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.
This study is open to adults aged 18 years and older who have pulmonary fibrosis with or without a known cause (or other forms of pulmonary fibrosis). The purpose of this study is to better understand coughing in people with pulmonary fibrosis. To do this, a wearable cough monitor called Strados Remote Electronic Stethoscope Platform (RESP) is used. This device will measure how often and how forceful coughing is in people with pulmonary fibrosis. All participants in the study get the device. It is placed on their skin over the chest. Participants are in the study for 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site 2 to 3 times. 4 visits are done at the participant's home by video call with the site staff. During the study, the device measures coughing over 24 hours. This is done on 4 days. Participants fill in questionnaires about their coughing and doctors regularly check participant's lung function. A breathing test that measures how well the lungs are working is performed both in the office and during home visits. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. This study will also record patients' experiences using the cough monitor and video assisted breathing tests at visits 3, 4, 5 and 6 at home.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ascending single doses of QRL-101 in male and female healthy participants. The findings from this study will be used to inform the development of QRL-101 for people living with ALS.
The objective of this study is to determine the independent and additive effects of food texture and energy density on food and energy intake compared to a control condition.
The primary objective is to gather missing information in order to form a well-founded recommendation on which is the preferred skin pigmentation measurement (PPM) methods in the context of pulse-oximetry.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether patient records with complete, structured and up-to-date problem lists ('accurate problem lists'), result in better clinical decision-making, compared to patient records that convey the same information in a less structured way where the problem list has missing and/or duplicate diagnoses ('inaccurate problem lists'). The secondary objective is to determine whether the time required to make a correct decision is less for patient records with accurate problem lists compared to patient records with inaccurate problem lists.
Smoking tobacco is an important preventable risk factor for chronic illnesses and premature death and is most prevalent among groups with a lower socio-economic position (SEP). High relapse rates show that smoking cessation interventions are often not sufficiently effective on the long-term. Potential reasons for this limited effectiveness are that these interventions are not tailored to lower-SEP smokers and do not provide sufficient support in situations when the (re)lapse risk is high; that is, high-risk situations (HRSs). A mobile phone application using an automated conversational agent could be a useful approach to promote long-term smoking cessation, as it can be tailored to lower-SEP smokers and provide support at any time of the day (also in HRSs). However, evidence on the effectiveness of this kind of applications is scarce and it is still unclear how automated conversational agents can effectively promote lapse prevention. Therefore, it is important to explore what type of lapse prevention strategies these conversational agents should use in HRSs and how these different types of support are experienced by smokers. This virtual reality (VR) experiment will examine the preliminary effectiveness and usability of a conversational agent that supports smokers in personal HRSs. More specifically, the investigators primarily aim to examine whether the three different lapse prevention dialogs increase abstinence self-efficacy in adult smokers from different SEP groups during simulated HRSs, compared to a neutral dialog (i.e., control condition). In addition, the investigators examine the effect of the lapse prevention dialogs, compared to the neutral dialog, in simulated HRSs on subjective craving and affect. Finally, the investigators examine how adult smokers from different SEP groups experience the personalized support of a simulated conversational agent in simulated HRSs. VR will be used to expose smokers to their personal HRSs and let them interact with a conversational agent via a simulated mobile phone. Using computer-based VR technology, three-dimensional environments can be created based on environments that smokers encounter in their daily lives (e.g., their living room or the train station from where they travel to work). This way, controlled but at the same time natural-looking environments can be used to expose smokers to their personal HRSs and measure their responses in this situation.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about how much PF-07081532 will be taken up and processed by healthy male participants. The study consists of two parts, called study periods. In Period 1, participants will take one dose of PF-07081532 by mouth. In Period 2, participants will take one dose by mouth and one dose as an injection through a vein at the study clinic. In Period 1, participants will stay at the clinic site for up to 21 days. In Period 2, they will stay at the clinic site for 7 days. During their stays, participants will have their blood, urine, and feces collected by the study doctors several times. We will measure the level of PF-07081532 in participants' blood, urine, and feces samples. This will help us know how much the study medicine is getting taken in by the body. At the end of the study, participants will be contacted by phone to check in. Participants will be involved in this study for about 12 weeks.
Pancreatic cancer is expected to be the second leading cause of cancer-related death in 2020. Pancreatic cancer is known as an immunological cold tumor. It is thought that the characteristic desmoplastic stroma of established pancreatic adenocarcinomas acts as a physical as well as an immunosuppressive barrier leading to exclusion of T cells. The use of CD40 agonists (such as mitazalimab, also known as JNJ-64457107 and ADC-1013) may convert pancreatic adenocarcinomas into immunological hot tumors by T-cell-dependent and T-cell-independent mechanisms. Targeting the desmoplastic stroma, thereby making the tumor more permeable for T-cell infiltration, is seen as one of the assisting mechanisms. Furthermore, the immunological coldness of pancreatic cancers infers that tumor-reactive T-cell responses are absent or weak at best. Dendritic cell therapy introduces tumor-specific T cells and in combination with a CD40 agonist, may lead to synergistic anti-tumor responses which could be beneficial for pancreatic cancer patients.
- Background Adaptation of a dental implant and its restoration to the existing anatomy in the region of a missing tooth is presumed to be a reliable procedure. During the follow-up it appears that peri-implant bone level is stable, peri-implant soft tissues are healthy and patients are satisfied with the result. However, the number of 10-years studies on implants in the posterior region of maxilla and mandible is limited and much more studies with longer follow-up periods are needed to confirm the positive outcomes. - Main research question The primary objective of the study is marginal bone level changes by radiological assessments at 10-years follow-up. Secondary objectives are implant and restoration survival, condition of peri- implant mucosa and patients' satisfaction. - Design The study design is an observational study of a group of patients which were treated 10 years ago with a dental implant and an implant-supported restoration because of a missing tooth in the posterior region. Outcomes: primary outcome is the change in marginal peri-implant bone level 10 years after placing the definitive restoration. Secondary outcome measures will be implant and restoration survival, peri-implant mucosa health and patients' satisfaction using a questionnaire. - Expected results Stable peri-implant bone levels, stable peri-implant soft tissue levels, high implant and restoration survival rate and satisfied patients.
An exploratory, pre-market, open, prospective, interventional, clinical investigation at a limited number of centers for proof of concept of a new catheter. In this proof of concept investigation, subjects experienced in using transanal irrigation (TAI) with a balloon catheter will be using study catheters at two occasions to primarily study if the catheter will stay in place during the water instillation when performing TAI. Each subject will be followed during approximately one week, depending on the usual time between their TAI.
