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 study is to evaluate the percentage of patients with asthma or COPD achieving disease control
Daratumumab is a new treatment for patients with myeloma. While many patients benefit from this treatment some do not and the mechanism(s) of failure are poorly understood. This study aims to clarify aspects of resistance to treatment with daratumumab in order to improve patient outcomes in the future.
UPDATED May 2016: Originally the study design included investigation of the effects of the bioactive compound resveratrol compared to placebo tablets and to CPAP treatment. Due to fewer subjects having OSA than estimated by pre-study and, therefore, difficulties in the recruiting process the investigators have found it necessary to descale the study design. Hence, we have discontinued the resveratrol and CPAP intervention and will focus on the cross-sectional investigation of metabolic changes in subjects with and without OSA and the effect of weight loss after bariatric surgery on inflammation, OSA severity, metabolism and arterial stiffness. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder especially among obese individuals and patients with type 2 diabetes. OSA is associated with an increased morbidity and mortality. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard treatment. Also weight loss is known to reduce the severity of OSA, especially bariatric surgery has proven effective because of the massive weight loss. The investigators hypothesize that OSA via pro-inflammatory responses in various tissues causes low-grade inflammation which ultimately induce the associated co-morbidities. The investigators hypothesize that massive weight loss after bariatric surgery have beneficial effects on severity of OSA, inflammatory status and improves insulin sensitivity.
The purpose is to see if Autologous Conditioned Plasma (ACP) promote and accelerating tendon tissue healing in Conservative treated total Achilles Tendon Tears. 40 healthy males were randomized to either receive ACP or Placebo (saline) around the ruptured achilles tendon at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and again after 6 weeks during the 8 weeks immobilization period with an orthosis. Ultrasound and symptoms scores (ATLS) was performed at baseline, after 8 weeks immobilization and again after 3 month, 6 month and 12 month. Scoring and functional tests was performed after the 8 weeks immobilization and again after 12 weeks, 24 weeks and 52 weeks from injury date.
Chlorogenic acid (CGA) in coffee may lower the postprandial glucose response. CGA is destroyed by dark roasting. In a controlled crossover trial, 11 healthy fasted volunteers consumed 300 mL of either light (LIR) or dark (DAR) roasted coffee, or water, followed 30 min later by a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Plasma glukose and insulin, appetite, and plasma and urine metabolic profiles will be analysed. The primary aim is to investigate whether roasting affects the postprandial glucose area under the curve (AUC).
The purpose of the study was to explore the added value of adjunctive use of Early Embryo Viability Assessment (Eeva) with morphological grading in identifying optimal embryos for transfer.
This study evaluates the effect of a lifestyle intervention maintenance of glycemic control while reducing glucose lowering drugs in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The intervention group receives an intensive lifestyle intervention including exercise and diet lifestyle modifications. The reference group receives diabetes educational advice. Both groups will have their pharmacological treatment regulated across the study. The primary hypothesis is that lifestyle change is sufficient to maintain glycemic control while decreasing the anti-diabetic medication in a sample patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Apixaban is safer than a Vitamin K Antagonist given for 6 months in terms of bleeding in patients with an irregular heart beat (atrial fibrillation) and a recent heart attack or a recent procedure to open up a blood vessel in the heart. All patients would also be taking a class of medicines called P2Y12 inhibitors (such as clopidogrel/Plavix) and be treated for up to 6 months. The primary focus will be a comparison of the bleeding risk of Apixaban, with or without aspirin, versus a Vitamin K antagonist, such as warfarin, with or without aspirin.
For elective abdominal surgery preoperative administration of 8 mg dexamethasone reduces the incidents of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Whether preoperative administration of 8 mg dexamethasone reduces PONV for patients having acute abdominal surgery has not been established. The investigators wish to see if preoperative administration of 8 mg dexamethasone minimum 30 minutes prior to a diagnostic laparoscopy for suspected appendicitis will reduce the incidents of PONV by 50%. Of secondary interest the investigators want to see if 8 mg dexamethasone preoperative can reduce pain, reduce opioid consumption, postoperative fatigue, duration of time until resumption of work and resumption of normal daily activities, and enhanced the quality of recovery.
Comparison of 2 doses of empagliflozin vs placebo in patients already using either an insulin regimen of multiple daily injections (MDI) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Randomisation to 3 treatments arms (equal assignment) following a screening period, an optimisation period and a run-in period. 52 week double-blind treatment period, and 3 week follow-up period.
