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 purpose of this study is to determine ad libitum daily energy intake, body weight changes and appetite profile in response to protein/carbohydrate and fat ratio over 12 consecutive days, and in relation to age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene alleles.
The purpose of the study is to investigate how quickly and to what extent YM178 is absorbed and eliminated from the body, and how well it is tolerated, when given in three different tablet formulations (sustained release) once a day with and without food, and to compare the results with the profile of the YM178 immediate release formulation taken twice daily without food.
An observational study comparing changing from an IOP-lowering treatment to a bimatoprost-containing IOP treatment in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT). Visits and treatment are per normal clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib versus temsirolimus in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma who received at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen.
The amount and kind of food which is ingested influences the regulation of meal size. Neural signals from the gastrointestinal tract travel via the vagus nerve to the brainstem and thalamus, which projects to the rest of the brain, in particular the hypothalamus, amygdala and primary sensory cortices. In neuroimaging studies in which the stomach was distended with a gastric balloon activation was observed in the right insula, left posterior amygdala, left posterior insula, left inferior frontal gyrus and anterior cingulate cortex. So far, no study has examined the effects of the ingestion or infusion of a food on the brain. In addition to neural signals, hormonal signals are important for meal termination. Hormones like insulin, ghrelin and cholecystokinin interact with gastric as well as sensory signals in the process of satiation, which ultimately leads to meal termination. The aim of this study is to investigate the interaction between food administration, hormone responses and brain responses. To this end an oral or intra-gastric load will be administered while measuring brain activity (functional magnetic resonance imaging) and hormone concentrations. Subjects will participate in one trainings session and in three functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) sessions (35-min fMRI scan). A training session will take 40-minutes and consists of placing a naso-gastric tube and ingesting 500 ml of chocolate milk orally. The fMRI sessions will consist of three conditions: in condition one (A) 500ml of chocolate milk will be administrated orally. In condition two (B) and three (C) an intra-gastric load of 500 ml is administrated.
Alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9). Primary Objective of the study: To demonstrate the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by alirocumab in comparison with ezetimibe after 24 weeks of treatment in participants with hypercholesterolemia. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with ezetimibe on LDL-C at other time points - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on other lipid parameters - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab
Long term open label study on safety and durability of the Urgent-SQ tibial implant device for refractory overactive bladder syndrome (OAB).
This study compares both clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a brief, intensified therapy and diagnostic method for patients with mood and/or anxiety disorders with Treatment As Usual (TAU) at five outpatient Mental Healthcare Centers in the Netherlands.
Screening studies for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) in 65 to 79 years aged men, have shown a significant reduction in AAA related mortality. In addition, the cost-effectiveness of screening for AAA in men in the Netherlands has been demonstrated by using a Markov model. Screening might be even more (cost-) effective if targeted on high risk groups, such as patients with a particular cardiovascular disease with a known increased risk of having an AAA. Project SCAN (Screening CardioVascular patients for Aortic aNeurysms) is a project focused on targeted AAA screening to proactively diagnose patients at high risk of having an aneurysm that eventually may rupture. This pilot project aims to study the value of a screening protocol in daily practice to detect AAA's in high risk patients.
The number of long-term cancer survivors is growing. As a result, treatment-related morbidity - such as cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, functional decline and fatigue - is impacting quality of life and impairing survival. Metabolic syndrome in the general population is currently treated with lifestyle advice to increase physical activity (PA) and reduce caloric intake. This approach is still underused as standard care for cancer survivors. The aim of this study is investigate whether a tailored PA program that starts early (during curative chemotherapy with cardiovascular toxic potential) is superior in terms of reducing long-term cancer-treatment-related metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular morbidity to a program that starts late (after completion of chemotherapy).
