There are about 9702 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Poland. 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 OPTIMISE-CKD CEE study design will create a real-world evidence platform that systematically leverages the routine data collection made by Investigators and will help obtain relevant insights from clinical practice. This study is likely to include a more heterogeneous population compared with the constraints required by interventional study protocols. Treatment decisions, clinical outcomes, and common treatment scenarios in the context of routine care of CKD are likely to be more generalizable than those from clinical trials. It is important to assess the current CKD treatment with dapagliflozin. The research questions can be divided into two categories: 1. What does the dapagliflozin utilisation in CKD look like? a. Who are being treated? 2. What are the selected outcomes of interest and treatment patterns among CKD patients treated with dapagliflozin, with or without type 2 diabetes (T2D) up to 12 months post-initiation? Primary objective is to characterize dapagliflozin utilisation in clinical practice, by describing treatment naïve patients who are treated with dapagliflozin for CKD. Secondary objectives are to describe selected outcomes of interest and treatment patterns among CKD patients treated with dapagliflozin up to 12 months post-initiation. The OPTIMISE-CKD CEE study is a multinational, observational, longitudinal cohort study, with a pre-post design, which will include patients who are treated with dapagliflozin with CKD in real-world clinical practice, utilising secondary data sources. This is a secondary data collection study, where variables are extracted from electronic or paper medical records. Seven Central Eastern Europe countries are planned to participate in the study: Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia. A total number of 1090 patients are estimated to be included in the study. The study population will consist of adult patients with CKD who meet the country-specific label for dapagliflozin as treatment for CKD across CEE.
Perioperative hypotension is a risk factor for perioperative complications. Advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence have produced an algorithm that predicts the occurrence of hypotension episodes by analyzing an arterial pressure waveform. This technology has not been validated in thoracic surgical patients undergoing lung resections with the use of one-lung ventilation (OLV). We planned an observational, prospective multi-centre cohort validation study of the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) in patients undergoing lung resection procedures with the use of one-lung ventilation and a lung-protective strategy.
The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of re-irradiation using focal stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with local recurrence of prostate cancer after definitive or post-operative radiotherapy. The main question is the tolerance of such treatment, concerning the incidence of Grade ≥ 2 and Grade ≥ 3 GU and GI toxicity. Also the efficacy of SBRT will be measured in terms of Biochemical Control. Secondary endpoints include: Biochemical Response, Metastases-Free Survival, Relapse-Free Survial, Overall Survival and patients' reported tolerance measured with Quality of Life questionnaires (QoL C-30 and PR-25). The evaluation of the tolerance and effectiveness of stereotactic radiotherapy (SBRT) will be performed in 3 subgroups: in patients with local recurrence after conventionally fractionated definitive radiotherapy (Group A) or ultrahypofractionated definitive SBRT (Group C) or after prostatectomy and post-operative radiotherapy (Group B). The study group is planned to include 60 patients.
Transient mild hypothermia (core body temperature 35-32°C) is common and usually without consequences for the brain or other organs. However, prolonged severe accidental hypothermia (core body temperature below 28°C) due to accidents is rare, and usually fatal in more than 50% of cases. Little is known on its physiopathology, on prognostic factors for rewarming decision or ideal rewarming techniques for better survival. Furthermore, complications after successful rewarming are extremely frequent and very often severe or fatal. Accidental hypothermia is a frequent problem during the winter months and can be caused by snow sport accidents, near drowning and urban cold exposure. The International Hypothermia Registry's principle goal is to increase knowledge on accidental hypothermia by creating the largest database on accidental hypothermia which will comprise enough patient data to give a statistical power since the causes of accidental hypothermia and its treatment varies greatly. The International Hypothermia Registry (IHR) will enable improvement of pre- and in-hospital treatment and rewarming methods, study survival predictors and prevention of post-rewarming complications. By this way, the IHR will permit the establishment of evidence-based diagnosis and treatment guidelines.
The study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat participants living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (inactive substance that looks like the study medicine but does not contain any medicine). The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participant's chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study is expected to last for up to 1 year and 4 months.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a long-term condition that occurs when the heart is too weak to pump enough blood to the rest of the body. This results in a reduced supply of the oxygen that the body requires to function properly. The common symptoms of HFrEF include breathlessness, weakness, fatigue, and swelling in the ankles and legs. If left untreated, heart failure can lead to other serious health problems, including damage to other organs, which may result in hospital stays or even death. Vericiguat is an approved drug for use in people with chronic HFrEF. It works by activating a protein called soluble guanylate cyclase, which helps dilating the blood vessels and in turn improves heart function. Currently, treatment with vericiguat starts at a daily dose of 2.5 milligrams (mg), which increases to 5 mg after 2 weeks. The dose is then increased to the target dose of 10 mg after another 2 weeks. In this study, researchers are trying to learn how well participants can tolerate and how safe it is to start vericiguat at a dose of 5 mg. Starting directly at the 5 mg dose is expected to help reach the target dose of 10 mg faster. Participants will take vericiguat 5 mg as a tablet by mouth once daily along with their regular heart medications. At the start of the study, study doctors will check participants' medical history and perform full health check-ups to confirm if they can take part in the study. Throughout the study, study doctors will monitor participants' previous and current medications, their heart health, and their overall well-being. This will help researchers assess how safe the study drug is and if they experience adverse events. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective of whether they think they are related to the study treatment. Access to study treatment after the end of this study is not planned. Everyone, including study doctors and participants, will know what drug the participants receive during the study. Participants may be in the study for about 4 weeks. Participants may not benefit from the treatment as the study is designed to assess safety and tolerability: the duration of the study is very short and participants will be taking a low dose of vericiguat without moving to the target dose of 10 mg during the study. However, the findings of this study may enable people with chronic HFrEF to safely skip one initial dosing step and reach the target dose of vericiguat faster. Participants may experience medical problems such as low blood pressure, upset stomach, nausea, dizziness, and headache. Researchers will monitor and manage all these, and other, medical problems participants may have during the study.
This is an international, multi-center, randomized, prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 study, designed to assess the effect of EryDex (dexamethasone sodium phosphate [DSP] in autologous erythrocytes), administered by intravenous (IV) infusion once every 28 days, on neurological symptoms of patients with Ataxia Telangectasia (A-T).
The main purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of orforglipron compared with dapagliflozin in improving blood sugar control in participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with inadequate glycemic control using metformin. The study will last approximately 46 weeks.
The goal of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of RVU120 when administered in combination with venetoclax to adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are relapsed or refractory to prior therapy with venetoclax and a hypomethylating agent. The study consists of three parts. Part 1 aims to identify the doses of RVU120 and venetoclax that are considered to be safe and tolerated. Part 2 will assess the safety and efficacy of the doses selected. And Part 3 is a confirmatory cohort where patients will be treated at the same doses assessed in Part 2
The goal of this prospective study is to validate the superior vena cava collapsibility index (SVC-CI) as a predictor of fluid responsiveness during laparotomy and open aortic surgery. The SVC-CI and patients' response to fluid will be assessed based on transesophageal echocardiography. The study has three arms, in order to validate SVC-CI under the conditions of laparotomy, aortic cross clamping and high PEEP levels. One of the study arms will be an active comparator arm. The data obtained from this study may help physicians guide intraoperative fluid therapy in a more efficient manner, in order to decrease perioperative mortality.
