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.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to compare two insulin delivery pens in the everyday life setting of patients with diabetes treated with insulin.
The purpose of this study is to determine: (1) the safety and pharmacokinetics of APL180 administered as a single intravenous infusion in healthy volunteers, and (2) the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple daily intravenous infusions of APL018 in patients with CHD
This is an observational safety study being conducted in Europe comparing patients taking Xagrid to patients taking other cytoreductive treatments. The plan is to enrol at least 750 subjects taking Xagrid with up to 3000 subjects taking other cytoreductive therapies. The study will collect follow up data for 5 years for each patient enrolled that will focus on collecting data related to pre-defined events (PDEs) and Suspected Serious Adverse Reactions (SSARs).
The study is assessing efficacy and safety of three different dosage regimens of grass pollen sublingual immunotherapy in adult patients suffering from grass pollen related rhinoconjunctivitis.
Patients planned for elective conventional coronary angiography will undergo CT coronary angiography (Dual Source CT) in order to assess the correlation of stenosis detection and therapeutic advice between conventional and CT coronary angiography. We hypothesize that their is a good correlation between conventional and CT coronary angiography for stenosis detection and therapeutic advice.
To compare the efficacy of the combination of etanercept 50 mg once weekly plus methotrexate with that of methotrexate monotherapy in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis over 88 weeks.
Our standard immunosuppressive treatment after renal transplantation is a combination of tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and prednisolone. With this regimen the incidence of acute rejection within the first six months after transplantation has dropped to about 20%. The main challenge at present remains to improve long-term outcome by preventing chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN). Since acute rejection is a strong predictor of CAN, a further decrease in the incidence of acute rejection can improve the long-term graft survival. Current strategies to prevent rejection are mainly directed at alloreactive T cells. Recently, the attention for the role of antibodies in the pathogenesis of acute rejection has increased. In addition, anti-B cell therapy was shown to be effective in diseases that were considered to be mainly T cell driven, like rheumatoid arthritis. In the latter case it has been suggested that anti-B cell antibodies may impair the antigen presenting function of B cells. We therefore decided to investigate the effectiveness and safety of the anti-B cell monoclonal antibody rituximab for prophylaxis of acute rejection after renal transplantation. Study design: Double-blind, placebo controlled intervention study. One group receives a single dose of rituximab of 375 mg/m2 intravenously at the time of transplantation, and the other group receives a placebo infusion. Primary Objective: To determine the incidence and severity of biopsy-confirmed acute rejection within the first six months after transplantation. Secondary Outcomes: - Renal function as estimated by the endogenous creatinine clearance at 6 months - Occurrence of chronic allograft nephropathy at 6 months - Cumulative incidence of infections and malignancies at 6 months - Medical costs during the first 6 months after transplantation - Patient and graft survival
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of benfotiamine supplementation in patients with diabetic nephropathy, and to determine whether it will slow down the progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Palliative care in cancer aims at alleviating the suffering of patients. A previous study in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer showed that adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) infusions had a favourable effect on fatigue, appetite, body weight, muscle strength, functional status, quality of life, and survival. Based on these promising results, the present study was designed 1. To evaluate whether the beneficial effects of ATP administration observed in patients with advanced lung cancer would also be present in pre-terminal cancer patients of different tumour types, and 2. To test the feasibility of application of ATP infusions in a home care setting.
To introduce initiation of glargine insulin treatment in primary care based on a patient education program. To show and compare feasibility of group education to individual education program.
