There are about 243 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Cyprus. 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.
As in the whole world, there is an increase in the elderly population in the TRNC. However, no systematic care is provided for the registration and follow-up of elderly individuals. In this study, it is aimed to determine the health care needs of the elderly with a systematic method with the Omaha Classification System (OSS), which is used in the home care system in the world and in Turkey, and to examine the effectiveness of the nursing interventions applied according to the health care needs of the elderly people. With this method, it is thought that the continuity of monitoring and monitoring the health care needs of elderly individuals with a systematic approach will be ensured.
Prospective, multicentric, single arm, POC study to evaluate the value of CtDNA in follow-up of patients treated with everolimus, with or without somatostatin analogues for advanced gastroenteropancreatic or lung neuroendocrine tumours.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended dosing with Eplontersen in participants with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloid polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN).
The aim of our study is to compare the effects of progressive exercise therapy, administered as a home program under the supervision of a physiotherapist, on adduction angle, pain, functional status, quality of life, and kinesiophobia in individuals aged 18-64 years with a hallux valgus angle of 15-40 degrees (mild-moderate).
Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of thymus honey on radiation induced-oral mucositis and xerostomia. Background: Oral mucositis and xerostomia are two of the most severe side effects that head and neck cancer patients confront during and after the completion of radiotherapy. Although several medications are used for their treatment, these fail to provide a fully effective and comprehensive management. Honey and thyme have been studied for the management of various treatment-related side effects. Design: Α double blinded randomised controlled trial will be used for this study. Methods: 200 head and neck cancer patients who receive radiotherapy will be included in this study. Patients will be randomised and divided into two equal groups of 100 participants; the intervention group (oral spray with thyme and honey + standard care) and the control group ( placebo spray + standard care). Assessments with xerostomia and oral mucositis scales additionally to 4 self-administered questionnaires will occur in both groups at baseline and then weekly and 6 months following completion of treatment. The duration of the study will be 3 years from the day of approval of this research protocol.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the impact of embryo distance from fundal endometrium, measured 60 minutes after transabdominal ultrasound guided embryo transfer(ET), on clinical pregnancy rates(CPR) and live birth rates(LBR) in fresh oocyte donation(OD) cycles.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a multifactorial education and support program for the prevention of cancer-related cachexia syndrome, for patients and their family caregivers during anti-cancer treatment.
Radioligand therapy (RLT) using Lutetium-177 labelled PSMA is a promising new therapeutic approach to treat metastatic prostate cancer. This tumor-specific treatment is directed against prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), which is overexpressed in prostate cancer cells. In the last few years, several lutetium-177 (177Lu, β emitter) labeled PSMA ligands have been developed and are currently applied to treat metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer patients. To date, there are no prospective randomized studies published using this treatment in the hormone sensitive setting or in oligometastatic prostate cancer. Therefore, this study we will evaluate the effect of 177Lu-PSMA in patients with hormone sensitive oligo-metastatic prostate cancer.
Efficient health care systems for the management of chronic diseases in the community may improve clinical outcomes and simultaneously encourage patients to remain healthy. Supportive care, may contribute to empower heart failure (HF) patients for self- management and providing them with the follow-up and care based on their needs and values through the HF trajectory. To develop the current program an assessment of the support needs of HF patients' will be undertaken and the investigators will take into consideration of their personal preferences, for instance means of communication and way of exercise as part of the intervention. The present study aspires to evaluate the effectiveness of an individualized supportive care management program in terms of the four different components that comprise supportive care in HF. The objectives of this study are to: 1. Determine supportive care needs of HF patients as reported in the literature. 2. Explore Cypriot patients' identified supportive care needs. 3. To develop and test a self-management supportive care programme for HF patients.
