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.
Hypothesis: Based on available pharmacokinetic data from healthy volunteers we hypothesize that the administration of a cumulative dose of 210μg of the continuous erythropoietin receptor activator, Mircera® (Roche), during 3 months post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) does not result in hemoglobin (Hb) levels >15 g/dl in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) Design: Prospective, open label single center pilot study
This study is an extension to the study AC-058B201 and will investigate the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of ponesimod in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.
This prospective randomized study aims for determination whether focused simulator based laparoscopic camera training in novices can improve camera performance in an actual clinical situations in the same manner as traditional training in the OR does, especially considering efficient use of training time.
The purpose of this prospective randomised study is to investigate electrocardiographic alterations after intravascular injection of three different test solutions of bupivacaine and epinephrine in anaesthetised children up to 16 years of age.
Ambulance personnel often work in a dangerous environment and work related injuries of emergency medical staff have repeatedly been documented. However, only case reports are published and no data exist about the incidence and type of work related injuries of ambulance personnel. Aims: The primary aim of the study is to assess the incidence (number of new injuries per 100'000 emergency missions or per 1'000 flying hours) and type of work related injuries among prehospital emergency personal. The secondary aims are to identify risk factors associated with work related injuries and to compare the risk of injury to other groups of professionals such as hospital nurses, policemen or fire-fighters.
This study examines the effects of pioglitazone on renal sodium handling in subjects prone to insulin resistance, i.e. diabetic and/or hypertensive subjects.
The Global Anticoagulant Registry in the FIELD-Atrial Fibrillation (GARFIELD-AF Registry) is a non-interventional, observational study that characterized a global population of non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients. The registry was used to document global baseline characteristics, current treatment strategies and outcome measures. Characterisation of a number of AF sub-populations was also completed. GARFIELD-AF is an independent academic research initiative sponsored by the Thrombosis Research Institute (London, UK) and supported by an unrestricted research grant from Bayer AG (Berlin, Germany).
This extension study will assess the safety and efficacy of AIN457 versus placebo for maintaining uveitis suppression when reducing systemic immunosuppression
Visual assessment of diagnostic PET/CT (positron emission tomography/computed tomography) images obtained after a single intravenous injection of BAY86-9596 in patients with cancer and inflammation
Coffee and green tea are 2 widely consumed beverages. Both contain polyphenol antioxidant compounds (chlorogenic acids for coffee and catechins for tea). The bioavailability of catechins is somewhat known and has been referenced in the literature. However, bioavailability data from tea infusion is non-existent, even though it reflects better how consumers drink this beverage. In addition, bioavailability of coffee chlorogenic acids is less understood and no dose response study has been reported so far in the literature. Thus, there is a great need to understand and reinforce our knowledge on the bioavailability of coffee and tea polyphenol compounds.
