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 clinical trial is to test whether lyophilized fecal microbime transfer - a dried extract of bacteria from the stool of healthy donors - is better than antibiotic therapy only for treating primary clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) in adult participants. The main question it aims to answer is whether lyophilized fecal microbiome transfer lowers the number of episodes of CDI compared to antibiotic therapy. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups: - In the intervention group participants will be given vancomycin by mouth for five days followed by 5 days of capsules of lyophilized fecal microbiome to swallow, up until day 10. - In the control group participants will be given vancomycin by mouth for ten days. - All participants will be asked to arrive for two follow-up visits and to fill out questionnaires. In addition, all participants will be asked to give stool samples before antibiotic therapy and on the two follow-up visits. Researchers will compare the intervention group and the control group to see if there is a difference in symptoms degree after ten days and in recurrence of the infection after two months. They will also compare side effects, the total use of antibiotics and the change in the composition of bacteria in the stool, namely the presence of bacteria that are resistant to many drugs.
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy is increasingly used for hypoxemic respiratory failure and is proving useful in avoiding or delaying intubation and mechanical ventilation. However, basic information regarding the physiologic effects of this method is missing. In this study, the effects of oxygen delivery by HFNC on oxygenation, ventilation and cardiovascular vital signs in patients with mild hypoxemic respiratory failure were evaluated.
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. A number of treatments are available for adults with migraine but there are limited approved treatments available for participants less than 18 years of age. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of atogepant in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17 with episodic migraine. Atogepant is a medicine currently approved to treat adults with episodic migraine (0 to 14 migraine days per month) and is being studied in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17 with a history of episodic migraine. This is a Phase 3, open-label study of atogepant in participants with a history of episodic migraine. Participants must have completed participation in another study of atogepant (lead-in study) or completed the screening period of that study. Participants must have 4 to 14 migraine days and less than 15 headache days in the 4-week screening electronic diary (eDiary; similar to a smart phone). Around 250 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 100 sites worldwide. Atogepant is a tablet taken once a day by mouth. Participants between the ages of 12 and 17 will receive high dose atogepant for 52 Weeks. Participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will receive an atogepant dose determined in the lead-in study for 52 Weeks. There may be a bigger responsibility for participants in this study. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effects of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
This is a randomized, active-controlled, double-blind clinical study designed to evaluate the antiretroviral activity, safety, and tolerability of doravirine/islatravir (DOR/ISL [MK-8591A]) in treatment-naïve participants with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. It is hypothesized that DOR/ISL is non-inferior to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) as assessed by the percentage of participants with HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) <50 copies/mL at Week 48.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy of plitidepsin in pre-specified groups of immunocompromised patients with symptomatic COVID-19 requiring hospital care versus control in terms of mortality.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending intravenous (IV) (Part 1) and subcutaneous (SC) (Part 2) doses of RO7121932 and multiple ascending SC (Part 3) doses of RO7121932 in participants with multiple sclerosis (MS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether milvexian compared to placebo reduce the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.
A pilot non-randomized controlled study examined whether the use of VR technology can serve as an appropriate substitute for sedation in a colonoscopy examination.
The study objective is to evaluate whether a novel telemedicine-based intensive treatment program for children with obesity is superior to standard on-site care. This will be a randomized, non-blinded (due to the nature of the intervention) study, where 100 children and adolescents aged 10-18 years with obesity will be divided in a 1:1 ratio to either telemedicine or on-site treatments for 6 months. The telemedicine arm will include 30, mostly video, consultations for each participant: 3 physician appointments, 7 exercise consultations by our exercise physiologist, 10 dietary consultations by our pediatric dietitian, and 10 psychologist consultations to assist with goal setting and overall well-being. Three visits will be conducted in-office, for physician assessment, smartphone technical assistance and physical measurements (baseline, at 3 months and at the end of the 6-month period). Participants randomized to the telemedicine arm will have a step-counting rewarding app installed on their smartphone by our staff. The in-office arm will have 6 monthly visits during the study period, with two consultations performed in each visit - one by the physician or exercise physiologist, and one by our pediatric dietitian. The main outcome of the study is BMI standard deviation (z-score) changes, which will be evaluated after 3 and 6 months of treatment during physical office visits in both study arms. Secondary outcomes will be: - Body-fat percent changes, assessed by bioimpedance analysis in physical clinic visits. - Daily step counts, measured by smartphone data/ wearable activity tracker, if available. - Weight-related quality of life - Retention and visit cancellation rates. - Satisfaction of both parent and child from their allocated treatment.
The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of a short, smartphone-based mindfulness application on stress, wellbeing and burnout among hospital physicians
