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.
Validation of [18F]-FES for imaging of estrogen receptors in the brain The primary objective of the study is to determine if [18F]-FES Positron Emission Tomography (PET) can be used to quantify the estrogen receptor expression in the human brain.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a range of single intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) doses of BG00010 in healthy volunteers, and a range of multiple SC doses of BG00010 in participants with painful lumbar radiculopathy. Secondary objectives of this study are to determine the single IV and SC dose pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of BG00010 in healthy volunteers including assessment of bioavailability by comparing SC exposure to IV exposure in each participant, to determine the multiple SC dose PK profiles of BG00010 in participants with painful lumbar radiculopathy, to assess the single IV and SC dose immunogenicity of BG00010 in healthy volunteers, to assess the multiple SC dose immunogenicity of BG00010 in participants with painful lumbar radiculopathy, and to assess the potential of BG00010 to reduce pain following multiple SC administrations in participants with painful lumbar radiculopathy.
To evaluate the performance and safety of the Cardioband Adjustable Annuloplasty System for repair of functional mitral regurgitation.
Hepatitis C (HCV) infected patients are often in need for an antidepressant. The introduction of Direct Acting Antivirals such as telaprevir has greatly improved treatment outcome of HCV infected patients.Telaprevir has been studied with one antidepressant, escitalopram: plasma concentrations of the antidepressant were reduced by 35% and without dose adjustment this may lead to inadequate treatment of depressive symptoms. There is a need for more data on telaprevir drug interactions with other antidepressants. For a number of reasons, paroxetine may be a good candidate for use together with telaprevir-containing HCV treatment. The interaction between paroxetine and telaprevir has not been studied before.
Botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) is effective and safe in alleviating post-stroke spasticity and reducing the burden of associated symptoms. The hypothesis for this non-interventional study in arm spasticity (AS-NIS early BIRD) is no significant difference between naïve and pre-treated patients. The patients will be divided in sub-groups according to the time interval between occurrence of stroke and start of treatment (early, medium and late start of treatment according to the first and third quartiles time distribution). It is hypothesized that the "early" start of treatment group will have a reduced modified Ashworth scale (MAS) on the elbow and wrist flexors when compared to the "late" start of treatment group.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the clinical responder rate, defined as the proportion of subjects with normal UFC after 6 months of treatment with COR-003 in the Maintenance Phase without dose increase, and to evaluate the range of effective doses in subjects with various levels of hypercortisolism.
Low Level Light therapy (LLLT) has been used for tissue healing in many mucosal diseases that involve wounds, ulcers and inflammation, oral chemotherapy-induced mucositis in particular. Likewise IBD is characterized by chronic tissue inflammation, tissue damage and ulcerations in various extents. Therefore we hypothesize that LLLT might be effective in treating IBD and the Photopill capsule was developed for this purpose. An open-label, interventional, clinical trial was designed for assessment of the safety and feasibilty of the Photopill capsule treatment in patients with mild to moderate Ulcerative Proctitis. Primary endpoints being: safety reflected by the number and severity of adverse events and mucosal appearance at sigmoidoscopies day 14, day 28, day 42 compared to baseline condition. Furthermore clinical and biochemical parameters are monitored during the study.
Various studies have reported cardioprotective effects of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists in the setting of an acute myocardial infarction. In a recent animal study, the protective effect of MR antagonists on infarct size was completely abolished in CD73 knock-out and adenosine A2b receptor knock-out mice, and by co-administration of adenosine receptor antagonists in rats. These findings suggest that extracellular formation of adenosine is crucial for this protective effect and that MR antagonists stimulate extracellular adenosine formation by the enzyme CD73. To investigate whether eplerenone promotes adenosine receptor stimulation by activating CD73, the investigators will measure forearm blood flow in response to various dosages of dipyridamole with the use of plethysmography. Dipyridamole increases the extracellular endogenous adenosine concentration by inhibition of the ENT transporter and induces local vasodilation. Therefore, the vasodilator effect of dipyridamole accurately reflects extracellular adenosine formation by the CD73 enzyme.
The RESPECT study is intended to prospectively assess the impact of PET/CT on the delineation of target volumes and to estimate the proportion of recurrences that could possibly be prevented by the use of PET/CT-based target volume, instead of CT-based. Patients will recieve radiotherapy using CT-based planning, but a PET/CT-based treatment plan will also be made. CT-based and PET/CT-based target volumes will be compared after treatment has been completed. If a locoregional recurrence takes place, the localisation will be compared to the CT-based and PET/CT based clinical target volumes (CTVs). If the local recurrence is located outside the CT-CTV but inside the PET/CT-CTV, the recurrence could possibly have been prevented with PET/CT-based radiotherapy.
This is an open-label, 2-period, absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) and absolute bioavailability study in 6 healthy adult male subjects.
