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.
This study will investigate the effect of tirzepatide on the reduction of morbidity and mortality in adults living with obesity and provide additional evidence for the potential clinical benefits of tirzepatide in this population.
This study will assess the effects of benralizumab on airway dynamics in severe eosinophilic asthma in terms of quantitative computed tomography (CT)-derived measurements of pulmonary structure and function using the Functional Respiratory Imaging (FRI) platform.
Study CP-MGC018-03 is an open-label, two-part, Phase 2 study. Part 1 of the study will enroll participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) previously treated with one prior androgen receptor axis-targeted therapy (ARAT). ARAT includes abiraterone, enzalutamide, or apalutamide. Participants may have received up to 1 prior docetaxel-containing regimen, but no other chemotherapy agents. This part of the study will assess the efficacy and tolerability of vobramitamab duocarmazine (MGC018) in two experimental arms (2.0 mg/kg every 4 weeks [Q4W] and 2.7 mg/kg Q4W) . Approximately 100 participants will be randomized 1:1. Part 2 of the study will enroll participants with locally advanced or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the anus, melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), squamous non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), and small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). Participants must have progressive following at least 1 prior line of standard chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic disease. Participants will receive vobramitamab docarmazine at a dose of 2.7 mg/kg every 4 weeks. Up to 200 participants may be enrolled in Part 2. In both parts, vobramitamab duocarmazine will be administered intravenously (IV) in clinic on Day 1 of each 4-week cycle. Vobramitamab duocarmazine will be administered for up to 26 cycles, approximately 2 years, until criteria for treatment discontinuation are met. Participants will undergo regular testing for signs of disease progression using computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), bone scans, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood tests. Routine examinations and blood tests will be performed and evaluated by the study doctor.
The primary objective is to describe eosinophil infiltration in resected (early stage) NSCLC. Secondary objectives are: - to investigate the correlation of T-Eos and B-Eos in the aforementioned patient population; - to investigate the correlation between T-Eos and overall & disease-free survival; - to investigate the localization of T-Eos (periphery vs. center of the tumor lesions).
The purpose of this study is to assess long-term safety of avacincaptad pegol intravitreal administration for patients with geographic atrophy (GA) who completed Study ISEE2008 (GATHER2) through the Month 24 visit on study treatment (either avacincaptad pegol or Sham).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, including clinical remission of guselkumab subcutaneous (SC) induction compared to placebo in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
This phase 2 trial will evaluate the effects of EP547 in subjects with cholestatic pruritus due to Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) or Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC)
Hospitals face new challenges in providing sustainable high quality care as the prevalence of chronic conditions, multimorbidity and the complexity of care increases. The high burden on healthcare teams, the growing costs and the increasing scarcity in healthcare providers (HCPs) result in unmet needs of patients and their families and a high workload on HCPs. Worldwide there is growing recognition that new care models integrating nurse practitioners (NPs) in interdisciplinary teams could contribute to respond to these challenges. ANP is defined as an "advanced practice nurse (APN) who integrates clinical skills associated with nursing and medicine in order to assess, diagnose and manage patients in primary healthcare settings and acute care populations as well as ongoing care for populations with chronic illness". Despite the proven benefits of integrating NPs in interdisciplinary teams, the introduction of NPs in Belgium is at an early stage. Advanced practice nurses, including NPs, are formally recognized in Belgium since 2019, but there is still no legal framework in which additional rights or agreements compared to other nursing groups are defined. Given the early stage of introduction, little is known about the development, implementation and impact of NPs in the Belgian health care context. Insights in implementation processes and the effectiveness of NP roles at different levels can inform healthcare managers and policy makers for future (nation-wide) implementation in a hospital setting. The overall objective of this longitudinal pre-post mixed methods study is to develop, implement and evaluate the integration of the role of NPs in four different departments in a Belgian university hospital.
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 goal of any novel design or therapeutic strategy to treat atrial fibrillation is to restore normal sinus rhythm and to reduce or eliminate the symptoms due to rapid atrial response. Boston Scientific has developed the FARAPULSE™ Pulsed Field Ablation therapy that uses irreversible electroporation to induce cell death. This Registry is intended to obtain purely observational and prospective real world data and to provide continued evidence on the safety and effectiveness when the FARAPULSE™ pulsed field ablation System is used per hospitals' standard of care.
