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.
This study will be done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab or placebo. Participants will get study medicine for once-monthly injections either in a pre-filled syringe to inject the study medicine into a skinfold or a pen-injector to inject the study medicine into flat skin. The study is expected to last for up to 4 years. Participants will have up to 20 clinic visits. Participants will have to use a study app on their phone to record and share information about all their injections of study medicine and to fill in questionnaires.
In this pilot study the effect and safety of the use of steroid eye drops in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (cCSC) will be evaluated. The study is conducted as a randomized single-blind placebo-controlled trial. Forty patients will be randomized to either steroid eye drops or placebo eye drops. Patients will self-administer the eye drops three times a day for four weeks.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of QRL-201 in people living with ALS
Rationale: Alcohol-Avoidance Training (AAT) has been used successfully to strengthen avoidance-tendencies in patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD). AAT is already recommended in German clinical treatment guidelines as an evidence-based treatment for AUD and may be incorporated in the next revision of the Dutch clinical guidelines on AUD. Studies in other fields (semantic learning) suggest that spaced learning may be superior to massed learning, but this has not been studied with regard to AAT. Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of spaced versus massed AAT sessions. Study design: a two armed, randomised controlled trail. All participants will receive AAT in addition to routine clinical care in an inpatient setting (Treatment As Usual; TAU). AAT sessions in the experimental group (AAT-S) will be spaced out over four weeks following detoxification. Sessions in the control group (AAT-M) are massed within one week following detoxification. Assessments of alcohol consumption and craving take place before the start of AAT (baseline: T0, timeframe: last 30 days before admission (alcohol use) or past week (craving)) at three (T1) and six months follow-up (T2). Study population: 200 patients with a primary DSM-5 diagnosis of AUD who receive TAU at three addiction care sites (clinical facilities 'Zevenaar', 'Tiel' and 'Wolfheze') of IrisZorg. Patients have finished alcohol detoxification, age ≥ 18, have good Dutch proficiency and have given written informed consent. During the follow-up assessments they are likely to have progressed to regular outpatient addiction treatment. Intervention: During their four week (minimum) admission all participants receive TAU, which includes Community Reinforcement Approach (CRA) (Meyers & Smith, 1995) grouptraining, AAT, sociotherapy and pharmacotherapy. AAT is a Cognitive Bias Modification paradigm that is used to retrain alcohol approach biases. In AAT participants must react to pictures of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages with a joystick to the tilt of the pictures which are presented on a computer screen. In current routine clinical care AAT sessions are massed in the first week after detoxification (control condition: AAT-M). In the experimental condition AAT trails will be spaced out over four weekly sessions instead of one week (AAT-S). Main study parameters/endpoints: Changes from baseline to three and six month follow-up in: 1. Mean daily units of alcohol consumed (past 30 days); at baseline this refers to the 30 days directly pre-admission). 2. Mean ratings of mean alcohol craving (past seven days). Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Participants in both conditions will receive the same amount of AAT sessions and trials. Sessions in the AAT-S condition will be spread out over four weeks. Participants in this condition will therefore be exposed to AAT alcohol pictures over a longer period. Given our current experience of AAT as part of TAU, we expect little risk of participants experiencing more sensations of craving. Alcohol (use) is discussed daily during admission as part of TAU. As an extra burden, participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire before the first AAT session. Participants will be approached for follow-up assessment three and six months following the first month of inpatient treatment. Participants receive an incentive (a voucher worth €15,-) after completing all FU assessments, as a compensation for the extra burden.
Part A: The purpose of this part is to assess the safety of GEH200520 and GEH200521 (18F) when administered to patients with solid cancer. Subjects will be requested to complete 3 study visits: 1 screening visit, 1 imaging visit (over 24 hours) and 1 follow-up visit (7 days later). The estimated duration of Part A is 21 days. Part B: The purpose of this part of the study is to assess the imaging quality and findings as well as the safety and tolerability of GEH200520 and GEH200521 (18F) when administered to patients with cancer before and after immunotherapy treatment. Subjects will be requested to complete 7 study visits: 1 screening visit, the first imaging visit, followed by 2 immunotherapy immune-checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment visits and 2 additional imaging and 1 follow-up visit . The estimated duration of Part B is approximately 64 days.
An increasing number of cancer patients are eligible to receive immunotherapy. Efficacy and tolerance have been demonstrated in multicentre randomized clinical trials with positive results. However, real-life experience differs from clinical trial results, especially regarding the management of potential adverse events. HR-QoL (Health Related Quality of Life) is one of the components of QoL (Quality of Life) in its broad acceptation and is certainly the only one usually collected in trials while little is known about QoL in cancer patients treated in the 'real-world'. QUALITOP partners intend to bring together all relevant longitudinal information present in large heterogeneous data (big data) to estimate patient QoL and find surrogate markers of QoL and its evolution. Within the QUALITOP consortium, 5 countries will collect prospective clinical and QoL data and also retrospective clinical data, and share it. This project will enable collecting, managing, sharing, modelling, processing, and exploiting big data on QoL. Furthermore, beyond the description of QoL, analytical tools (including causal inference methods and machine learning) are needed to understand the determinants of QoL and their complex relationships with irAEs (immune related Adverse Events) in a big-data context where standard statistical techniques would be limited. Artificial intelligence and causal models may be applied and developed to empower the patient, prevent adverse medical conditions, and promote QoL. The created knowledge will enable proposing guidelines for promoting better QoL. QUALITOP aims at identifying the determinants of health status regarding immunotherapy-related adverse events (IR-AEs, such as toxicities) depending on the patient's profile in a real-world context. The richness of QUALITOP is in the diversity of the experts who will collaborate in it. Clinicians involved in the care (thus the health status of the patients) will collaborate with psychologists and sociologists to understand and integrate complementary dimensions of QoL related to immunotherapy. Experts in pharmacovigilance and pharmacists will investigate the IR-AEs and their associations with patient behaviour and non-drug consumption. Epidemiologists, data scientists (including bioinformaticians and biostatisticians) and economists will extract information from the data and develop simulation models to produce knowledge. The project will take place in close relation with patient associations that will interact with experts to design the analyses, interpret their results, and proceed to their dissemination. The main objective is to collect data of patients receiving immunotherapy in order to describe its impact in their quality of life. - Create the first real-life cohort of cancer patients treated with immunotherapy within a context of multidimensional management (with data on clinical information, health-related QoL (HR-QoL), IR-AEs, drug consumption, lifestyle, and administrative data). - Accelerate knowledge directed to different stakeholders (patients, relatives, clinicians, pharmacists, health authorities, and the general public) for a better understanding of the determinants of QoL and its optimization after immunotherapy through the development of innovative analytic tools (artificial intelligence and causal models). - Produce policies and recommendations to improve patients QoL and participate in the implementation of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) for 4P medicine (Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, Participative) in immunotherapy for cancer patients.
This study will establish whether prolonged chronic dosing with secukinumab is needed in participants with Non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, (nr-axSpA) who have achieved remission. Remission is defined as Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score - C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) Inactive Disease (ID) response (ASDAS-CRP < 1.3). Maintenance of remission on continued secukinumab treatment will be evaluated compared to placebo using a randomized withdrawal design. The primary outcome measure for this study is the proportion of participants remaining flare-free at Week 120.
The main goal is to investigate whether beta cell mass is correlated to beta cell function after autologous faecal microbial transplantation (FMT) in patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes
Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) can be treated successfully with allergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) for 3-5 years. This relative expensive and prolonged treatment is not suitable for everyone and therefore it is important to predict who will benefit from this therapy early after the start of treatment. This project will investigate whether a BAT with nasal fluid can detect inhibition during immunotherapy in comparison with a BAT with blood.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in the pk/pd profiles of magisterial dexamfetamine and Tentin in adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Q1: is there a difference between pk/pd profiles of the two forms of dexamfetamine? Q2: how does the pharmacokinetic variability influences the objective and subjective (side) effects experienced by adult patients with ADHD? Participants will: - take the Quantified behavior Test for analysis of objective effects. - undergo blood sampling for analysis of the plasma concentration of dexamphetamine. - undergo blood pressure and heart rate measurements. - fill out 4 types of questionnaires. Researchers will compare the outcomes between magisterial dexamphetamine and Tentin use in a crossover setting.
