There are about 4372 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Greece. 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 purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of pregabalin or pregabalin and continuous wound infusion versus placebo for analgesia following thoracotomy
Assessment of oral and dental problems is seldom routine in clinical oncology, despite the potential negative impact of these problems on nutritional status, social function and quality of life (QoL). A brief, assessment tool for oral/dental health and related QoL-issues to improve symptom management has been requested. The present study will be conducted on behalf of and with support from the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - (EORTC) Quality of Life Group (QLG). The study represents phase IV, the final step, in the development of an international, symptom specific questionnaire module, focusing on oral and dental problems in relation to cancer and its treatment. Phase I-III of this stepwise development process was conducted from 2008 to 2011, as an international collaboration and conducted according to the guidelines for module development set forth by the EORTC QLG. The resulting module, the QLQ-OH17, is now subject to an international field testing and validation study as described in this project description. The present version of the QLQ-OH17 consists of 17 items conceptualized into four multi-item scales (pain/discomfort, xerostomia, eating and information) and three single items related to use of dentures and future worries. The aim of the present study is to conduct phase IV; an international field study to confirm the psychometric properties of the QLQ-OH17
The EORTC GastroIntestinal Tract Cancer Group and the EORTC HeadQuarters wish to set up a European screening platform for advanced colo-rectal cancer (CRC) patients. The goal of this screening platform is to provide quick access to new drugs to patients by offering a new structure for clinical trials. Currently some of the most challenging clinical questions arise from the molecular sub-division of CRC that would theoretically allow to inhibit the specific, altered pathways in the patients. A major problem for trials in this "personalized medicine" is that the low frequency of the different mutations requires a high effort for screening and identifying the patients. The EORTC CRC screening platform will hopefully offer a feasible and efficient way to characterize the patients on the molecular basis of their tumors and allow to offer them rapid and preferential participation in clinical studies with new drugs targeted to their specific pathway alterations.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether electroacupuncture is a effective tool to the postoperative analgesia
To investigate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous volasertib + subcutaneous low dose cytarabine in patients >= 65 years of age with previously untreated acute myeloid leukaemia, ineligible for intensive remission induction therapy
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical benefit, as measured by overall survival, of nivolumab with that of. dacarbazine in patients with previously untreated, unresectable, or metastatic melanoma
The purpose of the current study is to investigate whether changes in patients' sleep quality and quantity will be followed by improvements in parameters related to physical and mental fatigue in patients receiving hemodialysis therapy. More specific, the current project will investigate the effect of a 9 months intradialytic exercise training in aspects related to fatigue, quality of life and depression.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether baricitinib 4 milligram (mg) once daily is superior to placebo in the treatment of participants with moderately to severely active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) who have had an inadequate response to a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor, despite ongoing treatment with conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (cDMARDs).
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of L. reuteri DSM 17938 on pain frequency and severity in children of 5-16 years old and with diagnosis of FAP.
This open-label, randomized, adaptive, 2-arm, multicenter study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) in immunocompromised children, less than (<) 13 years of age, with confirmed influenza infection. Participants will be randomized to receive either the standard dose or triple dose of oseltamivir orally daily for a minimum of 5 days and up to 20 days. Infants <1 year of age will be randomized to the standard dose arm only.
