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 subjective feeling of being periodically fatigued, tired, even exhausted is common in the general population, as well as in a large number of medical conditions, including neurological illness, such as traumatic brain injury (TBI), cerebrovascular accidents (CVA), multiple sclerosis (MS), and poliomyelitis. Fatigue typically results in compensatory behaviors such as spending extended time in bed, daytime napping, and restricted participation in activities of daily living, which in turn can have a profound negative impact on mental and physical health. Although fatigue is common and debilitating, there is a scarcity of knowledge concerning underlying biological, psychological and psychosocial mechanisms in the development and maintenance of persisting fatigue. There is also a general lack of theoretical accounts of potentially shared and etiology-specific mechanisms across conditions. The existence of clinical subgroups and diverse clinical trajectories is not well documented, resulting in a lack of evidence-based treatment opportunities. Diagnosis and management of fatigue is further challenged by difficulties in conceptualizing and defining the phenomenon itself, since fatigue is subjectively experienced and multifaceted. Thus, as fatigue often poses a chronic problem, health professionals in community based rehabilitation settings are faced with helping patients cope with this symptom without a clear understanding of causes or treatment options. The current project aims to map the occurrence of fatigue following moderate to severe TBI and achieve a better theoretical and clinical understanding of the mechanisms which may cause, exacerbate or protect against persisting fatigue following TBI. The study approach acknowledges that fatigue after neurological illness is the result of complex interplays between general individual predispositions and etiology-specific factors. A better understanding of these mechanisms is a prerequisite for personalized treatment and development of empirically based randomized controlled intervention studies. This approach has relevance to other clinical conditions as well. The long-term aim is to ensure accurate diagnosis, improve treatment and rehabilitation, and to contribute to knowledge based clinical decision-making both within specialized and community based rehabilitation settings.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of INCMGA00012 in participants with locally advanced or metastatic squamous carcinoma of the anal canal (SCAC) who have progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy.
This study evaluates the effect of additional hyperbaric oxygen therapy after lower extremity amputation. The patients will be randomized after amputation to either a treatment group receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy, or control group.
Lifestyle intervention and physical capacity in patients with morbid Obesity (LEICO)
The effect of lifestyle treatment on physical capacity, maximal strength, eating behavior and quality of life in patients with morbid obesity (LIFETIME)
The main goal of this study is to improve the outcome of children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia with high risk first relapse by optimization of treatment strategies within a large international trial and the integration of new agents.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the prevalence of penicillin allergy, evaluate the diagnostic value of the allergologic work-up used in the study, and the health effects of penicillin allergy.
This is an open-label, single arm, Phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of avapritinib (BLU-285) in patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis (AdvSM), including patients with aggressive SM (ASM), SM with associated hematologic neoplasm (SM-AHN), and mast cell leukemia (MCL)
This study evaluates if hand therapy have an impact on the patients' preformance of and satisfaction with everyday activities or not following collagenase injection treatment for Dupuytren's contracture. Differences on this between patients with contracted proximal interphalangeal joint(s) and patients with affected metacarpophalangeal joint(s) only, will also be investigated. Two equal sized groups will either receive hand therapy or no treatment following the injection and extension procedure.
