A listing of Hilversum, Netherlands clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
Local recurrence rates in rectal cancer have reduced dramatically since the introduction of the total mesorectal excision (TME) technique and neoadjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy (C))RT) to overall rates of 5-year local recurrence to 5-10%. However, distal rectal cancers have a tendency to spread to lateral lymph nodes and it was recently shown …
The purpose the BRENAR pilot study is to assess acute post-surgical complications following mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction after neoadjuvant radiotherapy (NART). The investigators hypothesize that NART will avoid the negative effects of postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) on the capsule of an implant, or on the skin and underlying tissue of …
Study Design: A Prospective Multicenter Randomized Controlled, Open-label Non-inferiority Study to Investigate the Efficacy of Subcutaneous (SC) Infliximab (IFX) with and without Immunomodulators during Induction treatment in Moderate to Severe Crohn's Disease. Primary endpoint: The proportion of patients in corticosteroid-free clinical remission (as defined by a Crohn's disease activity index …
VahatiCor's Coronary Sinus Reducer (A-FLUX) has been designed to improve angina or angina-like symptoms in patients with CMD. SERRA-I is an early feasibility study that evaluates the safety and clinical performance of the A-FLUX Reducer in this population.
Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is the standard treatment for large vessel occlusion (LVO) strokes, but it can only be performed in specialized hospitals. Since ambulance personnel cannot determine if a patient is eligible for EVT, 54% of LVO stroke patients are initially taken to non-EVT-capable hospitals, resulting in an average delay …
Patients with pelvic fragility fractures suffer from high morbidity and mortality rates. Despite the high incidence of these injuries, there is currently no regional or nationwide treatment protocol which results in a wide variety of clinical practice. New insights in treatment strategies, such as early diagnosis and minimal invasive operative …
This project consists of four substudies: a cohort study (A) and a sodium intake intervention (B) and a sodium excretion intervention (C) and a water intervention study (D). The main objective of the cohort study (A) is to investigate the prognostic implications of tissue sodium accumulation in CKD patients. The …
In order to preserve the residual hearing in patients with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) receiving a cochlear implant (CI), the insertion trauma to the delicate and microscopic structures of the cochlea needs to be minimized. The surgical procedure starts with the conventional mastoidectomy-posterior tympanotomy (MPT) approach to the middle ear, …
With this study, the investigators aim to answer the following research questions: In what percentage of cases does the diagnostic process conducted during a fatigue consultation at the internal medicine outpatient clinic contribute to a somatic diagnosis? What are the experiences of patients presenting with fatigue at the internal medicine …
Research into novel therapies for rare, immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) is limited due to small patient populations. Patients with Behçet's disease (BD), idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM, also known as myositis) and IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) are treated with high-dosed glucocorticoids, methotrexate, azathioprine and mycophenolate mofetil, mostly for long periods of time …
