There are about 160 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Luxembourg. 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.
This registry has been designed as a multicenter, single arm, open label, post-market registry study with consecutive, eligible patient enrollment at each site. All subjects undergoing the Endovascular Aneurysm Sealing System (EVAS) with the Nellix®-System. Subjects will be followed up to discharge discharge, and as per institutional standard of care thereafter through to 5 years (total follow-up commitment). This registry of the Nellix System, which has received the market authorization of the European Union (Conformité Européenne, CE-certification) in a "real world" patient population treated in a multicenter setting will provide an assessment of the generalizability of the approach and System. Up to 300 patients diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) who are considered candidates for Endovascular Repair, in up to 30 international centers will be enrolled in the study.
Patients with stenosis in one or more coronary artery are often treated with a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). As part of the PCI treatment a stent is often placed to keep the vessel open over time. The Combo-Stent is a novel stent for use during percutaneous angioplasty. In short, the Combo stent combines a drug eluting technique and an endothelial cell attracting layer. The drug coating is designed to prevent re-narrowing of the stent. The endothelial cell attracting layer is designed to ensure rapid coverage of the stent struts with vascular wall cells. The REMEDEE REGISTRY evaluates the long-term safety and performance of the Combo stent in routine clinical practice. In total 1000 patients will be registered and followed for five years.
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and performance of the Direct Flow Medical study valve and delivery procedure.
Study phase: phase III Study objective: - Comparison of Bortezomib, Melphalan, Prednisone (VMP) with High Dose Melphalan followed autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) - Comparison of Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone(VRD) as consolidation versus no consolidation - Comparison of single versus tandem high dose Melphalan with ASCT Patient population: Patients with symptomatic multiple myeloma,previously untreated, ISS stages 1-3, age 18-65 years inclusive Study design: Prospective, multicenter, intergroup, randomized Duration of treatment: Expected duration of induction, stem cell collection and intensification is 6 - 9 months. Consolidation with VRD will last 2 months Maintenance therapy with Lenalidomide will be given until relapse. All patients will be followed until 10 years after registration.
Lung cancer is responsible for the most deaths due to cancer each year in both men and women worldwide and once diagnosed, the 10 year survival rate is poor (<15%). This poor prognosis is based in large part on the absence of an effective diagnostic test for the disease. The chief objective of this study is to develop a molecular-based diagnostic test specific for lung cancer. Subjects suspected or diagnosed with lung cancers, who are either undergoing thoracentesis, biopsy of a suspicious lesion or surgical resection of their tumor will be asked to participate in this study. Those subjects, who will undergo surgical resection, will donate both lung tumor tissue and adjacent normal lung tissue (potentially including lymph nodes), while non-surgical candidates will donate a portion of their excess biopsy sample, if available, after diagnosis has been confirmed. Subjects undergoing thoracentesis for pleural effusion will donate a portion of their fluid sample, if the fluid volume collected is in excess of that needed for clinical care purposes. Blood samples and optionally saliva will also be collected from all subjects, whether undergoing surgery or not. In addition to biosample collection, detailed annotated demographic and clinical information will be collected from subjects. Subjects will be followed for outcome analysis, specifically for tumor recurrence, every 6 months, during 5 years. In case of change in chemotherapy treatment, biosamples and clinical information will also be collected. Collected biosamples will be analyzed using a series of molecular and proteomic technologies for developing biomarkers of the disease.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine, leucovorin, and fluorouracil in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic cancer of the pancreas or bile duct.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells left after surgery. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining fluorouracil and radiation therapy in treating patients who have undergone surgery for pancreatic cancer.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of two different regimens of docetaxel or paclitaxel in treating women who have unresectable locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
