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.
Arterial hypertension has been recognized as a major causal factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia. In light of its worldwide increasing prevalence and incidence and the accompanied increase in the risk of stroke, thromboembolic events and mortality, AF has emerged as a global healthcare problem. Early diagnosis of AF, prior to the occurrence of complications is a recognized priority for the prevention of strokes. Once diagnosed, anticoagulant therapy is the cornerstone in the management of the risk of stroke in AF patients. The 2012 ESC Guidelines recommend the use of a risk factor-based approach to stroke risk stratification for AF patients. This study aims towards gaining real-world data on the prevalence of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) among hypertensives in Greece. The rate of ESC guideline-adherent antithrombotic therapy on the basis of stroke and bleeding risk assessments, and factors influencing treatment decision-making will be assessed as well in patients diagnosed with the arrhythmia. Finally, potential differences in the NVAF prevalence in adequately and inadequately controlled hypertensives will be documented.
The study will investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and Pharmacokinetic(PK) of 3 doses of empagliflozin compared with placebo over 26 weeks in 960 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus as adjunctive therapy to insulin
A Phase 3 global study comparing avelumab alone to avelumab plus PLD and to PLD alone to demonstrate that avelumab given alone or in combination with PLD is superior to PLD alone in prolonging Overall Survival in patients with platinum resistant/platinum refractory ovarian cancer.
The purpose of the trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of RPC1063 in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate superiority with regard to Overall Survival (OS) or Progression Free Survival (PFS) of avelumab versus platinum-based doublet, based on an Independent Review Committee assessment, in Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) participants with Programmed death ligand 1+ (PD-L1+) tumors.
To develop a score that can predict early from diagnosis of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) the risk for relapse and of unfavorable outcome. This score can be used in the future to identify patients will benefit from fidaxomicin treatment.
The purpose of the trial was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different doses of QVM149 (QVM149 150/50/80 μg and QVM149 150/50/160 μg via Concept1) over two respective QMF149 doses (QMF149 150/160 μg and QMF149 150/320) μg via Concept1 in poorly controlled asthmatics as determined by pulmonary function testing and effects on asthma control.
This is a prospective, multi-center, superiority study of parallel design. Patients are enrolled if they are older than 18 years old, are scheduled for 5 or 6 Fr diagnostic coronary angiography and the interventional cardiologist is willing to proceed with radial access. Patients are randomized before diagnostic catheterization to receive intravenously either 100IU/Kg or 50 IU/Kg of unfractionated heparin (UFH) in a 1:1 ratio. Patients are discharged usually within 4 to 6 hours after coronary angiography. Radial artery in each patient is evaluated either in-hospital or during a subsequent visit by one physician who is blinded to the actual antithrombotic treatment given. Radial artery is considered occluded if it exhibits ultrasonographically no antegrade flow signal both at baseline and after reevaluation on a second occasion, within 30 days after the index procedure. Initially patent arteries will not be reexamined and are thought to remain permanently patent. The investigators also monitor major bleeding (defined as ≥ 5g/dL decrease in hemoglobin or ≥15% decrease in hematocrit or any life-threatening bleeding (confirmed by MRI or computed tomography) and large local hematomas of the forearm (defined as those extending beyond the forearm).
Phase III randomized clinical trial of lurbinectedin (PM01183)/doxorubicin (DOX) versus cyclophosphamide (CTX), doxorubicin (DOX) and vincristine (VCR) (CAV) or topotecan as treatment in patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) who failed one prior platinum-containing line.
This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of QAW039 and QAW039 450 mg compared to placebo, when added to GINA (Global Initiative for Asthma) steps 4 and 5 standard-of- care (SoC) asthma therapy (GINA 2016) in the following two populations: - patient with inadequately controlled severe asthma and high eosinophil counts (eosinophil count at Visit 1 ≥250 cells/ µl) (sub-population) - patients with inadequately controlled severe asthma (overall study population) Inadequate control is defined as partly controlled or uncontrolled asthma (GINA 2016)
