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.
This is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group and active controlled study. Patients will be randomized (1 to 1 ratio) to a 4-week double-blind treatment period of either FDC (fixed-dose combination) of tiotropium + olodaterol (5/5 µg) plus placebo or the free combination of tiotropium 5 µg and olodaterol 5 µg; all administered via the Respimat® inhaler. The purpose is to show non-inferiority between the FDC and the free combination of tiotropium and olodaterol in patients with COPD.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of delafloxacin compared to moxifloxacin in the treatment of adult patients with community-acquired pneumonia.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of vedolizumab versus other biologic agents in participants with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD).
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of crenezumab versus placebo in participants with prodromal to mild AD. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either intravenous (IV) infusion of crenezumab or placebo every 4 weeks (Q4W) for 100 weeks. The final efficacy and safety assessment will be performed 52 weeks after the last crenezumab dose. Participants will then have the option to enter the Open Label Extension (OLE) study if eligible. Participants who do not enter the OLE study will have additional follow-up visits at 16 and 52 weeks after the last dose, primarily for safety and also for limited efficacy assessments.
The modern era of cardiac surgery began in early 1950s with the introduction of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Although it has been clearly shown that CPB is almost unavoidable for most open heart operations, an undesirable systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is associated with its use. This complex chain of events has strong similarities with sepsis and may contribute to the development of postoperative complications and multiple organ failure (MOF). It has been shown that an excessive compensatory anti-inflammatory response (CARS) after SIRS can lead to immune paralysis and increased rate of hospital acquired infection. The balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators determines the inflammatory response and the clinical outcome. Accordingly, great efforts have been focused on therapeutic interventions aimed at reducing the inflammatory reactions during CPB, including pharmacologic strategies and modification of surgical techniques or mechanical devices. Such therapies may provide improvements in patient outcome after open heart operations. Among pharmacologic strategies is the prophylaxis with corticosteroids, which have been used during open heart surgery for more than 30 years. Many studies, both experimental and clinical, failed to produce evidence in favor of steroid treatment. As far as medical devices are concerned, the use of extracorporeal cytokine filter CytoSorb looks promising in cardiac surgery. It was recently approved by European Medicines Agency as an active treatment to fight cytokine storm. Serum paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is a lipo-lactonase, being associated with HDL that has an anti-inflammatory role and protects against atherosclerosis. Low levels of PON1 are associated with venous graft occlusion in patients with coronary artery bypass grafting. PON1 reduces monocyte chemotaxis and adhesion to endothelial cells, leading to inhibition of the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages. The effects of cytokine adsorption therapy on PON1 are unknown. The aim of the study is to explore the effects of extracorporeal immunoadsorption during CPB on pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory protective mediators and cellular immune status in cardiac surgery.
The Study will compare treatment with Closed Loop (CL) system - DreaMed MD-AID to the standard treatment without computer algorithm decisions - SAP therapy in 20 children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) during and after afternoon physical activity. The aims of the study are: - to demonstrate that the use of DreaMed MD-AID is safe during physical activity - to investigate the risk of hypoglycemia among children and adolescents with T1D after afternoon exercise during closed-loop control.
The combination of two Lactubacillus reuteri strains, ATC 55730 and ATCC PTA 6457 are marketed as GASTRUS® and has been proposed as better option in increasing Helicobacter pylori eradication rate compared to the single strain ATC 55730, due to additional anti-inflammatory properties of the second strain. Objectives of the study are to determine whether adding probiotic combination (GASTRUS®) to an anti- Helicobacter pylori regimen decreases adverse events and increases the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori in the pediatric population infected with Helicobacter pylori bacteria.
In this controlled trial, patients with tetralogy of Fallot will be randomized to either interval training, continuous training, or usual care groups.
In this controlled trial, patients with peripheral arterial disease will be randomized to either maximal walking, submaximal walking, or usual care groups.
The main purpose of this study is to describe the safety and tolerability of 80 weeks of subcutaneous (SC) evolocumab when added to standard of care in children 10 to 17 years of age with familial hypercholesterolemia.
