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.
Thiazides and thiazide-like diuretics are one of the five major classes of antihypertensive drugs. This study is to investigate whether urinary PGE2 concentration at baseline (prior to thiazide initiation) is associated with the development of TIH within the first four weeks of treatment.
This retrospective, monocentric study aims to examine risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage in women with histologically verified placenta accreta. Women with histologically verified placenta accreta are divided into two groups: women with normal blood loss (BV < 500 ml) versus women with increased blood loss (BV ≥ 500 ml). The clinical data of pregnant women with histologically verified placental disorders, who gave birth in the Women's Clinic University Hospital Basel (USB) between 1986 and 2019, are compared with each other.
This retrospective single-centre study aims to examine the success rate of concomitant surgical ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with an up to eight years follow-up period. Moreover, the focus of this study was to identify variables which predict freedom from AF, such as the type of AF, lesion set performed, energy source used and the patient's characteristics.
The aim of this study is thus to assess the effect of a chewing gum containing fibres on body weight, metabolism and the oral and intestinal microbiomes in a population of obese children.
Aortic valve sclerosis (aortic valve thickening and calcification without pressure gradient) is one of the most common valvular abnormalities in the Western world. Per year, about 1.8-1.9% of these patients develop aortic valve stenosis which will eventually be treated by TAVI (Transcatheter aortic valve implantation). The purpose of this study is to collect and monitor ongoing safety and performance clinical data of the ACURATE neo2™ aortic bioprosthesis and the ACURATE neo2™ transfemoral delivery system, hereafter referred to as the ACURATE neo2™ and transfemoral delivery system in the context of an observational investigator initiated trial (IIT).
The purpose of this study is to assess the link between sleep and the clearance of waste products from the brain. This will be assessed in a group of healthy older adults.
Master protocol: The goal of this master clinical study is to test how well the study drug, brexucabtagene autoleucel, works in participants with rare B-cell malignancies: relapsed/refractory Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (r/r WM) (Substudy A - no longer recruiting), relapsed/refractory Richter transformation (r/r RT) (Substudy B), relapsed/refractory Burkitt lymphoma (r/r BL) (Substudy C and relapsed/refractory hairy cell leukemia (r/r HCL) (Substudy D - no longer recruiting).
The purpose of this study is to confirm the perioperative and early postoperative safety and clinical performance of the Dexter Robotic System (Dexter Surgical System, Model DM-L6).
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal degeneration caused by one of several mistakes in the genetic code. Such mistakes are called mutations. The mutations cause degeneration of rod photoreceptors which are responsible for vision in dim illumination resulting in night blindness. After rod photoreceptors are eliminated, gradual degeneration of cone photoreceptors occurs resulting in gradual constriction of side vision that eventually causes tunnel vision. Oxidative stress contributes to cone degeneration. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) reduces oxidative stress and in animal models of RP it slowed cone degeneration. In a phase I clinical trial in patients with RP, NAC taken by month for 6 months caused some small improvements in two different vision tests suggesting that long-term administration of NAC might slow cone degeneration in RP. NAC Attack is a clinical trial being conducted at many institutions in the US, Canada, Mexico, and Europe designed to determine if taking NAC for several years provides benefit in patients with RP.
This is a multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of ABX464 50mg and 25mg administered once daily (QD) as maintenance therapy in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies [corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)] and/or advanced therapies [biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors]. This study is the maintenance phase of both previous induction studies ABX464-105 and ABX464-106. All eligible subjects who have completed either one of the induction studies above mentioned, will be given the opportunity to take part in the present ABX464-107 maintenance study and will be randomized to either a double blind, placebo-controlled part (Part #1) or allocated to ABX464 50mg or 25mg open label treatment arms (Part #2) depending on their clinical response at the end of induction. This study consists of a 44-week treatment phase and a 28-days follow-up period consisting in the End of Study (EOS) visit.
