There are about 2143 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Slovakia. 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 proof-of-concept study to define efficacy of gemcitabine, carboplatin and VELIPARIB (ABT-888) in patients with refractory germ cell tumors (GCTs). PARP proteins are involved in base excision repair (BER), one of the major DNA repair system in cells and PARP is overexpressed in testicular GCTs (TGCTs) compared to normal testis and data suggest that PARP overexpression is early event in TGCTs development. Patients with low PARP expression in primary tumour had non-significantly better OS compared to patients with high PARP expression (5-year OS 89.2% vs 78.7%; HR=0.50, 95% CI 0.21 to 1.17, p=0.12). The aim of this study is to evaluate PARP inhibitor VELIPARIB in combination with gemcitabine, carboplatin in patients with refractory germ cell tumors (GCTs).
To evaluate the efficacy and to compare efficacy and safety of BI 695501 versus Humira in patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
The human Prion diseases can be classified into sporadic, acquired and inherited forms. Inherited forms usually manifest in higher age so there have to be factors preventing Prion propagation in young mutation carriers. Antibodies against the flexible tail of Prions have been shown to be protective in mice. The investigators intend to screen mutation carriers and controls for the presence of Prion autoantibodies.
Allogenic acellular dermal matrix has been used in burn injuries or abdominal walls reconstructions. However, it is solely used in breast reconstructions after breast carcinoma amputation. The efficacy of such allogenic dermal matrix can be advantageous when compared to current treatment options, however, this has to be proved.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib modified release formulation (11mg QD) versus tofacitinib modified release formulation plus continued methotrexate treatment in subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who are insufficiently responding to their stable dose of methotrexate treatment.
This open label extension study will give an opportunity to the participants that have responded to the treatment with Pegylated-Interferon Alfa-2a (PEG-INF) or Roferon-A in prior clinical studies NO15753 (NCT00003542) for Renal Cell Carcinoma, NO15764 (NCT number not available) and NO16006 (NCT02736721) for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, and NO16007 (NCT number not available) for Malignant Melanoma.
Demonstrate superiority of secukinumab over ustekinumab in treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
Diarrhea is a relatively common complication in patients with cancer. At its inception, several mechanisms participated; malabsorption on the basis of mucositis induced by chemotherapy, dysbiosis induced by broad-spectrum antibiotics and predisposition to infectious diarrhea in immunocompromised patients. Some cytostatics and their metabolites can also induce diarrhea directly due to effect on the intestinal mucosa. Use of probiotics in prevention and treatment of diarrhea relies on both the theoretical assumptions and the results of several clinical trials. Lactic acid bacteria involved in the treatment of dysbiosis, compete for substrate with pathogenic bacteria, produce bacterio-cins, increase transepithelial resistance. Their enzymatic activity affects activation or deactivation of metabolites which cause diarrhea. Production of short chain fatty acids, which are important for the maintenance of intestinal mucosal cells also contributes to their antidiarrhoeal effect. This randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multicentre trial was designed to evaluate potential of probiotics to prevent grade 3-4 diarrhea in patients treated by irinotecan based chemotherapy during first 6 weeks of irinotecan based chemotherapy
This study was comprised of three substudies. The objective of Substudy 1 was to characterize the dose-response, efficacy, and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission to identify the induction dose of upadacitinib for further evaluation in Substudy 2. The objective of Substudy 2 was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission in participants. The objective of Substudy 3 was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in achieving clinical remission in participants who had a response following induction with upadacitinib.
To evaluate the efficacy of long-term treatment with 2 mg aflibercept via different intravitreal (IVT) treatment regimens to participants with DME pretreated with 2 mg aflibercept every 8 weeks after 5 initial monthly injections for approximately 1 year or more (according to the EU label for the first year of treatment)
