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.
Objective: To assess the safety and feasibility of the implementation of the esophageal multisegmented fully covered self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) for the palliation of patients with malignant dysphagia. Study design: Prospective observational nonrandomized clinical study. Study population: A total of 30 patients with malignant dysphagia will be included. Sample size calculation does not apply for this type of study. Intervention: All patients will be treated with the esophageal multisegmented fully covered SEMS. Primary end points: - Safety: complications and adverse events during follow-up with special attention to stent migration rates; - Efficacy: technical success of stent placement. Secondary end points: - Recurrent dysphagia including its cause; - Functional outcome: Ogilvie dysphagia score and WHO performance score (measured at baseline, 2 weeks and every 4 weeks until death/stent removal, or until a maximum of 6 months follow-up); - Tissue ingrowth or overgrowth (measured endoscopically every endoscopic evaluation during follow-up); - Pain related to esophageal stent.
Clinical phase 3 study to investigate the effect of recAP on 28 day mortality in patients admitted to the ICU with acute kidney injury that is caused by sepsis. The study has three distinct SA-AKI trial populations: 1. The main trial population: Patients with a pre-AKI reference eGFR ≥45 mL/min/1.73 m2 and no proven or suspected SARS-CoV-2 at time of randomization. 2. A 'moderate' CKD population: Patients with a pre-AKI reference eGFR ≥25 and <45 mL/min/1.73 m2 and no proven or suspected SARS-CoV-2 at time of randomization. 3. A Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) population: Patients with proven or suspected SARS-CoV-2 at time of randomization with or without 'moderate' CKD. For patients in this population, COVID-19 should be the main cause of SA-AKI. In the main study population approximately 1400 patients will be enrolled and in the two cohorts with moderate CKD and COVID-19 each up to 100 patients. There are two arms in the study, one with active treatment and one with an inactive compound (placebo). Treatment is by 1 hour intravenous infusion, for three days. Patients are followed up for 28 days to see if there is an improvement on mortality, and followed for 90 and 180 days for mortality and other outcomes e.g. long-term kidney function and quality of life.
A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of IMR-687 in Subjects with Beta Thalassemia
The main purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of bempegaldesleukin plus nivolumab versus nivolumab in patients with completely resected Stage IIIA/B/C/D, or Stage IV cutaneous melanoma who are at high risk for recurrence.
Rationale: The study hypothesizes that NKI followed by endoscopic bougie dilation therapy will result in an increased dysphagia-free period, a reduction of endoscopic procedures and dysphagia-related quality of life, and lower costs, when compared with the standard endoscopic bougie dilation (EBD) in recurrent esophagogastric anastomotic strictures. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of needle-knife incision (NKI) followed by EBD compared to standard EBD in patients with recurrent esophagogastric anastomotic strictures. Study design: This multicenter study is an randomized controlled trial in which NKI followed by EBD will be compared with standard EBD. Study population: Patients with recurrent dysphagia (at least 1 and a maximum of 5 previous dilations) due to an anastomotic esophagogastric stricture that requires treatment with repeated endoscopic bougie dilations. Intervention : The intervention to be investigated is the addition of NKI therapy to EBD to 18 mm esophageal diameter. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome of this study will be EBD-free time during follow-up of 6 months. Secondary outcome parameters will be the number of endoscopic procedures for treatment of dysphagia, quality of life (QoL), cost-reduction and cost-effectiveness.
Clinical study to investigate the safety and the efficacy of the URECA CTO Device during recanalization and mechanical re-entry into the true lumen after passing the occlusions/calcifications (chronic total occlusions) in the peripheral vasculature.
To evaluate the long-term safety and performance of the HARPOON™ MVRS for use in patients presenting with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation due to posterior leaflet prolapse in the post-market phase.
This is an open-label, multicenter, rollover study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of long-term administration of open-label gantenerumab in participants with AD who completed Study WN29922 or WN39658, either the double-blind or open-label extension (OLE) part.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pamrevlumab versus placebo in combination with systemic corticosteroids in participants with non-ambulatory Duchenne muscular dystrophy (age 12 years and older).
Rationale: Currently there are no approved treatments for COVID-19. In the Dutch treatment protocol guideline (SWAB) designated treatment is supportive care with the option to add chloroquine base (CQ) or hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). CQ and HCQ are implemented because of their in vitro activity, results from small animal studies, and anecdotal patient's data. There are no published randomized studies with these medications in patients with disease caused by any coronavirus. Objective: To evaluate if treatment with only supportive care or addition of one of two anti-COVID_19 agents (chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine) results in less disease progression in patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 who require hospital admission. Study design: Multicentre, cluster randomized cross-over, open label trial. Hospitals will be randomly allocated to one of 3 treatment arms in sequential periods of one week: chloroquine base versus hydroxychloroquine versus supportive care without any drug presumed active against SARS-COV-2. Patients will be treated based on the date of inclusion. Study population: Adults aged of 18 years and older with moderate to severe, with a NEWS-2 score ≤ 5, laboratory confirmed COVID-19, who require hospital admission in a ward outside the Medium Care or Intensive Care. Intervention (if applicable): Depending on the treatment arm, the study subject will receive only supportive care or an addition with one of the two agents active against SARS-CoV-2 (chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine). Main study parameters/endpoints: Disease progression defined as a NEWS-2 score ≥ 7 within 14 days, or admission to Medium Care or Intensive Care Unit, or death.
