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 BioNIR study aims to show that the BioNIR ridaforolimus eluting stent is non-inferior to the Resolute zotarolimus-eluting stent for the primary clinical endpoint of target lesion failure (TLF) at 12 months; that it is non-inferior to the Resolute for the secondary endpoint of angiographic in-stent late loss at 13 months; and that it is more cost-effective.
Novel predictive markers are needed to determine treatment efficacy in pancreatic cancer at an early stage. Preferably, these markers could be determined non-invasively and provide insight into the biology of pancreatic cancer. Several MR techniques can serve for this purpose. However, optimalisation of these techniques is needed and their reproducibility should be assessed.
Several studies have shown that tumour hypoxia may have a negative impact on the outcome of anticancer treatment. Assessment of tumor hypoxia at baseline or shortly after start of treatment may serve as a predictive marker to determine treatment efficacy at an early stage. Preferably, such an assessment is performed in vivo and non-invasively.Non-invasive imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) using the 2-nitroimidazole nucleoside analogue, 3-18F-fluoro-2-(4-((2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1- yl)propan-1-ol (18F-HX4), was tested as a new marker of tumor hypoxia. Before hypoxia-measurements can be clinically implemented for response prediction, the reproducibility of the technique should be assessed for each specific tumor type. Knowledge of reproducibility is needed to determine what change in parameters between two examinations can be considered relevant in an individual patient. Assessment of reproducibility becomes even more important in early response monitoring since the changes in the tumor induced by the treatment may be smaller during the treatment compared to response monitoring after completion of treatment. Also, as image quality of 18F-HX4-PET increases with increasing time intervals after injection, determination of the optimal time point for measurement of hypoxia is warranted.
This Phase 3 study will investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of an oral daily dose of 20 mg or 80 mg tafamidis meglumine capsules compared to placebo in subjects with either transthyretin genetic variants or wild-type transthyretin resulting in amyloid cardiomyopathy.
To investigate the performance and safety of two newly developed convex 1-piece ostomy appliances
The objective of the investigation is to document New Mio 1-piece is non-inferior (no worse) in reducing leakage (4-point scale) compared to Standard of Care.
This prospective evaluation studies the effectiveness of IL cryotherapy in treating keloids and hypertrophic scars in a large population of mixed Fitzpatrick skin types.
Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are especially at risk for invasive candidiasis due to the presence of risk factors. It is known that in critically ill patients, alterations in function of various organs and body systems can influence the pharmacokinetics and hence the plasma concentration of a drug. A study of caspofungin in ICU patients has found a high inter- and intra-individual variability in caspofungin concentration. Factors that caused subtherapeutic caspofungin plasma concentrations were body weight > 75 kg and hypoalbuminemia. Furthermore, an efficacy study showed a lower response rate for caspofungin among patients with a higher disease severity score. As a result of the altered pharmacokinetics, under- or over-exposure of caspofungin can occur in critically ill patients and an adjusted dosage might be necessary in these patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Midazolam given pre-operatively to patients undergoing abdominal surgery improves the quality of recovery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the rate of decline in quantitative viral load measured in hospitalized patients with Influenza A infection
