There are about 13446 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Belgium. 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.
Study participants will be screened during the platform study and randomly assigned to receive mirikizumab or another intervention. The purpose of the mirikizumab study is to evaluate efficacy, safety, tolerability, and how well mirikizumab absorbs into the body of pediatric participants with Crohn's disease. Study periods for the intervention-specific appendix (ISA) will be as follows: - A 12-week induction period - A maintenance period from Week 12 to Week 52, and - A safety follow-up period up to 16 weeks. The study will last about 74 weeks and may include up to 19 visits.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical consequences following the detection of postoperative atrial fibrillation or flutter (POAF) using a remote heart rhythm monitoring strategy with a photoplethysmography based smartphone technology in the early postoperative period after discharge.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant in a population of adults that are unsuitable for triptan medications due to a previous intolerance, lack of efficacy, or contraindication (including a history of clinically-relevant cardiovascular disease).
The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab (MK-4280A) with physician's choice chemotherapy of bendamustine or gemcitabine in participants with PD-(L)1-refractory, relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin Lymphoma. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab. The primary study hypotheses are that coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab is superior to physician's choice chemotherapy with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
The use of cardiac output monitoring to guide intraoperative fluid management and inotropic drugs as part of a hemodynamic therapy algorithm reduce the complication rate in major abdominal surgery. The FloTrac/Vigileo system (© Edwards Lifesciences) (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) device estimate cardiac output by using arterial pulse contour analysis. The accuracy of FloTrac/Vigileo have been proven in patients with normal cardiac index. Most of studies regarding FloTrac/Vigileo were performed in patients in horizontal supine position, which is not usually the reality in the operation theater during abdominal surgery. Therefore, the investigators realized this monocentric prospective clinical trial to study the accuracy and trending ability of the fourth generation FloTrac/Vigileo system cardiac output estimation in three different positions (horizontal supine, Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg positions) in anesthetized patients undergoing elective major abdominal surgery. The reference method of cardiac output measurement used was the transesophageal echocardiography.
To date, the diagnosis of telomeropathies is based on telomere length measured in blood cells. However, this type of analysis is not always sufficient because some mutations underlying the development of telomeropathies are not associated with abnormal shortened telomeres. Since telomere dysfunction analysis cannot be performed on blood cells, it is mandatory to have access to another cellular material. To date, skin biopsies are performed to obtain fibroblasts. However, this technique is relatively invasive. The aim of this project is to assess whether nasal epithelial cells obtained through nasal brushing could offer the opportunity to detect cellular alterations and mutations involved in telomeropathies, in a mildly invasive way. If successful, this technique could become a non-invasive clinical tool for the diagnosis work-up of telomeropathies. Moreover, investigators aim to assess whether olfactory function is impaired in patients with telomeropathies.
This clinical study will evaluate the vaccine candidate rNV-2v, which is under development to prevent disease triggered by noroviruses. Noroviruses are one of the leading causes of gastrointestinal diseases in the world. Norovirus infections can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and cramping. Noroviruses can spread easily, especially in hospitals, schools, military barracks and ships. At the moment, there is no vaccine available to prevent norovirus infections or disease. This clinical trial will look at the safety and tolerability of an investigational vaccine that is being developed to prevent norovirus-related disease. The trial will also look at whether the immune system produces a response to the investigational study vaccine. The study vaccine is a combination of two different types of norovirus antigens. In contrast to similar vaccines under development, the vaccine studied here adds no substances (adjuvants) to increase or modulate the immune response. The study vaccine is produced using a plant-based system rather than a typically used animal cell system. This is the first time the study vaccine will be given to humans. Two different doses of the investigational study vaccine will be tested in this trial. Either the investigational study vaccine or the placebo will be given as 2 injections. These injections will be given about 1 month apart. The trial will last about 12 months, from the time of enrollment.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition that may cause a rash and itching due to inflammation of the skin. Therapies spread over the skin may not be enough to control the AD in trial participants who require systemic anti-inflammatory treatment. This study evaluates the dosing flexibility of upadacitinib in adult participants with moderate to severe AD. Adverse events and change in the disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is an approved drug for the treatment of moderate to severe/active immune-mediated inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, ulcerative colitis (UC), Crohn's Disease (CD), and AD. The study is comprised of a 35-day Screening Period, a 12-week double-blind period and a 12-week single-blind period. During the double-blind period, participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms and will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive upadacitinib. At 12 weeks during the single blind period, participants will be blinded to the upadacitinib dose based on their EASI response and reassigned to in 1 of 4 arms. After the last study visit, there is a 30-day follow-up visit. Approximately 454 adult participants ages 18 to 64 with moderate to severe AD who are candidates for systemic therapy will be enrolled at up to 160 sites worldwide. The study is comprised of a 12-week double-blind period, followed by a 12-week single-blind period. Participants will receive upadacitinib oral tablets once daily for up to 24 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profile and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TIN816 in hospitalized adult participants in an intensive care setting with a diagnosis of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI).
A phase 2, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the effect of tezepelumab on airway inflammation in patients with COPD.
