There are about 1645 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Czech Republic. 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.
Up to 45 men and women who meet the entry criteria will undergo the gastric plication procedure. The study will assess subject excess weight loss (%EWL) following the study procedure at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30 and 36 months.

This clinical research study will examine whether an oral contraceptive pill taken with a monthly hormone-free interval of 4 days reduces hormone withdrawal associated symptoms compared to an oral contraceptive pill taken with a monthly hormone-free interval of 7 days after 4 cycles of treatment.
The study is planned to evaluate the cognitive functions in subjects with RRMS treated with interferon beta-1a, and its relationship to the fatigue and neurological dysfunction status.
The purpose of this study is to determine if LY2189265 is effective in reducing hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and safe, as compared to Insulin Glargine in participants with Type 2 Diabetes. Participants must also be taking metformin and glimepiride.
This Phase II clinical study is to test safety and efficacy of BT061 against psoriasis given as repeated doses.
This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of NN1250 (insulin degludec (IDeg)) with insulin glargine (IGlar) in subjects with type 2 diabetes currently treated with metformin alone or with metformin combined with an oral anti-diabetic drug (OAD) qualifying for intensified treatment.
Current medical therapies are not able to prevent progression of established macroproteinuira (i.e. diabetic nephropathy) to end-stage renal failure in type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetic patients. In this setting, proteinuria is a major risk factor for mortality. Pancreas transplantation, on the contrary, can revert diabetic nephropathy and thereby prevent end-stage chronic renal failure, with theoretically lower risk of death as compared to current medical therapies.The main objective of this study is to assess superiority of isolated pancreas transplantation versus intensive exogenous insulin therapy in type 1 diabetic patients with overt diabetic nephropathy and mildly reduced renal function. The primary endpoint is a composite efficacy/failure end-point including: patient mortality and renal function impairment during 5 years in patients with badly controlled diabetes and nephropathy resisting to up-to-date nephroprotective therapies.Main secondary objectives are safety and efficacy of both regimens, including proteinuria and renal histology evaluation, metabolic control and quality of life, acute and chronic extrarenal complications of diabetes, pancreas survival and all risks related to the transplant procedure (anaesthesia, surgery and immunosuppression side-effects) and to the intensive insulin therapy management.
Vasculitis is group of diseases where inflammation of blood vessels is the common feature. Patients typically present with fever, fatigue, weakness and muscle and joint aches. These symptoms are very common among many different diseases, not just vasculitis. A clustering of other symptoms, physical examination findings, blood tests, radiology and biopsy help make the diagnosis. There are currently no criteria to help doctors make a diagnosis of vasculitis when a patient presents with these non specific symptoms and they are reliant on previous experience and disease definitions. One of the aims of this project is to develop diagnostic criteria for the primary systemic vasculitides (granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's), microscopic polyangiitis, Churg Strauss syndrome, polyarteritis nodosa, giant cell arteritis, Takayasu arteritis). We, the investigators, will do this by studying a large group of patients with vasculitis and comparing them to a large group of patients that present in a similar way, but do not have vasculitis. By comparing the 2 groups we will create a list of items to differentiate between vasculitis and 'vasculitis mimics'. We also aim to update the current classification criteria. Classification criteria are used to group patients into different types of vasculitis, once a diagnosis of vasculitis has been made, and are useful for studying patients in clinical trials with similar or identical diseases. The current classification criteria (American college of Rheumatology 1990 criteria) were developed 20 years ago, before the availability of some important diagnostic tests (e.g. antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies [ANCA]), and are now not consistent with some of the current disease definitions. Therefore to progress future research in vasculitis, it is important that the classification criteria are updated. We will recruit 260 patients with each of the 6 types of vasculitis and compare them with 1300 controls (patients with the 5 other types of vasculitis), in order to determine the optimal combination of symptoms, signs and investigations that classify each person into the appropriate group.
Study AOP 03-007 was designed as a pivotal study to test, if Anagrelide (Thromboreductin®)was not inferior to HU with respect to efficacy in patients with ET. This approach to demonstrate non-inferiority was based on the following decision points: • ET is a rare disease and recruitment of large patient number (> 1600) to prove superiority was not considered possible. . It was decided to recruit only treatment naïve high risk patients to avoid pre-treatment bias, which further limited the number of patients eligible for the study.
