There are about 3961 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Finland. 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 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 study was performed to assess the efficacy and safety of Vilaprisan in subjects with uterine fibroids compared to standard of care
Trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, outcome assessor-blinded, three armed parallel 1:1:1, multicenter trial. The research objective is to determine, which treatment strategy 1) primary percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) followed by surgical limited fasciectomy (LF) in patients who do not respond to PNF, 2) primary collagenase clostridium histolyticym (CCH) followed by LF in patients who do not respond to CCH or 3) LF as the primary (and secondary) treatment modality is the most cost-effective in treating Dupuytren´s contracture. Short- and long-term results will be published.
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) is a promising tool when monitoring the residual disease in colorectal cancer (CRC). Current staging procedures are insufficient to identify the patient cohort at high risk, who might benefit from additional adjuvant therapy. We will show that the assessment of ctDNA is a non-invasive approach and easily taken at different time points via simple blood draw to monitor residual disease from the colorectal cancer patients after primary surgery. Minimal residual disease could be used in the future for individualized treatment decisions after primary surgery.
Study E7080-G000-218 is a Randomized, open-label (formerly Double-blind), Phase 2 Trial conducted to assess whether a starting dose of lenvatinib 14 milligrams (mg) in combination with everolimus 5 mg once daily (QD) will provide comparable efficacy (based on objective response rate [ORR] at 24 weeks [ORR24W]) with an improved safety profile compared to lenvatinib 18 mg in combination with everolimus 5 mg (based on treatment-emergent intolerable Grade 2, or any greater than or equal to (>=) Grade 3 adverse events (AEs) in the first 24 weeks after randomization).
The purpose is to compare median two-year clinical outcome after OCT guided vs. standard guided revascularization of patients requiring complex bifurcation stent implantation
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug abemaciclib in participants with high risk, node positive, early stage, hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal receptor 2 negative (HER2-), breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the adjuvant treatment of adult participants who have undergone nephrectomy and have intermediate-high risk, high risk, or M1 no evidence of disease (M1 NED) renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with clear cell component. The primary study hypothesis is that pembrolizumab is superior to placebo with respect to Disease-free Survival (DFS) as assessed by the Investigator in male and female participants with intermediate-high risk, high risk and M1 NED RCC.
Our aim is to evaluate whether translocator binding protein (TSPO)-imaging correlates to Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and other disease progression-related clinical and paraclinical parameters in a homogenous cohort of 40-50-year old MS-patients, who are at risk of progression. The A2A-AR expression in this cohort will also be studied using the adenosine A2A-receptor (A2A-AR)-binding radioligand 11C-TMSX. The study cohort will also form the basis for a later follow-up study, which will be performed to evaluate the prognostic value of baseline TSPO-imaging in terms of disease progression. TSPO-imaging could thus be used as an imaging biomarker to help identifying patients to therapeutically prevent progression of MS. At the 5 year time point synaptic density will be evaluated using 11C-UCB-J radioligand and PET imaging.
Summary In patients with prostate cancer (PC) who have only biochemically relapsed disease after curative treatment (or some locally advanced PC patients), hormonal therapy remains a de facto standard of care treatment. Adding docetaxel-based chemotherapy to a standard-of-care hormonal therapy has an increased potential to treat prostate cancer cell clones resistant to androgen withdrawal and to possibly shorten the duration of therapy needed to control the disease. This clinical trial is designed on the basis of an unmet clinical need, as well as other factors including: 1) a consensus among investigators on endpoints for studies of patients with a rising PSA, 2) the ability to identify subjects at high risk for developing radiographic metastases, 3) the fact that hormonal therapy has already been shown to improve survival when applied early in the natural history, and 4) the availability of chemotherapy such as docetaxel that can improve survival in subjects with advanced disease. It is our hypothesis that a more appropriate group of patients who may benefit from the curative potential of systemic chemo-hormonal modality is that with minimal, but detectable disease who have a high probability of developing metastatic disease, clinical symptoms and eventually death from prostate cancer in a defined time frame. The investigators hypothesize further that the approach is likely to be more effective at a time of minimal tumour burden, resulting in minimization of the overall burden of therapy and better quality of life while on treatment. This trial will determine whether any benefit is gained by adding chemotherapy to hormonal therapy alone in the population of subjects with a rising PSA. Two therapeutic approaches will be compared in this two-arm randomized clinical trial. The control Arm A provides antiandrogen (bicalutamide 150 mg x 1) alone. The experimental Arm B involves treatment with docetaxel for 8-10 cycles and antiandrogen (bicalutamide 150 mg x 1) treatment. For the schematic representation of study design please see Section 7.3.1. Subjects with a rising PSA following definitive local curative therapy will be eligible, if their PSA doubling time is < 12 months. Also PC patients planned for anti-.androgen therapy are eligible, with the same criteria. Subjects with radiographic metastases will be excluded. The primary endpoint of the trial is progression-free survival of subjects that do not experience biochemical failure at 60 months from the start of therapy. Based on the yearly number of prostate cancer patients who undergo definitive local therapies and the estimated probabilities of relapse, upwards of 400 men (if +15% improvement) in the Scandinavian countries are potential candidates for this approach.
