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 protocol describes a randomized multicenter clinical trial designed to test the hypothesis that a 12-week program of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) yields larger beneficial effects in stable heart failure patients than current practice, defined as either a similar training program with the same volume of moderate continuous training (MCT) or a recommendation of regular exercise at moderate intensity at individual choice (RRE).
Objectives: - To find out if the chance of developing a serious illness or of getting AIDS is less if patients start taking HIV medicines at a time when their cluster-of-differentiation-4 (CD4)+ cell count is still fairly high, instead of waiting until the CD4+ count is at the level where there is good evidence for starting medicines. - To learn more about how a strategy of starting HIV medicines early might affect other aspects of care, such as the chances of developing other illnesses or resistance to HIV medicines, the frequency of doctor visits, the cost of medical care, and general health and satisfaction.
This study is conducted in Europe. The objective of this observational study is to evaluate the number of serious side effects, when initiating NovoMix® treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes who previously used a human premix insulin under normal clinical practice
This open-label, single arm study will investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of tocilizumab monotherapy, or combination therapy with non-biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), in patients with severe active RA. Patients will receive tocilizumab 8mg/kg iv as a 60 minute infusion every 4 weeks for a total of 6 infusions. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is >500 individuals.
This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of this observational study is to investigate the switch from metformin alone to metformin combined with repaglinide in type 2 diabetic patients not achieving adequate glycaemic control on maximal dose of metformin given alone and to analyse different epidemiological parameters.
Demonstrate that the use of benchmarking improves quality of patient care, in particular the control of diabetes, lipids and blood pressure, by determining the percentage of patients in the benchmarking group achieving pre-set targets for HbA1c 14,18, LDL-cholesterol16,18 and Systolic Blood Pressure17,18 versus control group (non-benchmarking group) after 12 months of follow-up.
This study is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, Japan and South America. The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the incidence of serious adverse reactions (SARs) while using Levemir® (insulin detemir) under normal clinical practice conditions. Study conducted globally in 26 countries. Some countries participated in the study for only 3 months (Austria, Brazil, Denmark, Germany, Israel, Lebanon, Slovenia, Russia, and Turkey), while others extended their participation to 6 (Belgium/Luxembourg, Czech Republic, Greece, India, Italy, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Tunisia, and United Kingdom/Ireland) and 12 months (Finland, France, and Japan), respectively.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether the patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus in sub-optimal glycemic control can achieve better glycemic control by using the Medtronic MiniMed Paradigm® REAL-Time Pump System with continuous glucose monitoring versus the Medtronic MiniMed Paradigm® REAL-Time Pump alone with Self Monitoring Blood Glucose (SMBG).Our null hypothesis is there is a 0% reduction in HbA1c from baseline compared to control group, after 6 months of treatment.
This study will evaluate if extended therapy with oral rivaroxaban can prevent blood clots in the leg and lung that can occur with patients hospitalized for acute medical illness, and compare these results with those of the standard enoxaparin dose and duration regimen. The safety of rivaroxaban will also be studied.
This 2 arm study will assess the impact of Bone Marker Feedback (BMF), using blood sampling and communication of the results at 2 months, on adherence to monthly Bonviva (150mg po) in women with post-menopausal osteoporosis. Patients will be randomized into either 1) a group which receives bone marker feedback or 2)a group which does not receive feedback on the results. The study will also assess patient satisfaction with treatment with once monthly Bonviva. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
