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.
To compare the effect of restrictive versus liberal red blood cell transfusion thresholds on long-term neurodevelopmental outcome in extremely low birth weight infants.
The purpose of this study is to create a model enabling us to predict pancreatitis, hyperlipidemia and hepatotoxicity during treatment with PEG-Asparaginase in children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Based on prior findings concerning sleep disturbances, in particular REM sleep disturbances, after fast-track hip and knee arthroplasty (H-2-2010-011) we performed a supplemental analysis of heart rate variablity after arousals during sleep. We compared preoperative and postoperative results.
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) and insulin degludec (IDeg) in subjects with type 2 diabetes. Subjects continue their pre-trial treatment with metformin throughout the entire trial.
The purpose of this study is to describe psychosocial adjustment in patients with breast cancer and their cohabiting partners/spouses throughout the cancer trajectory, to study mutual influences of the partner on the patient and vice versa, and to identify risk and protective factors that influence the adjustment process in both patients and partners. The overall aim is to generate knowledge that helps enables us to integrate the partners' needs, problems and resources in treatment and rehabilitation of breast cancer patients.
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is increasing rapidly worldwide. T2D is characterized by a severely impaired incretin effect. The incretin effect refers to the insulinotropic action of the nutrient-released incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP). The incretin effect is defined as the difference in insulin secretory responses between oral and isoglycaemic intravenous glucose challenges (OGTT and IIGI, respectively) and in healthy individuals it accounts for as much as 70% of the insulin response following oral glucose, whereas patients with T2D exhibit an incretin effect in the range of 0 to 30%. Patients with T2D and non-diabetic patients with severe kidney failure share several pathophysiological characteristics, including decreased insulin sensitivity, fasting hyperinsulinaemia and impaired beta-cell function. The reason for these findings remains to be fully elucidated. An ongoing study in our research group is investigating the incretin effect and the incretin hormone secretory responses following OGTT, IIGI and meal ingestion, respectively. In continuation of this study, essential knowledge of metabolism of incretin hormones in an uremic milieu will be obtained in the present study prior to evaluation of the use of incretin-based agents in patients with impaired kidney function. In this second study we evaluate the elimination and biodegradation of GLP-1 and GIP. The biological active incretin hormones are rapidly degraded by the ubiquitous enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), generating inactive metabolites. The active hormones are however also eliminated by renal clearance, although the importance of this remains questionable. It is likely that the degradation and elimination of the active hormones will be significantly affected in patients with severe kidney impairment. We hypothesize that elimination and biodegradation of the two incretin hormones, both in it´s active and inactive forms, will be affected in non-diabetic patients with severe kidney failure.
This randomized, open-label, multicenter, 2-arm study will investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of bevacizumab when added to postoperative radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant TMZ as compared to postoperative radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant TMZ alone in paediatric participants with newly diagnosed histologically confirmed World Health Organization (WHO) Grade III or IV localized supratentorial or infratentorial cerebellar or peduncular high grade glioma (HGG). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms. Upon approval by the Health Authorities/Ethics Committees in the participating countries, an additional young participant cohort (YPC) (children >/= 6 months and < 3 years of age with progressive or relapsed metastatic or localized, supra- or infratentorial, non-brain stem WHO Grade III or IV HGG) was included in the study. Children in the YPC will receive bevacizumab and TMZ without radiation therapy. The anticipated time on study treatment is over 1 year.
The purpose of the study is to investigate if treatment with an anticoagulant drug increases birth weight in pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction.
The aim of the present study was to analyse factors associated with prolonged length of hospital stay, readmission and death in a nationwide group of patients undergoing elective ventral hernia repair in search for areas of interest to improve outcome after ventral hernia surgery
This trial is conducted in Europe and North America. The aim of this trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of adding liraglutide versus addition of insulin aspart with the largest meal to insulin degludec in subjects with type 2 diabetes. Eligible subjects with an HbA1c equal to or above 7% at end of treatment in NN1250-3643 (NCT01193309) trial will be randomised to receive treatment intensification while subjects with an HbA1c below 7% at end of treatment in NN1250-3643 (NCT01193309) may continue to receive insulin degludec treatment. Subjects are to continue their pre-trial metformin treatment.
