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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and efficacy of CFZ533 as an add-on therapy to standard of care in patients with moderate to severe myasthenia gravis (MG).
Objective: This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in osteoporosis patients randomized to standard parathyroid hormone (PTH) treatment alone or to standard PTH treatment and Whole-body vibration (WBV). PTH is an effective but expensive anabolic treatment for osteoporosis. WBV stimulates muscles and bones. A combined treatment might have synergistic or additive beneficial effects on bone, reducing fracture risk making treatment more effective and cost-effective. A beneficial effect on muscles and thereby falls risk of WBV may improve fracture risk even further. If the results of this pilot study are promising then a strong case can be made for a large multi-centre RCT using strong endpoints including fractures and falls.
Immunohistochemical detection of the BRAF-V600E mutation on pre-operative fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) from patients suspected for papillary thyroid carcinoma, using the mutation specific antibody VE1.
Many ovarian cancer patients have been offered different standard cytostatics and gradually develop chemo-resistance. However, a considerable fraction of these patients are still in good general health and have a strong wish for further treatment. Cabazitaxel (Jevtana®) is a new taxane with effect in breast and prostatic cancer. In both tumors it has shown effect in patients refractory to docetaxel. Therefore, it could be anticipated that cabazitaxel may also have an effect in chemo-resistant ovarian cancer. The aim of the study is to investigate whether cabazitaxel could be a reasonable treatment option in patients with chemo-resistant and refractory ovarian cancer with regard to effect and toxicity.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of bexagliflozin in lowering hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and increased risk of cardiovascular adverse events. The data from this study will be combined with the data from other bexagliflozin studies in a meta-analysis of CV safety outcomes.
The objective of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of an initial triple oral treatment regimen (macitentan, tadalafil, selexipag) versus an initial dual oral treatment regimen (macitentan, tadalafil, placebo) in newly diagnosed, treatment-naïve patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
The objective of the study is to help establish a urinary threshold for salmeterol on the World Anti-doping Agency prohibited list, to avoid supratherapeutic of this substance in competitive sports. Hence, there is no hypothesis as such.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HyQvia (Immunoglobulin 10% with recombinant hyaluronidase) with conventional subcutaneous immunoglobulin treatment in patients with Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN).
This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of QAW039 150 mg and QAW039 450 mg, compared with placebo, when added to GINA (Global Initiative for Asthma) steps 4 and 5 standard-of- care (SoC) asthma therapy (GINA 2016) in the following two populations: - patient with inadequately controlled severe asthma and high eosinophil counts at baseline (eosinophil count at Visit 1 ≥250 cells/ µl) (sub-population) - patients with inadequately controlled severe asthma (overall study population) Inadequate control is defined as partly controlled or uncontrolled asthma (GINA 2016).
Diabetic macular edema (DME) in diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of visual impairment among the 300,000 Danish patients with diabetes (DM) and will in time affect 29% of patients. Because of DME, 550 intravitreal injections were given at Odense University Hospital in 2014 with medicine expenses approximating 3.3 million DKK. With an increasing prevalence of diabetes, the number is expected to rise significantly for the years to come. The investigators hypothesize that combination therapy with intravitreal aflibercept and a new computer navigated photocoagulations system (Navilas®) leads to a decreased need for intravitreal injections. Further, the investigators wish to identify retinal risk markers for DME treatment outcome to assist individualized treatment planning. The evaluation of the baseline level of macular ischemia as marker of successful treatment outcome is of particular interest as this is still highly debatable and may prove a significant prognostic factor of anatomical and functional outcome to anti-VEGF treatment. The ADDENDUM study (four-year part-time PhD study) is a 12-month prospective randomized 1:1 study to compare intravitreal aflibercept and Navilas® laser (Group A) with intravitreal aflibercept and conventional Pascal laser (Group B) in the treatment of DME. Eligibility criteria: DM, age 18-99, clinically significant macular edema, central retinal thickness > 300 μm, best corrected visual acuity 35-75 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters. The investigators believe that this study holds the potential to set precedent for a new gold standard of DME-treatment with increased treatment effect, reduced risks and a more cost-effective approach.
