A European multicentre double-blind placebo-controlled phase III trial of nilvadIpine in mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease (NILVAD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an ever-increasing public health concern among the aging population and is the most common form of dementia affecting more than 15 million individuals worldwide and around 5 million Europeans. The direct and indirect costs of AD and other dementias amount to more than €440,000 million each year (www.alz.org, 2010).Even modest therapeutic advances that delay disease onse ...

Novel biomimetic strategy for bone regeneration (INNOVABONE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

The importance of developing novel approaches for bone repair is underscored by the heavy burden on health care costs and patient suffering caused by traumatic, osteoporotic and osteolytic metastatic bone lesions. To address these health challenges, we will develop optimally performing bioinspired biomaterials mimicking the natural physiological processes underlying bone repair. Our overall approa ...

European Network of National Schizophrenia Networks Studying Gene-Environment Interactions (EU-GEI)

Start date: May 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

The aim of EU-GEI is to identify the interactive genetic, clinical and environmental determinants involved in the development, severity and outcome of schizophrenia (EU-GEI, Schiz. Res. 2008; 102: 21-6). In order to identify these interactive determinants, EU-GEI will employ family-based, multidisciplinary research paradigms, which allow for the efficient assessment of gene-environment interaction ...

IMplementation of quality indicators in PAlliative Care sTudy (IMPACT)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

"New knowledge is not necessarily readily applied in medicine, even when there is evidence of its effectiveness. As a result of the gap between knowing and doing, policy makers, professional care providers, patients and their families have benefited too little from new developments. Implementation research has developed models for stepwise implementation but it is still unclear which strategies ar ...

European clinical research infrastructures network for clinical trials and biotherapy - preparatory phase for the infrastructure (ECRIN-PPI)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"European clinical research needs an integrated and distributed infrastructure able to provide efficient support to multinational clinical trials, taking advantage of the European population and competencies, unlocking latent expertise and patients scattered across the EU member states. ECRIN (European Clinical Research Infrastructures Network) is designed to bridge the fragmentation of clinical r ...

Reflecting the Positive diveRsities of European prIorities for reSearch and Measurement in end of life cAre (PRISMA)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2011,

"There is little coordination in undertaking research in end of life care. This is due to lack of agreement on what constitutes “end of life” cancer care, no information on public or clinical priorities for achieving a “good death” in a culturally diverse Europe, few appropriate measures of quality, and a lack of established best practice. “PRISMA” aims to deliver an integrated programme to coordi ...
