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.
The primary objective is to evaluate if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with theta burst frequency over dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) is an effective treatment for negative symptoms (anhedonia and avolition) in schizophrenia or depression. Other objectives are to increase the understanding of the underlying neurobiology of negative symptoms and the mechanisms for the treatment effect of rTMS.
This study is the first experience with GSK2982772, a receptor-interacting protein-1 (RIP1) kinase inhibitor, in subjects with active ulcerative colitis (UC). The primary objective will be to investigate the safety and tolerability of repeat oral doses of GSK2982772 60 mg or placebo three times daily for 42 days (Part A) followed by open label with GSK298772 60 mg three times daily for 42 days (Part B). In addition to pharmacokinetics (PK), a number of experimental and clinical endpoints will be employed to obtain information on the pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy in subjects with active UC. Although no formal hypothesis will be tested, these endpoints will enable a broader understanding of the mechanism of action and potential for clinical efficacy of GSK2982772 in UC. Within 30 Days of screening visit, subjects will be randomized to receive either GSK2982772 60 mg or placebo orally three times daily for 42 Days (6 weeks) in a 2:1 ratio in Part A study. Subjects who complete the Part A study will move to open label Part B study to receive GSK2982772 60 mg three times daily for an additional 42 Days (6 weeks). After the open label (Part B) treatment period, subjects will enter the Follow-up period which lasts for 28 Days (+/- 3 Days) post the last administration of study medication. The total duration of participation in the study will be approximately 20 Weeks from screening to the last study visit.
Randomized double-blind parallel group study in patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension to evaluate the effects beyond the blood pressure lowering effect of treatment for 12 weeks with ramipril or doxazosin on hemostatic mechanisms and on endothelial function.
Esophageal pressure measurements are used in to determine chest wall elastance and calculate lung elastance and transpulmonary pressure in mechanically ventilated patients. A dedicated esophageal balloon catheter is then placed in the esophagus to measure tidal variations in esophageal pressure. In this study high resolution solid-state manometry technique was used to provide detailed and continuous measurements of esophageal pressures in the different parts of the esophagus. Measurements were performed during ongoing mechanical ventilation at different levels of endexpiratory pressure.
The purpose of this randomized, actively controlled, double-blind study with prospective data collection was to assess differences between sacubitril/valsartan versus enalapril in increasing exercise capacity and non-sedentary physical activity in HFrEF patients. Physical activity was assessed by the 6 minute walk test, and daily physical activity was continuously measured by means of a wrist-worn accelerometry device from 2 weeks before until 12 weeks after start of study therapy (sacubitril/valsartan or enalapril).
According to the World Health Organization cigarette smoking is today one of the leading single causes of preventable death and morbidity. The electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) has been marketed as a safer alternative to conventional cigarettes, and its global sales continue to grow exponentially each year. Despite growing e-cigarette use, scientific data on health effects are insufficient in some respects and completely lacking in others. Therefore the current study is designed to investigate the effects of active e-cigarette inhalation on the cardiovascular and respiratory systems.
Ph2a study planned to be run at approximately 16-18 sites in 4 EU countries (Denmark, Hungary, Poland and Sweden) enrolling approximately 170 patients to ensure 70 randomized patients with eosinophilic, moderate to severe asthma. The patients will receive 13 once weekly inhaled doses of the study drug. Treatment is initiated on top of their ICS/LABA controller medication, which is then tapered down and withdrawn during a period of 3 weeks and during the last 3 weeks of treatment the study drug is given as monotherapy. SABA is used as reliever medication during the whole study period. Primary endpoint is Loss of asthma control. When the endpoint is met, patients will resume their ICS/LABA, will be followed for an additional 4 weeks and will thereafter discontinue the study.
The objective of the trial is to study whether daily treatment with liraglutide improves endogenous insulin secretion, postpones progression to overt Type 1 diabetes, and is tolerable and safe in subjects aged 10-30 years, who are positive for multiple islet autoantibodies and have dysglycemia.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab 300 mg every 2 weeks (q2w) compared to placebo on a background of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) in reducing nasal congestion (NC)/obstruction severity and endoscopic nasal polyp score (NPS) in participants with bilateral nasal polyps (NP). In addition for Japanese participants, reduction in computed tomography (CT) scan opacification of the sinuses was a co-primary objective. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in improving total symptoms score. - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in improving sense of smell. - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in reducing CT scan opacification of the sinuses (primary objective for Japanese participants). - To evaluate ability of dupilumab in reducing proportion of participants who required treatment with systemic corticosteroids (SCS) or surgery for NP. - To evaluate the effect of dupilumab on participant reported outcomes and health related quality of life. - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab 300 mg q2w up to Week 52. - To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab 300 mg q2w up to Week 24 followed by 300 mg every 4 weeks (q4w) up to Week 52. - To evaluate the effect of dupilumab in the subgroups of participants with prior surgery and comorbid asthma including non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug exacerbated respiratory disease. - To evaluate the safety of dupilumab in participants with bilateral NP. - To evaluate functional dupilumab concentrations (systemic exposure) and incidence of treatment emergent anti-drug antibodies.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of recruitment procedure, intervention including compliance and the collaboration between in- and out patient clinics of preoperative home-based exercise in older people before colorectal surgery.
