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 evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and early clinical activity of single-agent INCB081776 (Part 1) and INCB081776 in combination with INCMGA00012 (Part 2).
Sacroiliac joint fusion versus sham operasjon for treatment of sacroiliac pain. A prospective double blinded randomized controlled multicentre study.
Phase I/II trial, with the aim of evaluating the efficacy of venetoclax to the backbone of rituximab-lenalidomide in patients with relapsed/refractory MCL.
In 2015 the Norwegian government, after initiative from user organizations, decided to implement medication free inpatient treatment units. The goal is to secure real options to medication for psychiatric illness, and to gather experiences with medication free options. Freedom of choice is a main concern. The projects main aim is to study the outcome of medication free treatments of mental illness compared to treatment as usual, as well as characteristics of the treatment and the treatment population and why patients choose this treatment. Hereunder we aim to document who asks for these kinds of services and why, what kind of treatment they get, how they experience it, and how they respond to this kind of treatment. An important part will be to document whether the goal of increased freedom of choice between real treatment options is fulfilled. Research questions 1. Does medication free treatment differ from treatment as usual? Are there any unique characteristics of the patient group who asks for this kind of treatment? What kind of treatment do they receive during their stay? How do they experience this treatment in comparison to treatment as usual? How is this in relation to the goals about increased freedom of choice? Does use of medication change during and/or after medication free treatment? 2. Why do patients choose medication free treatment? What are their reasons? What experiences lead to this wish? 3. What is the outcome of medication free treatment compared to treatment as usual?
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of molecularly-guided therapy versus standard platinum-containing chemotherapy in participants with poor-prognosis cancer of unknown primary site (CUP; non-specific subset) who have achieved disease control after 3 cycles of first-line platinum based induction chemotherapy.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of two music-based approaches - group music therapy and recreational choir singing - for reducing depression symptoms in people living with dementia. It also examines mechanisms and heterogeneity of treatment effects.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It is characterized by an alternating course between remission and relapse, which necessitates subsequent adjustments in medical therapy. Thus, it is important to have suitable tools to assess disease activity, and currently the reference standard is using ileocolonoscopy. However, ileocolonoscopy causes major patient discomfort and due to logistic reasons, it cannot be performed on a regular basis. High frequency ultrasound (US) is a potentially useful tool to evaluate changes in disease activity in affected bowel segments. Although there are some studies using US in CD patients to construct ultrasonographic scoring systems, there are no validated scores in daily clinical practice. In a recent study by Nylund et al, we used multiple linear regression to select which simple conventional ultrasound parameters that should be included in an ultrasound scoring system (Simple Ultrasound Score of Crohn's Disease (SUS-CD)) using endoscopy as a reference (unpublished data). In this study, we aim to validate this scoring system using an endoscopic score (Simple endoscopic activity score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD)) as reference standard and to assess interobserver variability. The scoring system might be a useful supplement to endoscopy to follow up CD patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether relatlimab in combination with nivolumab is more effective than nivolumab by itself in treating unresectable melanoma or melanoma that has spread.
In many countries a majority of patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis are operated on with decompression plus instrumented fusion, but the scientific evidence for adding fusion is controversial. To evaluate whether micro-decompression alone is as good as (non-inferior to) decompression plus instrumented fusion, a study with data from the Norwegian Registry for Spine Surgery was conducted, now the long-term follow up.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of two workplace interventions (the Riskbruk model and Balance) in reducing risky alcohol consumption, sickness absence and presenteeism. The purpose is to assess whether the Riskbruk model should be implemented in the Norwegian workforce in its entirety, whether the less extensive and costly alternative Balance is sufficient, or if neither one of them show effectiveness compared to usual care.
