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 current study explores the incretin effect; a central mechanism of sugar metabolism. People with type 2 diabetes have a markedly reduced incretin effect, while the incretin effect never has been studied in patients with severe chronic renal failure. Non-diabetic patients with severe kidney failure and patients with diabetes and normal kidney function share several pathophysiological traits, including decreased sensitivity to insulin, fasting hyperinsulinaemia and impaired beta cell function. The investigators expect the incretin effect to be affected in patients with chronic renal failure without diabetes, which in time can result in therapeutic changes in this group of patients.
The hypothesis of this study is that PGF2alpha does not induce headache or dilatation of brain vessels.
The risk for recurrence after ventral hernia repair is often based on reoperation rates with short follow-up rather than recurrences identified by clinical examinations. The purpose of current study is find the real incidence of recurrences 3 years after ventral hernia repair and to compare with the reoperation rate.
The purpose is to test whether early central nervous system (CNS) prophylaxis given at the beginning of therapy for young high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients is feasible and could reduce the risk of CNS relapses. Early CNS prophylaxis with two courses high dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) in combination with rituximab-cyclophosphamide-doxorubicin-vincristine-prednison (R-CHOP) is followed by four courses of R-CHOP14 and etoposide (E) and one course of HD-Ara-C. In addition the patients will receive three courses of liposomal cytarabine intrathecally. The results will be compared to a recent Nordic CRY-04 study. Shifting of CNS prophylaxis to the beginning of the therapy offers a potential to overcome the subclinical disease and thus reduce the risk of early clinical CNS recurrence. As flow cytometry (FCM) can improve the sensitivity for detecting occult leptomeningeal disease over cytology , FCM from cerebrospinal fluid will be incorporated into the staging procedures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pomalidomide monotherapy in subjects with refractory or relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma who were enrolled in study CC-4047-MM-003 (NCT01311687) and discontinued treatment with high-dose dexamethasone due to disease progression.
In this consecutive, prospective cohort study the investigators evaluate if preoperative pain response upon heat stimulation is predictive for acute and subacute postoperative pain after total hip arthroplasty.
The aim of this study is to investigate if imaging guided optimal left ventricular (LV) lead placement improves the response rate to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Consecutive patients meeting the standard criteria for CRT are included in a prospective, double-blinded, randomized trial to LV lead positioning either 1) guided by cardiac imaging using echocardiography, single-photon emission computed tomography, and visualization of cardiac venous anatomy (cardiac computed tomography (CT), venography) to target an epicardial vein at the site of latest mechanical activation without scar tissue or 2) using standard LV lead placement.
This is a phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, combination and component, two-period, incomplete block design cross-over study using GSK573719/GW642444. The primary objective is to evaluate lung function and exercise endurance time after 12 weeks of once-daily administration of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder (125/25mcg and 62.5/25mcg), GSK573719 Inhalation Powder (125mcg and 62.5mcg), GW642444 Inhalation Powder 25 mcg and placebo delivered by a Novel dry powder inhaler (Novel DPI).
Observational study evaluating pain response after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients taking strong, weak or no opioids preoperatively.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether PROSTVAC alone or in combination with GM-CSF is effective in prolonging overall survival in men with few or no symptoms from metastatic, castrate-resistant prostate cancer.
