There are about 11304 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Denmark. 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.
In breast cancer patients treated by mastectomy and adjuvant post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) reconstruction is often delayed until 6 - 12 month after completion of chemotherapy and PMRT, due to high risk of complication. In this trial the safety of the delayed-immediate reconstruction method is tested, where a skin sparing mastectomy and reconstruction with silicone implant is performed at primary surgery to save the native skin for the final delayed reconstruction.
The use of thoracic ultrasound has expanded widely within the las couple of years, and several studies have proved a high diagnostic accuracy for many of the most common causes of respiratory failure and dyspnoea. The ultrasound scan is a bed-side, and dynamic examination, which demands sufficient theoretical and practical knowledge and competence by the operator, but so far, no studies have explored the effect of simulation-based training for gaining adequate competence compared to traditional hands-on training on healthy figurants. The aim of this study is to examine whether TUS training on a simulator is superior to training on healthy figurants. Secondly, to examine whether the choice of hands-on training has an effect on the number of examinations performed by the trainees from baseline to 4 months follow-up.
test if a food supplementation with GABA can improve insulin production capacity in type 1 diabetes patients by turning alfa cells into beta cells in accordance with mice and cell studies.randomised parallel study with placebo as control
The aim of the study is to 1. To describe the bone morphology in patients with reduced renal function and high or low parathyroid hormone (PTH) respectively. 2. To investigate if the non-invasive method 18-Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography (18F-PET) can describe the bone turnover and reflect the bone histomorphologic changes 3. To investigate if non-oxidized PTH reflects bone turnover
Study on patients with CNS infections.
Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is used for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (rCDI) as part of an quality improvement initiative and conducted within the framework of Center for Faecal Microbiota Transplantation at Aarhus University Hospital (CEFTA).
The risk of sensitization and contact dermatitis among workers exposed to epoxy resin systems (ERS) is high despite extensive preventive efforts, probably because skin exposure is often left unrecognized. The main objective of this project is to prevent epoxy-related dermatitis and sensitization, caused by working with ERS, by fluorescence visualization of exposure. In cooperation with global manufacturers of wind turbines, 250 lamination workers will be allocated to either an intervention or a control Group. The risk of dermatitis and sensitization will be compared. Skin exposure will be made visible by a fluorescent tracer added to the ERS. UVA-light will illuminate the skin of head, neck, arms and hands and the fluorescent areas will be recorded and quantified by a computer vision system. The intervention group will be shown the fluorescent areas on their skin, while the control group will not have this information. The intervention takes place daily for a period of 1 month, 4 times during the 2 year follow up period. All participants are patch tested, screened for dermatitis and atopy at start and end of follow up or at end of employment. The investigators also assess potential determinants for ERS exposure including working tasks and procedures. Information on dermatitis diagnoses from hospital contacts, medical prescriptions and education will be obtained from registers.
Prospective, non-randomized, single arm phase II trial with 2 cohorts of ALK+ ALCL treated with nivolumab
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, controlled, parallel-group, open-label study to evaluate the effects of plasma exchange using human serum albumin 5% (PE-A 5%) in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) subjects. The study will involve approximately 40 study centers in the United States, Canada, and Europe with expertise in the management of subjects with ACLF. Subjects with ACLF at a high risk of hospital mortality will be enrolled. The study will consist of a Screening Period during which subjects will be randomized (1:1) to receive either standard medical treatment (SMT) + PE-A 5% (treatment group) or SMT only (control group), followed by a Treatment Period, and a Follow-up Period. The Treatment Period for subjects in the SMT+ PE-A 5% treatment group will be between 7 and 17 days, depending on ACLF evolution. The Treatment Period for subjects in the SMT control group will be a minimum of 7 days for all subjects and up to 17 days depending on the ACLF evolution. Subjects in this group will receive SMT according to the institution's standards. The Follow-up Period for subjects in both groups will be 90 days.
The role of exosomes in cell signalling has only recently been appreciated and is a hugely exciting and rapidly growing area, and combined with LC-MS/MS proteomics, can overcome traditional barriers to proteomics in doping applications. To our knowledge, no research has yet been undertaken to explore whether the highly promising combination of exosome proteomics has utility for rhEPO detection. The applications are extensive; the diagnostic value of differentially regulated proteins could be further validated against the existing IEF EPO WADA accredited tests using samples collected during this study, used to study altitude hypoxia versus exogenous EPO administration (WADA current targeted research 2017), investigated as a platform approach to ESA and HIF agents more generally, as well as facilitate development of direct ELISA high throughput tests.
