There are about 2333 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Ireland. 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 being done to test the safety of a cancer drug called larotrectinib in children. The cancer must have a change in a particular gene (NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3). Larotrectinib blocks the actions of these NTRK genes in cancer cells and can therefore be used to treat cancer. The first study part (Phase 1) is done to determine what dose level of larotrectinib is safe for children, how the drug is absorbed and changed by their bodies and how well the cancer responds to the drug. The main purpose of the second study part (Phase 2) is to investigate how well and how long different cancer types respond to the treatment with larotrectininb.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of Nivolumab compared to placebo in participants who have undergone radical surgery for invasive urothelial cancer.
The purpose of this study was to assess efficacy, including inhibition of radiographic progression, and safety with upadacitinib versus placebo and versus an active comparator, adalimumab, in adults with with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable background of methotrexate (MTX and who have an inadequate response to MTX.
The study will investigate, primarily, the safety, feasibility and tolerability and, secondarily, the preliminary efficacy of an allogeneic bone marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cell (MSC) therapy (ORBCEL-M) in study subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and progressive diabetic kidney disease (DKD).
This research study is done to test how well different types of cancer respond to the drug called larotrectinib. The cancer must have a change in a particular gene (NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3). Larotrectinib is a drug that blocks the actions of these NTRK genes in cancer cells and can therefore be used to treat cancer.
The primary objective of the planned Nutrition Research Cohort (NRC) n250 study is to develop and evaluate the open access Nutrition Researcher Cohort for gathering personal health data from nutrition researchers, including analytical methods, standards and operation procedures, data infrastructure, ethical and privacy aspects, and governance. Besides, the study aims to exploit and analyse data on food, nutrient and bioactive compound intake and exposure, biomarkers for food, health and/or disease and health and/or disease related measurements to study the relation between nutrition, health and development of disease (on individual level). In addition, data will be used to develop applications that visualise personal health risks based for example on (validated) recommendations and applications that predict individual health risks. The study is designed as an open, one-group, exploratory cohort study. The total NRC cohort will be composed of about 250 life sciences employees and students from different, predominantly European, countries. This allows optimal involvement of participants in shaping all aspects of the cohort and the ownership of data. We aim to recruit about in total 20 male and female scientists per participating country.
This is a prospective, two arm, international, multicenter, randomized, open-label Phase III study evaluating the addition of 2 years of palbociclib to standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with HR+ / HER2- early breast cancer (EBC). The purpose of the PALLAS study is to determine whether the addition of palbociclib to adjuvant endocrine therapy will improve outcomes over endocrine therapy alone for HR+/HER2- early breast cancer. Assessment of a variety of correlative analysis, including evaluation of the effect of palbociclib in genomically defined tumor subgroups, is planned.
This randomized phase III trial studies how well pembrolizumab works compared with the current standard of care, physician/patient choice of either high-dose recombinant interferon alfa-2B or ipilimumab, in treating patients with stage III-IV melanoma that has been removed by surgery but is likely to come back or spread. High-dose recombinant interferon alfa-2B may help shrink or slow the growth of melanoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab and pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether pembrolizumab is more effective than the current standard of care in treating patients with melanoma.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SRP-4045 (casimersen) and SRP-4053 (golodirsen) compared to placebo in participants with DMD with out-of-frame deletion mutations amenable to skipping exon 45 and exon 53, respectively.
The purpose of this study is to show that Nivolumab, or Nivolumab plus Ipilimumab, or Nivolumab plus Platinum-Doublet Chemotherapy improves progression free survival and/or overall survival compared with chemotherapy in patients with advanced lung cancer.
