There are about 9403 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Switzerland. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of niraparib plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab as maintenance therapy in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have achieved stable disease (SD), partial response (PR), or complete response (CR) following completion of standard of care first-line platinum-based induction chemotherapy with pembrolizumab. The primary hypotheses are: participants with confirmed diagnosis of NSCLC could benefit from niraparib plus pembrolizumab versus placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to Progression-free survival (PFS) and Overall survival (OS).
Standard of care for Extensive-Stage Disease (ED) Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) as first-line treatment is 4 to 6 cycles of platinum based chemotherapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in combination with etoposide. However, the outcome of the disease remains poor with a median overall survival of approximately 10 months, mainly caused by rapid development of drug resistance. The risk of intrathoracic recurrences can be reduced and an improved 2-year survival can be achieved with the addition of thoracic radiotherapy (tRT). The main objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of tRT combined with maintenance durvalumab in SCLC after chemoimmunotherapy. Secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of tRT combined with maintenance durvalumab in SCLC after chemo-immunotherapy. For this trial durvalumab is the IMP. Patients will start with an induction phase (part 1): Patients will receive durvalumab in combination with carboplatin and etoposide for 4 cycles of 21 days. Patients with CR; PR or SD after the induction phase, will transfer to the maintenance phase (part 2): Patients will receive durvalumab treatment up to PD or max. 2 years, i.e. 26 maintenance cycles, in combination with tRT. Patients with PD after the induction phase will transfer to the follow-up phase: Patients will be followed up for 24 months, every 8 weeks.
To test the effectiveness and safety of Optune® given concomitantly with radiation therapy (RT) and temozolomide (TMZ) in newly diagnosed GBM patients, compared to radiation therapy and temozolomide alone. In both arms, Optune® and maintenance temozolomide are continued following radiation therapy.
Myelofibrosis (MF) is a rare blood cancer, notable for scarring of the bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside bones) and the spleen becoming larger. The purpose of this study is to assess safety and change in spleen volume when navitoclax is given in combination with ruxolitinib, compared to best available therapy, for adult participants with MF. Navitoclax is an investigational drug (not yet approved) being developed for the treatment of MF. Participants in this study will be randomly selected (like picking numbers out of a hat) to be in 1 of 2 treatment arms. Neither participants nor the study doctor will be able to pick which treatment arm a participants enters. In Arm A, participants will receive navitoclax in combination with ruxolitinib. In Arm B, participants will receive the best available therapy (BAT) for MF. Adult participants with a diagnosis of MF that came back or did not get better after earlier treatment will be enrolled. Approximately 330 participants will be enrolled in approximately 210 sites across the world. In Arm A, participants will receive navitoclax tablet by mouth once daily with by mouth ruxolitinib tablet twice daily. In Arm B, participants will receive the BAT available to the investigator. Participants will receive the study drug until they experience no benefit (determined by the investigator), participants cannot tolerate the study drugs, or participants withdraw consent. The approximate treatment duration is about 3 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood and bone marrow tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate superior efficacy of Xevinapant (Debio 1143) vs placebo when added to chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (LA-SCCHN).
TREOCAPA is a Phase II/III European Multicentre study concerning the prophylactic treatment by Acetaminophen of extremely preterm infant during the first five days after birth. The Phase II is a dose finding phase in order to assess the minimum effective dose regimen of acetaminophen for the closure of PDA for neonates with a gestational age less than 27 weeks This part of the study will be conducted in 11 NICUs, in 4 countries (France, UK, Finland and Denmark). The Phase III is The phase III is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled superiority trial, two arms in a 1:1 ratio, evaluating an increasing of 10% of the percentage of survival without severe morbidity at 36 weeks of post menstrual age. In the intervention arm, 20 mg/kg followed by 7.5 mg/kg quarter in die (QID) will be administered to the 27-28 weeks gestational age group (dosage confirmed through PK/PD data analysis from the previous Finnian study) and the dosage selected after the conclusion of the Phase II will be administered to the 23-26 weeks gestational age group. A group sequential design, with a total of 3 analyses (2 interim analyses and a final) and the O'Brien-Fleming alpha spending function is chosen for the trial. At the same time, a Bayesian sequential analysis is planned for safety endpoints
This registry will collect prospective and retrospective clinical data on patients treated with the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System outside of the Post Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study.
Patients with COVID-19 and hypoxaemic respiratory failure and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are treated with supplementary oxygen as a standard. However, quality of quantity evidence regarding this practise is low. The aim of the HOT-COVID trial is to evaluate the benefits and harms of two targets of partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) in guiding the oxygen therapy in acutely ill adult COVID-19 patients with hypoxaemic respiratory failure at ICU admission.
In this study researchers want to learn more about changes in visual acuity (clarity of vision) with a high dose treatment with Aflibercept (Eylea) in patients suffering from neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Neovascular AMD is an eye disease that causes blurred vision or a blind spot due to abnormal blood vessels that leak fluid or blood into the light sensitive lining inside the eye (retina). The fluid buildup causes the central part of the retina (macula) responsible for sharp, straight-ahead vision to swell and thicken (edema), which distorts vision.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of LXH254 combinations in previously treated unresectable or metastatic melanoma
