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.
To investigate the effect of metformin on pregnancy complications and pregnancy outcome in the II. and III. trimester of pregnancy in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
A probiotic (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG) supplement to pregnant women the last four weeks of pregnancy and three months after birth is expected to give a 40% reduction in risk of atopic sensitisation and allergic disease at two years of age, compared to placebo.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to compare up to 3 doses of an investigational drug GW501516 to placebo (an inactive pill that looks like GW501516) to see if it is safe, well tolerated and effective in improving (raising) low levels of "good cholesterol", high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), as compared to placebo.
The general aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase to standard treatment during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients suffering from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Patients suffering from congestive heart failure report reduced exercise capacity. This skeletal muscle dysfunction is also detectable when using small muscle groups which should not put any demand on the heart. We hypothesize that congestive heart failure has systemic effects that causes the skeletal muscle dysfunction.
The Ongoing Telmisartan Alone and in combination wiht Ramipril Global Endpoint trial (ONTARGET): The primary objectives are to determine if (a) telmisartan 80mg daily and ramipril 10mg daily combination therapy is more effective in reducing the composite endpoint of Cardiovascular Death (CV) death, Myocardial infarction (MI), stroke or hospitalization for Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) compared with ramipril 10mg alone; and (b) telmisartan 80mg daily is at least as effective as (i.e. not less effective than) ramipril 10mg daily, on this endpoint. Telmisartan Randomised Assessment Study in Angiotension converting Enzyme inhibitor intolerant subjects with Cardiovascular Disease. (TRANSCEND): The primary objective of the study is to determine if treatment with telmisartan 80mg daily is superior to placebo reducing the composite endpoint of Cardiovascular Death (CV), Myocardial Infarction ( MI)I, stroke or hospitalization for Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) in patients who are intolerant to Angiotension Converting Enzyme inhibitors.
The purpose of the trial is to determine if extended-release dipyridamole + aspirin [Aggrenox, Asasa ntin] is superior to clopidogrel [Plavix], and if telmisartan [Micardis, Gliosartan, Kinzal, Kinzalm ono, Predxal, Pritor, Samertan, Telmisartan] is superior to placebo, in the presence of background antihypertensive therapy, in prevention of a second stroke in patients who have recently suffered a stroke and therefore are at high risk of suffering another one.
To collect additional confirmatory data on alteplase(rt-PA) in the European setting and to demonstrate that the treatment of patients between 3 and 4.30 hours of onset of symptoms of acute ischemic stroke with rt-PA compared to placebo-treated patients will result in an improved clinical outcome without increase of fatality rate.
The effects of pactimibe versus placebo on the progression of atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries will be assessed using standard ultrasound techniques.
