There are about 1560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Serbia. 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.
Patients who have been treated successfully for bowel cancer (colorectal cancer) sometimes go on to develop nodules of disease in another part of the body. If this disease is found to be related to the original cancer it is called a metastasis. Some patients develop one or more metastases particularly in the lungs or the liver. There is a growing trend to remove lung metastases with an operation, in the belief that this will help patients live longer, however there have not been any scientific studies to prove this. There is also very little published information about the side effects of this surgery and how it affects subsequent daily living. This is a feasibility study to determine whether it will be possible to conduct a large randomised controlled trial investigating the value of pulmonary metastasectomy (surgery to remove lung metastases) in patients who have been successfully treated for colorectal cancer. There is a two stage consent and randomisation process. Firstly, patients will be invited to consent to having a full range of investigations to assess their suitability for surgery. If found to be suitable, they will then be invited to consent to randomisation between active monitoring of their disease or active monitoring with pulmonary metastasectomy. Patients will be followed up regularly for 5 years to assess their disease status and to measure their quality of life and lung function.
The AC-065A302 (GRIPHON) study is an event-driven Phase 3 study to demonstrate the effect of selexipag on time to first morbidity or mortality event in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Rationale: Gathering medical information and tumor samples from patients with male breast cancer may help doctors learn more about the disease. Purpose retrospective part: to perform a large international retrospective analysis of clinical and biological data of male BC patients treated in the participating centers from 1990 to 2010. Purpose prospective part: to create a registry of men with breast cancer for a period of 30 months (starting early 2014).
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of brentuximab vedotin (SGN-35) and best supportive care (BSC) compared to placebo and BSC in treatment of residual Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) following autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).
The study will compare the effect of pramipexole on different types of tremor and particularly kinetic tremor in early and advanced Parkinson's disease patients and will evaluate the course of tremor measured with spiralometry under pramipexole treatment.
The increasing use of anthracyclines and taxanes in the adjuvant, neoadjuvant and first-line metastatic settings, led to a raise of patients presenting with metastatic breast cancer after treatment with these agents. Options for the treatment of patients who have progressed after an anthracycline and a taxane are limited. The high level of in-vitro synergy of vinflunine combined with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) together with the good tolerance and the encouraging response rate observed while combining IV vinflunine to oral capecitabine make it a promising combination to investigate further in a phase III trial. This phase III trial will evaluate the effectiveness and the safety profile of such combination for the treatment of patient with advanced breast cancer previously treated with or resistant to anthracycline and taxane resistant.
In this study, the suitability of an infant formula with a modified content of protein and fatty acid pattern (LC-PUFA) for healthy term infants will be investigated. Primary hypothesis to be tested is: an infant formula with a modified protein content is non inferior compared to a standard infant formula in respect to the growth of healthy term infants.
This study is an extension to the study AC-058B201 and will investigate the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of ponesimod in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.
This is an 18-week, double-blind, multicenter study with gradual conversion from previous antiepileptic therapy to eslicarbazepine acetate monotherapy in subjects with partial epilepsy.
This is the post-marketing study conducted in two countries: Croatia and Serbia. In both countries Zemplar (paricalcitol) is the first injectable form of any Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) activator available for chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis. The evaluation of outcomes of VDR activator treatments in clinical practice is a major challenge in the management of this patient population. The aim of this post-marketing observational study is to obtain further data on the outcomes of Zemplar Injection administration during routine clinical use.
