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 provide continuing evaluation and reporting of safety and performance of the SynchroMed II Infusion System within its intended use. Data will support post-market surveillance obligations.
This study will induce disuse atrophy through unilateral immobilization of the thigh and lower leg in healthy male volunteers to evaluate the PD of a single subcutaneous dose of GYM329 prior to or after unilateral thigh and lower leg immobilization. Healthy male volunteers will receive either GYM329 or placebo by subcutaneous injection at two time points, before and after 2 weeks of unilateral thigh and lower leg immobilization, in an investigator- and subject-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group design. At enrollment, all subjects will be randomized in a 1:2 ratio to either the pre-immobilization active drug group receiving a single subcutaneous dose of GYM329 before unilateral thigh and lower leg immobilization (Group A) or the pre-immobilization placebo group receiving a single subcutaneous dose of placebo before unilateral thigh and lower leg immobilization (Group B). On Day 15, subjects assigned to Group B and who completed the muscle strength assessment at Day15 will be further randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the post-immobilization active drug group (Group B-1) or the post-immobilization placebo group (Group B-2). Group A will receive GYM329 on Day 1 and placebo on Day 15. Group B will receive placebo on Day 1. Subsequently, Group B-1 will receive GYM329 on Day 15 and Group B-2 will receive placebo on Day 15. Muscle strength will be measured at pre-immobilization of unilateral thigh and lower leg, post-immobilization of unilateral thigh and lower leg (Day 15), Day 29, and Day 43. Subjects will be observed for 252 days after the second study treatment administration (266 days after the first study treatment administration).
Patients diagnosed with oligodendroglioma with a specific molecular profile represent rare tumour groups (about 10% of adult gliomas) with relatively favourable prognosis (median survival between 8 and 12 years). These patients are often treated with surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. However, as patients live for a long period of time, they may also experience long-term toxic side-effects of treatment. The long-term consequences of treatment- and disease-related factors on quality of life and cognitive functioning of these patients are largely unknown. This study aims to investigate quality of life and cognitive functioning in long-term survivors of oligodendroglioma (with IDH mutation and 1p/19q codeletion). This knowledge can support health care professionals prepare patients for any long-term consequences of treatment.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the percentage of time patients were in normal glucose control.
'Supervised exercise to PRomote Infiltration of NK-cells into the Tumor? The objective of this feasibility study is to 1) study trial feasibility in terms of patient enrollment and the percentage of tumor biopsies that can be examined successfully, and 2) generate preliminary data on the potential effects of exercise on immune function assessed in the tumor and in blood.
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) ablation is typically performed in predefined anatomic regions of the left atrium without attempting to identify patient-specific areas of interest. This procedure is referred to as Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI). The hypothesis in this Study is that a tailored ablation strategy targeting areas of spatio-temporal dispersion in combination with PVI is superior to an anatomical ablation strategy targeting PVI alone for the treatment of persistent AF.
The diagnostic accuracy and safety of colonoscopy highly depends on the quality of the pre-procedural bowel preparation. A past history of poor bowel preparation is the most important risk factor of inadequate bowel cleansing at the next colonoscopy. This study aims to evaluate if an adequate level of bowel cleansing can be achieved with the Pure-Vu System in patients with previous poor bowel preparation, in a single arm international multicenter feasibility study.
Disturbances in brain insulin-sensitivity are not only observed in abdominal obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), but also during brain aging and in dementia. Inorganic nitrate may improve brain insulin-sensitivity, which can be quantified by measuring the gray-matter cerebral blood flow (CBF) response to intranasally administered insulin, through beneficial effects on brain vascular function. Therefore, we now hypothesize that inorganic nitrate, which can be found in several vegetables such as beetroot, improves brain insulin-sensitivity, as assessed by the gray-matter CBF response to intranasally administered insulin, in abdominally obese men.
Ambulatory mobility and function are important aspects in the quality of life of people with lower limb amputations and prostheses. Regaining mobility is often challenging, especially for patients with transfemoral, or above-knee, amputations. In the past decades, new types of knee prosthetics have entered the market. The standard care in Europe and the US at this moment is the mechanical, or non-microprocessor controlled, knee (NMPK). While the production costs of these NMPK's are lower than those of the MPK's (microprocessor controlled knee), consumer prices still reach up to $5000. Recently, the ReMotion Knee ($80) was developed as a new and affordable alternative to the currently available mechanical knees. The ReMotion Knee is mostly used in low-income countries, but has now been approved according to the ISO 10328 standards and has received the CE Mark. This knee could be a more affordable alternative for the prosthetic knees used in high-income countries, thereby decreasing health related costs within the amputation population. However, research on patient's functional abilities and personal experiences with the knee is very limited and has not been investigated within more developed countries. Therefore, the objective of this study is to compare the ReMotion Knee and the current prosthetic knee of patients with a transfemoral amputation or knee-exarticulation in terms of functional mobility, balance, and experienced walking comfort, balance trust, fatigue and performance of the knee. it is expected that the ReMotion Knee will perform slightly worse than the participants' current prosthetic knees.
The STABELISE-HF is an investigator initiated, international, multicentre feasibility study that will investigate the use of a web application called SanaCoach Heart failure in patients with chronic heart failure. SanaCoach heart failure provides patient education, systematic self-monitoring, a care plan repository and facilitates correspondence with patient's care provider.
