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 primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 2 remdesivir (RDV) regimens compared to standard of care (SOC), with respect to clinical status assessed by a 7-point ordinal scale on Day 11.
The objective is this study is the development and implementation of a smart algorithm to compute an early warning indicator able to predict early patient deterioration.
The current international guidelines for CRC surveillance in IBD recommend as first choice the use of chromoendoscopy, and as an alternative high-definition white light endoscopy (HDWLE) for optimal dysplasia detection, based on data from clinical trials. However, data on the superiority of CE over HDWLE are not consistent in literature. The investigators hypothesize that the better performance of CE in some clinical trials is the result of the associated longer procedural time and the fact that every colon segment is examined twice. Currently, no studies have been published evaluating the dysplastic yield of back-to back HDWLE compared to HDWLE with a single pass or CE in patients with IBD. In the present study, the investigators aim to compare the yield of dysplasia/CRC between 1) regular HDWLE, 2) HDWLE back-to-back, and 3) CE.
Phase 2 pilot study, which evaluates the safety and efficacy of Lutetium-177-PSMA radioligand therapy in advanced salivary gland cancer patients.
Rationale: Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF) is a rare, histologically benign, soft tissue tumour. Although incapable of metastasizing, the clinical course is unpredictable and can be aggressive because of local invasive growth. Various treatments are available including; surgical resection, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy and chemotherapy. Nowadays there is a trend towards a more conservative strategy with a wait and see policy because of high recurrence rates after surgical resection. Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is a corner stone in treatment choice and can be used during the disease for monitoring the impact of the disease on physical, psychological and social level. Additionally, HRQL can be in important endpoint for future clinical trials. Today, no HRQL-tools are available which capture the needs of DTF patients. The hypothesis is that patients with DTF have issues on several HRQL domains including physical, social and emotional well-being. For this reason we developed a list of items based on previous research. This study aims to evaluate HRQL issues experienced by DTF patients. Purpose: Multi-centre, cross-sectional, observational study to measure HRQL of DTF patients and to evaluate the prevalence of the experienced problems.
This is a phase 1, first-in-human, multi-center, open-label, single dose cohort study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), exploratory pharmacodynamics (PD), and biomarkers of target engagement of CSL889 following single intravenous (IV) doses in subjects with sickle cell disease (SCD). The study involves sequential dose escalation of cohorts with between-group assessments of key safety and PK variables.
RUC-4 is a novel, promising and fast acting (5-15 minutes) αIIbβ3 receptor antagonist with a high-grade inhibition of platelet aggregation (≥80%) shortly after subcutaneous administration. This study is designed to extend the findings in CEL-01 to patients with ST-elevation myocardial Infarction (STEMI) presenting to the cardiac catheterization laboratory with planned coronary angioplasty.
This is a Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the subcutaneous formulation of efgartigimod in adults with CIDP.
The obesity epidemic calls for new therapeutic opportunities to prevent and treat obesity and its comorbidities amongst which are insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases. Recent evidence suggests that tissue oxygenation plays an important role in cardiometabolic health. Remarkably, individuals residing at high altitude (hypobaric hypoxia) are less prone to develop type 2 diabetes mellitus as compared to individuals living at sea-level (normobaric normoxia). Furthermore, there is evidence to suggest that normobaric hypoxia exposure may improve glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity in both rodents and humans. The level of physical activity is an important determinant of insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis. It is well established that performing physical activity improves glucose uptake in the short term, and glycemic control in the long term. Interestingly, recent studies have demonstrated that an acute bout of exercise under hypoxic conditions (inhalation of air containing less oxygen) may lead to a more pronounced improvement in plasma glucose concentrations and/or insulin sensitivity as compared to normoxic exercise. However, the effects of repeated hypoxic exercise bouts on glucose profile throughout the day (i.e. 24h continuous glucose monitoring) remain elusive. In the present randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, cross-over study study, the investigators will investigate the effects of exercise under mild normobaric hypoxic conditions (FiO2, 15%) for 4 consecutive days (2 x 30-min cycling session at 50% WMAX) on postprandial substrate metabolism and 24h-glucose level in overweight/obese subjects with impaired glucose tolerance. The investigators hypothesize that 4 consecutive days of exposure to mild hypoxia while performing moderate intensity exercise improves glucose homeostasis in overweight and obese individuals with impaired glucose homeostasis.
Recently, three-dimensional scanning of the torso has been proposed as an alternative for two-view chest radiographies and computed tomography to determine the severity of pectus excavatum without exposure to ionizing radiation. The range of three-dimensional scanning systems is broad with even varying systems being used within hospitals. Most of these scanning systems have been validated for accuracy and reproducibility, no comparison between these systems is known. In addition, severity measures of pectus excavatum, as well as other research outcomes, surgical planning techniques, and analysis methods are based on a single imaging system. It is subsequently essential to determine whether different imaging systems can be used interchangeably regarding accuracy and reproducibility. The aim of this study was to assess the reproducibility and accuracy between three commonly used three-dimensional scanning systems.
