There are about 3133 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Romania. 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.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate how effective JNJ-77242113 is in participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis compared to placebo and deucravacitinib.
This is a comparative study on patient and endoscopist experience during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with NSAIDs (flurbiprofen) topical analgesia versus xilocaine spray topical anesthesia of the pharynx, before procedure.
Patients with colorectal polyps removed endoscopically (polypectomy, endoscopic mucosal resection, underwater endoscopic mucosal resection, endoscopic submucosal dissection) may experience delayed post polypectomy bleeding. The incidence is about one in 40 cases. There are risks factors for this complication, depending on the polyp type, patient demographics and co-morbidities and polypectomy technique. There are meta-analysis and nomograms for risk prediction available. We will try to predict delayed post polypectomy bleeding by using FIT (fecal immunochemical test), with a cut-off adapted to detect post polypectomy bleeding, administered daily for 2 weeks after polypectomy.
The investigators aim to establish wether the administration of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) improves visibility of the mucosa during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of an intervention designed to promote mental health literacy in adolescents. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether this intervention can have an impact on mental health 2. Whether this intervention can have an impact on fostering academic performance, particularly in disadvantaged students (i.e., academic resilience) 3. Whether this intervention will have differential effectiveness as a function of the delivery format (psychoeducational materials only versus blended) Participants will receive either an online, automated intervention consisting of psychoeducational materials delivered at predetermined intervals (automated), or the same but with the addition of synchronous or asynchronous psychoeducational sessions held by a licensed psychologist (i.e., blended). These two conditions will also be compared to a Waitlist, to test if the interventions perform better than no treatment.
Portal hypertension (PHT) is the main consequence of advanced chronic liver diseases (ACLD) and is often associated with severe complications leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Currently, the gold standard for the evaluation of the severity of PHT is the hepatic venous-pressure gradient (HVPG). The disadvantage of using the HVPG, besides the availability of the technique only in referral centres, is in the case of patients with vascular liver disorders because the HVPG underestimates the severity of PHT. Recent studies have evaluated the feasibility of the pressure gradient measurement through endoscopic transgastric and transhepatic access using special kit with a 25-gauge FNA needle (Cook Medical, Winston-Salem, NC, USA) and a compact manometer (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind, USA) that has the disadvantage of high purchase cost, no tracing of pressure possible and has not yet been properly correlated with the gold standard HVPG measurement or PPG measurement thus limiting its use in current practice. The aim of the study is 1. to assess and compare the correlations in the porto-systemic gradient measurement between a) direct portal vein puncture during TIPS insertion, b) direct portal and hepatic pressure measurements using a 22 Gauge FNA needle during endoscopic ultrasound procedure and c) indirect portal vein pressure measurements using the interventional radiology based hepatic HVPG procedure in patients with cirrhosis submitted to TIPS procedure for complications of portal hypertension and 2. To evaluate and compare the porto-systemic gradient obtained by direct portal and hepatic pressure measurements using a 22 Gauge FNA needle during endoscopic ultrasound and indirect measurement through HVPG measuring in patients with presinusoidal hypertension and those with portal vein thrombosis.
The purpose of this study is to compare disease free survival (DFS) in participants with recurrence of papillary-only high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC) within 1 year of last dose of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy and who refused or are unfit for Radical Cystectomy (RC), receiving TAR-200 versus investigator's choice of single agent intravesical chemotherapy.
The OPTIMISE-CKD CEE study design will create a real-world evidence platform that systematically leverages the routine data collection made by Investigators and will help obtain relevant insights from clinical practice. This study is likely to include a more heterogeneous population compared with the constraints required by interventional study protocols. Treatment decisions, clinical outcomes, and common treatment scenarios in the context of routine care of CKD are likely to be more generalizable than those from clinical trials. It is important to assess the current CKD treatment with dapagliflozin. The research questions can be divided into two categories: 1. What does the dapagliflozin utilisation in CKD look like? a. Who are being treated? 2. What are the selected outcomes of interest and treatment patterns among CKD patients treated with dapagliflozin, with or without type 2 diabetes (T2D) up to 12 months post-initiation? Primary objective is to characterize dapagliflozin utilisation in clinical practice, by describing treatment naïve patients who are treated with dapagliflozin for CKD. Secondary objectives are to describe selected outcomes of interest and treatment patterns among CKD patients treated with dapagliflozin up to 12 months post-initiation. The OPTIMISE-CKD CEE study is a multinational, observational, longitudinal cohort study, with a pre-post design, which will include patients who are treated with dapagliflozin with CKD in real-world clinical practice, utilising secondary data sources. This is a secondary data collection study, where variables are extracted from electronic or paper medical records. Seven Central Eastern Europe countries are planned to participate in the study: Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia. A total number of 1090 patients are estimated to be included in the study. The study population will consist of adult patients with CKD who meet the country-specific label for dapagliflozin as treatment for CKD across CEE.
This study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of I-DXd with treatment of physician's choice in participants with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
This study prospectively explores antimicrobial resistance in patients with acute cholangitis undergoing ERCP procedures. By analyzing patient profiles, microbial cultures, and treatment outcomes, the current study seeks to identify specific patterns of resistance, assess the effectiveness of current antimicrobial therapies, and explore potential strategies to optimize treatment regimens.
