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.
A randomized controlled study (RCT) aiming to test the effect of a new health literacy intervention for renal transplant recipients, KnowMAP (knowledge management for renal transplant recipients).
In the ProPEL study the effect of a protocol designed for elderly patients about to undergo emergency abdominal surgery will be investigated. The protocol addresses issues of both frailty and ceiling-of -care decisions.
Patients with substance use disorders have low employment rates and are to a large extent on the outside of the ordinary labor market. Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is an evidence based method developed to aid persons with severe mental disorders in obtaining ordinary work. IPS has been used clinically in the addiction field, but has been subject to little research. The trial "From addiction to employment" is a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of an IPS intervention on employment outcome among substance use disorder patients in specialized health care treatment in Oslo, Norway. The study is conducted at the Department for Substance Use Disorder Treatment at Oslo University Hospital. The trial begins to include patients March 1st 2020 and will include for two years, until February 28th 2022.
To investigate and make valid estimates of the occurrence of dementia and the most common subtypes of dementia in Trøndelag, and transfer these figures to estimates of the occurrence of dementia in Norway as a whole, by age, sex and severity of dementia. Furthermore, the proportion of people without dementia diagnosis among those with dementia will be examined. The investigators will further investigate whether there are differences in dementia prevalence between males and females and educational groups and look at factors associated with a lack of diagnosis.
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common motor dysfunction in childhood. Traditionally, diagnosis is set between 12 and 24 months of age. This study will evaluate feasibility of a new screening procedure for early detection of CP in high-risk infants and investigate how such a procedure can be implemented in the Central Norwegian Regional Health Authority (CNRHA). The most accurate method to detect and predict CP at an early age is the General Movement Assessment (GMA). GMA is based upon expert observations of infant spontaneous movements in a video. In Central-Norway such expertise is today only present at St. Olavs Hospital, Trondheim University Hospital. Video recordings by health personnel and parents will be used in follow-up programs within CNRHA for remote expert based GMA. In addition, machine learning models will be applied for automatic detection of CP. Early identification of CP will lead to improved function and increased possibility to direct health care resources to the patients who need it most, independent of geographical and expert based constraints.
The study aims to investigate the effects of double-blinded, randomized placebo-controlled n3-fatty acid supplementation (1000 mg day-1) and 13 weeks of resistance training on muscle function/biology and systemic health in individuals with obesity (BMI>30) and lean individuals (BMI<30)
Brief Summary: Some colorectal liver metastases can only be resected after inducing liver regeneration by portal vein embolization (PVE) to increase size function of the future liver remnant (FLR). While PVE is standard, embolization of portal vein and hepatic veins (PVE/HVE) on one side of the liver may faster and more extensive liver size and function growth. PVE/HVE is a novel procedure and requires a safety and feasibility evaluation in a pretrial (DRAGON1) to then be compared in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to PVE (DRAGON 2).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of INCB099318 in select solid tumors.
Primary Objectives: - Safety run-in: To confirm the recommended dose of isatuximab when combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in participants with high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) - Randomized Phase 3: To demonstrate the clinical benefit of isatuximab in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in the prolongation of progression-free survival when compared to lenalidomide and dexamethasone in subjects with high-risk SMM Secondary Objectives: Safety run-in - To assess overall response rate (ORR) - To assess duration of response (DOR) - To assess minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in participants achieving very good partial response (VGPR) or complete response (CR) - To assess time to diagnostic (SLiM CRAB) progression or death - To assess time to first-line treatment for multiple myeloma (MM) - To assess the potential immunogenicity of isatuximab - Impact of abnormal cytogenetic subtype on participant outcome Randomized Phase 3 - Key Secondary Objectives: To compare between the arms - MRD negativity - Sustained MRD negativity - Second progression-free survival (PFS2) - Overall survival Other Secondary Objectives: To evaluate in both arms - CR rate - ORR - DOR - Time to diagnostic (SLiM CRAB) progression - Time to biochemical progression - Time to first-line treatment for MM - Safety and tolerability - Pharmacokinetics (PK) - Potential of isatuximab immunogenicity - Clinical outcome assessments (COAs)
