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 goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the off-target/non-specific effects of the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine in children.
This study is to develop AI-based models for the personalised prediction of treatment engagement and treatment outcomes in patients engaging in digital psychotherapy. A large, real-world dataset of patients in a digital psychotherapy program will be used to train AI algorithms. Responsible AI algorithms will be developed by describing, accounting for, and mitigating bias due to severity of mental disturbances in AI-based models, in addition to considering bias due to other sensitive attributes, such as gender, ethnicity, and socio-demographic status.
The purpose of this pre-approval access program is to give talquetamab monotherapy (treatment with single drug) to participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (a type of cancer that begins in plasma cells [white blood cells that produce antibodies] which has returned or difficult to treat) who have relapsed on or are refractory to all locally available and clinically appropriate treatment and who are not eligible for a clinical trial.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of non-invasive brain stimulation (the so-called transcranial direct current stimulation ; tDCS) combined with an active physiotherapy program on the multidimensional impact of pain in patients with Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP). The secondary objectives are to compare the effects of these interventions on fear of movement, psycho-emotional state, function, functional connectivity of the left dorsolaterla prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and erector spinae activity. Participants will perform: - 2 sessions including clinical assessments including questionnaires, brain activity assessment (with EEG), and back muscle activity assessment (with EMG) - 9 interventional sessions of active physiotherapy combined with active or sham tDCS during 3 weeks (3 per week). Investigators will compare active tDCS with sham tDCS (non active) to evaluate if active tDCS is more effective than sham tDCS.
Our study is the first to use genipin, a naturally occurring collagen cross-linking agent, as a therapeutic agent to treat superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) injuries in horses. The promising approach of intratendinous genipin injection and tendon mechanical enhancement could be a viable alternative to current therapies for SDFT injuries.
This study is designed as a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan (LNP023) in idiopathic immune complex mediated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
The consumption of dark chocolate (DC) has antihypertensive (3) and anti-inflammatory effects. Some studies also suggest that dark chocolate may also have cardiovascular benefits, but its physiological effects on the kidneys have not been studied in detail. In this randomized, single-blinded, controlled, monocentric cross-over study we will investigate whether the ingestion of a single dose of dark chocolate (g/kg, max 70g) leads to alterations in renal perfusion and blood pressure two hours after its consumption in healthy volunteers and patients suffering from chronic kidney disease. The Doppler-ultrasound assessed renal resistive index (RRI) will be used at baseline and two hours after chocolate consumption as an indirect measure of renal perfusion. Blood pressure and heart rate will be measured continuously using the Finapres® NOVA (Finapres Medical Systems, Enschede, The Netherlands) throughout the Doppler ultrasound examination. In order to compare the effects of dark chocolate with those obtained with white chocolate, participants will undergo a similar sequence of exames after the consumption of white chocolate.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate that milvexian is superior to placebo, in addition to standard-of-care, in reducing the risk of major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) (the composite of cardiovascular [CV] death, myocardial infarction [MI], and ischemic stroke).
The objective is to evaluate the impact of a pharmacist-led therapeutic education intervention on the knowledge of hospitalized heart failure patients. The knowledge score on heart failure disease and medications will be compared between two groups one month after hospitalization. The intervention group will receive a therapeutic education intervention and usual hospital care and the control group will receive only usual hospital care.
The goal of this clinical study is to test feasibility and effectiveness of a personalized, home-based motor-cognitive training program in community-dwelling older adults with prescription for rehabilitation. Participants will conduct a motor-cognitive intervention program which is based on exergames (=interactive video games controlled by body movements), added to usual care for 2 weeks in rehabilitation centers (face-to-face supervision) and for 10 weeks at home (remotely supervised). Researchers will compare an intervention group and a control group to compare possible effects of the home-based study intervention to the effect of usual care alone on cognition, physical functions, and balance confidence.
