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.
Disease progression is typical for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor mutated (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Standard platinum-based chemotherapy offers limited efficacy and an unfavorable safety profile.There is an urgent need for more effective and tolerable therapies for patients with EGFRm NSCLC who have exhausted available targeted therapies. Clinical evidence suggest that patritumab deruxtecan constitutes a promising investigational therapy for patients with EGFRm NSCLC.
The main objective of this experimental trial is to gain further insights into the mechanisms of pain modulation, and more specifically, whether expectations of coping is one of the involved mechanisms. This will be investigated by comparing two different interventions known to influence pain perception; hypnosis and non-invasive stimulation of the vagus nerve, prior to a pain exposure task (hand immersion in cold water). Expectations will be assessed both pre- and post intervention.
The pre-CIN trial is a randomized clinical three-arm trial comparing inflammation and cystoid macular edema for the medication regimens preoperative and postoperative topical NSAIDs to only postoperative topical NSAIDs to postoperative topical NSAIDs and steroids in patients undergoing cataract surgery.
This study will evaluate the long-term safety, efficacy and pharmacodynamics of ELX/TEZ/IVA in participants with cystic fibrosis (CF) with at least 1 non-F508del ELX/TEZ/IVA-responsive CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation.
This study is a treatment protocol with blinatumomab for infants under 1 year old who are diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia with a specific unfavorable genetic alteration. The purpose of the study is to improve the outcome of this disease in infants.
Impaired cognitive function is common among patients with substance use disorder (SUD). This is particularly related to executive functions (EF), which includes abilities like decision-making, consequence analysis and impulse/self-control. EF is recognized as an important determinant of treatment outcome as it is associated with dropout rate, attendance to therapy sessions and absence of relapse following treatment termination. Exercise seem to improve cognitive/executive functions, particularly in individuals with cognitive impairments. Aerobic exercise also affects signaling substances and growth factors known to inhibit neural degeneration, and improves cerebral insulin sensitivity and blood flow, contributing to improved brain function. There is a lack of knowledge regarding how to improve EF in SUD patients, and whether such improvements can benefit other parts of the treatment, such as psychotherapy. Aerobic exercise is a well-recognized and cost-effective intervention for cardiovascular and metabolic health, with promising effects on cognitive/executive functions. A randomized controlled trial will be carried out to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on EF, molecular markers of neuroplasticity and brain function, and treatment outcome in SUD patients. The investigators expect to achieve new knowledge regarding cognitive impairment among SUD patients and to what extent aerobic exercise can improve cognitive abilities and treatment outcome.
The aim of this study is to investigate if the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in colonoscopy improves the polyp detection rate, and if the use of AI has a learning effect.
Kidney failure is common in heart transplant recipients and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Sodium-glucose transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors were developed as antidiabetics but were subsequently shown to reduce the incidence of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and protect renal function in non-diabetics as well as diabetics. However, SGLT2 inhibitors have not been tested in clinical trials in heart transplant recipients. The DAPARHT trial is designed to assess the effect of the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin to prevent deteriorating renal function in heart transplant recipients. Secondary objectives are to assess the impact of treatment on i) weight, ii) glucose homeostasis, iii) proteinuria, iv) the number of rejections, and (v) safety and tolerability. As exploratory outcomes, the investigators will assess the effect of treatment on renal outcomes, clinical events (death, myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke, cancer, and end-stage renal disease), cardiac function, quality of life, and new-onset diabetes.
This study is open to adults with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases (PF-ILDs). People who have a form of PF-ILD other than Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) can join the study. If they already take nintedanib, they can continue treatment throughout the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 helps people with PF-ILD. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of BI 1015550 as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 1015550 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for up to two and a half years. During the first year, they visit the study site 10 times. Afterwards, they visit the study site every 3 months. The doctors regularly test participants' lung function. The results of the lung function tests are compared between the groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is open to adults with a lung disease called Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). People can join the study if they are 40 years or older. If they already take nintedanib or pirfenidone for their IPF, they can continue treatment throughout the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1015550 helps people with IPF. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of BI 1015550 as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo tablets twice a day.
