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 the study is to identify prognostic markers and possible success rate of tolerance induction to peanut allergens in children allergic to peanut.
This study evaluates possible effects of two different NICU designs; by comparing traditional and Family Centered Care in terms of infant nutrition, health and growth, and coping by family.
The primary objective is of the PreventADALL study is to test if primary prevention of allergic diseases is possible by simple and low cost strategies, and secondary to asses the impact of xenobiotic exposure and microbiota in and on the body and the environment on allergic disease development. The secondary objective is an exploratory focus to investigate early life risk factors for development of non-communicable diseases, including asthma and allergic diseases as well as for diseases that may share common risk factors, including cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes. Design: A multi-national population-based prospective birth cohort with a factorial designed randomized controlled intervention trial of two clinical interventions; skin care 0-9 months and early food introduction by 3-4 months, thereafter observation only. Recruitment in three cities (Oslo, Ostfold and Stockholm) of approximately 2500 mother-child pairs is done in two steps; first pregnant women are recruited and enrolled at the 18-weeks ultrasound investigation (n=approximately 2700) and thereafter their new-born babies are included. Randomization into four groups is done by the postal code or "township" to ensure all four intervention-groups within each "township". Visits for biological and environmental sampling, observations and investigations will be at the relevant pediatric departments (at 3-6-12-24-36 months of age) and through childhood into adulthood thereafter, provided sufficient funding.
Persons with coeliac disease treated with a gluten free diet will be asked to give blood for a new diagnostic blood test. In this test investigators will use multimerized HLA bound to different gliadin-peptides (tetramer) and with the help of a flow-cytometer identify (along with other relevant T-cell-markers) gluten specific T-cells. Investigators believe that these cells will be present in persons with coeliac disease regardless of gluten-intake. Investigators will compare their findings with two control groups; Persons on a gluten free diet where celiac disease is excluded (gluten sensitive group) and persons on a gluten containing diet (healthy control group). In the initial and main study investigators will look at HLA DQ2.5 individuals, which comprise >90% of all persons with coeliac disease.
Aims: 1. Evaluate changes in lung function before and after radiotherapy for patients with NSCLC in stage I-III receiving curatively intended radiotherapy 2. To assess the predictive value of pulmonary function tests for the development of radiation pneumonitis after curative radiotherapy 3. To assess biomarkers in blood samples before, during, and after radiotherapy and correlate to the development of radiation pneumonitis 4. Investigate survival
The main objective is to provide original research results that may change clinical practice related to metastatic colorectal cancer. The study will evaluate treatment and patient care at different stages of the disease trajectory and the use of health care for this large group of patients. It will be possible to compare the effectiveness of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and symptomatic treatment given to "real life" patients with the efficacy reported in randomised clinical trials. By using longitudinal information on imaging, biomarkers, clinical staging and place of care it will be possible to improve patient classification at various stages of the disease. Based on this, a more appropriate, individualized treatment for colorectal cancer may be recommended during the phases of the disease trajectory. Participation in this project will not influence the treatment for colorectal cancer. All patients will be treated and followed-up according to current regional and national guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether nivolumab is better than ipilimumab to prevent recurrence of melanoma.
Drug bioavailability and disposition vary according to body weight and weight loss after bariatric surgery. This study evaluates the impact of body weight and weight loss on the pharmacokinetics of various probe drugs, and compares these effects in three groups of patients receiving either a gall bladder operation, gastric bypass or a very low calorie diet.
This study is being performed as a post-approval safety study (PASS), per the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA), to gather data on Translarna (ataluren) safety, effectiveness, and prescription patterns in routine clinical practice.
An open label randomised trial for adults with histologically confirmed measurable metastatic GIST who have received no other treatment for metastatic disease. The study aims to determine if an alternating regimen of imatinib and regorafenib has sufficient activity and safety in comparison to imatinib alone to warrant further evaluation as a first line treatment for metastatic GIST.
