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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban compared with placebo in the prevention of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) events and VTE-related death post-hospital discharge in high-risk, medically ill patients.
The purpose of this study is to investigate in acromegalic patients the effect of different doses of ITF2984 on GH and IGF-1 concentrations and to investigate safety and tolerability of three different doses of ITF2984.
The study should enrol 50 patients with stable coronary artery disease scheduled for elective percutaneous coronary intervention of single, de novo lesion of native coronary artery. Patients will be randomized to orally given trimetazidine on top of standard medical therapy for stable coronary artery disease versus standard therapy only. The randomization will begin 48 hrs before intervention. Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) will be measured by thermodilution method using coronary pressure and temperature wire before and after stent implantation. Echocardiography will be performed before intervention and within 30 minutes after intervention. Patients will be followed clinically for a period of one year.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the time to first pulmonary exacerbation of bronchiectasis or its frequency can be prolonged by inhalation of ciprofloxacin for 28 days every other 28 days or for 14 days every other 14 days over 48 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the addition of veliparib plus carboplatin and paclitaxel versus the addition of placebo plus carboplatin and paclitaxel in adults with advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
There is initial evidence that the choice of anesthesia can influence survival in the specific setting of coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG). A recent international consensus conference included volatile agents among the few drugs/techniques/strategies that might reduce perioperative mortality in cardiac surgery and that should be further studied. Volatile anesthetics (desflurane, isoflurane and sevoflurane) have non-anesthetic pharmacological characteristics that confer cardiac protection when compared to Total IntraVenous Anesthesia (TIVA). Several randomized controlled studies were summarized in a meta-analysis that documented a reduction in perioperative cardiac troponin release and mortality in patients receiving volatile anesthetics when compared to patients receiving a TIVA. There are four published studies (Bignami et al. 2009) (De Hert et al. 2009) (Jackobsen et al. 2007) (Landoni et al. 2007) suggesting that these benefits can translate into a reduced mortality rate in patients receiving volatile agents. The level of evidence for these four studies is not high (one meta-regression, one underpowered randomized controlled study, one retrospective study and one meta-analysis of small randomized studies) and there is need for a large multicentre randomized controlled study to confirm these findings, as suggested by the international consensus conference on this topic published in 2011 (Landoni et al 2011). The purpose is to provide a large multicentre controlled randomized trial to demonstrate that volatile anesthetics can reduce 1 year mortality from 3% to 2% in patients undergoing CABG (either with or without cardiopulmonary bypass). The results of this study can support the use of volatile agents in all CABG procedures worldwide (more than 500.000 per year) with 2.500 lives saved per year (in the hypothesis that nowadays half the procedures are performed with a TIVA and that 1 year mortality can be reduced from 3% to 2% using volatile agents).
Stents are metallic tubular supports placed inside a blood vessel to relieve an obstruction and restore blood flow to the heart muscle. Stents could also be coated with a drug (drug-eluting stents - DES) that improves local healing and inhibits growth of scar tissue within the vessel that otherwise could lead to re-narrowing. This study will evaluate the effects of 2 FDA-approved metallic stents with different designs that may have important effects on regional plaque response and blood flow dynamics immediately after stent deployment and stent healing at 12 months follow up.
Clinical Investigation Design A prospective, open-label, non-randomized, interventional clinical study, sponsored by Endospan Ltd. Patients will be followed-up for five years. Investigational Device The Horizon™ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Stent Graft System and its designated Delivery System. Purpose The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Horizon™ AAA Stent Graft System for the treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic and/or aortoiliac aneurysms. The results of this study will be used as supportive data for CE Marking submission in the European Union (EU). Objectives The primary objectives of the study are to evaluate the safety and performance of the Horizon™ AAA Stent graft System. Primary End Points Safety endpoints include proportion of patients free from device related Major Adverse Events (MAEs) within 1 month of the endovascular procedure. Performance endpoints include successful delivery and deployment of the device; and absence of the following at 1 month follow-up: aneurysm growth ≥5mm, type I or III endoleaks, stent graft occlusion, conversion to open surgery, rupture and stent graft migration. Subject population Thirty (30) patients having infrarenal abdominal aortic and/or aortoiliac aneurysms, having Iliac/femoral access vessel morphology that is compatible with vascular access techniques and devices. Treatment All patients will be treated by implantation of the Horizon™ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Stent graft System.
This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of 2 doses of pregabalin to reduce seizure frequency as an add on therapy in pediatric subjects 1 month to <4 years of age with refractory partial onset seizures. It is hypothesized that both doses of pregabalin will demonstrate superior efficacy when compared to placebo by reducing the partial onset seizure frequency and that pregabalin will be safe and well tolerated.
A single-center, prospective case series clinical study consecutively enrolling up to 10 patients with expected duration of 12 months or less. The study objectives are to evaluate retention and the feasibility of integrating therapeutic hypothermia using the ZOLL IVTM System.
