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.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of combination therapy with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) and lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) in participants with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer (CRC), glioblastoma (GBM), biliary tract cancers (BTC), or pancreatic cancer.
The study aims to describe a correlation between the nerve cross section and the sensory or motor block onset time. Therefore, different nerve cross sections with their Motor and sensory onset times are compared in order to find a correlation. In the case of discovering a correlation, this could be translated into clinical practice, where a more tailored and individualized approach to performing peripheral nerve blocks would be possible, thus lowering the risks of adverse events occurring.
This clinical food study aims to explore the effect of KB195, a novel mixture of oligosaccharides, on the metabolism of nitrogen by the microbiome in patients with urea cycle disorders (UCDs). This will be done using a stable isotope to assess nitrogen metabolism in the blood, urine, and stool. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of KB195 in patients with UCDs.
Single-center, open-label, sequential treatment study to investigate the influence of the combined P-glycoprotein and CYP3A4 inducer hypericum perforatum on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of rivaroxaban in healthy volunteers.
This is a prospective, observational study aiming at improving the understanding of the pathophysiology of metabolic disease. As inflammation has been recognized as a key characteristic of metabolic disease but its starting point is still unknown, the investigators' aim is to characterize intestinal macrophages from human gut biopsies taken in diagnostic endoscopies of the gastrointestinal tract or in bariatric surgeries for clinical reasons.
This is a registry study in children with achondroplasia, age 0-10 years, to be conducted at multiple clinical centers in several countries. Information collected will include in anthropometric characteristics, related symptoms, tests, & treatments Children's information will be collected in the registry for a maximum of 5 years.
Study D9108C00002 (NeoCOAST) is a platform study assessing the effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant durvalumab alone or in combination with novel agents in participants with resectable, early-stage (Stage I [>2cm] to IIIA) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Optimal prescribing of antimicrobials is becoming increasingly challenging because of the growing complexity of guidelines and constantly changing distribution of infectious pathogens. Prescribing antimicrobials appropriately according to local guidelines optimizes therapy for the individual patient and reduces the emergence of resistance. By adapting and evaluating a smartphone based app containing local guidelines we aim to study appropriate prescribing of antimicrobials by physicians in three hospitals (Netherlands, Sweden and Switzerland).
This trial is to evaluate two types of electrical muscle Stimulation (EMS) stimulation (low intensity "conventional stimulation" vs. high intensity "Russian" stimulation) of legs in comparison with a control group without EMS in a cohort of elderly patients with severe deconditioning after CHF decompensation.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and therapeutic options are limited. The rho kinase (ROCK) inhibitor Fasudil was shown to be neuroprotective, induced axonal regeneration and improved survival and behavioral outcome in models of ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of this phase IIa, multi-center and double-blind study is to analyze the safety, tolerability and efficacy of fasudil in two different doses compared to placebo in approximately 16 trial sites in Germany, France and Switzerland. Intravenous application of fasudil will be performed in 80 patients and placebo in 40 patients two times daily for 20 treatment days. The hypothesis is that fasudil is safe and well-tolerated and its application will significantly improve the clinical outcome in patients with ALS.
