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 the study is to determine the efficacy of treatment of anemia with darbepoetin alfa compared to placebo on the composite of time to death from any cause or first hospital admission for worsening heart failure in patients with symptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction and anemia.
The study will compare the efficacy and safety of brivaracetam with placebo in patients with Unverricht-Lundborg disease.
The purpose of this study is to compare the hemostatic efficacy and safety of continuous infusion versus intermittent bolus infusion in the peri- and post-operative setting, employing rAHF-PFM, a recombinant antihemophilic factor manufactured without added human or animal proteins, in previously treated patients with severe or moderately severe hemophilia A (baseline factor VIII level <= 2% of normal) who are undergoing unilateral major orthopedic surgery that requires drain placement. The total study period per subject (from consent to study completion) will vary from approximately 9 to 26 weeks and will involve clinical and laboratory assessments.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of total intravenous anesthesia versus volatile anesthesia on the perioperative inflammatory response during and after major surgery.
Erythropoietin (EPO) treatment in patients with the severe cardiorenal syndrome increases cardiac performance and decreases progression of renal failure by dampening the main driving forces of the cardiorenal syndrome in part via non-erythropoietic pathways. I. Does EPO administration to patients with the severe cardiorenal syndrome increase cardiac performance and decrease progression of renal disease? II. Does EPO treatment affect the main driving forces of the cardiorenal connection, that is, dampen the activated renin-angiotensin system (RAS), attenuate increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), normalize increased sympathetic activity, and decrease inflammation? III. Does EPO treatment positively affect the cell function of patients with the cardiorenal syndrome: 1. are gene expression signatures of leukocytes positively influenced by EPO treatment, 2. does EPO shift the Jak/STAT pathway to a less pro-inflammatory profile in monocytes, and 3. are function and number of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) affected by treatment with EPO in the cardiorenal syndrome? IV. Can the direct actions of EPO be differentiated from the effects on hemoglobin levels?
The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of once-daily rosuvastatin in reducing LDL-C in children and adolescents aged 10-17 years with HeFH from baseline (Day 0) to the end of the 12-week double-blind treatment period.
The present randomized trial was initially intended to study the benefits of a combined treatment with growth hormone (GH) and a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist for pubertal children with idiopathic short stature. However, treatments were stopped in January 2012 at the request of the French drug agency. Therefore, a protocol amendment divided the study in two study periods. Study Period 1 involved combined treatment with somatropin and leuprorelin or treatment with somatropin alone. Participants from France who participated in this Period 1 of the study were asked to participate in a long term safety follow up defined as a Period 2 of the study. Participants from the Netherlands were offered participation in Genetics and Neuroendocrinology of Short Stature International Study (GeNeSIS, clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01088412) for long term safety follow up independent of this study.
The purpose of this study is to provide early access of TMC125 to HIV-1 infected patients who have failed multiple antiretroviral (ARV) regimens. Information on safety and tolerability aspects of TMC125 in combination with other ARVs in treatment-experienced HIV-1 patients with limited treatment options will be assessed. Available data regarding the effectiveness of the drug will also be collected. To be eligible, patients should be failing their current ARV regimen or be on a treatment interruption, should have previously received 2 different protease inhibitor (PI) containing regimens and be at least 3-class experienced (protease inhibitors [PI], nucleoside/tide reverse transcriptase inhibitors [N[t]RTIs] and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [NNRTIs]) or at least 2-class experienced (PIs and N[t]RTIs) with primary NNRTI resistance. TMC125 will be administered in combination with an investigator-selected background of additional ARVs from the list of allowed medications.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of 3% (w/w) GW842470X cream applied to involved skin of adult patients with moderate atopic dermatitis using the Eczema Area Severity Index (EASI) assessment of disease severity and to investigate the safety of and tolerability of 3% GW842470X cream on diseased skin of adult patients.
This study will compare two treatment strategies (doubling the dose of inhaled steroids or adding a long acting beta2 agonist to the inhaled steroid at the same dose) in children not controlled by inhaled steroid alone at medium dose. The fixed combination SERETIDE 100/50 one inhalation twice daily will be compared to FLIXOTIDE 100 two inhalations twice daily.
