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.
Patients on immunosuppressive therapy, e.g. organ recipients, have a higher occurrence of AK than the untreated population. Keratotic lesions (i.e. AK lesions and warts) in this population is highly associated with development of SCC also with 10 times higher mortality rate because of SCC than expected. The risk of developing skin cancer, predominantly SCC and BCC, increases with graft survival time and the length of immunosuppressive treatment period. The higher risk of developing skin malignancy and more aggressive skin malignancies in this population, indicate the need for early removal of these pre-malignant lesions. In this study, two contralateral areas (5x10 cm2) with skin lesions within the patient will be compared. One area will receive Metvix PDT at defined intervals and the other will receive lesion specific treatment at the discretion of the investigator. The primary end-point will be the accumulated number of new lesions during the study and number of AK lesions that show complete response 3 months after baseline. Secondary endpoints will be number of BCC lesions that show complete response, number of recurrent lesions, assessment of cosmetic outcome and safety.
The purpose of the study is the examine the precision of acceleromyography and mechanomyography during recovery from a neuromuscular blocking agent and to examine whether there is any difference in monitoring block at the dominant or non-dominant arm. Our hypothesis is that there is no significant difference in neither the precision nor the level of block in the contralateral arms.
In this study, the efficacy and safety of two nilotinib doses, 300 mg twice daily and 400 mg twice daily, were compared with imatinib 400 mg once daily in newly diagnosed patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP). An extension protocol was included in this study design to allow patients who did not show sufficient response to their assigned treatments the opportunity to receive imatinib 400 mg BID (option available until protocol amendment 7) or nilotinib 400 mg BID, using an abbreviated safety and efficacy assessment schedule.
This is a study to count the number of white blood cells in the cerebrospinal fluid and blood at the beginning and end of treatment with firategrast and at 4 and 12 weeks after stopping firategrast. Cerebrospinal fluid flows through and protects the brain and spinal cord. It is important to understand what happens to the number of white blood cells because they are important in preventing infections.
This study is being conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of RSD1235 in the conversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm.
To evaluate the effect of capsaicin in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.
Background and objective: Plasma cobalamins decrease during pregnancy but it is not fully elucidated how this is reflected in the total and cobalamin saturated transport proteins, transcobalamin (total TC, holoTC) and haptocorrin (total HC, holoHC). TC transports cobalamin into the cells. The function of HC is unknown, but in contrast to TC it binds both cobalamins and cobalamin analogues. Design and methods: Healthy pregnant women (N=141) had blood samples drawn at 18th, 32nd, 39th gestation week and 8 weeks postpartum. The protein moiety of TC and HC (total and holo) was measured by in-house ELISA methods.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether sedation of the critical ill patient prolongs the time receiving mechanical ventilation.
This study will demonstrate the non-inferiority of GSK Biologicals' meningococcal vaccine 134612 when given in an experimental co-administration versus vaccine 134612 alone and versus the experimental co-administration alone in healthy subjects aged 11 through 17 years. There will be 3 groups in this study.
