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 study is a 2-part open-label, randomized, crossover, multicenter, non-therapeutic Phase II study to investigate the presence of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of EPANOVA® (omega-3 carboxylic acids) and omega-3-acid ethyl esters (OMACOR®, Abbott Healthcare Products Ltd) following a single oral dose in patients with different degrees of PEI.
This randomized, open-label study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) in combination with carboplatin + paclitaxel or carboplatin + nab-paclitaxel compared with treatment with carboplatin + nab-paclitaxel in chemotherapy-naive participants with Stage IV squamous NSCLC.
This study is design to explore the effect of GED-0301 on clinical and endoscopic outcome and to evaluate its safety in subjects with active Crohn's disease.
This randomized, open-label study evaluated the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab (an engineered anti-programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1] antibody) in combination with carboplatin+paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab compared with treatment with carboplatin+paclitaxel+bevacizumab in chemotherapy-naïve participants with Stage IV non-squamous NSCLC. Participants were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to Arm A (Atezolizumab+Carboplatin+Paclitaxel), Arm B (Atezolizumab+Carboplatin+Paclitaxel+Bevacizumab), or Arm C (Carboplatin+Paclitaxel+Bevacizumab).
The aim of the project is to demonstrate a fibrinolytic effect of sonothrombolysis (continual transcranial Doppler monitoring) using 2 MHz diagnostic probe on the reduction of risk of brain infarctions due to the activation of endogenous fibrinolytic system during angioplasty and stenting of coronary arteries. 120 patients indicated for coronary angioplasty and stenting will be enrolled into the study in order to demonstrate a twenty-percent risk reduction of number and volume of brain infarctions detected using MRI examination 24 hours after cardiac endovascular treatment in 5% level of significance. Patients will be randomized - subgroup 1 will undergo a 40-240 minute non-diagnostic TCD monitoring during endovascular procedure, subgroup 2 will undergo interventions without TCD monitoring. Confirmation of our hypothesis that sonothrombolysis is able to activate endogenous fibrinolytic system during coronary angioplasty and stenting with consecutive reduction of the number and volume of brain infarcts, can lead to the increase of the safety these patients. We can presume that up to 50% of patients indicated for endovasular heart treatment can be treated using these methods in the future.
This is a phase IIIa, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group multicenter study evaluating once daily FF/UMEC/VI (100 microgram [mcg]/62.5 mcg/25 mcg) inhalation powder versus twice daily budesonide/formoterol (400 mcg/12 mcg). The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate improvements in lung function and health status for subjects treated with FF/UMEC/VI compared with budesonide/formoterol for 24 weeks. Once-daily 'closed' triple therapy of a Inhaled Corticosteroid/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist (ICS/LAMA/LABA) combination FF/UMEC/VI (100 mcg/62.5 mcg/25 mcg) in a single device is being developed with the aim of providing a new treatment option for the management of advanced (GOLD Group D) COPD which will reduce the exacerbation frequency, allow for a reduced burden of polypharmacy, convenience, and increase the potential for improvement in lung function, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) and symptom control over established dual/monotherapies. Subjects meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria and who have successfully completed all protocol procedures at the Screening Visit will enter the two-week run-in period. Following the run-in period, eligible subjects will be randomised (1:1) to one of the following double-blind treatment groups: FF/UMEC/VI 100 mcg/62.5 mcg/25 mcg via the ELLIPTA™ dry powder inhaler (DPI) once daily in the morning and placebo via reservoir inhaler twice daily OR Budesonide/formoterol 400 mcg/12 mcg via reservoir inhaler twice daily and placebo via the ELLIPTA DPI once daily in the morning. The target enrollment is 1800 randomised subjects at approximately 200 study centers globally. The total duration of subject participation will be approximately 27 weeks, consisting of a 2-week run-in period, 24-week treatment period and a 1-week follow-up period. Subjects will run-in on their existing COPD medications for 2 weeks and in addition will be provided with short acting albuterol/salbutamol to be used on an as-needed basis (rescue medication) throughout the study. Subjects will discontinue all existing COPD medications during the randomised treatment period but may continue their study supplied rescue albuterol/salbutamol. A sub-set of approximately 400 subjects will remain on blinded study treatment for up to a total of 52 weeks to provide additional long term safety data.

The primary requirement of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is to preserve life by terminating life-threatening arrhythmias (VT/VF). The treatment options vary in terms of techniques and medical devices, based on the patient's condition. It is extremely important in the clinical practice to identify which patients' subgroup benefits the most from the ICD therapy, which comorbidity has a major impact on the patients' prognosis, or which pre-intra-post procedural behaviors provoke less complications, and affect the patient's outcome (including prolonged or unwanted hospitalizations).
The BIO|GUARD-MI study investigates whether continuous arrhythmia monitoring and the consequent treatment after detected arrhythmias in patients after myocardial infarction with preserved cardiac function, but other risk factors, decreases the risk of major adverse cardiac events.
The main purpose of this study is to assess metabolic effects (decreased amount of body fat content, insulin sensitivity and lipid profile improvement) of weight loss intervention based on specific life style counseling (low calorie "metabolic stairs" diet and circuit-based exercise in a comparison to conventional diet and exercise. The main hypothesis is that more significant beneficial metabolic effects will have specific life style counseling effect than conventional diet and exercise. The main purpose of this study is to assess above mentioned metabolic changes before and after 6-8 weeks of weight loss intervention. The investigators will also study the following: 1. The impact of life style counseling induced weight and/or fat loss on physical fitness 2. The impact of life style counseling induced weight and/or fat loss on metabolic parameters (e.g. insulin sensitivity, lipid profile, ect.)
The purpose of this trial is to confirm the safety and clinical benefit of benralizumab administration in asthma patients with mild to moderate persistent asthma in order to gain an understanding of the benefit/risk of benralizumab across the spectrum of asthma disease.
