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.
Fibrinogen concentrate is increasingly used in cardiac surgery to reverse coagulopathy. Whether its use reduces blood loss, transfusion and occurrence of clinical adverse events remains unknown.
This study will assess the efficacy of AUY922, when administered weekly at 70 mg/m2, in adult patients with advanced Non-small-cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), who have received at least two prior lines of chemotherapy. Patients will be retrospectively, and prospectively, stratified based on their molecular tumor etiology. The following strata was assigned: Patients with Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations, Patients with Kirstin Raus sarcoma virus (KRAS) activating mutations, Patients with EML4-ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) translocations and patients that were both EGFR and Kras wild type.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether CO-1.01 is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer and low hENT1 expression compared with gemcitabine.
This study is designed to assess the effect of once-daily QVA149 on COPD exacerbations in patients with severe to very severe COPD.
This study was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of NVA237, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist, in patients with moderate to severe COPD.
Rationale: The narrow therapeutic range and wide inter-patient variability in dose requirement make anticoagulation response to coumarin derivatives unpredictable. As a result, patients require frequent monitoring to avert adverse effects and maintain therapeutic efficacy. Polymorphisms in cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1) jointly account for about 40% of the inter-individual variability in dose requirements. To date, several pharmacogenetic guided dosing algorithms for coumarin derivatives, predominately for warfarin, have been developed. However, the potential benefit of these dosing algorithms in terms of their safety and clinical utility has not been adequately investigated in randomised settings. Objective: To determine whether a dosing algorithm containing genetic information increases the time within therapeutic INR range during anticoagulation therapy with each of warfarin, acenocoumarol and phenprocoumon compared to a dosing regimen that does not contain this information. Secondary outcomes of the study include cost effectiveness, number of thromboembolic and bleeding events, time to reach stable dose and number of supratherapeutic INR peaks. Study design: This is a two-armed, single-blinded, randomised controlled trial. In one arm (intervention) patients commencing anticoagulation therapy with either warfarin, acenocoumarol or phenprocoumon will be dosed according to a drug-specific genotype-guided dosing algorithm, which is based on genetic information, clinical data and (in the monitoring phase) previous INR. For the other arm (control) patients will be dosed according to a non-genotype-guided dosing regimen which does not include genetic information. The follow-up period per patient is 3 months. Study population: Newly diagnosed patients of both genders and at least 18 years old who need anticoagulant treatment with either acenocoumarol, phenprocoumon or warfarin within the low intensity INR range will be included in the trial. Main study parameters/endpoints: The % time within therapeutic INR range in the first 3 months of anticoagulation therapy. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Six extra blood samples are taken from each participant at the start of the study. Patients also have to attend 8 scheduled visits within the 3 months study period and are asked to fill in questionnaires. The genotype-guided dosing algorithm is anticipated to improve the accuracy of coumarin dosing and thus improve the safety and efficacy of anticoagulation therapy.

The primary objective is to evaluate the S-ICD system's ability to identify and terminate induced ventricular fibrillation in patients during the implant procedure. The safety and performance of the S-ICD system will also be assessed throughout the patient follow-up period.
Primary objective: To demonstrate the superiority of insulin glargine over liraglutide in terms of percentage of patients reaching a Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) < 7% at the end of the comparative period (24 weeks) in Type 2 diabetic patients failing lifestyle management and oral agents Secondary objectives of the comparative period (24 weeks): >To assess the effect of insulin glargine in comparison with liraglutide on: - HbA1c level - Percentage of patients whose HbA1c has decreased but remains >= 7% at the end of the comparative period - Percentage of patients whose HbA1c has increased at the end of the comparative period - Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) - 7-point Plasma Glucose (PG) profiles - Hypoglycemia occurrence - Body weight - Adverse events Objectives of the extension period (24 weeks): >To assess the effect of insulin glargine in patients not adequately controlled with liraglutide on: - HbA1c level - FPG - 7-point PG profiles - Hypoglycemia occurrence - Body weight - Adverse events
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an early Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI) to everolimus conversion at 10-14 weeks post transplantation improves renal allograft function without compromising efficacy compared to standard CNI treatment in de novo renal allograft recipients. In addition, the study is designed to evaluate the impact of a CNI-free regimen on evolution of cardiovascular parameters in de novo renal allograft recipients
