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.
Rationale: Increased albuminuria has a relatively high prevalence in the general population (5-9%) People with increased albuminuria are more likely to develop progressive kidney and cardiovascular disease compared to persons with no albuminuria. ACE-inhibitors or Angiotensin Receptor Blockers are recommended by clinical practice guidelines to lower albuminuria in patients with hypertension and diabetes. However, despite these drugs decrease albuminuria by approximately 30%, elevated albuminuria remains present in the substantial proportion of persons in the general population. SGLT2 inhibitors are a relatively new class of drugs. Originally they were developed as oral antihyperglycemic drugs. SGLT2 inhibitors have been demonstrated to lower albuminuria and protect the kidney in patients with established chronic kidney disease (CKD) with or without diabetes. Whether the efficacy of SGTL2 inhibitors to lower albuminuria (and possibly confer kidney protection) to persons in the general population (with or without diabetes or hypertension) with persistent albuminuria who generally are at early stages of CKD is unknown. Objective: To assess the albuminuria lowering effects of dapagliflozin in subjects with and without diabetes or hypertension and persistent elevated albuminuria. Study design: Randomized placebo-controlled double blind clinical trial of 24 weeks in duration followed by a 4 weeks wash-out period
This study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of REN001 administered once daily to subjects with PMM due to mitochondrial DNA mutations (mtDNA-PMM) or nuclear DNA mutations (nDNA-PMM). Subjects with mtDNA mutations will have previously completed Study REN001-201 or participated in Study REN001-101. Subjects with nDNA mutations who enroll in this study will be REN001- naïve.
Cystitis is the most frequent reason for women to visit their general practitioner. More than 600.000 women suffer from urinary tract infections in The Netherlands each year. Currently, the 1st choice treatment for uncomplicated cystitis is nitrofurantoin (NIT) for 5 days. The second choice is 3 gram fosfomycin-trometamol (FT) in a single dose. FT is increasingly prescribed because it has few side-effects and it has a patient-friendly dosing scheme. Previous research did not show significant difference in efficacy between fosfomycin and nitrofurantoin, but a clinical trial from 2018 claims a single dose of FT might be inferior to 5 days of nitrofurantoin. Pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic research suggests that a single dose of FT may be insufficient to cure cystitis. Overall, it remains unknown whether a single gift of FT is as efficacious as 5 days of nitrofurantoin for uncomplicated cystitis with regard to clinical cure and if an additional gift of FT would overcome this. A clinical trial is therefore warranted. Objective: To investigate the comparative effectiveness and side-effects of 5 days of nitrofurantoin, single dose FT, and extended use of FT in uncomplicated cystitis in primary care. Study design: An open-label randomized non-inferiority / superiority study with 3 arms. Study population: 777 non-pregnant women with symptoms of uncomplicated cystitis, with 259 subjects in each study arm. Intervention: (A) FT in a single dose of 3000mg on day 1; (B) extended dosing of 3000mg FT on day 1 and 3 (C) nitrofurantoin 100mg bid (slow release) for 5 days. Main study parameters/endpoints: primary: days of absence of cystitis symptoms within 28 days. Secondary: clinical failure on day 28, microbiological failure on day 28, incidence of side-effects, cost-effectiveness Burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: A potential risk of participation is that the treatment arm to which the patient is allocated is either less efficacious, has more adverse events or higher recurrence rate than the other treatment arms. However, NIT and FT are both frequently used for urinary tract infections and considered safe and effective compounds for uncomplicated cystitis. According to previous studies, a second dose of FT is well tolerated. The potential risks of participation on severe adverse events is expected to be negligible as the risk of severe clinical failure after cystitis treatment is only 1% according to previous studies and differences between NIT and FT have not been observed previously. A potential benefit of participating to this study is that a more patient friendly treatment scheme is equally effective. For future patients the guidelines could be improved and become more patient-friendly. The burden of participation is considered low. Study participants need to complete a short daily questionnaire on a mobile application up to 28 days.
This is a parallel treatment, Phase 2, randomized, double-blind study to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of twice daily (BID) oral SAR443820 compared with placebo in male and female participants, 18 to 80 years of age with ALS followed by an open-label, long-term extension period. Study ACT16970 consists of 2 parts (A and B) as follows: Part A is a 24-week, double blind, placebo-controlled part, preceded by a screening period of up to 4 weeks before Day 1. On Day 1 of Part A, participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to the SAR443820 treatment arm or matching placebo arm as listed below: - Treatment arm: SAR443820, BID - Placebo arm: Placebo, BID Randomization will be stratified by the geographic region of the study site, region of ALS onset (bulbar vs other areas), use of riluzole (yes vs no), use of edaravone (yes vs no) and use of the combination of sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol (named Relyvrio in the United States of America [USA] and Albrioza in Canada) (yes vs no). Participants will attend in-clinic study assessments at baseline (Day 1), Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Week 8, Week 10, Week 12, Week 16, Week 20, Week 21, Week 22, Week 23, and Week 24. All ongoing participants at Week 24 will rollover to open-label extension Part B. The Week 24 Visit is the end of Part A and the beginning of Part B. Part B is an open-label, long-term extension period that starts from Week 24 and continues up to Week 106. The objectives of Part B are to provide extended access to SAR443820 participants in Part A and to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term SAR443820 treatment. The treatment assignment of participants at randomization in Part A will remain blinded to Investigators, participants, and site personnel until the end of Part B. Every participant, except those who discontinue Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) treatment permanently in Part A, will receive BID oral tablets of SAR443820 in Part B.
Clinical data suggest that treatment with OM-85, by inducing an early contact with bacterial extracts, could modulate the immunity of children with Atopic Dermatitis, and thus play an active role in the treatment of Atopic Dermatitis. The present trial will investigate the influence of administration of OM-85 in the paediatric population younger than 24 months with moderate atopic dermatitis. The efficacy and safety of OM-85 will be evaluated in children aged 3 to 24 months old with moderate Atopic Dermatitis who may benefit from treatment with OM-85. The placebo treatment period will serve as a reference and has been added to establish efficacy and safety.
The pre-operative assessment of intra-abdominal tumor load in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unreliable with standard imaging modalities. The use of tumor targeted imaging, such as folate receptor (FR)-targeted positron emission tomography (PET) imaging could aid in the preoperative assessment of metastatic tumor load. This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of the [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET tracer and to assess the sensitivity and specificity of a [18F]fluoro-PEG-folate PET/CT scan for the preoperative detection of intra-abdominal metastatic lesions in patients with advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of hypoglycemia in adult and pediatric participants with glycogen storage disease type III (GSD III).
Blunt chest trauma comprises over 10% of all trauma patients presenting to emergency departments worldwide and is the most frequent injury in polytrauma patients. It is associated with high risk (>10%) of pulmonary complications such as pneumonia. Pillars of treatment are adequate pain relief, respiratory function exercises and rapid mobilisation through physiotherapy. Inadequate pain control can result in restricted ventilatory function and in reduced mobility, both resulting in a higher risk of particularly pulmonary complications. Virtual Reality (VR) might be an easy to use, individualized, and harmless technique that can facilitate pulmonary recovery and aid in the prevention of complications through reducing pain and promoting exercising. The investigators hypothesize that VR improves respiratory function and mobilisation in the post-acute phase of blunt chest trauma by distracting patients from pain and stress, and by stimulating pulmonary and physical exercise.
This study is open to adults with liver cirrhosis and high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat helps people with this condition. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of Avenciguat as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo as tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like Avenciguat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 8 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 14 times. At 3 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The change in blood pressure is then compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
