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 compare the efficacy and safety of aficamten (CK-3773274) compared with metoprolol succinate in adults with symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Persons with affective disorder have a considerably increased risk of cardiovascular disease. To a considerable extent, this is due to an unhealthy life style. At present, no adequate lifestyle interventions are available for these patients. In the present pilot intervention study we study the acceptability and feasibility of a newly developed lifestyle intervention that is specifically tailored to the needs of patients with affective disorders treated in mental health care or general practice.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab 300 milligram (mg) and 150 mg administered subcutaneously (s.c.) for 52 weeks in combination with prednisone tapered over 24 weeks in adult participants with PMR who have recently relapsed.
This case-control study aims to investigate if oral microbioma is associated with developing oral (pre)malignant disease.
This is a first-in-human, open label, Phase 1/2 study to investigate the safety and efficacy of TAS3351 in patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring an acquired C797S epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation.
Rationale: Early diagnosis of sepsis in neonates is complicated as the signs and symptoms are nonspecific. Although blood culture is the gold standard for the diagnosis, false-negative results and long incubation period of 36-72 hours limits the use of blood culture to rule out sepsis at initial suspicion. Since delay in diagnosis may lead to progressive deterioration, antibiotics are often started empirically at initial sepsis suspicion, awaiting results of the blood culture. Consequently, uninfected infants are often unnecessarily exposed to empirical antibiotics. To reduce unnecessary treatment of non-infected infants, an early, sensitive and specific diagnostic tool would be helpful to guide clinicians faster when to discontinue antibiotics. Molecular Culture (MC) via IS-pro is a novel, advanced, molecular culture technique which is able to culture bacteria within 4 hours after blood sampling. MC might thus be a potential diagnostic tool to detect or rule out sepsis in infants quickly, however data on MC for diagnosis of sepsis in this population is limited. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate whether MC is of additive predictive value for the diagnosis sepsis in this vulnerable group. Study design: Prospective observational cohort study. Study population: All infants suspected for neonatal sepsis of both early and late onset will be eligible for study participation. They will be treated according to the standard local guidelines. Intervention (if applicable): In case of a suspicion of sepsis at birth, blood will be collected for a conventional blood culture as part of standard care. Additionally, a blood sample will be collected from the umbilical cord for MC. In case of a suspicion of sepsis not directly postpartum, an additional blood sample will be taken for MC analysis, directly following sampling for conventional culture, implying no extra phlebotomy. Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study parameter is the discordance in positive and negative outcomes of MC compared to outcomes of conventional blood culture. As the diagnostic accuracy of the conventional blood culture (the current gold standard) is being questioned, the predictive value of MC versus conventional blood culture towards clinical sepsis will also be tested.
Taxane efficacy in metastatic prostate cancer is modest due to resistance development. Several clinical phase III studies in metastatic castration-naïve prostate cancer (mCNPC) patients have shown that adding an androgen receptor signalling inhibitor (ARSi) to patients receiving a taxane and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) improves survival endpoints. Adding ARSi darolutamide to docetaxel+ADT in mCNPC patients resulted in a robust OS benefit (HR 0.68). Importantly, the combination of a taxane and darolutamide is not prone to a drug-drug interaction, while there is a detrimental CYP3A4 inducing effect in the case of enzalutamide, resulting in a significant and clinically relevant reduction of cabazitaxel plasma concentrations. The investigators have previously reported preclinical data showing that addition of an androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (ARSi) improves cabazitaxel efficacy, even in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). As treatment options for mCRPC) patients are scarce and patients often develop drug resistance relatively early, a new treatment regimen for this population to delay drug resistance is highly desired. The investigators propose a randomized phase II trial to investigate the efficacy of docetaxel or cabazitaxel plus darolutamide compared to docetaxel or cabazitaxel monotherapy in men with metastatic CRPC, who have progressed on an ARSI.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether intermittent fasting before surgery improves insulin resistance around the time of surgery, compared to carbohydrate drinks and standard fasting before surgery.
A multicentre cross-sectional cohort study to assess the difference in bioprosthetic micro-calcification activity, detected with 18F-NaF PET-CT, as early marker of transcatheter valve degeneration, between patients with vs. without subclinical leaflet thrombosis at five years after TAVI; and between patients with intra-annular vs. supra-annular TAVI prostheses.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if milvexian is at least as effective as apixaban for reducing the risk of the composite stroke and non-central nervous system (CNS) systemic embolism.
