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 main objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness, tolerability, and safety of tapentadol hydrochloride prolonged release in subjects suffering from severe chronic low back pain (LBP) who are taking WHO Step III analgesics and show lack of tolerability. This is a clinical effectiveness trial designed to establish a link between anticipated clinical outcomes and the clinical practice by means of selected measures of clinical and subject-reported outcome. The trial will compare the effectiveness of previous analgesic treatment (WHO Step III) with that of tapentadol hydrochloride prolonged release treatment during defined periods of evaluation.
Evaluation of heparin/edoxaban tosylate (DU176b) versus heparin/warfarin in preventing recurrence of blood clots in patients with acute symptomatic deep-vein blood clots in the legs and/or blood clots in the lungs.
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, Japan, Oceania, North America and South America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the safety and efficacy of turoctocog alfa (N8) in Haemophilia A patients. The trial is an extension to trials NN7008-3543 (start: March 2009, stop: September 2011) and NN7008-3545 (start: May 2010, stop: November 2011) and the pharmacokinetic trials NN7008-3600 (start: November 2010, stop: October 2011), NN7008-3893 (start: June 2011, stop: September 2011) and NN7008-4015 (start: August 2012, stop: March 2013).
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness, tolerability, and safety of tapentadol hydrochloride prolonged release in subjects suffering from severe chronic low back pain (LBP) who are taking either WHO Step I or Step II analgesics or no regular analgesics. This is a clinical effectiveness trial designed to establish a link between anticipated clinical outcomes and the clinical practice by means of selected measures of clinical and subject-reported outcome. The trial will compare the effectiveness of previous analgesic treatment (either WHO Step I or Step II analgesics or no regular analgesics) with that of tapentadol hydrochloride prolonged release (PR) treatment during defined periods of evaluation.
This study assesses the long-term safety and tolerability of dasatinib administered to patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia or Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia and experienced clinical benefit from treatment with dasatinib or imatinib in previous protocols.
The purpose of the study is two-fold. In Phase I (Protecta Clinical Study), system performance will be evaluated. In Phase II (PainFree SST), the inappropriate shock-free rate at one year of subjects implanted with a Medtronic Protecta implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) will be evaluated.
Patients with bipolar disorder are at increased risk of weight gain, which in turn, increases the risk for somatic disease and non-adherence to maintenance therapy. Therefore, interventions addressing weight gain are expedient for the management of this disorder. The investigators set out to evaluate the effects of a lifestyle intervention on body mass index, cardiovascular, glycemic and metabolic parameters in patients with bipolar disorder under mood stabilizing pharmacological treatment. 50 outpatients with bipolar disorder under mood stabilizing treatment participated in a randomized controlled trial (waiting control group N=24 and multimodal lifestyle intervention N=26). Each experimental group consisted of two cohorts. The intervention lasted five months and consisted of eleven group sessions and weekly fitness training. Body Mass Index (BMI), body weight as well as cardiovascular, glycemic and metabolic parameters were determined as baseline (March and September 2005) and after five (July 2005 and January 2006) and eleven months (January and July 2006).
Main purpose of the study: To comparatively assess the diagnostic performance of non invasive anatomical and functional imaging modalities to detect significant obstructive coronary artery disease as demonstrated at invasive coronary angiography and functional evaluation of coronary lesions (fractional flow reserve).
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and North America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the safety of monthly replacement therapy of recombinant factor XIII in patients with congenital FXIII deficiency. The trial continues until the product is commercially available, but an interim assessment will take place when all subjects have completed 52 weeks in the trial.
The investigators aim to explore the efficacy of [90Y-DOTA]-TOC and [177LuDOTA]-TOC therapy in advanced neuroendocrine cancer. Therefore, the investigators assess response, survival and long-term safety profile of systemic [90Y-DOTA]-TOC and [177LuDOTA]-TOC treatment in metastasized neuroendocrine cancer patients. Adverse events are assessed according to the criteria of the National Cancer Institute. Survival analyses are performed using multiple regression models.
