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 purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of brigatinib to that of crizotinib in ALK+ locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) participants naive to ALK inhibitors, as evidenced by progression-free survival (PFS).
Many women and men in fertile age are at risk for sexual transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies, and have insufficient knowledge of health promoting lifestyle prior to conception. There is a need to increase awareness among people in fertile age about how sexual risk-taking and unhealthy lifestyle can negatively affect fertility and pregnancy outcomes. Previous studies on preconception health and care have mainly focused on women. The aim of our study was to investigate if Reproductive Life Plan-based counseling with a midwife could increase men's reproductive knowledge. The second aim was to evaluate men's experiences of the intervention.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the persistence of immune response to the HZ vaccine as well as safety up to 10 years after the first dose of initial vaccination course. This study will also assess immune responses after re-vaccination with 2 additional doses of the HZ/su administered at ten years after first dose of initial vaccination course from study Zoster-003 (NCT00434577).
Primary Objective: To compare the efficacy of a new formulation of insulin glargine (HOE901-U300) to Lantus in terms of change of HbA1c from baseline to endpoint (month 6) in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus. . Secondary Objectives: To compare HOE901-U300 and Lantus in terms of: - Percentage of participants reaching target HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG). - To assess the safety of HOE901-U300 including analysis of events of hypoglycemia, events of hyperglycemia with ketosis, and development of anti-insulin-antibodies.
This randomized controlled trial aims to recruit a total of 320 dyads composed by persons with dementia living in community settings and their primary informal caregivers. In the intervention group, persons with dementia will have a home monitoring kit installed in the household while participants in the control group will receive their usual care. The kit includes home leaving sensors, smoke and water leak sensors, bed sensors as well as automatic lights that monitor the individual's behavior. Alerts (text message and/or phone call) will be sent to the caregiver if anything unusual occurs. All study participants will receive three home visits by project administrators that have received project specific training in order to harmonize data collection. These will take place at enrollment and 3 and 12 months following installation of the home kits. At every home visit, a standardized questionnaire will be administered to all study participants to assess their health, quality of life and resource utilization. The primary outcome of this trial is the amount of informal care support provided by primary informal caregivers to the Person with Dementia.
Hypotension will often complicate induction of anaesthesia. The investigators want to test the hypothesis that Target Controlled Infusion, as opposed to Velocity Controlled Infusion, leads to less degree of hypotension.
In this study, glycosaminoglycan (GAG) profiling in subjects diagnosed with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is hypothesized to be useful in monitoring drug response and predict radiological response. To this end, glycosaminoglycan scores based on longitudinal samples of plasma and urine in prospectively enrolled patients will be correlated to radiological response to first-line therapy based on current standard-of-care. A positive correlation indicates that glycosaminoglycan scores can successfully detect patients that are not responding to treatment before the scheduled follow-up in which radiological imaging is performed. Data on the extent of metastasis (number of metastatic sites) will be collected to assess whether glycosaminoglycans correlate accordingly.
In this study, a score based on glycosaminoglycan (GAG) profiling in subjects with suspicion of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is hypothesized to distinguish malignant masses when early actionable clinical decisions are desirable. For example to diagnose early recurrence after surgical treatment; to screen population at risk of RCC; or to distinguish benign masses from RCC before surgical treatment. To this end, plasma and urine GAGs will be measured in a prospective cohort of patients referred to surgical treatment for RCC. The resulting GAG scores are then correlated to post-surgical recurrence, to post-surgical definitive diagnosis and and to tumor size if RCC. In a subset cohort of patients at high risk of RCC recurrence, plasma and urine GAGs will be monitored to observe its correlation with disease recurrence.
The inhibitory effect of low dose GLP-1 is investigated on prandial motility of the stomach, duodenum and jejunum in vivo in humans. Supplementary in vitro studies on the mechanism of action of the GLP-1 inhibition of motility as carried out on muscle strips from the upper gastrointestinal tract in man.
This study will evaluate the role of addition of an anti-angiogenic agent (Nintedanib/placebo) to conventional combination chemotherapy as concomitant and maintenance treatment in primary advanced or with first relapse of endometrial cancer.
