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 demonstrate the efficacy and safety of secukinumab 300 milligram (mg) and 150 mg administered subcutaneously (s.c.) for 52 weeks in combination with prednisone tapered over 24 weeks in adult participants with PMR who have recently relapsed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DOR/ISL in adult participants with HIV-1 who had been previously treated with DOR/ISL in earlier clinical studies. There are no formal hypotheses to be tested in this study.
The primary purpose of Phase 1 (dose escalation) of this study is to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Debio 0123 in combination with temozolomide (TMZ) (Arm A) and in combination with TMZ and radiotherapy (RT) (Arm B) and to characterize the safety and tolerability of these combinations in adult participants with glioblastoma (GBM). The primary purpose of Phase 2 of this study is to assess the efficacy of Debio 0123 at the RP2D in combination with TMZ, compared to standard of care (SOC) in adult participants with GBM.
With this study, the investigators want to investigate whether computerized speech analysis can be used to reliably and objectively detect motor, emotional, and cognitive fluctuations in Parkinson's disease patients.
The aim of this study is to summarize the current level of evidence on the prevalence of root caries in elderly population, evaluate the prevalence of root caries in elderly patients living in Canton Bern, Switzerland and to analyze the association between the data collected with demographic and relevant socioeconomic factors, provide relevant long-term clinical, radiographic and oral health related outcomes and to establish a pivotal reference in treatment of elderly patients by means of non-operative root caries treatment.
The goal of this observational study consists of performing cluster analysis to decipher underlying disease mechanisms of type 1 diabetes in children and young adults. To this end, we will combine clinical, laboratory, genetic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic datasets of an extensively phenotyped cohort of children and young adults with type 1 diabetes. We will also assess the risk for cardiovascular diseases in this most vulnerable diabetes cohort.
This study aims to measure in vivo the spinal cord gray and white matter in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and healthy persons that match the patients' age and sex using rAMIRA imaging, a novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) method. Patients and healthy control persons prospectively undergo MRI examinations, clinical examinations including assessments of disability, and tests of muscle force using hand held dynamometry. Serum markers of neuro-axonal injury are also assessed. Examinations for patients and healthy control persons are scheduled every six months over a time span of two years.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Ruxolitinib cream in participants with Prurigo Nodularis (PN).
Urinary tract hardware such as pig-tail catheters are are frequently used for management of urolithiasis or other obstructive pathologies. They are readily colonized by urogenital flora leading to asymptomatic bacteriuria. While asymptomatic bacteriuria is not per se a problem for patients, it may lead to severe infections in the context of hardware manipulation leading to mucosal damage (e.g. catheter exchanges or stone extraction). Such interventions therefore warrant an antibiotic prophylaxis. However, bacteria rapidly form biofilms on hardware; aside of fluoroquinolones, antibiotics have limited anti-biofilm activity. Furthermore, the widespread use of antibiotics has lead to resistant strains. Hence, novel antimicrobial strategies are needed. Recently, metabolism-based potentiation of aminoglycoside has shown high antimicrobial activity against persistent forms of bacteria such as biofilms in the context of murine catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Because of the highly favorable pharmacodynamic profile of aminoglycoside in the urinary tract and the metabolic potentiation, aminoglycosides can be reduced to levels with minimal toxicity. UROPOT aims to compare the efficacy of potentiated aminoglycoside to standard of care for (i) prophylaxis of asymptomatic bacteriuria during urinary hardware manipulations with mucosal trauma (Pig-tail catheter exchange, stone surgery with prior in-dwelling catheter, etc.) and (ii) sustained microbiological eradication through antibiofilm activity. UROPOT will compare the rate of post-interventional urinary tract infections (primary outcome). It will also assess safety and eradication potency (microbiological outcome).
This prospective randomized simulator-based single-blind trial aimed to investigate the effects of initial cues and history taking skills on diagnostic accuracy
