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.
Many adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) have depressive symptoms, which negatively impact their quality of life. A lot of of the non-medicinal forms of treatment are not or hardly suitable for people with ID. Bright light therapy (BLT) seems to be a good option. Earlier research has shown that BLT is applicable in this group and seems promising in terms of reducing depressive symptoms, without serious side effects. In part 1 of this project we investigate the implementation of BLT at Amarant. We will take the lessons learned into part 2 of this project: the implementation of BLT at Abrona. We will evaluate this process and the outcomes.
Body weight support systems are commonly used for gait training. A new breed of devices for gait training are soft exosuits. To optimize rehabilitation outcomes, it is important to gain deeper insight in the effect of these support systems on gait. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a body weight support system and soft exosuit on dynamic balance and knee and hip kinematics during gait in people with incomplete spinal cord injury.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy of povorcitinib in participants with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa who completed the 54 weeks of study treatment within the originating parent Phase 3 studies (INCB 54707-301 [NCT05620823] or INCB 54707-302 [NCT05620836]).
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the feasibility of increasing preoperative dietary fiber intake in individuals with colorectal cancer who will undergo surgery. This will be done using 1) digital personalized dietary advice or 2) a dried vegetable product compared to 3) habitual diet (control).
This study examines the impact of offering strategies on the fruit and vegetable intake of children aged 4-6. Two key factors being explored are whether caregivers initiate the offering or if it's freely provided and whether children have a choice in selecting fruits and vegetables. The objective is to determine how these strategies affect the children's fruit and vegetable intake. The research follows a 2x2 factorial cross-over design, with participants exposed to four different conditions. Interventions involve home visits, informed consent, questionnaires, and children tasting vegetables to assess their preferences. A SnackBox is placed in the home, and parents ensure it's filled based on the condition - children either choose a snack vegetable or have it initiated by parents. Daily questionnaires about vegetable consumption are completed, and the study concludes with material collection. The study includes 44 children aged 4-6 and carries minimal risks with no immediate benefits. Caregivers spend around four hours participating in the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of HMB-001 in Participants with Glanzmann Thrombasthenia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Parts A, B, and C: To determine the safety and tolerability of HMB-001 - Part A: To establish the dose level(s) and dosing interval(s) of HMB-001 to be investigated in Parts B and C - Parts B and C: To estimate the ability of HMB-001 to prevent the number and severity of bleeds Part A will assess differing singular doses of HMB-001 in small groups of participants. The dose administered to a newly enrolled participant (or groups of participants) may only increase if analysis of data from previous dosing shows it is safe to do so. The planned duration of participation in Part A is approximately 6 months, which consists of a Screening Period, an optional Run-in Observation Period, and a follow-up period of 8 weeks. Part B is similar to Part A as it involves testing different dose levels of HMB-001 in small groups of participants. However, in Part B, HMB-001 is given multiple times over a 3-month period, either weekly, every 2 weeks, or every 4 weeks. Part B consists of a Screening Period, a Run-in Observation Period, a 3-month Treatment Period, and a Safety Follow-up following the last dose of HMB-001. Part C is open to participants from Part B and consists of approximately a 9-month Treatment Period and a Safety Follow-up following the last dose of HMB-001.
Background Portal hypertension (PH) is a spectrum of complications of end-stage liver disease (ESLD) and cirrhosis, with severe manifestations including ascites and gastroesophageal varices. It is therefore important that timely and easily diagnosing PH has relevant prognostic and therapeutic implications. The current gold standard to evaluate PH is by hepatic vein catheterization using the transjugular approach, and measuring the hepatic venous pressure gradients (HVPG). Time-resolved, three-dimensional, three-directional velocity-encoded MRI, also termed four-dimensional (4D) flow MRI, has been shown superior accuracy over conventional two-dimensional (2D) phase-contrast MRI, in particular for quantification of regurgitant volumes and severity of cardiac shunts. Recently, the investigators developed new imaging methods based on 4D flow MRI for visualization of the vasculature of the abdominal blood flow circulation including the portal vein. Using the newly developed computation fluid dynamics (CFD) model the investigators could determine the absolute local blood pressure in the portal vein. Preliminary data in healthy volunteers seem promising, however, data in patients with ESLD including the correlation with invasively measured HVPG are lacking. Objectives The primary objective is to develop and validate noninvasive CFD and 4D Flow MRI based HVPG calculation to estimate portal pressure in patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD). Methods In 50 adult patients with ESLD, submitted for liver transplantation (LT) screening, HVPG measurements using the transjugular approach according to the standard LT screening protocol, will be extended by 4D flow MRI measurements. Anticipated results In patients with ESLD, portal pressure can be measured by 4D flow MRI and will replace the invasive transjugular approach. The measurements can be directly incorporated in the LT screening. Moreover, the possibility to easily measure portal pressure will be relevant for all patients with ESLD at risk for PH. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Patients will undergo a single non-invasive MRI-examination of one hour long after a four hour period of fasting. The risks associated with non-invasive MRI examinations is neglectable.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of a vegetarian diet on innate immunity of patients with a recent acute myocardial infarction and healthy participants. Also, we will assess the willingness to adapt a more vegetarian eating habit. Study subjects will follow a vegetarian diet for five weeks, whereafter a stabilisation period of six weeks will follow. Then, participants will follow to the other dietary intervention for five weeks. Blood will be drawn at given time points to analyse inflammatory parameters.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of either talquetamab plus pomalidomide (Tal-P) or talquetamab plus teclistamab (Tal-Tec) with elotuzumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (EPd) or pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (PVd).
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate communication through a brain implant in people in locked-in state, i.e. people with severe paralysis and communication problems. The main questions it aims to answer are efficient and stable control of Brain-Computer interface (BCI) functions for communication with attempted hand movements and operation of a keyword-based speech BCI. Participants will be implanted with four electrode grids, with in total 128 electrodes, on the surface of the brain and a connector on the skull. Participation includes visits of researchers for recording and training at home, 2-3 times per week for one year. Extension of participation after one year is possible. If successful, the participant will be able to use the BCI at home independently, without the presence of a researcher.
