Analytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and Equipment

At Medisch Centrum Leeuwarden B.V., researchers are advancing diagnostic imaging and therapeutic technologies to improve patient care across multiple disease areas.

  • Tau PET imaging for dementia
  • Selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) after esophagectomy
  • Advanced biomarker assays for treatment monitoring

These initiatives support the hospital’s commitment to integrating cutting‑edge techniques into routine clinical practice.

Bacterial Infections and Mycoses

Clinical studies focus on innovative antimicrobial strategies to combat prosthetic joint infections and other hard‑to‑treat bacterial diseases.

  • Prosthetic joint infection treatment comparison
  • Targeted oral clindamycin monotherapy
  • Evaluation of rifampicin‑based regimens

The trials aim to reduce infection recurrence and enhance recovery for patients undergoing orthopedic procedures.

Cardiovascular Diseases

Investigators are testing novel agents to lower the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other vascular events, including lipid‑lowering RNA therapeutics and rapid‑action anti‑platelet drugs.

  • Inclisiran for major adverse cardiovascular events
  • Selatogrel self‑administration in acute myocardial infarction
  • Aspirin omission study in non‑ST‑segment elevation acute coronary syndrome
  • Primary prevention of ASCVD in high‑risk individuals

These trials, conducted at the Leeuwarden site, seek to improve long‑term cardiovascular outcomes and patient quality of life.

Digestive System Diseases

The center conducts trials on esophageal and gastric cancers, exploring combined chemoradiation, surgical adjuncts, and personalized treatment based on molecular profiling.

  • Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with bintrafusp alfa
  • Gastric adenocarcinoma pre‑operative regimen comparison
  • Selective decontamination after esophagectomy
  • MMRd high‑risk endometrial cancer adjuvant therapy

Research integrates surgical, systemic, and immunologic approaches to boost survival for gastrointestinal malignancies.

Hemic and Lymphatic Diseases

A broad portfolio of trials addresses blood‑cancer subtypes, evaluating targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and combination regimens to increase remission rates.

  • Acute myeloid leukemia with venetoclax‑cobicistat
  • IDH‑mutated AML/MDS with ivosidenib or enasidenib
  • FLT3‑mutated AML with gilteritinib or midostaurin
  • Relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma with tislelizumab
  • High‑grade B‑cell lymphoma with nivolumab consolidation

The site’s hematology program leverages precision medicine to improve survival for patients with complex hematologic malignancies.

Male Urogenital Diseases

Research includes a strategic trial evaluating the optimal duration of androgen‑receptor signalling inhibition in low‑volume metastatic prostate cancer.

  • Shortened 12‑month ARSI therapy versus continuous treatment
  • Assessment of disease control and toxicity
  • Quality‑of‑life outcomes in prostate cancer patients

Findings could redefine standard care by balancing efficacy with reduced side‑effects for men with prostate cancer.

Musculoskeletal Diseases

Studies target inflammatory spinal disorders and joint infections, aiming to reduce disease activity and improve functional status.

  • Filgotinib for axial spondyloarthritis
  • Prosthetic joint infection antibiotic strategies
  • Evaluation of SDD to prevent postoperative pneumonia
  • Patient‑reported outcomes in musculoskeletal trials

These investigations support comprehensive management of both autoimmune and infection‑related musculoskeletal conditions.

Neoplasms

A diverse array of oncology trials investigates novel immunotherapies, antibody‑drug conjugates, and combination regimens across solid tumours and lymphomas.

  • DA‑EPOCH‑R followed by nivolumab for high‑grade B‑cell lymphoma
  • Epcoritamab plus R‑CHOP in diffuse large B‑cell lymphoma
  • Atezolizumab consolidation in high‑risk DLBCL
  • Combination therapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
  • Targeted therapy for endometrial cancer with MMRd

Medisch Centrum Leeuwarden’s oncology unit strives to bring innovative treatments from bench to bedside for a wide spectrum of cancers.

Nervous System Diseases

Clinical work focuses on early detection of cognitive decline and prevention of recurrent cerebrovascular events through advanced imaging and therapeutic interventions.

  • Tau PET imaging for dementia diagnosis
  • Statin discontinuation versus continuation after stroke
  • Management of mild cognitive impairment
  • Assessment of ischemic stroke recurrence risk

The aim is to enhance diagnostic precision and optimize secondary prevention strategies for patients with neurological disorders.

Respiratory Tract Diseases

Trials evaluate biologic therapies and inhaled treatments to reduce exacerbations and improve lung function in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and small‑cell lung cancer.

  • Benralizumab for severe COPD with frequent exacerbations
  • Extensive‑stage small‑cell lung cancer combination therapy
  • Evaluation of respiratory outcomes in cancer patients
  • Biomarker‑guided therapy for lung disease

These studies aim to lessen disease burden and extend survival for individuals affected by serious respiratory conditions.
