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 primary objective of this study is to obtain implant survivorship and clinical outcome data for commercially available Zimmer Trabecular Metal Total Ankle implants used in primary or revision total ankle arthroplasty. The assessment will include implant survivorship and clinical performance measured by pain and function, quality of life data, radiographic parameters and survivorship.
Olaparib treatment in patients with germline BRCA1/2 mutations and high risk HER2 negative primary breast cancer who have completed definitive local treatment and neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of nivolumab administered alone versus bevacizumab in patients diagnosed with recurrent glioblastoma (a type of brain cancer, also known as GBM), and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of nivolumab administered alone or in combination with ipilimumab in patients with different lines of GBM therapy.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and immunogenicity of MTBVAC as a potential substitute for BCG vaccination.BCG vaccination has indeed demonstrated its major limitation in inducing protection against tuberculosis (TB). Novel vaccines are essential to fight against the current world epidemics in tuberculosis and resistance to anti-TB drugs.
This open label, randomised, controlled, multi-centre phase III study will assess the efficacy and safety of single agent olaparib vs standard of care based on physician's choice of capecitabine, vinorelbine or eribulin in metastatic breast cancer patients with gBRCA 1/2 mutations.
All patients undergoing laparoscopic visceral and gynecologic procedures using the combined bipolar and ultrasonic vessel sealing and dissection device Thunderbeat are entered in a prospective registry. Data will be analysed concerning the safe use of the instrument and perioperative blood loss.
It is assumed that an early palliative care structured by SENS (a systematic, problem-based assessment system) in addition to standard oncology care compared with standard oncology care alone relieves distress in patients with advanced cancer at the end of life. The primary objective of the trial is to determine the effectiveness of early palliative care intervention, structured by SENS (a systematic, problem-based assessment system) in addition to standard oncology care, compared with standard oncology care alone to relieve distress a) in patients with advanced cancer until death, and b) in caregivers. The secondary objectives are to determine whether the introduction of SENS improves quality of life, prolongs overall survival, ameliorates distress of caregivers, reduces health care costs and medical resource utilization (less aggressive treatment in the last weeks of life).
The investigators hypothesize that a low number of SCC in OTR will metastasize.
The study is a prospective, double arm, non-randomized, open label pilot trial, designed to study the safety, feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a medical device, the NovoTTF-100L concomitant with gemcitabine or concomitant with gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel, for front-line therapy of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The device is an experimental, portable, battery operated device for chronic administration of alternating electric fields (termed TTFields or TTF) to the region of the malignant tumor, by means of surface, insulated electrode arrays.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of experimental medication BMS-986016 administered alone and in combination with nivolumab in patients with solid tumors that have spread and/or cannot be removed by surgery. The following tumor types are included in this study: Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, bladder cancer, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, and melanoma, that have NOT previously been treated with immunotherapy. NSCLC and melanoma that HAVE previously been treated with immunotherapy.
