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.
The primary objective of this study is: - comparison of a safety and effectiveness of third generation DES (biolimus A9 and everolimus) in patients with STEMI treated by primary PCI with OCT guidance. A rate of 9 month MACE (deaths, myocardial infarction, ischemia driven TLR) will be assessed in both groups. The secondary outcomes are a comparison of (using OCT): - number of uncovered stent struts - number of malapposed stents struts - in-stent neointimal volume - in-segment assessment of vessel wall response to DES
The objective of this study is to compare two different strategies of disease management in heart failure patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy devices 1. Remote monitoring with CareLink Network System 2. Standard management of the disease by means of scheduled routine in-patient follow-ups; and to demonstrate that the remote monitoring strategy is superior to the standard strategy, both in terms of clinical effectiveness and total healthcare system utilization.
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Cyclosporine 0.010% eye drops in the treatment of Atopic Keratoconjunctivitis (chronic and severe inflammation of the eye). The study consists of a double-masked phase, and open-labeled phase, and an open-labeled maintenance phase. For the first 3 months of the study, patients will receive either masked Cyclosporine 0.010% eye drops or vehicle four times daily; for the next 6 months, patients may receive open-labeled Cyclosporine 0.010% eye drops four times daily. At month 9, patients who are in remission, will be re-randomized to receive either open-labeled Cyclosporine 0.010% eye drops four times daily or twice daily.
The main purpose of this clinical research trial was to compare the ongoing pregnancy rate between two gonadotrophins for controlled ovarian stimulation (MENOPUR and recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)), in cycles where a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist was used for prevention of premature luteinizing hormone (LH) surge and where a single embryo was transferred at the blastocyst stage.
This study was an extension to study MA21573 [NCT00750880], which was an open label single arm study to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of tocilizumab monotherapy, or combination therapy with non-biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDS), in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Patients who completed the 24 week core study, and had at least a moderate European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) response, were eligible to enter this long-term extension study, and received tocilizumab 8 mg/kg intravenous (iv) every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment was 1-2 years, and the target sample size was > 500 individuals.
Primary objective was to assess the effectiveness evaluated by the time to failure of two doses of teriflunomide in comparison to interferon beta-1a in patients with relapsing Multiple Sclerosis [MS]. Secondary objectives were: - To assess the effect of the two doses in comparison to interferon beta-1a on: - Frequency of relapses, - Fatigue, - Patient's satisfaction with treatment. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the two doses in comparison to interferon beta-1a. The study consisted of a core treatment period with a common end date defined as 48 weeks after randomization of the last participant, followed by an optional long-term extension treatment period until teriflunomide is commercially available in accordance with local regulations.
The primary purpose of this study is to investigate whether administration of ixabepilone results in superior outcome as assessed by overall survival compared with that achieved with standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel or doxorubicin) in women with advanced endometrial cancer that has progressed following first-line chemotherapy.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of experimental (vegetarian) diet compared to conventional diet with similar caloric restriction on insulin resistance, body weight and body composition in type 2 diabetic patients after 3 month diet program and additional 3 month diet program combined with intensive exercise. Hypothesis: Greater improvement in insulin resistance, greater weight loss without compromising the body composition (subjects will lose fat preferentially to lean body mass) and differences in the fatty tissue metabolism will be found in the experimental (vegetarian) group compared to the control (conventional diet) group despite the similar advise on caloric restriction in both diets. The differences between the two groups will increase after an intensive physical exercise program.
This study is conducted in Europe and North and South America. The primary aim of this observational study is to evaluate the frequency and pattern of bleeding episodes in haemophilia patients receiving preventative treatment with activated recombinant human factor VII. The secondary aim is to evaluate which patients are selected for this treatment, the dose and dose intervals used, and the safety of activated recombinant human factor VII when used as prevention. The study also aims to increase understanding of the unmet medical need and clinical relevance of preventative treatment in haemophilia patients.
The purpose of this observational study is to obtain a survey on physical activity in patients who for the first time have experienced symptoms which indicate a high risk for developing multiple sclerosis (MS) and in patients with recently diagnosed MS, and to obtain information on factors potentially influencing the patients' level of activity.
