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.
So-called type 1 and 2 uterine fibroids are well treatable with Magnetic Resonance guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU). The other type, type 3 fibroids, however, are known for their high perfusion and poor treatment outcome after MR-HIFU. This study proposes a new strategy to treat type 3 fibroids with MR-HIFU. Very precise, small, high-power sonications (heating points) will be used to occlude (part of) the feeding vessels of the fibroid. This deminishes the negative effect of the high perfusion and is hypothesized to transform a type 3 fibroid into a type 2 or possibly even a type 1 fibroid. Consequently, the bulk volume of the fibroid can be treated using the standard approach.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of tryptophan depletion on mood and behavior in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients treated with deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN). By doing this, the investigators hope to be able to identify risk factors for and mechanisms underlying psychiatric side effects of STN DBS. The study will be an intervention study with a placebo controlled, randomized cross-over design.
The aim of the present study is to investigate whether additional titration on surface electromyography (EMG) of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles improves the outcome of chronic non-invasive ventilation in patients with COPD and stable chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure in terms of better gas exchange after six weeks, lung function, patient comfort and compliance, and less patient ventilator asynchrony. Therefore, the investigators set up a randomized, two-armed crossover trial comparing regular titration with additional respiratory EMG titration of NIV.
The purpose of study EP0073 is to assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy during 5 years of treatment with the drug UCB0942 in patients with highly drug-resistant focal epilepsy. Also, the effects of UCB0942 on the patient's quality of life will be explored.
The effect of nivolumab on symptomatic brain metastases is currently unknown. This phase 2 clinical trial will be the first to evaluate this intracranial effect in humans, with the aim to give these patients the possibility to be treated with anti-PD-1. Besides the objective response rate, long term benefits in this patient category will be evaluated by measuring survival in terms of progression free survival and overall survival. Furthermore safety and tolerability of administration of this drug in patients with symptomatic brain metastases will be studied, as this is the first study for nivolumab in this specific patient category.
NOAH is an investigator-initiated, prospective, parallel-group, double-blind, randomised, multi-centre trial. The objective of the trial is to demonstrate that oral anticoagulation using the NOAC edoxaban is superior to current therapy to pre-vent stroke, systemic embolism, or cardiovascular death in patients with AHRE and at least two stroke risk factors but without AF. The trial will be conducted in several European countries.
The purpose of this study is to assess the contraceptive efficacy of the etonogestrel + 17β-estradiol (ENG-E2) vaginal ring in women between 18 and 35 years of age based on the number of in-treatment pregnancies as expressed by the Pearl Index (PI). The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of ENG-E2 vaginal ring. The levonorgestrel-ethinyl estradiol (LNG-EE) 150/30 μg combined oral contraceptive (COC) will be used as the active comparator.
The purpose of this first-in-human study of MBG453 was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and anti-tumor activity of MBG453 administered i.v. as a single agent or in combination with PDR001 or decitabine in adult patients with advanced solid tumors
A Phase I Study of LXH254 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors That Harbor MAPK Pathway Alterations.
An open label, prospective, multicentre, single-arm, post marketing study evaluating the safety, technical feasibility, and efficacy of the eCLIPs™ Family of Products for the treatment of bifurcation intracranial aneurysms.
