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 objective of the study is to investigate extra-articular manifestations, pain mechanisms, patient-reported outcomes, comorbidities and association between these conditions in patients with spondyloarthropathy (SpA) treated with Biologics. Further, to assess the predictive value of baseline pain profile on treatment outcome after ≥ 3 months.
A controlled randomized, open-label, multi-centre study evaluating if an immunosuppressive protocol, based on ATG-induction, once daily tacrolimus-dose (Advagraf®), mycophenolate mofetil and corticosteroid reduces the incidence of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) after lung transplantation, in comparison with a standard cyclosporin-based protocol.
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). This substudy aims to investigate any changes in biomarkers associated with the initial 8-week weight loss intervention
The purpose of this study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the WATCHMAN™ Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC) Device, including the post-implant medication regimen, for subjects with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who are deemed not to be eligible for anti-coagulation therapy to reduce the risk of stroke.
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune chronic liver disease, characterised by destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ducts. sCD163 is a macrophage activation marker shedded into plasma by macrophages in the liver. sMR is a soluble mannose receptor. The investigators want to investigate whether sCD163 and sMR correlate with disease severity in patients with PBC, and whether sCD163 and sMR can predict short term disease progression, changes in quality of life and death in these patients.
Increasing focus on the negative effects of bed rest have become more apparent in the intensive care unit within the last decade. A few studies have found an association between early rehabilitation starting at the intensive care unit and outcome after discharge from rehabilitation. The early mobilization presents with challenges regarding haemodynamic stability. The aim of this trial is to assess the feasibility before conducting a larger randomised trial that will investigate benefits and harms of an intensive physical rehabilitation intervention focusing on mobilisation to the upright position, starting as early as clinically feasible in the intensive care unit
This study evaluate the additional effect of adding chemotherapy prior to resection of a pancreatic head malignancy. The patients will be randomized into two groups; surgery first (control group) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (intervention). Primary endpoint is overall survival after resection
The aim of the Danish Organization for Randomized Trials with Clinical Outcome (SORT OUT) IX STEMI OCT is to compare early vascular healing of the polymer-free Biolimus-eluting BIOFREEDOM stent with a biodegradable-polymer Sirolimus-eluting ORSIRO stent in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
LifeSeal™ Kit, surgical sealant designed for staple-line reinforcement that is applied over the anastomotic line to prevent bowel content leakage until full physiological function is restored. RATIONALE : Postoperative anastomotic leakage is one of the most devastating and feared complications in colorectal surgery. The risk of postoperative anastomotic leakage varies widely depending on the level of anastomosis while the risk is higher in low anastomosis. In order to best demonstrate the benefits of LifeSeal™ in providing staple line reinforcement and helping to reduce leaks, the study includes high risk anastomoses, defined as colorectal and coloanal anastomoses performed within 10 cm from the anal verge. STUDY DESIGN: This study is designed as a prospective, multi-center, multinational randomized, single-blind, double armed study PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LifeSeal™ Kit as measured by the change in overall anastomotic leak rates in subjects undergoing low anterior resection with an anastomosis below 10 cm from the anal verge, over the first 17 weeks after surgery. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: The secondary objective of this study is to assess the incidence of post-operative leaks and additional benefits that could be related to the use of LifeSeal™ Kit such as reducing the severity and improving the outcome of a leak once it has occurred. In addition, the study will allow for collection and analysis of additional safety data and usability assessment of the device, medical resource utilization, and health related quality of life measures.
One third of migraine patients experience aura, i.e. dramatic, transient neurological symptoms, most often in the form of visual disturbances, that usually appear before the onset of migraine headache. The likely underlying mechanism of aura is known as cortical spreading depression, a wave of changes in electrical activity that slowly spreads in the outermost layer of the brain. It is currently not known what causes the aura to initiate in patients or what the relationship is between aura and migraine headache, e.g. if treatment targeted at aura mechanisms will prevent subsequent headache. Due to the short-lasting and unpredictable nature of aura, the only possible approach for systematic investigations is to experimentally trigger aura, but currently no method for aura-triggering is available. The overall goal of the proposed project is to reveal the earliest mechanisms of the migraine attack by investigating the initiating factors of aura in the migraine brain. Current animal evidence indicates that infusion of endothelin-1 (ET-1), a naturally occurring signaling molecule released from blood vessels, is safe and very likely to trigger migraine aura in patients. In this project the investigators aim to study the effects of ET-1 on the human brain, to investigate aura-inducing effects of ET-1 in patients and to develop a safe and reliable method for the experimental induction of migraine aura using ET-1.
