17p-/p53-mutated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is an orphan disease, accounting for approximately 5% of newly diagnosed CLL. This subgroup of patients has a very poor outcome after chemoimmunotherapy. Allogeneic HCT may change the poor prognosis. In a retrospective EBMT-analysis on 44 patients with advanced 17p-CLL 2-year progression-free survival was 45% (95% CI, 30% to 60%) after allogeneic HCT (Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for chronic lymphocytic leukemia with 17p deletion: a retrospective European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation analysis. J Clin Oncol, 2008, 26, 5094-5100). Referring to these favorable results and small additional series, patients with 17p-CLL requiring therapy are considered to have an indication for allogeneic transplantation by many CLL study groups. Several CLL study groups recommend allogeneic HCT in 17p-CLL as part of the first- or second line treatment. The aim is to collect additional evidence on allogeneic HCT in 17p-/p53-mutated CLL in first or second remission by a non-interventional prospective study. Patients shall be registered prior to HCT at the Leiden Office in order to rule out a reporting bias after transplantation.
This post-marketing, single-center prospective study will be conducted in an open-label, non-interventional setting, for women seeking fertility treatment and will describe cleavage dynamics in relation to the age of the oocyte and gonadotrophin treatment.
A recent epidemiologic survey has indicated that approx. 42% of Danish women treated for breast cancer experience negative sequelae in the form of pain following treatment. Chronic pain is known to be associated with impaired social and emotional functioning, and thus presents a particular concern. Mindfulness-based intervention is among the complementary, psychological treatments, which cancer patients commonly seek out in relation to the course of their illness. Despite the popularity of mindfulness-based intervention among cancer patients, no studies have so far investigated the effect of mindfulness-based intervention on chronic pain in breast cancer patients. While no studies so far have focused on pain, there is evidence to suggest that mindfulness-based intervention is associated with improved psychosocial adaption to cancer. Furthermore, non-cancer research suggests that mindfulness-based intervention is associated with reduced pain experiences. The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) on chronic pain in breast cancer patients. Women who have completed their treatment for breast cancer and who experience chronic pain, will be randomized to an intervention group (MBCT) or a treatment-as-usual control group. All participants will be assessed at the same time points, i.e. before the intervention (baseline), and three times after the intervention/control condition, with the last follow-up 6 months after the intervention. In addition, a number of potential moderators and mediators of the outcome will be explored. For example, recent studies indicate that adult attachment style may constitute an important moderator and/or mediator in the development of pain, and preliminary research has suggested that attachment style may moderate the effect of mindfulness-based intervention. The results will provide valuable new knowledge about the potential of MBCT as a treatment strategy for chronic pain in breast cancer patients, will contribute to the clarification of underlying mechanisms in the experience of and coping with pain, which could help the development of more effective, individualized interventions.
A study for patients with abnormal heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) who need to undergo cardioversion (procedure to restore normal heart rhythm). The study will compare patients assigned randomly (like flipping a coin) to either Rivaroxaban or vitamin K antagonist (VKA). The study will measure common medical outcomes for this type of patient such as bleeding and stroke.
To determine the clinical safety and efficacy of abaloparatide transdermal in otherwise healthy postmenopausal women with osteoporosis as assessed by changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and serum markers of bone metabolism when compared to transdermal placebo and abaloparatide injection for 6 months of treatment.
Postoperative seroma formation is one of the most common complications after ventral hernia repair. Although some seromas may not have clinical impact, postoperative seroma formation often causes pain and discomfort and may even compromise wound healing. The use of postoperative abdominal binder is often recommended after ventral hernia repair to prevent seroma and diminish pain, but still with no scientific evidence. The primary aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of postoperative abdominal binders after laparoscopic ventral hernia repair on postoperative pain, discomfort and quality of life. Secondary, we register seroma formation. Method and material Randomized, controlled, multi-center, investigator-blinded study. A minimum of 56 patients (2X28 umbi/epi) are included, inclusion number is based on power calculations. Patients are randomized either to abdominal binder or no abdominal binder. The abdominal binder is worn from immediately after the operation and continuously for 7 days, night and day. Outcomes are based on patient self-reported registrations using Visual Analog Scales (VAS) and Carolina Comfort Scale (CCS), which is a validated, hernia-specific tool to estimate quality of life, pain and discomfort. Patients are followed-up for 30 days. For secondary outcome we use ultrasound to measure the volume of seroma formation. We use Mann-Witney, non-parametric statistics calculating the seroma formation and Friedmanns test for pain, discomfort and quality of life for the effect of time on inter- and intragroup differences during the study period. P < 0.05 is considered significant.
The purpose of this study is to compare visual acuity, safety, predictability, corneal biomechanics, dry eyes, and nerve-morphology after all femtosecond laser refractive lenticule extraction. Approximately 30 to 40 patients with moderate to high myopia will randomly (after ocular dominance) receive ReLEx flex in one eye, and ReLEx smile in the other.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether simtuzumab (GS-6624) is effective at preventing the progression of liver fibrosis in adults with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC).
The Danish regions aim to implement antenatal education in small groups for all expectant parents. The effects of general antenatal education for childbirth or parenthood, or both, remain largely unknown. Also it is unknown if antenatal education in small groups is superior to antenatal lectures which is currently standard care. The aim of the trial is to evaluate if antenatal birth and parent preparation in small groups can increase parenting resources thereby easing birth and creating a smoother and less stressful transition to parenthood among the participants, compared to those allocated to standard care. This in turn is hypothesized to improve health and thriving among newborn families and affect their use of healthcare services. A thorough process evaluation will be conducted highlighting enabling factors and barriers to the implementation. Finally cost-effectiveness analysis will be conducted. Individually randomised trial sited at Hvidovre Hospital, a large birth clinic in the Copenhagen Capital Region of Denmark. Participants: 1756 pregnant women ≥ 18 years old, recruited before 20+0 weeks gestation, due to give birth at Hvidovre Hospital. Being legally able and willing to provide signed consent, and being fluent in Danish. Women are randomised to receive: 1. A research-based birth and parenting program. The intervention consists of 4 sessions in small groups that last for 2,5 hours per session at 25, 33 and 35 weeks of gestation, and a post-natal session 5 weeks after expected due date. 2. Standard care (control group). The pregnant woman and her partner are offered two antenatal lectures in an auditorium. The allocation of participants to the intervention will be 1:1 to the intervention and the control group. Data will be collected via questionnaires at baseline, 37 weeks gestation, 9 weeks post-partum, 6 months post-partum and 1 year post-partum, via the hospital obstetric database, and via the national registers. Analyses will be intention to treat. Subgroup analysis will be conducted in relation to personal and demographic characteristics. Process evaluation will be conducted using questionnaires and qualitative interviews. The incremental societal cost of the intervention will be computed and compared to the measured outcomes in a cost-effectiveness analysis. Outcomes: Stress, parenting alliance, depressive symptoms, wellbeing obstetric intervention, use of health care services, self-efficacy, divorce.
