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.
This is a multicenter, 2-arm open-label, randomized comparative phase II study. The objective of this trial is to prospectively evaluate whether a sequential approach with an induction period of 12 weeks with encorafenib + binimetinib followed by combination immunotherapy with nivolumab + ipilimumab improves progression free survival compared to combination immunotherapy nivolumab + ipilimumab alone in patients with BRAF V600 mutation-positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma.
Eating disorders (ED) comprise a multitude of symptoms involving a disturbed body image and a preoccupation with food or bodyweight. EDs are often difficult to treat, in part due to the lack of motivation for improvement. Anorexia nervosa (AN) has the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric disease, and less than half of patients will recover from the disease. Studies have found that patients suffering from AN have impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL) compared to the general population. It has also been suggested that despite improvement in clinical parameters, patients report deterioration in HRQoL, which is in line with a study finding low agreement between patient perceived outcome and clinician assessed characteristics. To evaluate the patients' perception of their disease, it is important to develop reliable and valid assessment tools. Previously generic questionnaires have been used to assess HRQoL in Danish ED patients, as no disease-specific questionnaires have been developed. Translating and validating a disease-specific questionnaire would provide a useful tool in assessing current treatment and in developing new treatment options. This study aimed to develop a Danish version of an internationally disease-specific HRQoL questionnaire. Furthermore, HRQoL is assessed in patients who have gone through shorter or longer treatment.
The aim of the current trial is to evaluate if combination treatment with venetoclax + ibrutinib in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (RR CLL) can lead to MRD negativity, which may induce long lasting remissions for MRD-negative patients randomized to stopping treatment after 15 induction cycles.
The aim of the Danish Organisation for randomised trials with clinical outcome (SORT OUT) is to compare the safety and efficacy of the ComboTM stent and Orsiro™ stent in the treatment of unselected patients with ischemic heart disease, using registry detection of clinically driven events.
Traditionally MCN is treated with a high dose of prednisolone, which induces remission in 60-90% of patients. Prednisolone treatment contains numerous side effects and the current dose is empiric. Given the lack of efficacy evidence and the risk associated with the currently accepted treatment regimen there is a need to characterize the outcome in MCN further, and to establish new, and potentially less toxic treatment regimens. The aim is to examine if treatment with reduced dose of prednisolone in combination with activated vitamin D is as effective as standard high dose prednisolone in achieving remission and preventing relapse in MCN, and if reduced dose prednisolone is associated with fewer side effects compared to standard dose. Furthermore, the study will examine the influence of prednisolone metabolism on the efficacy and side effects of prednisolone in the treatment of MCN.
This is a substudy to a randomised trial investigating the effect of liraglutide on body weight and pain in overweight or obese patients with knee osteoarthritis (NCT02905864). In the parent trial, patients will be subjected to an 8-week diet intervention phase including a low-calorie diet and dietetic counseling, after which patients will be randomised to receive either liraglutide 3 mg or liraglutide 3 mg placebo as an add-on to dietetic guidance on re-introducing regular foods and a focus on continued motivation to engage in a healthy lifestyle. This substudy aims to investigate any changes in the thickness of Adventitia, Extra-media (EMT) and veia jugularis assessed by ultrasound in relation to an initial 8-week weight loss intervention. Change will be assessed by grey-scale ultrasound, the area measured will be from the anterior wall of arteria carotis interna to the jugular vein including the wall of the vein, subsequent the thickness of the artery will be subtracted to measure the thickness of the of Adventitia, Extra-media (EMT) and veia jugularis interna compelx.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab plus cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (CyBorD) compared with CyBorD alone in treatment of newly diagnosed amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis participants.
This is an international, multicentre, prospective, non-interventional, observational Registry of patients with X-Linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). The main objective of this XLH Registry is to collect data to characterise the treatment, progression and long-term outcomes of XLH in both adult and paediatric settings.
BACKGROUND: Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a serious and debilitating mental disease characterized by difficulties with emotion regulation that leads to unstable and self- destructive behavior and relationships. The prevalence of BPD is between 1% and 5% in the Scandinavian population with similar prevalence rates found in US epidemiologic surveys. BPD increases the risk for suicide by 4-fold, while patients with comorbid BDP and tendency to self-harm have a further 2-fold attenuated risk. BDP is difficult to treat, and even more difficult when co-occurring with other disorders. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is the best validated treatment for BPD, showing medium to large effect sizes as compared to treatment as usual for anger, parasuicidality (suicide attempts without an intention to die) and poor mental health. DBT uses self-monitoring as the mainstay of treatment, which helps patients regulate their emotions by means of emotional regulating skills, and reduce problem behavior. Self-monitoring has traditionally been done by means of daily paper diaries. The latest developments in smartphone applications have generated alternatives for ecological momentary assessments of problematic behavior that even prompt patients to practice skills targeting emotion regulation. An example of this is Monsenso's DBT self-monitoring mHealth application (mHealth means mobile health, public health supported by mobile phones). Such applications may enhance treatment success in BPD patients, as they are available to patients at all times. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the Monsenso's mHealth app with respect to clinical efficacy as an adjunct to DBT-psychotherapy treatment and utility as a way to measure outcomes in BPD patients. METHODS: The study will be a 2-year multi center, randomized controlled trial. In both conditions patients will be followed for one year. Self report data of DBT-skills-use, positive and negative affect, Standardised self report questionnaires on Emotion regulation ability; functioning; borderline symptoms. will be given pre, post and every month. The treatment arm (n=50) will receive the mHealth app that includes coaching suggestions and instructed how to use it. The control arm (n=50) will only use a pen and paper based self-monitoring, as traditionally used in DBT-treatment. STUDY ENDPOINTS: Primary: mean number of days passed per new DBT-Skill learned. Secondary: Borderline personality disorder(BPD)-symptoms, Emotion regulation ability, ratio positive/negative affect.
This is a two-phase multicenter, double-blind, randomized, prospective evaluation of intra-articular injection(s) comparing APS to intra-articular HA injection(s). The maximum study duration for each subject will be 62 months; 60 months from treatment to last follow-up, and two additional months if the maximum visit window is realized. A total of 246 patients will be enrolled. These patients will meet specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, but can be generally characterized as patients with painful unilateral knee OA who have been unable to achieve satisfactory pain relief with previous conservative OA treatment.
