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.
The overall goal of this project is to increase independent mobility in populations with complex movement disorders, such as severe cerebral palsy, by adapting The Wheelchair Skills Training Program (WSTP) to the needs and capabilities of this population. The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of an adapted Wheelchair Skills Training Program tailored for children with complex movement disorders and its impact on wheelchair mobility skills. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of an adapted Wheelchair Skills Training Program tailored for children with complex movement disorders, and its impact on stress, fatigue, and symptoms of the movement disorder, and to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of an adapted Wheelchair Skills Training Program tailored for children with complex movement disorders, and its impact on participation. The investigators hypothesize an improvement in wheelchair skill capacity and performance post-intervention compared to pre-intervention. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that the levels of stress and fatigue are in the general low to moderate throughout the training sessions. However, the investigators also expect that higher levels of (perceived) stress and fatigue negatively impact task performance and provoke the symptoms of the movement disorder. The investigators hypothesize that participation will improve post-intervention compared to pre-intervention.
The BARISTA study tests the safety and efficacy of the Restorer stent from the company iVascular. This stent is a medical device that is already approved for use in Europe, to treat stenotic (narrowed) iliac arteries. 200 Belgian patients from 13 different hospitals will be included in this study. Patients will be medically monitored for 2 years from the day of the study procedure. The treatment of the stenotic iliac arteries will be according to the standard of care, using the Restorer stent. This endovascular treatment consists of introducing the necessary materials in the blood vessels by a puncture in the groin under general or local anaesthesia, after which a thin plastic tube will be inserted into the femoral artery through the puncture site, until the stenotic iliac artery is reached. Medical imaging is done by angiography. The stenotic/occluded section of the artery will first be dilated by inserting and inflating a balloon. Next, the Restorer stent will be placed and, if necessary, another balloon may be inserted and inflated to allow the stent to fit nicely to the vessel wall and optimise the result. As per standard of care, follow-up will be done in the hospital after 1, 6, 12, and 24 months. During these visits, an ultrasound scan of the treated artery will be taken to evaluate the patency of the blood vessel. Also, two short questionnaires will be completed asking about the quality of life and walking difficulties. The use of medication will be recorded. If adverse events are experienced, they will be reported.
The primary objective of the study is to: • Evaluate the safety and tolerability of REGN5381 and REGN9035 administered alone or sequentially. The secondary objectives of the study are to: - Evaluate the ability of single intravenous (IV) doses of REGN9035 (compared to placebo) to reverse the acute hemodynamic effects of REGN5381 - Evaluate the hemodynamic effects of single IV doses of REGN5381 - Evaluate the persistence of the hemodynamic effects of single IV doses of REGN5381 and the reversal of REGN5381 effects by REGN9035 (compared to placebo) - Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of single IV doses of REGN5381 and REGN9035 administered alone or sequentially
This is a multicenter, open-label, phase I/II clinical study, to assess the safety, tolerability, antitumor activity, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of EOS884448 (also known as EOS-448 or GSK4428859A), alone or in combination with iberdomide with and without dexamethasone in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
The purpose of this study is to learn whether adding abemaciclib to abiraterone plus prednisone prolongs the time before prostate cancer gets worse. Participation may last approximately 60 months.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of etrasimod for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis in adolescents (≥ 12 years up to < 18 years of age). Participants who will complete the total 52-week treatment period will have the opportunity to continue in a Long-Term Extension (LTE) Period of up to 4 years (5 years after study enrollment), or until marketing authorization is obtained in the participant's country, whichever comes first.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of retifanlimab plus INCAGN02385 and retifanlimab plus INCAGN02385 and INCAGN02390 compared with retifanlimab alone as first-line treatment in PD-L1-positive and systemic therapy-naive recurrent/metastatic (R/M) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).
This study is open to children and adolescents with interstitial lung disease (ILD) that causes lung fibrosis. This is a study for people who took part in a previous study (study 1199-0337, InPedILD™) and for people who are between 6 and 17 years old and have fibrosing ILD. This study tests a medicine called nintedanib. Nintedanib is already used to treat different types of lung fibrosis in adults. The purpose of the study is to find out how well long-term treatment with nintedanib is tolerated in children and adolescents. All participants take nintedanib capsules twice a day. Participants are in the study for at least 1 year and 5 months or until nintedanib or other treatment options become available outside of this study. During the first 3 years, they visit the study site about 15 times. Afterwards, they visit the study site every 3 months. The doctors collect information on any health problems of the participants.
The purpose of the current research project is to examine if the healthcare professionals (HCPs) knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behavior about the management of low back pain (LBP) patients changes following an e-learning intervention (experimental interactive e-learning versus traditional non-interactive e-learning)
Pediatric cardiac surgery has a relatively high morbi-mortality. Despite great advances in surgical techniques, today the mortality rate is about 3% and morbidity is about 30-40%. Outcome has been related to demographic factors, like age; peroperative factors, like duration of cardiopulmonary bypass as well as postoperative factors like positive fluid balance. Willems et al defined a new score (MODS2), an outcome score combining either patient's death or a high postoperative morbidity. This morbidity is defined as minimum of 2 organ failures: either respiratory insufficiency, prolonged use of inotropic agents or renal insufficiency. The aim of this study is to identify pre and peroperative factors which are predictors of MODS2. Patients operated between 2008 and 2018 for pediatric cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass will be included. Variables extracted from our database will be: sex, ASA score, cyanotic cardiac pathology, redo surgery, RACH1 score, use of antifibrinolytic agents, aortic cross-clamping, deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, selective cerebral perfusion, red cell transfusion in the operating room, administration of fresh frozen plasma in the operating room, age, preoperative weight, weight difference between preop weight and weight at postop day 2, emergency surgery, duration of aortic cross clamping, duration of selective cerebral perfusion, duration of cardiopulmonary bypass, duration off deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, duration of surgery, minimal core temperature, cardiopulmonary priming volume, calculated hemodilution, use of red blood cells in the cardiopulmonary bypass priming, preoperative hemoglobin, preoperative hematocrit, preoperative platelet count, preop international normalized ratio, preop fibrinogen, preop creatinin, toal fluid balance, blood loss during surgery. A statistical analysis (see detailed description) will be used to establish a prediction model for MODS2. The variables describing best the MODS2 outcome will be retained.
