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 is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of bevacizumab to ranibizumab in the treatment of patients with DME (OCT central area thickness > 275 μm) as determined by the change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the study eye from baseline to month 6.
Background: preliminary data have shown that erythrocyte-bound apolipoprotein B (ery-apoB) may be protective against atherosclerosis. However, statins may have an effect on ery-apoB. Objective: to investigate the effect of statins on ery-apoB levels. Study design: a non-randomized intervention study. Ery-apoB will be measured twice in volunteers who are on statin therapy for medical reasons. After a baseline measurement of ery-apoB volunteers will discontinue their statin use for a period of six weeks followed by a second measurement of ery-apoB. Consecutively subjects will start with their original statin therapy again. Study population: patients on statin therapy aged 18 years or older. Intervention: temporary discontinuation of statin therapy for a period of six weeks. Main study endpoints: changes in ery-apoB levels. Risks, burden and benefits on participation: volunteers will visit the outpatient clinic twice, the second visit will be exactly six weeks after the first visit. The volunteers' general practitioner and medical specialist (internist or cardiologist) will be informed about their participation. Subjects have to fast for 10 hours before every visit and venous blood samples will be drawn on both visits (a total of 36ml of blood). Subjects will discontinue their usual statin therapy for a period of six weeks. No major risks are involved with temporary discontinuation of statin therapy in stable chronic cardiovascular disease. Volunteers will receive 25 euro's in total for participation. Participation serves to further investigate the relation of statins and potentially beneficial binding of apoB on erythrocytes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of a resorbable polymer implant (Soft Tissue Regeneration's L-C Ligament) for replacement and regeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Approximately 15 patients at 2-3 different hospitals in Europe will participate in this study. The hypothesis of this study is that the L-C Ligament will successfully regenerate the ACL with clinical outcomes similar to or better than surgical intervention with auto graft tissue.
The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two doses of tiotropium inhalation solution delivered via the Respimat® inhaler once daily in the afternoon in patients (1 to 5 years old) with persistent asthma on top of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) treatment.
This is an observational, multi-center, international disease registry designed to collect longitudinal data and create a knowledge base that will be utilized to improve the care and treatment of patients with LAL Deficiency. Participation in the Registry by both physicians and patients is voluntary.
This is a feasibility study without a primary study hypothesis or statistical comparison.
This study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of treatment with Buparlisib plus Fulvestrant vs. Placebo plus Fulvestrant in postmenopausal women with hormone Receptor-positive (HR-positive), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-negative), aromatase inhibitor (AI)-treated, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose disease progressed on or after mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor (mTORi)-based treatment. Patients were randomized in 2:1 ratio to treatment with buparlisib 100 mg daily in combination with fulvestrant 500 mg or placebo daily in combination with fulvestrant 500 mg. Randomization was stratified according to visceral disease status (present or absent).
The aim of this study is to develop non-invasive MRI, and MRS approaches that will quantify the plaque composition and lipid content of plaques and will have the potential for repeated in vivo measurements. To investigate sensitivity and specificity of 3.0 Tesla MRI and MRS for dimension and composition assessment of carotid artery plaques, in particularly those plaques with lipid rich necrotic cores. This non-invasive cross-sectional study, compares carotid parameters of in-vivo 3.0 Tesla MRI, MRS and B-mode ultrasound with histology specimens collected at endarterectomy.
This study investigated the effects of LCZ696 on insulin sensitivity, lipolysis, and oxidative metabolism in obese hypertensive subjects.
This single-center, open-label study will investigate the pharmacokinetics and elimination of a radiolabelled dose of RO4602522 in healthy male volunteers. The healthy male volunteers will receive a single oral dose of RO4602522.
