There are about 55 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Albania. 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.
International, multicenter, epidemiological study to demonstrate the correlation and predictive value of lyso-Gb1 concentration with the clinical severity of naïve, initially non-ERT/SRT Gaucher disease type 1 and during the study ERT/SRT-newly started Gaucher type 1 patients and to correlate lyso-Gb1 concentration with the clinical improvement of ERT or SRT treated Gaucher type 1 and the clinical course of non-treated patients based on GD-DS3
Multicentre, randomised, open label, non-inferiority active-controlled trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of a 12-months treatment with deferiprone (DFP) at dose of 75-100 mg/kg/day versus deferasirox (DFX) at dose of 20-40 mg/kg/day in paediatric patients (1 month < 18 years old) affected by hereditary haemoglobinopathies and requiring frequent transfusions and chelation.
The long acting GnRH antagonist degarelix will be tested for the treatment of women with endometriosis recurrence compared with classical GnRH analog treatment. Pain symptom disappearance and disease free time during follow-up will be the outcomes for establishing which medical treatment is the best in endometriosis recurrence treatment.
This multicenter, two-cohort, non-randomized, open-label study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of assisted and self-administered SC Herceptin as adjuvant therapy in participants with early HER2-positive breast cancer following tumor excision. Participants will receive Herceptin 600 milligrams (mg) SC every 3 weeks for 18 cycles, either by an assisted administration using a conventional syringe and needle/vial formulation (Cohort A) or with assisted and self-administration using a single-use injection device (SID) in selected participants (Cohort B).
Study assessing cognitive function and physical activity in people with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis.
This multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneously administered rituximab in comparison with observation only as maintenance therapy in participants with relapsed or refractory indolent Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). All participants will receive induction therapy with rituximab (375 milligrams per square meter [mg/m^2] intravenously [IV] in Cycle 1, then 1400 mg subcutaneous [SC] every 3-4 weeks) plus standard chemotherapy for 6-8 months; followed by 24 months of maintenance I period with rituximab (1400 mg SC every 8 weeks). Participants completing therapy and showing partial or complete response will be randomized to receive either rituximab (1400 mg SC every 8 weeks) or observation with no treatment during maintenance II period and will be followed for at least 15 months. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or end of study, whichever occurs first.
Prospective Evaluation of a RIsk Score for postoperative pulmonary COmPlications in Europe (PERISCOPE) is a multi-centre, international observational study of a random-sample cohort of patients undergoing a nonobstetric in-hospital surgical procedure under general or regional anaesthesia during a continued 7-day period of recruitment.
This observational study will assess factors leading to dose reductions/treatment discontinuations and the effect on sustained virological response in patients with chronic hepatitis C receiving a long-acting interferon (e.g. Pegasys/peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin. Data will be collected from each patient for the duration of their treatment and for up to 6 months thereafter.
This prospective observational study will assess the efficacy and safety of Mircera (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta) in clinical practice in patients with chronic kidney disease, in pre-dialysis or on dialysis, initiated on Mircera treatment. Data from each patient will be collected over 12 months of treatment.
This multi-center study evaluates the safety and efficacy of vemurafenib in participants with BRAF V600 mutation-positive, surgically incurable, and unresectable Stage IIIC or IV (American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC]) metastatic melanoma.
