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 objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of the fixed dose combination of telmisartan 80 mg + hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg (T80/H25) alone or in addition to other antihypertensive therapies during open-label, long-term treatment.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the lowering of blood homocysteine levels by treatment with B vitamins can prevent cardiovascular disease
The aim of this study is to evaluate a new way to create CT-like images during intra-operative procedures. We want to prove that the quality and information received from DynaCT is satisfactory in implementing stent-graft in abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Omalizumab will be given as add-on treatment to optimized asthma therapy in patients with severe persistent asthma, who demonstrate inadequate asthma symptom control. Response to omalizumab over time will be assessed by physicians and patients evaluating the overall improvement in control of their asthma. THIS STUDY IS NOT ENROLLING PATIENTS IN THE US.
In order to optimize anti-cytomegalovirus (CMV) treatment with ganciclovir (GCV), in patients with multi organ failure treated with continuous renal replacement therapy (RRT), more information about ganciclovir pharmacokinetics in this setting is needed. The primary objective is to describe the pharmacokinetics of ganciclovir in critically ill patients with acute renal failure treated with continuous renal replacement therapy, with a special emphasis on the extra-renal clearance and distribution volume. Secondary objectives are to investigate if any co-factors, such as serum creatinine, weight, general hydration status, rest function of the native kidneys, etc. can help to describe the pharmacokinetics of GCV in these patients on continuous RRT as well as the relative influence of filtrations and dialysis on GCV elimination during different modalities of the treatment.
Following heart transplantation many patients develop acute renal failure in the early posttransplant phase and some are in need of renal replacement therapy for shorter or longer time. The cause of this acute renal failure is most probably multi factorial but many reports indicate that cyclosporine has a central role in the pathophysiology and it is generally recommended to lower the cyclosporine load to patients developing acute renal failure in this population. Several in vitro studies on renal cells in culture indicate that the primary metabolites of cyclosporine (AM1, AM9, AM4N) are less toxic to the kidney than cyclosporine itself. However, the secondary metabolite AM19 as well as the cyclic metabolites AM1c and AM1c9 has been associated with decreased renal function and nephrotoxicity renal transplant recipients. The primary objective of this pilot study is to investigate if the concentrations of secondary- and cyclic metabolites of cyclosporine (AM19, AM1c, AM1c9) is related to development of acute renal failure in the early posttransplant phase following heart transplantation. Secondary objectives are to investigate associations between genotypes of P-glycoprotein and CYP3A5 and the metabolic pattern of cyclosporine.
The primary objective is to show whether rimonabant reduces the risk of a heart attack (MI), stroke, or death from an MI or stroke in patients with abdominal obesity with other cardiovascular (CV) risk factors. The secondary objective is to show whether rimonabant reduces the risk of MI, stroke, CV death, or CV hospitalization in these patients.
The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of dabigatran etexilate in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in subjects with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer.
This is a study evaluating the long-term safety of infliximab (Remicade)
