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 primary objectives of this trial are (a) to demonstrate that the fixed-dose combination T40/A5 or the fixed-dose combination T80/A5 is superior in reducing blood pressure at eight weeks compared with A5 (b) to demonstrate that the fixed-dose combination T40/A5 or the fixed-dose combination T80/A5 is not inferior in reducing blood pressure at eight weeks compared with A10 and (c) to demonstrate that the incidence of oedema on the fixed-dose combination T40/A5 pooled with the fixed-dose combination T80/A5 is superior (less oedema) to A10 in patients who fail to respond adequately to six weeks treatment with A5.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate that clazosentan, administered as a continuous intravenous infusion at 5 mg/h until Day 14 post aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), reduces the incidence of cerebral vasospasm -related morbidity and all-cause mortality within 6 weeks post-aSAH treated by surgical clipping. The primary endpoint of the study is the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm-related morbidity, and mortality of all-causes within 6 weeks post-aSAH, defined by at least one of the following: 1. Death (all causes). 2. New cerebral infarct(s) due to cerebral vasospasm as either the primary or relevant contributing cause, or not adjudicated to be entirely due to causes other than vasospasm. 3. Delayed ischemic neurological deficit (DIND) due to cerebral vasospasm as either the primary or relevant contributing cause, or not adjudicated to be entirely due to causes other than vasospasm. 4. Neurological signs or symptoms (depending on state of consciousness), in the presence of confirmed cerebral vasospasm on angiography (DSA or CTA), leading to the administration of a valid rescue therapy. An independent Critical Events Committee (CEC) will adjudicate whether or not patients meet the primary endpoint and its individual morbidity components.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of AZD0530 on subjects with breast cancer or prostate cancer with metastatic bone disease in comparison to zoledronic acid.
This study will evaluate the dose response relationship among four doses of indacaterol as well as placebo delivered via the TWISTHALER® device.
To determine the safety, efficacy and treatment algorithm(s) of the Maestro System in causing weight loss in obese subjects - This study will provide feasibility data regarding the potential of intra-abdominal vagus nerve down-regulation/block in the treatment of obesity.
Different published studies has shown a possible co-variation between leakage of fructose to the great bowel and exacerbation of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms. The aim of the FINN trial is to study the role of fructose malabsorption in patients with IBS in order to evaluate different diagnostic criteria for fructose malabsorption and at the same time study the effect of diet treatment in this cohort of patients and estimate the prevalence of fructose malabsorption.
The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the outcome of a manual based treatment for children with Selective Mutism
Background: The best treatment of the patella during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is controversial. The implantation of a patellar component adds to the operation time and the costs of the operation.There is a huge variation as to whether the patella is resurfaced or not during TKA. Meta-analysis of prospective, randomised trials might indicate that patellar resurfacing reduces the risk of reoperation and anterior knee pain, but drawing firm conclusions is not possible and additional, high quality randomised trials are required. Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine whether ther is a difference between the two groups in knee pain, functions, patient satisfaction and quality of life after TKA.
This is a randomised, open label multicenter Phase III study comparing the efficacy of neoadjuvant lapatinib plus paclitaxel, versus trastuzumab plus paclitaxel, versus concomitant lapatinib and trastuzumab plus paclitaxel given as neoadjuvant treatment in HER2/ErbB2 over-expressing and/or amplified primary breast cancer. Patients will be randomised to receive either: lapatinib 1500 mg daily, trastuzumab 4 mg/kg intravenous (IV) load followed by 2 mg/kg IV weekly, or lapatinib 1000 mg daily with trastuzumab 4 mg/kg IV load followed by 2 mg/kg IV weekly for a total of 6 weeks. After this biological window, patients on monotherapy arms will continue on the same targeted therapy plus weekly paclitaxel 80 mg/m^2 for a further 12 weeks, up to definitive surgery. In the combination arm, patients will receive lapatinib 750 mg daily in combination with trastuzumab 2 mg/kg IV plus weekly paclitaxel 80mg/m^2 IV for a further 12 weeks, up to definitive surgery. After surgery, patients will receive three courses of adjuvant chemotherapy with 5-Fluorouracil Epirubicin Cyclophosphamide (FEC) followed by the same targeted therapy as in the biological window of the neoadjuvant setting for a further 34 weeks (in the combination arm, lapatinib dose will be 1000 mg daily in combination with trastuzumab). The planned total duration of the anti-HER2 therapy one year. Primary objective is to evaluate and compare the rate of pathological complete response (pCR) at the time of surgery in patients with HER2/ErbB2 overexpressing or amplified operable breast cancer randomised to lapatinib followed by lapatinib plus paclitaxel versus trastuzumab followed by trastuzumab plus paclitaxel versus lapatinib in combination with trastuzumab followed by lapatinib, trastuzumab plus paclitaxel.
The main objective of the study is to examine the relationship between anxiety disorders and neurodevelopmental disorder/delay in children aged 7- 13 years.
