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 study is an extension of two parent studies (MLN0002-3024 [NCT04779307] and MLN0002-3025 [NCT04779320]). Participants must have participated in one of the previous studies. The purpose of this study is to collect the long-term safety of vedolizumab in children with UC or CD.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral masitinib versus placebo in the treatment of patients with primary progressive or secondary progressive multiple sclerosis without relapse.
Severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA) is associated with poor disease control and compromised health-related quality of life (HRQoL), leading to a substantial psychosocial and economic disease burden. Benralizumab (Fasenra®), an interleukin (IL)-5-alpha receptor monoclonal antibody, is approved as an add-on maintenance treatment for SEA. This study aims at collecting real-world data that extend beyond the clinical effectiveness of benralizumab to the participant-reported impact of treatment on their HRQoL, sleep quality, depression, anxiety, work productivity and activity impairment, but also on treatment effectiveness. Recent technological advances in portable spirometers and wearable activity trackers (WAT) to increase physical activity for participants with asthma, even for older participants, allow this study to collect data on lung function parameters and physical activity from such devices for the first time at a country level in Greece. Using a multi-aspect approach, this study will generate real-world evidence on a broad range of both well-established clinical and novel patient-centered outcomes which are critical to the assessment of the therapeutic benefit both from the physician's and the participant's perspective. All main study outcomes will be examined at various timepoints throughout the course of the 48-week observation period, starting as early as 4 weeks after treatment initiation, thus enabling the identification of 'early' treatment responders with a closer focus on patients' physical and psychological well-being and HRQoL in addition to asthma control and lung function metrics
The ERSHAM (Effect of Renal Denervation on Stress, Hypertension and Anxiety Management) is a single-center, interventional, open-label, randomized controlled trial that will be conducted at the Hypertension Unit "ESH Excellence Center'', 1st Cardiology Department of the Medical School of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens at the General Hospital of Athens "Hippokration", which is the reference center for uncontrolled hypertension and for sympathetic renal denervation (RDN) in our region. Sixty (60) consecutive patients aged 30-70 years with uncontrolled arterial hypertension either under anti-hypertensive treatment with 1 drug [at least 50% of maximum manufacturer's recommended dosage of an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/ angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) or a calcium channel blocker (CCB)] or naïve from antihypertensive treatment and HADS (Hospital anxiety and depression scale) anxiety subscore ≥ 8 will be enrolled (Figure 1). Patients will be randomized in a 1: 1 ratio to endovascular ultrasound RDN (Paradise renal denervation system, ReCor, CA, USA) (RDN) (n= 30) or to control group (n= 30). Baseline clinical data, cardiovascular risk factors, medical history as well as medication will be recorded in each group. After the randomization, patients who will be randomized to RDN group will undergo a computed tomography angiography (CTA) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) of the renal arteries in order to assess whether the renal arteries' anatomy is suitable for RDN by using the Paradise system. The images of the CTA/MRA will be uploaded onto BIOCLINICA web-based portal in order to optimize device use (RDN catheter) and location of ablations. Patients will not change their antihypertensive medications during the 3 months follow -up. After that, their management will be evaluated based on the current 2018 ESC/ESH guidelines. Possible RDN-related adverse events will be recorded during the follow-up period. Blood pressure (BP) will be measured by office BP measurements as well as 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Anxiety and depression will be evaluated by the self-assessment hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). Stress management will be evaluated via Perceived Stress Scale-14 (PSS-14). To assess the quality of life (QoL) the health status questionnaire (SF-12) will be used. The social readjustment rating scale will be used in order to evaluate the probability of developing a stress-related disorder during the follow-up period. Finally, a questionnaire for personal stress due to high blood pressure will be applied at the baseline and at the end of the follow-up period. Patients will be followed-up for 6 months after the randomization. A total of three (3) follow-up visits for each patient will be scheduled during the 6-month follow-up period of the study [1st (adverse events review), 3rd, and 6th month after the randomization). If there is a failure in reaching the office BP <140/90mmHg at the 3rd and 6th month, the antihypertensive therapy will be reevaluated according to the current ESH/ESC Guidelines. All patients will give written informed consent and the study will be organized according to ethical considerations, as described in the Declaration of Helsinki for human medical studies, and the protocol will be approved by the institutional medical ethics committee.
The purpose of this study is to provide ongoing access to study treatments for participants with multiple myeloma or smoldering multiple myeloma benefiting from treatment in certain Janssen Research and Development (R&D) studies that use daratumumab as part of the study treatment regimen: access for all participants regardless of treatment group in daratumumab studies and access to participants in daratumumab-containing arms in the non-daratumumab studies will be allowed from studies which have reached clinical cutoff for final analysis. Certain long-term safety data will continue to be collected from study participants.
Preferred pharmacological management for COPD according to the GOLD guidelines are the long-acting anticholinergic LAMAs (Long-Acting / Short-Acting Muscarinic Antagonists), and long-acting β 2-Agonists LABA (Long-acting LABA) / β2-Long Action Fighters) as well as inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) Other drugs that can be used besides long-acting, are short-acting anticholinergics (SAMA) and β2-agonists (SABA), methylxanthines (Aminophylline and Theophylline), mucolytics and phosphodiesterase inhibitors 4 (Phosphorus) of which is roflumilast
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics of two dose levels of RO7247669 in participants with unresectable or metastatic melanoma to select the recommended dose for further development.
Primary objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the measurements of two different optical biometrics systems in patients who will undergo cataract surgery or presbyopia surgery using intraocular lenses (IOL-PC).
Follicular Lymphoma (FL) is the second most common B-cell cancer and the most common type of cancer of lymphocytes. Unfortunately, this disease is incurable with conventional treatment and the disease recurs in almost all patients. This study will assess how safe and effective epcoritamab is in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab (R2) in treating adult participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) FL. Adverse events and change in disease condition will be assessed. Epcoritamab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of FL. Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 3 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. Enrollment to one of the groups is closed. Around 500 adult participants with R/R FL will be enrolled in approximately 300 sites across the world. Participants will receive R2 (375 mg/m^2 intravenous infusion of rituximab up to 5 cycles and oral capsules of 20 mg lenalidomide for up to 12 cycles) alone or in combination with subcutaneous injections of epcoritamab for up to 12 cycles (each cycle is 28 days). There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. 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.
This study examines how well a new, potential medicine called NDec works and is tolerated in people with sickle cell disease. NDec is a combination of two medicines (decitabine-tetrahydrouridine). Both medicines are new for the treatment of sickle cell disease. Participants who are not taking Hydroxyurea (HU) will get NDec, NDec and placebo, or placebo. Participants who are on HU treatment before joining the study will get NDec, NDec and placebo, or continue on HU. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants getting NDec and/or Placebo will get capsules to take twice weekly. The study will last for about a year.
