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 primary objective of this prospective randomised study is to assess the safety and tolerability of sacubitril/valsartan compared with standard of care used for treating BP in patients that have been implanted with the Heart Mate 3 LVAD (events of special interest - all cause death, right ventricular failure, bleeding events, deterioration in renal function, hyperkalemia, symptomatic hypotension).
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant therapy with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab compared with active surveillance in participants with completely resected or ablated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are at high risk for disease recurrence.
Rationale: There is level I evidence in literature that the first management step of HD is basic treatment, including laxatives and high fibre dieti, ii. The next treatment modality after basic treatment in case of persistent symptoms is rubber band ligation (RBL), which can be repeated if necessary. There is currently no consensus and a lack of evidence regarding the best treatment option for these patients having recurrent HD: continuing RBL or a surgical intervention. Furthermore, there is no estimate of costs and cost-effectiveness in this patient group. Objective: The primary objective of this RCT is to compare the effectiveness of RBL, sutured mucopexy and haemorrhoidectomy regarding recurrence and patient-reported symptoms for recurrent grade 2 and 3 HD after at least 2 previous RBL treatments. Secondary objectives are to compare RBL, sutured mucopexy and haemorrhoidectomy for recurrent grade 2 and 3 HD after previous RBL treatments in terms of early and late complications, impact of symptoms on daily activities, patient satisfaction with treatment, health-related quality of life, costs and cost-effectiveness, and budget impact. Study design: Dutch prospective multicentre randomized controlled trial. Study population: Patients ≥18 who have recurrent grade 2 or 3 haemorrhoidal disease and who had at least 2 rubber band ligation treatments. In total, 558 patients will be included. Intervention: Rubber band ligation versus sutured mucopexy versus haemorrhoidectomy. All three interventions are part of Dutch usual care, and serve as each other's control. Main study parameters/endpoints: Primary outcomes are (1) recurrence and (2) patient-reported symptoms assessed after 12 months. Secondary outcome variables are early and late complications, impact of symptoms on daily activities, patient satisfaction with treatment, health-related quality of life, costs, cost-effectiveness and budget-impact.
The SyncAV Post-Market Trial is a prospective, randomized, multi-center trial performed to determine if cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices programmed with SyncAV ON improve long-term CRT response compared to devices programmed with conventional CRT through evaluation of changes in left ventricular (LV) reverse remodeling.
Oral and intestinal mucositis are major risk factors for the occurrence of fever during neutropenia and bloodstream infections after intensive chemo- and radiotherapy. These complications often require dose reductions or cause delay of treatment, and thereby interfere with optimal anticancer treatment. Currently, there are no effective strategies to prevent or treat mucositis and the related complications. The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has shown to be pivotal in the pathogenesis of mucositis and recently, it has been established in murine models that IL-1 inhibition significantly ameliorates chemotherapy-induced intestinal mucositis. The investigators recently conducted a phase IIa study (AFFECT-1, NCT03233776) studying the safety and maximum tolerated dose of anakinra, a recombinant human IL-1 receptor antagonist in adult patients with multiple myeloma receiving high-dose melphalan (HDM) in the preparation for an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) who are at high risk for experiencing mucositis and fever during neutropenia (FN). Since treatment with anakinra has shown to be safe in this study population, the investigators will continue with a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled multicenter phase IIb trial to establish efficacy in the management of fever during neutropenia and mucositis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of nivolumab adjuvant immunotherapy compared to placebo in adults and pediatric participants after complete resection of Stage IIB/C melanoma with no evidence of disease (NED) who are at high risk for recurrence.
Prospective will be collected in a minimum of 300 patients presenting with an acquired segmental mandibular defect ≥ 4 cm secondary to OSSC removal and who require mandibular reconstruction.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of combination treatment of ruxolitinib with 5 novel compounds: siremadlin, crizanlizumab, sabatolimab, rineterkib and NIS793 in myelofibrosis (MF) subjects.
A prospective multicenter observational cost-utility study following older or high-risk patients with colorectal cancer with and without prehabilitation before surgery.
The aim of this study is to investigate how safe and effective the addition of the new medicine midostaurin to decitabine is for the treatment of unfit acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplasia (MDS) patients. Patients who are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy because of accompanying diseases may opt for gentler treatment. This does not produce a cure but serves to allow the quality of life to be acceptable for as long as possible. Decitabine is an example of a gentler treatment. It is effective against leukemia and has fewer side effects than intensive chemotherapy. Given in courses of 5 successive days, decitabine is registered for the treatment of AML. There is scientific research to suggest that decitabine is more effective and generally well tolerated when given in courses of 10 successive days. Therefore, treatment with 10-day courses of decitabine is the standard treatment in this scientific research. The aim is to investigate whether this standard treatment can be improved by adding a new product, midostaurin. Midostaurin is a medicine that is directed against a specific protein on leukaemia cells (FLT3).
