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 objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the COVERA™ Vascular Covered Stent for the treatment of stenotic lesions in the upper extremity venous outflow of the Arteriovenous (AV) access circuit.
RADIANCE-HTN is a randomized, double-blind, sham controlled, 2-cohort study (TRIO and SOLO) designed to demonstrate efficacy and document the safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System in two distinct populations of hypertensive subjects.
Anxiety disorders occur in up to 35% of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and have a negative effect on gait, dyskinesia, freezing, on/off fluctuations, and quality of life. With this Randomized Controlled Trial the investigators intend to 1) develop a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) module for anxiety in PD 2) assess the effectiveness of this module in reducing anxiety symptoms, and 3) study the effects of CBT on cerebral connectivity. Effective CBT treatment of anxiety will provide patients with behavioural and anxiety management techniques that can give lasting benefits, not only on anxiety symptoms, but potentially also on motor symptoms.
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of Radiprodil in suspension form in healthy adult subjects.
Clinical trial to determine the performance characteristics (sensitivity and specificity) of the Bladder EpiCheck test compared to the gold standard cystoscopy and pathology.
This multi-centre open label study will involve a minimum of 260 patients in 2 cohorts: 86 patients with 'early CD' defined as disease duration < 24 months and no other treatments than corticosteroids and/or thiopurines and 174 patients with 'late CD' defined as active disease despite treatment with immunosuppressives and anti-TNF. Patients with intolerance to IS and anti-TNF will also be allowed in the latter group. Participants will be treated with 12 months of open label vedolizumab (study medication followed by commercial medication once reimbursement is available) and undergo monitoring of endoscopic, histological and clinical disease parameters. No randomization or blinding will be performed but the study management will ensure that recruitment in either study group is comparable for number and profile of patients (on/off steroids).
This multi-centre open label study will involve a minimum of 120 patients in 2 cohorts: 60 patients with 'early UC' defined as disease duration < 4 years and no other treatments than aminosalicylates and/or corticosteroids and 60 patients with 'late UC' defined as active disease despite treatment with immunosuppressives (IS) and/or anti-TNF. Patients wih intolerance to IS AND anti-TNF will also be allowed in the latter group. Participants will be treated with 12 months of open label vedolizumab and undergo monitoring of endoscopic, histological and clinical disease parameters. No randomization or blinding will be performed but the study management will make sure recruitment in either study group is comparable for number and profile of patients (extent of disease and on/off corticosteroids).
In an individual cancer patient extensive genetic and phenotypic variation exists between and within tumor lesions. Tumour load in NET patients can be measured with fluorine-18-L-dihydroxyphenylalaninepositron emission tomography (18F-DOPA-PET) scan. This aim of the study is to investigate heterogeneity between tumor lesions within patients with intestinal NET by determining the differences in tracer uptake measured on a 18F- DOPA-PET scan retrospectively.
Background: Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are the most commonly used immunosuppressive drugs to prevent rejection after kidney transplantation. However, the efficacy of preventing rejection comes at the cost of important side-effects. Among the most common side-effects is hypertension. Hypertension after kidney transplantation is clinically relevant, because it increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and is associated with increased graft loss and recipient mortality. The mechanism of CNI-induced hypertension is incompletely understood and, therefore, the treatment is currently empiric. These and other investigators recently showed that CNIs cause salt-sensitive hypertension by activating a sodium transporter in the kidney, namely the thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride cotransporter. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that thiazide diuretics are non-inferior to calcium channel blockers (CCBs) (currently usually the treatment of choice) for the treatment of CNI-induced hypertension. Objective: To compare the blood pressure response to thiazide diuretics and CCBs in patients with CNI-induced hypertension. Study design: Single-center, randomized cross-over trial. Study population: Kidney transplant recipients with a good functioning allograft (eGFR > 30 ml/min) who are hypertensive (daytime systolic blood pressure > 140 mm Hg) and who do not have proteinuria (< 1 g/day). Intervention: Patients will be randomized to receive chlorthalidone (12.5 mg once daily, if needed titrated to 25 mg once daily) or amlodipine (5 mg once daily, if needed titrated to 10 mg once daily). Main study parameters/endpoints: 24-hour blood pressure recording. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Both drugs have long been registered for the treatment of hypertension. The side-effect profile of both drugs is considered to be equal. The burden of the study for the patients are blood pressure measurements using 30-minute automated blood pressure measurement and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement.
This study aims to prove that a strategy of first line local ablation of colorectal liver metastases with microwaves is not inferior to liver resections in terms of survival rates at three years with secondary endpoints being survival at five and ten years, interventional complication rates, length of stay, ablation precision measurements, need for further interventions and health-economic analysis. A cohort of 100 patients treated with CT guided microwave ablation of 1-5 metastases <31mm in size will be followed and compared with propensity scored matched controls from the Swedish liver surgery registry - Sweliv. The study is a multi-institutional effort by the Hepato Pancreatico Biliary (HPB) units in Stockholm Sweden, Bern Switzerland and Groningen in the Netherlands.
