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.
Physiotherapists are often confronted with patients with (elevated risk for) cardiovascular disease (CVD), even when this is not the primary indication for physiotherapy. Hence, physiotherapists should be able to provide evidence-based exercise advice to these patients, but this has not been assessed. The aim of this study was therefore to assess whether exercise prescriptions by physiotherapists to patients with CVD are in accordance with international recommendations.
The primary objective is to evaluate in participants with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), whether the reduction from baseline in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at Cycle 3 (ΔctDNA) is larger in participants receiving MK-4830 + pembrolizumab in combination with standard of care (SOC) therapy than in those receiving pembrolizumab + SOC therapy.
The purpose of this first-time-in-human (FTiH) study is to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) messenger RNA (mRNA)-based monovalent vaccine (GSK4382276A) candidate against influenza in healthy younger adults (YA) and older adults (OA).
Observational cohort study (partially retrospective, partially prospective) comparing the endoscopic extended totally extraperitoneal prosthesis (eTEP) repair for midline abdominal hernias to open Rives-Stoppa repair (control).
This study aims to assess the antitumor activity and safety of JDQ443 single-agent as first-line treatment for participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors harbor a KRAS G12C mutation and a PD-L1 expression < 1% regardless of STK11 mutation status (cohort A), or a PD-L1 expression ≥ 1% and an STK11 co-mutation (cohort B).
GLORIOSA is a Phase 3 multicenter, open label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mirvetuximab Soravtansine as maintenance therapy in participants with platinum-sensitive ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancers with high folate receptor-alpha (FRα) expression.
Since the beginning of lung screening program in the different countries around the world by chest CT scan, numerous lung nodules and masses of unknown etiology are diagnosed. Usually, the pathological diagnosis is obtained by bronchoscopy. However, peripheral bronchi cannot be seen after the fifth bronchial division as the diameter of the broncoscope is greated than the diameter of the bronchi. Therefore, the Iriscope was developed. It consists in a thin catheter with a mini-camera at its distal extremity. The aime of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic yield of bronchoscopy guided by Iriscope in the setting of peripheral lung nodules and masses supect of malignancy, to compare the Iriscope to endobronchial radial ultrasonography (which is a validated technique to guide bronchoscopy in the setting of peripheral lung nodules and masses) and to evaluate the added value on the diagnostic yield by combining these 2 techniques.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VX-121/tezacaftor/deutivacaftor (VX-121/TEZ/D-IVA) in participants with cystic fibrosis.
Monkeypox (MPX) is a viral zoonosis, caused by the Monkeypox virus (MPXV), a DNA virus that belongs to the Orthopoxvirus genus and is closely related to the variola virus, the causative agent of smallpox. Until recently the spread of MPX was mainly confined to the Central African rainforest and to parts of West Africa. However, in May 2022, several cases of MPX were detected throughout Europe and Northern America, albeit with a different presentation than previously seen. Many questions remain on this new presentation of the disease: what the exact mode of transmission is, how contagious the virus really is and whether asymptomatic carriers exist. With this study the researchers aim to perform a close follow-up study of close contacts of MPX confirmed cases. Participants are recruited among high and very high risk contacts of confirmed monkeypox patients that presented to the ITM for diagnosis (index). Contacts that are asymptomatic (for symptoms compatible with MPXV infection according to national case definitions) at the time of recruitment will be enrolled. Contacts of the index case that are symptomatic at recruitment or become symptomatic during follow-up will be invited for sample collection at different timepoints until 21 days after contact as suspect cases.
The objective of the ADVANTAGE AF Study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the FARAPULSE Pulsed Field Ablation System (FARAPULSE PFA System) for treatment of drug resistant, symptomatic persistent atrial fibrillation (PersAF).
