There are about 5161 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Norway. 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 purpose of this study is to determine if erlotinib given orally along with concurrent palliative irradiation to lung cancer improves local control compared to those treated with radiotherapy alone.
This is phase II, single arm, open-label, interventional trial of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in subjects with metastatic or locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour (MPNST). The patients will be treated with pembrolizumab for up to 10 cycles. Primary objective is to evaluate the percentage of patients with curatively unresectable MPNST who have achieved clinical response; complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) at 18 weeks as assessed by the Investigator, by using RECIST, v1.1.
The purpose of this study is to assess long-term safety data of GED-0301 for a period of up to 208 weeks in adult subjects (i.e., ≥ 18 years of age) who participated in the core Phase 3 GED-0301-CD-002 and GED-0301-CD-003 studies and adolescent subjects (i.e., 12 to 17 years of age) who participated in the core Phase 3 GED-0301-CD-003 study. Although all subjects will receive active treatment, this study is double-blinded for the entire 208 weeks for the purpose of preserving the blind of the subject's treatment allocation in the initial, core Phase 3 GED-0301 study. The GED-0301-CD-003 trial was not initiated; see detailed description.
Trigeminal neuralgia is one of the strongest pains known to humans. Some patients do not have enough effect with the available pharmaceutical treatments and are offered a type of surgery, which involves the injection of glycerol in a nerve structure called trigeminal ganglion. The researchers will do a pilot study on 10 patients with a new surgical technique using neuronavigation. The researchers believe that this new neuronavigation-based system can improve the precision of the technique and reduce the risk for complications.
This experimental study will look at the effects of INP therapy for two patient groups: 1) patients with reduced peripheral circulation and chronic wounds in patients with renal disease (dialysis patients); 2) and peripheral arterial disease and leg ulcers. The project is designed as a non-randomized clinical trial with single-subject multiple baseline design. Also the intervention will be subjected on the same leg for each individual throughout the study period. The other leg will act as a control. A baseline measure with patient history collection will be performed before a four-week intervention period. These measures include: Segmental pulse-volume-recording, Segmental skin perfusion pressure with a laser Doppler sensor and a pressure cuff to evaluate reactive hyperemia (Sensilase, Väsamed) and a health survey (SF-12/EQ-5D-5L) or similar. After four weeks and eight weeks of intervention, the same tests will be repeated. A final follow-up test will be two weeks after cessation of the intermittent negative pressure intervention. The study will look at the effect of INP on renal failure patients who are given dialysis at a dialysis center located at Oslo University Hospital, Ullevål. Otivio AS has supplied the FlowOx devices and provided the necessary training to perform this project. Outcome variables assessed before, during and after the 10-week study period will be: wound healing, quality of life, skin perfusion pressure and segmental pulse-volume recording. The aim of this project is to prospectively examine and elucidate the effect of intermittent negative pressure therapy on clinically relevant measures related to the reduction of peripheral macro- and microcirculation in patients with renal failure undergoing dialysis treatment. The hypothesis of the study is: - Application of INP in patients with renal failure, by the use of the FlowOx™ device, will improve wound healing and peripheral circulation in the foot compared to before treatment (baseline) in patients undergoing dialysis treatment. - Application of INP in patients with PAD, by the use of the FlowOx™ device, will improve macro- and microcirculation and wound healing in the foot compared to before treatment (baseline) in patients with chronic wounds.
The main aim of the WESTCOR study is to - investigate the ability of two high sensitive cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays to diagnose acute coronary syndrome and predict prognosis in different patient populations (e.g. gender, age and co-morbidity) - to validate the suggested 1 hour protocol for rule in and rule out of acute coronary syndrome for two hs-cTn assays in an unselected chest pain population - to investigate different biomarkers ability to predict long term prognosis after hospitalization for chest pain
The purpose of this study is to assess the contraceptive efficacy of the etonogestrel + 17β-estradiol (ENG-E2) vaginal ring in women between 18 and 35 years of age based on the number of in-treatment pregnancies as expressed by the Pearl Index (PI). The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of ENG-E2 vaginal ring. The levonorgestrel-ethinyl estradiol (LNG-EE) 150/30 μg combined oral contraceptive (COC) will be used as the active comparator.
This study was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and preliminary anti-tumor activity of LXS196 as a single agent and in combination with HDM201 in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.
Myelofibrosis patients with high molecular risk mutations have an intrinsically aggressive disease with increased risk of leukemic transformation and reduced overall survival. As there are no therapies currently established in the subset of high molecular risk patients with early myelofibrosis, the study aimed to evaluate ruxolitinib in this patient population.
The purpose of study is to test the effects of an experimental medication GED-0301 (mongersen) in patients who have active Crohn's disease. The study will test GED-0301 compared to placebo for 52 weeks. The study treatment is blinded which means that patients and the study doctor will not know which treatment has been assigned. Patients in this study will be allowed treatment with stable doses of oral aminosalicylates, oral corticosteroids, immunosupressants and antibiotics for the treatment of Crohn's disease. After 12 weeks in the study until the end of the study, patients who do not have an improvement in their Crohns disease symptoms will have the option to enter a long term active treatment study. Participants who discontinued the study anytime or completed the study at Week 52 were then observed for an additional 4 weeks.
