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.
This is a phase II efficacy (indicates the capacity for beneficial change or therapeutic effect) and safety study of Dasatinib in patients with relapsed Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) following a Stem Cell Transplant (SCT) and who are not benefiting from other treatment, such as imatinib therapy. A relapse is when an illness that has seemed to be getting better, or to have been cured, comes back or gets worse again. A total of 50 patients ≥18 years of age will be registered on the trial.
The purpose of this trial is to determine if intravenous administration of the metal ion trapping agent DP-b99 up to 9 hours following acute ischemic stroke onset, and then for 3 additional days (4 consecutive days in total) is effective in improving long term outcome. Patients will be followed up for 3 months after the stroke.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of robotic-assisted locomotor therapy on improvements of functional gait parameters in ambulatory children with cerebral palsy.
This study assessed the initial efficacy and safety of canakinumab over a 4 week period in patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) having a flare. Response to treatment will be according to the adapted American College of Rheumatology(ACR)Pediatric 30 criteria at Day 15.
The objective of this study is to compare two different strategies of disease management in heart failure patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy devices 1. Remote monitoring with CareLink Network System 2. Standard management of the disease by means of scheduled routine in-patient follow-ups; and to demonstrate that the remote monitoring strategy is superior to the standard strategy, both in terms of clinical effectiveness and total healthcare system utilization.
The purpose of this study is to monitor the performance of a large metal-on-metal bearing from the DePuy ASR™ System in the treatment of patients with hip joint disease requiring hip resurfacing surgery or a total hip replacement. Patients who enter the study will be evaluated at regular intervals following hip surgery using patient, clinical and x-ray assessments. The Study was terminated with effect from 30th November 2011 following the completion of 2 year follow up assessments for those patients remaining in the study. Please note that prior to this decision DePuy voluntarily recalled the ASR products on 24 August 2010. Additional information regarding this voluntary recall and the follow-up of patients affected by the recall can be found at the following links http://www.mhra.gov.uk/Publications/Safetywarnings/MedicalDeviceAlerts/CON155761 and http://www.depuy.com/countries_list.
This is a study in patients with chemotherapy induced anemia receiving multi-cycle chemotherapy for the treatment of stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that overall survival (OS) is not worse in participants on darbepoetin alfa treated to a hemoglobin ceiling of 12.0 g/dL compared to participants treated with placebo.
This study, 28851, is a long-term follow-up study of subjects enrolled in ATAMS study 28063, the aim of which is to monitor the safety and tolerability of atacicept administered for up to 5 years to subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). This extension study consists of two parts. Part A will be double blind and Part B will be open label. During Part A subjects initially randomized to atacicept will continue to receive the atacicept dose to which they have been randomized in study 28063 (ATAMS) once a week sub cutaneously (under the skin). Subjects randomized to placebo in ATAMS will receive atacicept at 150 mg once a week sub cutaneously during Part A. Once the results of ATAMS are available and the atacicept dose with the best benefit / risk ratio has been identified, all subjects will be switched to this dose and will continue the extension study open-label (Part B). Throughout the study, subjects and investigators will remain blinded with respect to intial and part A treatment allocation/dose.
Study will assess PF-00489791 efficacy and safety in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
This is a randomized, open-label, active-control, multicenter Phase 2 study of VELCADE+fludarabine in comparison with rituximab+fludarabine in subjects with relapsed advanced follicular lymphoma. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between the 2 treatment arms (55 subjects per arm).
