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.

Mounting evidence suggests that closed-loop brain-training, commonly known as neurofeedback (NFB), may represent a new therapeutic opportunity for patients with Attentional Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), which manifests as difficulties with attention and inhibitory control. In this context, the investigators have focused on an attention-enhancing form of NFB based on the EEG alpha rhythm, known to influence sensory detection and attention. In light of recent evidence showing that both attention and impulsivity can be modified with a single-session of alpha-NFB, the objective is to determine whether these effects stabilize in the long-term, after multiple, daily sessions of training at home. A short- (single-session) and a long-term (multi-session) experimental design will be used to collect EEG, behavioral, and clinical data pre-to-post NFB. The single-blind study will recruit 48 adult ADHD participants randomly assigned to either NEUROFEEDBACK or CONTROL groups. Each participant will undergo individual at home sessions of 45-minute video-replay of popular television (TV) series while recording their 1-channel EEG (30 sessions, 5 sessions/week, 6 weeks total). In the NEUROFEEDBACK group, self-regulation of alpha rhythm will be reflected in the dynamically varying opacity of the video-replay window, i.e. the window would turn lighter/darker and reveal/obscure video content during episodes of low/high alpha amplitude, respectively. In the CONTROL group, the recording will be passive without real-time EEG neurofeedback (i.e. constant brightness and volume). Before and after at home training, each participant will have two visits in the lab: (1) complete clinical and neuropsychological evaluation and (2) EEG session including resting state and task-related EEG before and after a short NFB intervention (30 minutes). For the CONTROL group participants, the latter will be replaced by a sham intervention utilizing non-contingent feedback. Given that stronger alpha rhythmicity is associated with increases in inhibitory/excitatory balance, it is expected that alpha-NFB (i) will homeostatically normalize alpha rhythm power and (ii) the degree of normalization will be a dimensional predictor of individual improvement in behavioral and clinical measures of executive function, impulsivity and inattention. These results should lay the foundation for building neurocognitive treatments, by harnessing neuroplasticity mechanisms intrinsic to the brain.
Participants in this study will have diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back or not gotten better with treatment. The trial will study whether brentuximab vedotin plus two drugs works better to treat this type of cancer than the two drugs alone. Participants will be randomly assigned to get either brentuximab vedotin or placebo. The placebo will look like brentuximab vedotin, but has no medicine in it. Since the study is "blinded," participants and their doctors will not know whether a participant gets brentuximab vedotin or placebo. All participants in the study will get rituximab and lenalidomide. These are drugs that can be used to treat DLBCL.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal inherited disease in Caucasian populations. To improve survival, it is essential to understand the development, progression and treatment of CF lung disease throughout early childhood. Therefore the overall objective is to prospectively assess the clinical utility of novel and non-invasive measuring methods, namely Multiple Breath Washout and functional lung MRI in the longitudinal clinical surveillance of patients with CF and compare the results to those of healthy controls.
The primary objective of this study is to determine if left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) with the WATCHMAN FLX device is a reasonable alternative to non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
So far, there is no data available on treatment of patients with early-stage hormone receptor (HR) positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-overexpressed/amplified breast cancer, who completed adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy less than one year ago, in the clinical routine setting. ELEANOR - designed as a prospective, longitudinal, non-interventional study (NIS) - will investigate real-world use of neratinib and its treatment management in patients with HR-positive, HER2-overexpressing/amplified breast cancer stage I-III having completed adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy less than one year ago. Data from this study will contribute to a deeper understanding and characterization of the everyday use of neratinib in a broader patient population in the German and Austrian routine setting.
TAK-981 is being tested in combination with pembrolizumab to treat participants who have select advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study aims are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of TAK-981 in combination with pembrolizumab. Participants will be on this combination treatment for 21-day cycles. They will continue with this treatment for up to 24 months or until participants meet any discontinuation criteria.
A phase 3 double blind, placebo controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of AL001 in participants at risk for or with frontotemporal dementia due to heterozygous mutations in the progranulin gene.
The purpose of this proof of concept study is to provide COVID-19 convalescent plasma to patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 and assess: - the titer of anti-COVID-19 antibodies in the donors and in the patients before and after treatment; - the in-depth analysis of immunological parameters in the donors and in recipient before and after treatment; - the impact of plasma transfusion on the reduction of viral load and inflammation - safety and tolerability - clinical efficacy
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn whether the study medicine (called lorlatinib) is safe and effective for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that is caused by an abnormal anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene. This study is seeking participants whose lung cancer has progressed after receiving either alectinib or ceritinib as their first treatment. Participants will take part in this study for up to approximately 4 years, depending on when the study is completed and how their cancer responds to the study treatment. They will take lorlatinib orally (by mouth) once daily. Participants will visit the study site about every six weeks to meet with the study team. During these visits, the study team will monitor the safety and effects of lorlatinib.
