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.
This study assessed the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 2 doses of oral fingolimod (1.25 mg/day and 0.5 mg/day) compared to placebo in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS)
The activation of the knee extensors in adults after patella dislocation. The kneecap can dislocate due to an accident or also only due to an interior turn in the stretched knee joint out of its sliding bearing. E. Arendt (Arendt 2002) wrote an overview work, in which possible causes and working methods to the patella dislocation are discussed. Despite almost one hundred quotations the authors are not able find the causes and the possible treatment concepts. The study will examined healthy adults (25 female and 25 men) and 25 patients with patella dislocation by a routine applied clinical gait analysis and surface EMG (after the European SENIAM guidelines) iin the Laboratory for Gait Analysis Basel of the Children's University Hospital Basel. The combination of gait analysis and the surface EMG with Wavelet analysis may objectify possible reasons for a patella dislocation
Ranibizumab is derived from a murine monoclonal anti- vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibody and can penetrate through the many retinal cell layers following intravitreal injection. The present study is directed towards the assessment of ranibizumab administered on the same day in combination with verteporfin in patients with subfoveal CNV secondary to ARMD
An open-label, multi-center study to establish psoriasis control of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis with Raptiva therapy administered subcutaneously for 24 weeks.
Volatile anesthetics may provide some protection from myocardial ischemia, an effect called anesthetic preconditioning. In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, this preconditioning effect resulted in better cardiac performance, faster recovery and lower morbidity and mortality. The investigators will perform a prospective randomized multi-center study to compare volatile with total intravenous anesthesia in patients at a high cardiac risk who undergo major non-cardiac surgery.
Patients with CAD and diabetes mellitus have a better prognosis than patients with CAD and no diabetes mellitus. In acute coronary syndrome patients with an insulin therapy had a better survival than patients with oral antidiabetics. But there is not known wether perioperative therapy with insulin or oral antidiabetics is associated with higher risk for higher perioperative cardiac morbidity and mortality and worse long-term survival.
The long-term use of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) in patients who have received a kidney transplantation is associated with renal dysfunction and hypertension. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of replacing the calcineurin inhibitors by using basiliximab at monthly doses.
This study introduces a new optimization immunosuppressive regimen associating tacrolimus at a reduced dose and enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium at an increased dose in order to slow down renal function worsening and to prevent the progression of chronic allograft nephropathy, while maintaining the same efficacy, in maintenance renal transplant recipients.
The present study is designed to compare the response of choroidal blood flow to the hand-grip test in glaucoma patients with and without visual field progression.
This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of ranibizumab on retinal edema and visual acuity in patients with diabetic macular edema with center involvement.
