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 study evaluates the safety and effect of intralymphatic allergen specific immunotherapy in increasing doses. Patients that have already undergone subcutaneous immunotherapy will be treated with three intralymphatic injections in increasing doses; 1000 SQ-U, 3000 SQ-U and 10 000 SQ-U, or placebo.
This six months non-interventional, observational, post-marketing, multi-center and local study will evaluate the differences in the use of corticosteroids between RA participants receiving TCZ or a TNF-inhibitor, in participants who have discontinued the use of a TNF-inhibitor as their first biological treatment.
Disulfiram (Antabuse®) is a well-tolerated, cheap, generic drug that has been in use since the 1950s to treat alcoholism. There is now an increasing amount of independent preclinical data to support disulfiram as an anticancer agent. The potency of disulfiram as an anticancer agent seems strengthened by copper. The investigators aim is to investigate disulfiram and copper-supplement as add-on treatment in glioblastoma patients with recurrence receiving alkylating chemotherapy.
Air pollution continues to be a key global issue with many governments focusing great attention on air quality legislation because of its harmful environmental and health impacts. Whilst there is much that remains unknown about the mechanisms underlying the negative health effects of air pollution, it is generally acknowledged that air pollution exposure leads to an increase in cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and respiratory mortality and morbidity. The current study will investigate systemic effects during a 72 hour period after a controlled diesel exhaust exposure.
The test group consisted of eighteen subjects with hyposalivation used probiotic tablets (≥ 4/day) and gel (once a week) (streptococci, bicarbonate and carbamide) for 3 months and 9 used placebo tablets and gel. The salivary secretion rates were measured and microbial samples collected and analysed using cultivation technique twice both at baseline and at the 3-month follow up (1-2 weeks between the appointments).
To evaluate the accuracy of the Flash Glucose Monitoring system (FGM), Abbot FreeStyle Libre, used today in clinical practice in Sweden in estimating plasma glucose levels. Data will be collected in ambulatory patients with type 1 diabetes to determine safety, accuracy, and reliability.
This study is part of a larger research project known as Swedish Transition Effects Project Supporting Teenagers with chrONic mEdical conditionS (STEPSTONES). This project was created to develop and evaluate transition programs in order to support adolescents with chronic conditions in Sweden. While STEPSTONES has a generic nature, the first transition program that will be evaluated targets adolescents with congenital heart disease (ConHD). This particular study involves a hybrid experimental design, meaning a randomized controlled trial is embedded in a longitudinal, observational study. This type of design will help to test the effectiveness of a transition program in order to empower adolescents with congenital heart disease in the transition to adulthood and check for potential contamination of the comparison group. We will recruit 210 participants: 140 adolescents will be part of the randomized controlled trial (70 in the intervention arm; 70 in the comparison arm), and 70 participants will be assigned to the observational, longitudinal arm of the study, which serves as control group in an intervention-naive center. Over a period of two years, three assessments will be done during which all participants will be asked to answer a set of questionnaires. The intervention to be tested involves patient empowerment, education on their ConHD, dealing with school, health behaviors required to maintain good health, guidance of parents, a person-centered transition plan, among others. The study hypothesis is that adolescents with ConHD who received a structured, person-centered transition program over a 2-year period have a higher patient empowerment score than adolescents who receive usual care.
A4091064 is a multicenter, long-term observational study of subjects from tanezumab interventional studies (regardless of treatment group) who undergo a total knee, hip or shoulder replacement during participation in the study. The study is designed with a total duration of subject follow-up of 24 weeks after the total joint replacement surgery. There will be two methods of data collection utilized in this study: interview by site staff via the telephone and interactive web-response system (or paper if the subject has no access to the internet).
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of vedolizumab versus other biologic agents in participants with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD).
Open-label multi-center, 48 week safety study, consistent with standard practice for long-term safety studies. This one year safety study will utilize CAM2038 q1w (once weekly) and q4w (once monthly) and will have 3 phases: Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up.
