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 study is randomized clustered pragmatic trial whose objective is to decrease unnecessary antibiotic prescription in adult patients with lower respiratory tract infection managed at primary care level in Switzerland, using a simple algorithm based on 2 point of care test results
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the effects of Fluvastatin on brown adipose tissue activity in humans.
The ATR (ataxia-telangiectasia and Rad3 related protein) inhibitor BAY1895344 is developed for the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumors and lymphomas. The purpose of the proposed trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BAY1895344, and to identify the maximum tolerated dose of BAY1895344 that could be safely given to cancer patients. Further, the response of the cancer to the treatment will be determined.
In 22% of patients with elevated Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) MRI guided biopsy will not detect significant prostate cancer (PCA) (defined as either: Gleason score (GS) ≥ 3+4 or tertiary pattern 5, or final stage ≥ pT3a and/or pN1). Therefore this study evaluates the ability of [68Ga]PSMA PET/MRI to detect and localize significant primary PCA to accurately direct prostate needle biopsy using the Gleason score from the histology of the core biopsies as standard of truth.
The primary objective is to evaluate changes in fatigue and physical activity (step counts) before and after rehabilitation in patients with MS (EDSS 3-6.5). The association of changes in fatigue and physical activity will also be analyzed for disease severity (EDSS), age, emotional status (depression) of the participants.
This is an EU sponsored trial and independent of the US trial registered under Clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT02009644. The purpose of this registry is to gather clinical data on the safety and performance of the TREO Stent-Graft in patients with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms. The registry is part of TREO's EU post-market surveillance plan providing long-term systematic clinical follow-up.
Two high-dose chemotherapy regimens (melphalan alone versus the combination of melphalan and bendamustine) used for conditioning treatment before autologous stem cell transplantation will be compared in a 1:1 randomization in myeloma patients. The experimental arm is the bendamustine and melphalan (BenMel) combined regimen. The melphalan alone (Mel) regimen is the control (standard) treatment. Despite remarkable progress using novel agents both for induction before ASCT as well for maintenance after ASCT, definite cure in myeloma patients remains exceptional due to residual disease escaping intensive treatment. The aim of the study is to show an improvement of the rate of complete Remission 60 days after ASCT in myeloma patients from 50% with melphalan alone to 65% with the combination of bendamustine and melphalan.
The trial assess the maximum tolerated dose of a single-dose of Brentuximab Vedotin added to standard BeEAM chemotherapy (comprising Bendamustin, Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide and Melphalan) before autologous stem cell transplantation in CD30+ malignant lymphomas.
Decompressive craniectomy is frequently used to treat increased intracranial pressure or an intracranial mass effect. Trephined Syndrome describes a neurological deterioration, which is attributed to a large craniectomy. The symptomatology is varied but includes headache, aggravation of a hemisyndrome or cognitive disorders, often has an orthostatic component and improves or disappears with cranioplasty. The incidence of Trephined Syndrome has been reported between 7% and 26%. However, it might be underestimated if the course of cognitive functions before and after cranioplasty were insufficiently documented.
This study seeks to determine the clinical characteristics of young ESUS patients using diagnostic criteria of the Cryptogenic Stroke / ESUS International Working Group, and to determine the rates of stroke recurrence, death, and hospital readmission in a contemporary cohort of young ESUS patients during follow-up of up to 18 months.
