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 objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of masitinib at 12 mg/kg/day to sunitinib at 50 mg/day in the treatment of patients with gastro-intestinal stromal tumor (GIST) after progression with imatinib.
Soy protein has a high biological value, and contains several potential health-related nutritional factors, i.e. its amino acids pattern, biological active peptides and non-protein compounds such as isoflavones. In the field of obesity and blood lipids soy protein is well-studied and appreciated; it improves circulating blood lipids and is associated with weight reduction. The effect of soy on insulin resistance, glucose homeostasis and the metabolic syndrome is less frequently studied. However, several molecular mechanisms of action of soy protein make it a promising approach.
VICTORY AF is an IDE, prospective global, multi-center, single arm, controlled, unblinded, investigational clinical study. The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the risk of procedure and/or device related strokes in subjects with persistent or long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing ablation with the Phased RF System.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label trial of pimasertib versus dacarbazine aimed to confirm the activity of pimasertib in previously untreated subjects with N-Ras mutated locally advanced or metastatic malignant cutaneous melanoma by comparing the progression-free survival (PFS) of subjects treated with either pimasertib or dacarbazine and by getting a better understanding of the efficacy, safety, pharmacogenomics (PGx) and their relationship with pimasertib exposure.
Usually videolaryngoscopy using a videolaryngoscope with a classic Macintosh design is performed with the blade in the vallecula and the epiglottis elevated from the vocal cords indirectly, as in direct laryngoscopy. However, during an audit of videolaryngoscopic practice we noticed that, in obtaining the best view, clinicians frequently and inadvertently advanced the blade into the vallecula to get a better view, such that the epiglottis was downfolded and elevated directly from the vocal cords. However, a better view does not necessarily lead to higher intubation success. In this randomized, controlled trial, we want to determine the efficacy of videolaryngoscope-guided tracheal intubation using an alternative position for the blade in patients with normal airways.
This multicenter, open-label study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of pinatuzumab vedotin (DCDT2980S) or polatuzumab vedotin (DCDS4501A) in combination with rituximab (RTX), as well as of polatuzumab vedotin in combination with obinutuzumab in participants with relapsed or refractory (r/r) follicular lymphoma (FL) and r/r diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
A difficult tracheal intubation can be a problem, even if one has taken all precautions. A possible solution can be using a videolaryngoscope in conjunct with the Bonfils® intubation scope. As such, the videolaryngoscope can be used to achieve the best possible view and space of the laryngeal inlet for the insertion and manoeuvring of the Bonfils® intubation scope.
A relatively new and promising development in the area of cardiovascular implantable electronic device therapy is remote patient monitoring (RPM). RPM systems can interrogate the device automatically and send the data from the patients' home to the physician, thereby reducing in-clinic follow-ups. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of RPM + in-clinic follow-up versus in-clinic follow-up only on patient-reported health status and device-acceptance after implantation with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization defibrillator (CRT-D). Secondary objectives are (1) to identify subgroups of patients who prefer RPM over in-clinic visits or vice versa due to specific clinical and psychological factors and (2) To investigate the cost-effectiveness of RPM + in-clinic follow-up compared to in-clinic follow-up only.
The main objective of the European Pediatric Catheter Ablation Registry is to collect data on ablation procedures in the European pediatric population in order to improve the management of this subset of patients.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study of mepolizumab in comparison with placebo in reducing Oral Corticosteroid (OCS) use in subjects with severe refractory asthma. The study consists of four phases, OCS Optimisation Phase (Week -8 to Week 0), and the double-blind treatment period divided into an Induction Phase (Week 0 to Week 4), OCS Reduction Phase (Week 5 upto Week 20) followed by Maintenance Phase (Week 20 to Week 24). During the Optimisation Phase the investigator will adjust the OCS (prednisone/prednisolone) dose according to the Optimisation titration schedule based on a review of Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ)-5 score and exacerbation. In the Induction Phase subjects will be randomized 1:1 (approximately 60 per arm) to receive either mepolizumab (100 mg) administered subcutaneously (SC) or placebo every 4 weeks in addition to their existing maintenance asthma therapy with the lowest dose of OCS from Optimisation Phase. The Induction Phase will allow sufficient time for those subjects randomised to the mepolizumab arm to achieve a decrease in the eosinophilic inflammation prior to the reduction in OCS. During the Reduction Phase, subjects will continue receiving 100 mg mepolizumab/placebo every 4 weeks and the OCS dose reduction will be done every 4 weeks using the reduction titration schedule based on a review of eDiary parameters recorded by the subject, the subjects' exacerbation history, and a review of the signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency. In the Maintenance Phase subjects will be maintained without any further OCS dose adjustment. Subjects who complete the 24 week double-blind period and meet the eligibility criteria, will be offered the opportunity to participate in an open label extension (OLE) study otherwise they will return for a Follow-up Visit 12 weeks after their last dose of double blind study treatment. At each clinic visit, adverse events, safety labs, spirometery parameters and exacerbations will be assessed. The pharmacokinetic samples will be collected in the beginning of the treatment, prior to last dose, at the end of study (exit visit) and the follow up.
