To assess the potential of the PET-tracer [11C]SMW139 to investigate the role of P2X7R, a cell surface receptor upregulated in activated microglia, in neuroinflammation in PD. The aim is to find the optimal tracer kinetic model which can be used to…
To assess activated microglia in vivo in clinically and/or radiologically active RRMS patients compared to healthy controls using the PET-tracer [11C]SMW139, to assess retest variability in regional [11C]SMW139 brain uptake, and to evaluate which…
To evaluate the efficacy of setmelanotide on changes in body weight.
Primary:• To evaluate the proportion of patients with obesity with genetic variants in a specific gene in the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) pathway who achieve a clinically meaningful reduction in body weight in response to setmelanotide at the end…
Primary Objective is to test the feasibility of a strategy in which patient preference, after a short exposure to treatment options, determines the choice for a specific phosphate binder and whether this strategy will improve patient*s satisfaction.…
Primary Objective:- Determine the effect of 24 weeks of oral magnesium supplementation and/or the phosphate binder sucroferric oxyhydroxide on arterial wall stiffness in CKD patients, as measured by pulse wave velocity.Secondary Objectives:-…
