There are about 8563 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. 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.
Brief Summary: This Phase IIb study is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo and active-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, PD, and population PK of vamorolone administered orally at daily doses of 2.0 mg/kg and 6.0 mg/kg versus prednisone 0.75 mg/kg/day and placebo over a Treatment Period of 24 weeks, and to evaluate persistence of effect over a Treatment Period of 48 weeks in ambulant boys ages 4 to <7 years with DMD.
Hip and knee osteoarthritis is one of the leading causes of global disability. There is no cure for the disease, but research and guidelines recommends that patients with osteoarthritis, early after the diagnosis, receive individually adapted physical exercises, information about their disease and about self-management and, if needed, recommendations on weight loss as a core treatment to prevent disability and impairment in health. This core treatment improves symptoms in osteoarthritis by reducing pain and increasing function, and have the potential to delay replacement surgery. In Sweden, core treatment has since 2008, been standardized in a supported self-management programme and evaluation and follow-ups are registered in the National Quality Register BOA (Better management of patients with OsteoArthritis). The course of deterioration in pain and physical functioning among different individuals with osteoarthritis is currently difficult to predict. Factors such as socioeconomic status and comorbidity contribute to progression of the disease, but are not fully established. There is a need for early identification of individuals who have a good prognosis with slow disease development and those that should be recommended joint replacement surgery in the future. Overriding aim of the study is to increase knowledge about the population who has received education and supervised exercises as a core treatment for hip and knee osteoarthritis and been registered in the BOA Register and to identify factors that can predict long-term outcome for this population.
A Single arm, Multicenter, International Trial of Tisotumab Vedotin (HuMax®-TF-ADC) in Previously Treated, Recurrent or Metastatic Cervical Cancer.
The objective of this study is to survey the type and the amount of non-resuscitation fluids that patients with septic shock receives during their first 5 days of ICU admission.
The Medium Cut-Off dialysis (MCO) membrane has been developed to improve middle molecule removal compared to standard high-flux dialysis filters. The major aim of this study is to compare the reduction ratio of middle molecules, during a single hemodialysis session with MCO-filter, compared to hemodiafiltration (HDF) with standard high-flux filter. Secondary aims are to compare the reduction ratio of small and large molecules between the treatments.
This is a Phase I/II, randomised, multicentre, partially double-blind (group 1, 2, 4 and 5), parallel-group study designed to primarily evaluate the safety, tolerability and immune response in older adults (age 50 to 75 years) following Immunose™ FLU vaccination at 5 sites in Sweden. A total of 300 subjects will be randomised to 1 of 7 treatment groups. The hypothesis is that Immunose™ FLU is safe and tolerable and will increase the influenza-specific mucosal immune response in older adults.
Healthy reclining adult volunteers, with Valsalva manoeuver, Muller manoeuver, light continuous positive airway pressure by mask, passive leg raising, and maximal hand-grip. Ultrasound heart images captured before and during.
The aim is to evaluate a novel treatment routine where contact through a smart phone/computer is used for online support for patients suffering from chronic widespread pain (CWP). The outline is that patients are encouraged to perform physical activity during a period of 12 months with online support from a physical therapist.
This study aims to evaluate the benefits of yoga as a 'mind-body' practice, by measuring it's effects on health-related psychological and physiological variables. The study also aims to investigate whether an association exists between subjective (psychological) and objective (physiological) measures, with a particular focus on stress as the primary outcome.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), that is designed to be short, concise and user friendly is compared to applied relaxation techniques as treatment for insomnia comorbid with chronic pain. Both treatments are administered via internet and participants are randomized to ether treatment arm.
