There are about 13332 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Netherlands. 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.
Development and validation of a model that predicts rENE from radiological imaging using annotated / labeled scans by means of deep learning
The purpose of this 20-week randomized double-blind study in patients with resistant hypertension (rHTN) is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability, of different doses of XXB750 administered as subcutaneous (SC) injections, compared to placebo. Since all study participants will be patients with rHTN, all study treatments will be given on top of maximally tolerated background antihypertensive therapy recommended by international guidelines for treatment of HTN (i.e., a thiazide or a thiazide-like diuretic, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and a long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB).
This study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of single ascending, and fixed repeated doses of N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) in healthy subjects, when given by intravenous (IV) infusion.
This study will investigate the effect of tirzepatide on the reduction of morbidity and mortality in adults living with obesity and provide additional evidence for the potential clinical benefits of tirzepatide in this population.
Epilepsy is a medical condition marked by the occurrence of unpredictable, recurrent seizures. One-third of people with epilepsy continue to experience seizures, despite having attempted multiple forms of anti-seizure medication (ASM). Currently, response to ASM is assessed on a trial-and-error basis as their efficacy can only be determined in hindsight. This causes delays in finding the proper treatment per individual. Responsiveness of the outer brain layer to external stimuli, termed cortical excitability (CE), may be used as additional means of treatment evaluation. In this study, the investigators aim to measure CE before and after starting with ASM, so as to determine whether indicators of CE can be used to predict favorable response to the medication. Participants in this study are adult individuals with uncontrolled seizures that will start with the novel anti-seizure medicine cenobamate. The investigators hypothesize that, after starting with ASM, the CE will decrease in people with epilepsy who show a favorable response to the medication. Conversely, the investigators anticipate that the CE will not decrease in those that do not react to the mediation. The investigators will address this hypothesis by evaluating both brain activity (electroencephalography, EEG) during rest and during different types of stimulation (magnetic, light flashes). Besides, the investigators will measure the subjective experiences of participants by using questionnaires on the quality of life and feelings of anxiety or depression. These measurements are performed at a baseline instance, just before starting with ASM, and at two instances after start with the ASM. Participants in the study will track the occurrence of seizures - using a diary - from 12 weeks before ASM start up till 12 months after ASM start. The investigators will compare seizure frequency with both changes in brain activity and subjective experiences by the participants.
Autonomic dysfunction is common and often underrecognized in Parkinson's disease (PD). Orthostatic hypotension (OH) affects up to a third of PD patients and often coincides with supine hypertension. This co-occurrence complicates pharmacological treatment as treatment of one can negatively affect the other. Head-up tilt sleeping (HUTS) could improve both. This phase II randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of this understudied intervention, leading to optimal implementation strategies.
Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of SLN360 administered subcutaneously (SC) compared with placebo in adult participants with elevated lipoprotein(a) at high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events
This is an observational study in which data from people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) who have already started or will start CKD or T2D treatment are collected and studied. In observational studies, only observations are made without specified advice or interventions. People receiving the following CKD or T2D treatments as recommended by their doctors will be included: - Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), - Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA), - Steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (sMRA), - Finerenone, a non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (nsMRA) - Other nsMRA (only in Japan) Kidneys filter extra water and waste from the blood and make urine. CKD is a long-term, progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to properly filter blood. In people with T2D, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin or does not use insulin well enough, resulting in high blood sugar levels that can cause damage to the kidneys. As a result, CKD can occur as a complication of T2D. The new drug, finerenone, works by blocking certain proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptors. An increased stimulation of these proteins is thought to damage the kidneys. By lowering their stimulation, finerenone reduces the risk of progressive worsening of the kidney disease. Finerenone is available and approved in several countries for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and T2D. The main purpose of the study is to collect and describe characteristics of participants in each treatment group who have started or will start treatment before and after finerenone became available. To do this, the researchers will collect data on: - Patient characteristics (e.g., age sex) of the participants - Clinical characteristics (e.g., history of CKD and T2D, heart and liver health, other health problems) of the participants - Treatments for T2D and CKD - Other medications used Data will be grouped by type of treatment that is initiated (e.g., SGLT2i, a GLP-1 RA, a sMRA, finerenone, or other nsMRA). Two time periods will be compared. Study period I is the time until finerenone became available in the respective country, starting from 2012 (2014 for Japan). Study period II will begin when finerenone becomes available in the respective country and will end at the end of the study (planned in September 2024). Researchers will also collect data on treatment patterns and changes for each type of treatment in both time periods. Health care data will be collected from various sources in five countries (e.g., Denmark, the Netherlands, Spain, Japan, and the US). The patients will receive their treatment as prescribed by their doctors during routine practice according to the approved product information. Each patient will be in the study from first use (in Study period I and II) of one of the listed drug classes until: - End of study - The data are somehow no longer available - The patient leaves or has to leave the study
This phase 2 trial will evaluate the effects of EP547 in subjects with cholestatic pruritus due to Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) or Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC)
The vast majority of patients with distal biliary, pancreatic head or uncinate process cancer have jaundice caused by distal malignant obstruction (DMO) of the common bile duct. Biliary drainage by Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with trans-papillary stent placement is the treatment of choice. ERCP has a failure rate ranging from 12 - 25 percent. Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) is the alternative conventional way to drain the biliary tree after ERCP failure, which is related with substantial morbidity (62%) and mortality (17%). Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) is a novel promising drainage modality with reported excellent outcomes in terms of clinical success and complications. The implementation of EUS-BD besides ERCP and PTBD into Dutch daily clinical practice raises many questions related to performance, costs, QoL, training, implementation and overall oncological treatment success. This structured learning/proctoring program with an additional national registry provides insights into EUS-BD and how to implement EUS-BD in the Dutch standard of care.
