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.
Investigation of EGF-Receptor Downregulation by topical EGF (dermal cream) exposition.
This in situ study aims to investigate - the protective potential of milk and fluoridated milk on erosive wear of enamel - the protective potential of milk and fluoridated milk on erosive wear of dentin - to compare to protective potential of milk and fluoridated milk with products containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate - to compare the protective potential of milk and fluoridated milk with a fluoridated toothpaste or stannous-chloride containing fluoride solution (SnCl2/AmF/NaF)
The purpose of this study is to assess the non-inferiority of a multidose GnRH antagonist (cetrorelix) regimen to a GnRH agonist (triptorelin) long protocol in young infertile women undergoing ovarian stimulation with Pergoveris 150 I.U./75 I.U. (r-hFSH/ r-hLH) for ICSI treatment because of male infertility. To assess the efficacy of ovarian stimulation using either a GnRH antagonist (cetrorelix) or a GnRH agonist (triptorelin) long protocol in infertile women with good prognosis and to determine the safety of ovarian stimulation. Subsample analysis: in 10 patients of each of both arms, serum samples will be collected daily during the stimulation period and be stored frozen at -70 °C. The following hormone concentrations will be measured later in single assay batches: LH, FSH, oestradiol, progesterone, androstenedione, testosterone, inhibin A, inhibin B, AMH. Multinational, multicentre, open label, randomized, 2-arm parallel-group phase IV study. Eligible patients will be randomly allocated to one of the two groups: the agonist group will receive Decapeptyl® 0.1 mg (triptorelin) starting in the mid-luteal phase of the natural cycle until downregulation until the day of ovulation induction. The antagonist group will receive cetrorelix 0.25 mg from stimulation day 6 to ovulation induction. In both groups, Pergoveris® 150 I.U./75 I.U. (r-hFSH/r-hLH) will be used for ovarian stimulation from cycle day 2 to ovulation induction.
Study evaluates the new technique MyoVista™ iECG sensitivity and ability to predict myocardial diseases, comparing iECG results with Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography findings
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and Oceania. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of placebo and activated recombinant human factor VII in patients having undergone allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplantation.
Rationale: Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harbouring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations (del19 or L858R) show an impressive progression-free survival between 9 and 14 months when treated with erlotinib. However, the presence of EGFR mutations can only imperfectly predict outcome. The investigators hypothesize that progression-free survival could be influenced both by the pretreatment EGFR T790M mutation and by components of DNA repair pathways. The investigators propose a model of treatment whereby patients with EGFR mutations (single or with T790M) can attain a benefit with longer overall PFS when treated with erlotinib plus bevacizumab. When the patients are grouped by BRCA1 mRNA levels and T790M the hypothesis is that the combination of erlotinib plus bevacizumab can improve the PFS in all subgroups.
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is associated with inadequate drainage of the aqueous humor via the trabecular meshwork towards the systemic circulation. This may lead to an increase in IOP and may damage the optic nerve. The purpose of glaucoma management is to lower IOP in order to prevent progression of the optic neuropathy and subsequent visual loss. Firstline treatment usually includes IOP-lowering drug therapy. However, if IOP remains uncontrolled and/or the optic nerve damage progresses despite controlled IOP, surgery may be indicated. Deep sclerectomy with a collagen implant (DSCI) is a non-penetrating surgical procedure for the treatment of open angle glaucoma that allows the enhancement of the aqueous outflow. This forms the rationale to conduct this prospective, open label study to assess the 24-hour IOP fluctuation profile recorded with Triggerfish® in patients with POAG before and after DSCI.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the intake of Vitamin D has a positive effect on walking ability of patients with peripheral artery occlusive disease. Skeletal muscle fibers change morphology in peripheral artery occlusive disease. In patients with Vitamin D-deficiency there are also changes of skeletal muscle fibers. The investigators have the hypothesis that patients with peripheral artery occlusive disease with subsequent changes of muscle fibers morphology of calf muscles might take profit of the administration of Vitamin D in combination with training.
The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of mycoplasma hominis, ureaplasma urealyticum, neisseria gonorrhea, and chlamydia trachomatis in women with overactive bladder symptoms, and to correlate these findings with cystoscopic and urodynamic findings.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pomalidomide in the treatment of patients with systemic sclerosis with interstitial lung disease.
