The purpose of the study is to test whether a centre-wide policy of incremental antibiotic therapy will reduce arrhythmia device infection in patients undergoing arrhythmia device procedures compared to a policy of conventional antibiotic…
Primary: To demonstrate the superiority of secukinumab in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis based on the proportion of PASI 90 responders at Week 16, compared to ustekinumab.Secondary: To demonstrate the superiority of secukinumab in…
The objective of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of brodalumab, compared with ustekinumab and placebo, for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
The primary objectives of this study are to assess whether 80 mg ixekizumab every 2 weeks (Q2W) is:• noninferior to ustekinumab at Week 12 in the treatment of patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis as measured by proportion of patients…
Primary objective: 1. To evaluate the effect of ustekinumab in patients with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (Hurley II-III), measured by disease specific score systmes: Sartorius/HS-LASI and PGA 2. To evaluate possible changes in scores…
To determine the minimal biologic drug serum trough concentration required to maintain stable disease activity in patientswith moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.

To provide high level of evidence that omitting perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis does not increase the postoperative infection rate, in patients with acute calculous cholecystitis undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
In light of the above, our objective is to study the (cost-) effectiveness of a single intravenous gift of antibiotic prophylaxis with a firstgeneration cephalosporin prior to implant removal following surgical fixation of foot, ankle and/or lower…
To investigate whether the dose of biologics can be reduced in patients with psoriasis with stable disease: is dose reduction non-inferior to the current practice regarding clinical effectiveness? Secondary aims are: to investigate what influence…
The hypothesis is that a switch from intravenous to oral antimicrobial therapy is non-inferior to standard intravenous therapy in patients with low-risk SAB. Therefore, the primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate, that oral switch therapy (…

To analyze the difference in fT>MIC at the target site and infection rate for a single dose of 1 and 2g of cefazolin.
A *treat to target* strategy has been advocated as an optimized management approach for various diseases, by which strictly defined treatment targets facilitate decision making in clinical practice. Key to the success of this treatment strategy is…
