A fundamental question in the current research proposal concerns how changes in cognitive and social-emotional behavior are related to functional and anatomical brain development. The current proposal has the objective to (a) understand the neural…
To relate exposure markers of EDCs to health outcomes in children - in particular obesity and neurobehavioral disorders -, effect biomarkers, and other parameters via multiple regression and multivariate analysis, while taking into account relevant…
Primary Objective: to study the differences in CD4+ T cell subsets (Th1/Th2/Th17/Tregulatory/Tsenescent) between GCA patients and healthy controls at diagnosis and during follow up and in remission. Secondary Objective(s): - To characterize the cell…
The main objective is to describe the interactions between physical sensory stimulations and high-level prior assumptions that give rise to visual perception. In two secondary objectives, we will advance novel model-based neuroimaging data-analysis…
The aim of the project is to examine the association between clinical, environmental and genetic characteristics of the recipient of erythrocyte transfusions and the risk or resistance to immunization against erythrocyte alloantigens that he/she was…
The aim of this project is to evaluate the clinical value of biomarkers in adult patients with congenital heart disease, in particular:1) quantify biomarkers of neurohormonal activity as NTproBNP, endotheline-1 and of immunological activity as CRP,…
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate how safe and effective Denosumab is, compared with placebo, in delaying the time it takes for cancer to spread to the bones in subjects with early-stage breast cancer at high risk of recurrence.The…
We will develop a bi-daily low-dose metronomic treatment schedule with paclitaxel in a convenient oral formulation and test whether this therapy has significant anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor activity.
The objective of this project is to 1. increase accuracy and reproducibility of the most critical step in hip arthroplasty i.e. cup positioning;2. to alleviate one of the major complications of the straight lateral approach, i.e. abductor…
Within this project we aim to determine the energetic conditions that underlie the transition to hypertrophy of the HOCM heart. A prospective comparison will be made between results of PET, MRI and function of cardiac myofilaments (in vitro). Also,…
Phase A:Primary objective: Determining the feasibility of gemcitabine as a radiosensitizer in DIPG Secondary objective: Evaluation of efficacy in terms of clinical and radiological response rate and progression free survivalTertiary objectives:…
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of concentration controlled combination of once daily dosed low-dose sirolimus (trough levels: 3-5 ng/ml) and extended-release tacrolimus (trough levels:3-5 ng/ml), in order to provide superior renal function…
CAROLINA studyThe aim of the present study is to investigate the long*term impact on CV morbidity and mortality and relevant efficacy parameters (HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, treatment sustainability) of treatment with linagliptin in a relevant…
A prospective randomized phase III clinical trial to study the effectiveness of pathogen-reduced platelet concentrates in plasma, stored for up to 7 days, and compare these with untrested platelet concentrates in plasma, stored for up to 7 days. The…
The main objective of this study is to determine the added value of NIR fluorescence imaging in patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing SL and to identify predictors for patients that may benefit from SL.
To explore if the addition of bevacizumab to temozolomide improves outcome as compared to treatment with temozolomide alone in patients with recurrent low grade and anaplastic glioma without combined 1p/19q co-deletion after prior radiotherapy and…
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ABT-767 and the effect of food on ABT-767 bioavailability in subjects with BRCA1 or BRCA2 germ line mutation and associated solid tumors (e.g. breast…
This research theme consists of two related studies with the primary aim to investigate determinants of the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis in early childhood. The first part is performed to determine the association of adipocytokines with fat…
Primary: superiority of GSK2118436 over DTIC with respect to progression-free survival for subjects with BRAF mutation positive metastatic melanoma.Secondary: overall survival, best overall response, duration of response, non-melanoma skin lesions,…
