788 orally and pemetrexed/cisplatin or pemetrexed/carboplatin via vein until the participants experience worsening disease (PD) as assessed by blinded independent review committee (IRC), intolerable harmful effects or another discontinuation criteria.
Rationale: This project elaborates on a novel finding of the investigators that has not yet been reported in literature, namely the presence of elevated levels of atypical B cells in participants with glioblastoma. ln the period 2015 2018 the investigators analysed the blood immune subset composition of a cohort of 180 participants undergoing neurosurgery. The most relevant finding was the presence of an abnormally elevated level of B cells in the blood of the great majority of participants with glioblastoma. These B cells may be involved in the immunosuppression associated with glioblastoma that makes this tumor refractory to immunotherapy. Multiple regression analysis indicated that the increase in the frequency of atypical B cells in participants' peripheral blood was related with the administration of dexamethasone prior to surgery. However, this study design did not allow the investigators to address the causality of the relationship between dexamethasone and atypic B cell dysregulation. Alternative treatments to dexamethasone exist. Objective: To investigate the effect of dexamethasone in the dysregulation of atypic B cells in participants with glioblastoma. Study design: Observational case control pilot study with 20 participants (10 per group). Study population: Newly diagnosed participants with glioblastoma. Intervention (if applicable): Observational study. Main study parameters/endpoints: Changes in the immune subset composition and functionality in the peripheral blood of participants with glioblastoma upon administration of dexamethasone for neurological signs of peritumoral edema (oral dexamethasone). Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The investigators will collect blood (28 ml) during the first visit and again (28 ml) at the time of surgery (2 weeks ± 3 days). There will not be additional site visits, physical examinations or any other tests, questionnaires. Blood collection is only a minor discomfort and it does not represent any additional risk.
