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 evaluate the efficacy of abrilumab as measured by the proportion of participants achieving Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) remission (CDAI < 150) after treatment for 8 weeks.
Comparison of the ability of a new automated ventilatory mode named Intellibrain to maintain capnia and oxgen partial pressure within predefined ranges in comparison to the control of capnia and oxgen partial pressure obtained by using standard controlled ventilation modes in brain injured patients. Comparison of the numbers of alarms and required settings modifications observed with each ventilatory mode.
1. To determine the incidence, prevalence and long-term outcome of patients with SFTP in the German spoken part of Switzerland. 2. To define the role of immunohistochemical and molecular techniques, such as immunostaining, FISH and mutational analysis regarding their ability to predict malignant behavior in terms of prediction of overall survival and disease-free survival.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of abrilumab on induction of remission in adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis after 8 weeks of treatment as assessed by a total Mayo Score ≤ 2 points, with no individual subscore > 1 point.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of physical activity in obese and nonobese prepubertal children on: 1. biological stress responses during a psychosocial stress test 2. snacking and feeling of hunger in response to the same psychosocial stress test 3. the moderating factor of attachment on the biological stress responses and on snacking Children will be investigated on one study day during 3.5 hours.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Dynamic Locking Screws (DLS) used to stabilize the shaft component of distal femur fractures in comparison to standard locking screws (SLS). The hypothesis is that DLS will lead to better functional outcomes (WOMAC score) due to increased and more symmetrical callus formation and fewer non-unions.
Evaluation of Safety and Efficacy of Short time TNI Treatment in Patients with COPD and hypercapnia. Acute testing of oxygen demand using TNI vs. standard oxygen application in stable COPD patients with hypercapnia.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label trial of pimasertib versus dacarbazine aimed to confirm the activity of pimasertib in previously untreated subjects with N-Ras mutated locally advanced or metastatic malignant cutaneous melanoma by comparing the progression-free survival (PFS) of subjects treated with either pimasertib or dacarbazine and by getting a better understanding of the efficacy, safety, pharmacogenomics (PGx) and their relationship with pimasertib exposure.
An open label, prospective, non-randomized single arm study. Combination of two treatment modalities - HAI with FUDR and systemic chemotherapy with cisplatin and gemcitabine. Definition of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of intravenous gemcitabine in combination with intravenous cisplatin and intra-arterial FUDR. Definition of safety and toxicity of this combined regional and systemic treatment approach. Definition of the response rate after 3 months of hepatic intra-arterial chemotherapy with continuous infusion FUDR with or without ligation of the right or left portal vein, in combination with 3 months of systemic cisplatin and gemcitabine in patients with unresectable intrahepatic or hilar CCC. A total of 9-18 patients are required. 3-6 patients per dose level. A maximum of three dose levels (1 - 3) has been defined. Statistical Methodology: Traditional 3+3 dosing algorithm to find MTD. - Trial with medicinal product
In this multicenter study the investigators are going to evaluate the use of six different videolaryngoscopes in patients undergoing elective surgery requiring general anesthesia with intubation. The investigators are hypothesizing that these six videolaryngoscopes will succeed for intubation at first attempt in at least 90% of all cases using a difficult airway simulation with extrication collars. As gold standard, a standard Macintosh blade is being used. The study consists of 6 arms. Each arm includes 120 patients, sums up to a total of 720 patients.
