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.
Crohn's disease (CD) is an incurable chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. This study will assess how safe and effective risankizumab is in treating moderately to severely active CD in real world. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Risankizumab is a drug approved for the treatment of CD. All study participants will receive risankizumab as prescribed by their study doctor in accordance with approved local label. Approximately 1000 participants will be enrolled worldwide. Participants will receive risankizumab as prescribed by their physician according to their routine clinical practice and local label. Participants will be followed for up to 36 months. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Study visits may be conducted on-site or virtually as per standard of care.
In patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) minimal evidence is available for invasive hemodynamic monitoring and no evidence for tools able to measure traditionally invasive parameters non-invasively for peri-procedural guidance and post-interventional management. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a non-invasive hemodynamics monitoring tool called ClearSight for monitoring during TAVI procedures compared with standard invasive measurements.
Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) occurs as a consequence of the rapid destruction of malignant cells, spontaneously and/or in response to cytotoxic agents and immunotherapies. TLS is a feature of highly proliferative diseases with heavy tumor burden, such as high-grade non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL, typically Burkitt's lymphoma). We evaluated fractionating first rituximab dose to prevent TLS in a real-life B-cell NHL cohort of patients treated at University Hospital of Geneva between 2010 and 2020.
SENSE-II/AROUSE is a prospective, multicenter registry for patients treated for SE. The primary objective is to document patients and SE characteristics, treatment modalities, EEG features, and outcome of consecutive adults admitted fir SE treatment in each of the participating centers and to identify predictors of outcome and refractoriness.
The electrical activity of the brain will be studied using EEG on healthy young adults. The frontal alpha asymmetry (FAA) of the participant will be measured during three conditions: presence of a dog, presence of a replica dog, presence of a plant. The researchers hypothesize that the activity in the left frontal hemisphere is greater than in the right during an animal-assisted intervention compared to the control conditions.
To evaluate the safety, tolerability, and DLTs and determine the MTD and/or RDE(s) of INCA33890 in participants with select advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This retrospective monocentric study aims to investigate whether a low muscle mass at ICU admission and its loss over the ICU stay predicts mortality, and in what proportion we can counteract it by nutritional support.
Significant advances in dedicated materials and techniques along with increased operator experience led to a significant increment in procedural success rate of peripheral endovascular interventions, exceeding 90% in expert hands with reported low procedural complication rates. However, there are still lack of data on procedural outcomes, in-hospital complications, and resource utilization on treatment of (complex) lesions in the femoral, popliteal and infrapopliteal artery in the real-world condition in Europe.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles are increasingly performed worldwide. Transvaginal oocyte pick-up (OPU) is a painful part of IVF. OPU in polyfollicular IVF is usually performed under sedation and pain relief. In natural cycle IVF or IVF with minimal stimulation OPU is possible without anesthesia. Mostly of the women reported experiencing mild to moderate pain when undergoing OPU without anesthesia. Nevertheless, there is a need for alternative pain treatment options during OPU to reduce the burden of IVF for patients. Virtual reality (VR) may have a role in acutely painful procedures as a non-pharmacological alternative. VR refers to the interactions between an individual and a computer-generated environment stimulating multiple sensory modalities. The immersive, entertaining effects of VR could be useful for redirecting the patient's attention away from painful treatment experiences and reducing anxiety, discomfort, or unpleasantness. Use of VR interventions has been studies in a wider range of medical treatment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare corresponding inter- and intraindividual pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles including assessments of safety & tolerability.
