There are about 1447 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Croatia. 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 will monitor changes induced by orthodontic treatment and in the retention period, two years after the end of orthodontic treatment. The alignment of teeth, hygiene and gingiva will be assessed. Efficiency of two types of fixed appliances in active phase will be compared - esthetic and metal. Efficiency of two types of retention appliances in retention phase will be compared - fixed and removable. The benefits of orthodontic treatment to be studied are aesthetic concerns, dental self-confidence, self-esteem, social contacts, psychological influences, and chewing limitation. The stability of personality traits, body image and perfectionism will also be analyzed, as well as the extent to which these dimensions modify the reporting of psychosocial effects of malocclusion treatment.
Single center, open label randomized clinical trial. Study location: tertiary hospital center (University Hospital Split, Croatia). All COVID-19 patients with positive PCR test admitted to ICU and in need for respiratory support will be eligible for inclusion in this study. Patients admitted to ICU with severe COVID-19 disease and in need for invasive or non-invasive respiratory support with low levels of vitamin D (<50 nmol/l) measured on admission. All patients are older than 18 years and have confirmed COVID-19 disease with PCR test. Intervention: All patients included in this study will receive standard of care. Patients randomized into intervention group will be receiving 10 000 IU of cholecalciferol daily. Supplement will be administered orally or via gastric tube during ICU stay or for at least 14 days in case of ICU discharge before day 14. Supplementation will begin within 48 hours of admission to ICU. Supplement will be prepared and administered by experienced nursing staff. For patients receiving supplementation, vitamin D levels will be checked on days 7 and 14. In case that vitamin D levels are > 150 nmol/l or if the calcium levels are consistently > 2.6 mmol/l, further supplementation will be stopped. Outcomes: Primary outcome is number of days spent on ventilator. Secondary outcomes: all-cause mortality on day 28, all-cause mortality on day 60, mortality at hospital discharge, clinical improvement at day 28 (WHO clinical progression scale), days spent in ICU, days spent in hospital after discharge from ICU, need for dialysis at day 28, bacterial superinfections, neutrophile to lymphocyte ratio, disease severity (CRP levels, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, D-dimer levels, fibrinogen, ferritin, PCT), adverse outcomes. Hypothesis: patients receiving Vitamin D supplementation will have shorter number of days spent on mechanical ventilation.
This study is open to adults with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases (PF-ILDs). People who have a form of PF-ILD other than Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) can join the study. If they already take nintedanib, they can continue treatment throughout the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 helps people with PF-ILD. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of BI 1015550 as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 1015550 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for up to two and a half years. During the first year, they visit the study site 10 times. Afterwards, they visit the study site every 3 months. The doctors regularly test participants' lung function. The results of the lung function tests are compared between the groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is open to adults with a lung disease called Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). People can join the study if they are 40 years or older. If they already take nintedanib or pirfenidone for their IPF, they can continue treatment throughout the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 helps people with IPF. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of BI 1015550 as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo tablets twice a day.

This is a Phase IIIb, single-arm, multicenter, OLE study. Participants receiving ocrelizumab as an investigational medicinal product (IMP) in a Roche sponsored Parent study who continue to receive ocrelizumab or are in safety follow-up at the time of the closure of their respective Parent study (WA21092, WA21093 or WA25046) are eligible for enrollment in this extension study. Participants who will continue ocrelizumab treatment will receive IMP based on the dosage and administration received at the time of rollover from the Parent study.
ARGX-113-2009 is an operationally seamless 2-part, phase 2/3, prospective, global, multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, participant-reported outcome measures (including those assessing participant QoL), PK, and PD of efgartigimod PH20 SC administered via subcutaneous (SC) injection in adult participants with moderate to severe BP. This study intends to demonstrate that efgartigimod is an effective and safe treatment for BP, providing participants with control of disease activity (CDA) and eventually remission while reducing their cumulative exposure to OCS. study will consist of 2 parts: - Part A of the study is a phase 2 evaluation that intends to provide proof of concept for the therapeutic activity of efgartigimod PH20 SC in participants with BP. - Part B of the study is a phase 3 evaluation that intends to confirm the results obtained from part A in a separate, larger group of participants with BP. An interim analysis will be performed during part A (on data obtained through week 26 for all Part A participants) to assess the primary endpoint and several secondary endpoints, confirm the appropriate sample size for part B of the study, and determine whether the efficacy results observed through week 26 of part A warrant continued study of efgartigimod PH20 SC for the treatment of participants with BP (futility analysis). Other than differences in main goals, endpoints, and statistical analyses, parts A and B are identical in schedule, structure, assessments, and conduct.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study in participants with Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled despite maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab in participants with Crohn's disease.
Aim of this project is to understand clinical features, clinical outcomes and efficacy and safety profiles of different therapies by analyzing a cohort of COVID-19 patients hospitalized and treated in a tertiary-level institution, University hospital Dubrava. Patients' clinical and laboratory characteristics, drug exposure and outcomes are obtained by analysis of written and electronical medical records.
This is a phase III randomized open label study designed to compare JDQ443 as monotherapy to docetaxel in participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring a KRAS G12C mutation who have been previously treated with a platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy either in sequence or in combination.
