There are about 9745 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Israel. 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 goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MK-0616 in adult participants with hypercholesterolemia. The primary hypothesis is that MK-0616 is superior to placebo on mean percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) at Week 24.
The goal of this post marketing surveillance clinical trial is to learn about VIOLA as a proximal seal device in patients undergoing coronary artery grafting (CABG) surgery. The main objective is to evaluate the clinical safety and performance of the VIOLA. Participants will be treated with routine CABG with use of VIOLA for maintaining hemostasis when suturing the proximal anastomosis. Patients will be followed for any clinical events at 6 weeks and 9 months post surgery.
Autism spectrum condition (ASC) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized fundamentally by social deficits. Emotional competence - the ability to express, recognize, understand, and regulate emotions - is a key aspect of social communication. Evidence suggests that the developmental trajectories of autistic children differ from that of neuro-typical children regarding their ability to process and recognize emotions from paralinguistic emotional facial, body language, and voice tone cues. They also have difficulty integrating these cues in context and lack in emotional language. Numerous approaches to teaching people with autism how to recognize and understand emotions have been tried, with recent increased interest in computer-based interventions (CBI). However, most of the research focused only on facial expressions, were limited to autistic children with no intellectual disabilities (ID); and showed limited generalization to real social settings. EmotiPlay, a computer-based intervention program, designed to enhance emotion recognition (ER) by addressing multiple modalities of emotional cues (facial expressions, tone of voice, body language), has shown good outcome when used at home by autistic children and no ID . However, the examination of generalization was partial and depended only on parental reports. The present study main goals are to: (1) Examine the adaptation and the integration of EmotiPlay into special education classrooms in regular schools. (2) Assess EmotiPlay's effect on emotional competence among autistic children at different functioning levels.
The study is designed to fill in the gaps in current knowledge by providing a more inclusive and comprehensive understanding of the potential associations between different psychiatric medications, including antipsychotics (APs), Antidepressants, Benzodiazepines and mood stabilizers, and negative outcomes, as previous research has often been limited to data from clinical trials. The primary objectives of the study include assessing the association between different psychiatric medications and long-term major negative medical conditions and events. Additionally, the study aims to assess the association between different psychiatric medications and long-term negative metabolic events such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. This study aims to investigate the potential long-term negative effects of different psychiatric medications on patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, depression, bipolar disorder and dementia, patients with other diagnoses, as well as patients receiving different psychiatric medications who do not have a psychiatric diagnosis. The study will be done using data from the Clalit Health Services (CHS) database, which is the largest provider of health insurance in Israel, serving approximately 55% of the population. This database provides access to all diagnoses and blood tests for the duration of the study, which allows for accurate tracking of patient outcomes over time. Inclusion criteria include being diagnosed with schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder/bipolar disorder/depression, dementia, other psychiatric diagnoses, and/or patients receiving these medications who do not have a psychiatric diagnosis, and use psychiatric medications, including antipsychotics/antidepressants/mood stabilizers/benzodiazepines as registered in the Clalit database. having first prescription of psychiatric medication between 2001 and 2024. The study will look at those patients included and will follow them using the CHS database to assess these different medical and or metabolic side-effects and the appearance of major negative and major metabolic events, as well as abnormal metabolic measurements.
This study is a substudy being conducted under one pembrolizumab umbrella master study KEYMAKER-U04. The substudy will consist of 2 parts. Part 1 will evaluate the efficacy and safety of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab plus EV and coformulated vibostolimab/pembrolizumab plus EV relative to pembrolizumab plus EV. There will be no comparison of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab plus EV versus coformulated vibostolimab/pembrolizumab plus EV. If ORR and/or DRR are substantially better on coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab plus EV and/or coformulated vibostolimab/pembrolizumab plus EV compared with pembrolizumab plus EV, after evaluation of the totality of data, the sponsor might consider Part 2 (expansion) to further characterize the efficacy and safety of the treatment arms under study.
Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with a high risk for driving accidents. Adolescents with ADHD are 1.2 to 4 times more prone to be involved in car accidents. Driving accidents are the leading cause of death among adolescents. Objective: Examining a multidimensional applied intervention based on serious gaming principles to improve the driving capabilities and skills of adolescents with ADHD Methodology: The study will include 90 adolescents (aged 15-18 years old) with ADHD diagnosis who did not yet start driving lessons. Participants will undergo a stratified randomized clinical trial, single-blinded. The stratified randomization process will include gender, age, and medication status. There exist three different intervention modalities: (1) A personalized cognitive-functional intervention- 'Drive-Fun' (group1) (2) educational intervention (group2); and (3) no intervention (group3). Meetings will entail 11 once-a-week sessions. Participants will be evaluated before intervention (baseline), after the intervention, and at a 6-month follow-up. Evaluations will include simulated driving skills, meta-cognitive abilities, eye tracking, and brain activity (EEG) measures. The evaluation and the intervention will be conducted by two certified occupational therapists. Participants and the therapist performing the evaluations will be blinded to group type and intervention. The potential scientific contribution of the proposed research: Given the great risks of injury to adolescents with ADHD and other road users, it is important to identify dangerous driving behaviors as well as develop methods that can lead to better driving skills and a safer driving experience. It is anticipated that evidence will be presented by the evaluation battery that the personalized intervention program developed will significantly improve potential driving skills on the simulator and hopefully also actual driving.
The goal of this observational study is to test and describe the frequency of hepatitis B virus reactivation in patients who received anti-CD20 drugs for a wide variety of autoimmune and hemato-oncological diseases in order to find out whether a group of patients from a certain field was more sensitive to treatment in this respect than patients from other fields.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DOR/ISL in adult participants with HIV-1 who had been previously treated with DOR/ISL in earlier clinical studies. There are no formal hypotheses to be tested in this study.
