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.
Physicians know that their patients can react differently to the same medical treatment: for some of them, the drug will prove inefficient, whereas for others it might provoke side-effects, sometimes rather serious. Such differences in response to drug intake are due to several factors, of which molecular variations in specific genes, named " ADME " (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion). This project aims at investigating the evolutionary mechanisms responsible for the diversity of ADME genes in human populations. Because of their role at the interface between the organism and its chemical environment, ADME genes are likely targets of recent selective pressures linked to changes in the environments in which humans evolved, such as changes in dietary habits for instance. The aim of this project is to study the diversity of ADME genes and of their expression in five populations located along a latitudinal axis that extends from East Africa to Central Europe, passing through the Arabian Peninsula and the Mediterranean area, so as to take into account environmental factors that might have influenced the evolution of this diversity. This project is thus intended to evidence the evolutionary mechanisms that shaped genomic regions that are functionally important from the clinical and epidemiological point of view. Moreover, it will allow us to extend the knowledge of human molecular diversity and its evolution to a key-region of the peopling history of our species.
The study is designed to compare the effects of BI 425809 compared to placebo in patients with cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's Disease.
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of two regimens of intravenous iron sucrose [continuous (in every hemodialysis session) versus intermittent (every 1-4 weeks)] on the response of rHuEPO in the maintenance phase of its administration in hemodialysis patients.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and device performance of the Edwards Tricuspid Transcatheter Repair System in patients with clinically significant, symptomatic, tricuspid regurgitation who are at high surgical risk for standard tricuspid repair/replacement.
This study will assess the effects of adalimumab treatment in moderate to severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) patients in the real world setting. The objectives of this study are to estimate the effectiveness of adalimumab treatment on disease severity, to estimate the impact of adalimumab treatment on patients' quality of life, psychological effect, work productivity and healthcare resource utilization and to describe treatment practices over the study period.
A 52 week trial of TransCon hGH, a long-acting growth hormone product, versus human growth hormone therapy. TransCon hGH will be given once-a-week, human growth hormone (hGH) will be given daily. Approximately 150 prepubertal, hGH-treatment naïve children (males and females) with GHD will be included. Randomization will occur in a 2:1 ratio (TransCon hGH : Genotropin). This is a global trial that will be conducted in Armenia, Australia, Belarus, Bulgaria, Georgia, Greece, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, and the United States.
To evaluate the safety and performance of the ConfidenHT System
This study is a multicentre, prospective, non-interventional post-authorisation safety study (PASS) of the clinical outcomes for patients with LHON treated with Raxone®. No medication will be provided as part of this study. Raxone® will be obtained through commercial channels.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate efficacy, including effects on inflammation by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessments, of secukinumab on Achilles tendon enthesitis for up to 1 year with a primary focus at Week 24, in patients with active Psoriatic Arthritis and axial Spondyloarthritis despite current or previous non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) and/or disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) and/or anti-TNFα therapy.
The overall purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of three different doses of BI 655064 against placebo as add-on therapy to standard of care (SOC) treatment for active lupus nephritis in order to characterize the dose-response relationship within the therapeutic range, and select the target dose for phase III development.
