There are about 1039 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Slovenia. 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.
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare disease that results in low levels of platelets - the cells that help blood clot. The main aim of the study is to check for side effects from taking TAK-079 at three different dose levels. Another aim is to learn if TAK-079 can increase the platelet count in people with ITP. In addition to receiving stable background therapy for ITP, participants will receive an injection of either TAK-079 or a placebo once a week for 2 months. A placebo looks like TAK-079 but will not have any medicine in it. After treatment, all participants will be followed-up for another 2 months. Then, participants who received TAK-079 will continue to be followed-up for an extra 4 months. Participants who received the placebo and would like to receive TAK-079 may be able to do this in an extension period in the study.
The primary objective of this study (LANDMARK) is to compare the safety and effectiveness of the Myval THV Series with Contemporary Valves (Sapien THV Series and Evolut THV Series) in patients with severe symptomatic native aortic valve stenosis. This study will be done in total 768 subjects (384:384, Myval THV Series vs. Contemporary Valves) The randomisation will be carried out with an allocation ratio of 1:1 between Myval THV Series vs. Contemporary Valves (Sapien THV Series and Evolut THV Series)
The iLIVE project involves a cohort study in which patients with an estimated life expectancy of six months or less are followed until they die. In total, the investigators will include 2200 patients in 11 countries, i.e. 200 per country. The primary outcome for the cohort study is a descriptive assessment of the concerns, expectations and preferences around dying and end-of-life care of patients and their relatives, in different settings and cultures..
The aim of the study is to optimise the hand dexterity exercising program in virtual reality (VR) for patients with multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. Little research has been published on this topic, but the preliminary results are promising. Different levels of difficulty of a VR game will be tested. The patients will be assessed using neuropsychological tests of executive functions, visuospatial abilities, mental speed, flexibility and motor speed. Functional ability, coordination and cognitive abilities will also be assessed.
The purpose of the study is to explore the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) semaglutide on modulation of taste sensitivity, tongue tissue transcriptome, modulation of neural response in central reward processing regions and gastric emptying rate. In addition, we aim to investigate the associations between semaglutide induced modulation of taste sensitivity, neural responses and gastric emptying with changes in body mass, eating- behavioural pattern, food perception and food intake.
The investigators purpose is to research the impact of the simultaneous use of a new dialysis membrane with higher permeability for medium and protein bound uraemic toxins (medium cut-off dialysis membrane Theranova®) combined with diet modification to reduce the level of inflammation in chronic dialysis patients. The investigators hypothesize that the use of a medium-cut off dialysis membrane and dietary modification work synergistically and cause a significant and clinically meaningful reduction in inflammation levels compared to on-line hemodiafiltration with a high-flux dialysis membrane.
The study will assess the prevalence of mental health problems among different athletes. The study is based on the application of the battery of psychodiagnostic questionnaires, which were chosen aiming at investigating the prevalence of different symptoms related to problems in mental health or disorders. This descriptive cross-sectional study will undertake sample with athletes categorized by the quality of their achievement.
Medtronic is sponsoring the Micra AV Registry using the Micra AV system for continued surveillance of chronic atrioventricular synchronous pacing as intended, through the collection of data based on routine clinical care practice, following commercial release. The Micra AV Registry is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Registry (PSR) platform.
Uncontrolled and prolonged oxidative stress plays an important role in the onset and progression of cardiovascular disease, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and various cancers. Given that many diseases can start as early as childhood, eating patterns in childhood and preventing oxidative damage can have beneficial long-term health effects. Antioxidant-rich foods can slow down the progression of chronic diseases. In Slovenian kindergartens (and schools) children consume up to 70% of their daily energy and nutritional needs, so what is offered to them is very important. This study will evaluate the hypothesis that providing an antioxidant-rich diet in kindergartens can result in the reduction of biomarkers of oxidative stress.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with alpelisib in combination with nab-paclitaxel is safe and effective in subjects with advanced triple negative breast cancer (aTNBC) who carry either a PIK3CA mutation (Study Part A) or have PTEN loss (Study Part B1) or PTEN loss without PIK3CA mutation (Study Part B2)
