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 is to characterise the tolerability of Modufolin (arfolitixorin) in combination with 5-FU alone, in combination with 5-FU and Oxaliplatin, in combination with 5-FU and Irinotecan and in combination with 5-FU, Oxaliplatin and Bevacizumab. Another purpose is to investigate 4 doses of Modufolin to identify the best dose for further assessment.
The purpose of this study is to investigate effects of a selected food product rich in polyphenol on cognitive performance and mood.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the performance of the Chordate System, in terms of the prophylactic effect and tolerability of treatment in patients diagnosed with migraine.
The aim of the project is to improve the overall treatment and outcome of renal, pancreas or liver transplanted patients who have encountered a malignancy by a structured treatment program for diagnosis and treatment of the malignancy, optimization of the immunosuppressive treatment, follow-up and evaluation of the program.
In this trial, patients with histologically proven adenocarcinoma of the esophagus or esophagogastric junction noneligible for surgery or chemoradiation with curative intent will be included. Primary objective is to determine the rate of improvement in dysphagia after palliative short course hypofractionated radiotherapy (5 x 4 Gy) followed by chemotherapy consisting of oxaliplatin and fluorouracil. The rate of improvement of dysphagia is evaluated by a 5 graded dysphagia score, and a positive change of at least 1 score is considered to be an improvement.
The overall objective of this project is to study the influence of modern anti-inflammatory treatments in established inflammatory rheumatic diseases (IRD) on immune response elicited by pneumococcal vaccination using 13-valent conjugate vaccine and influenza vaccination. In addition, the aim is to study the clinical aspects of vaccination regarding: tolerability in immunosuppressed patients with IRD, impact on existing rheumatic disease, possible association with onset of new autoimmune diseases, long-term immunity following pneumococcal vaccination, efficacy in preventing invasive pneumococcal diseases and influenza related serious infections. Results from this study are expected to bridge the existing knowledge gap and contribute to body of evidence needed for recommendations and implementation of vaccination program in IRD patients.
This trial will enroll approximately 6,000 patients with recent embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS). Patients will be randomized to dabigatran or acetylsalicyclic acid (ASA) (1:1 ratio) and have visits every three months. The study doctor may prescribe blinded concomitant ASA for pts with coronary artery disease but this is not mandatory. All Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), outcome events will be recorded. The trial will conclude when the required number of stroke events are positively adjudicated which is estimated to take 3 years (including 2.5 years of enrollment).
Continuous positive pressure during anesthetic induction is today not routinely used partly a to the risk of gastric insufflation because of higher ventilatory pressures. However there are conflicting data with improvement of GERD symptoms in CPAP treated OSA patients. The investigators aim to compare the risk of gastric insufflation regarding mask ventilation technique, with or without positive end expiratory pressure. For measurements a High Resolution Impedance Manometry Catheter is used.
This study is intended to compare the proximal migration of the tantalum design (TM) with a cemented cup used in conjunction with bone allografting in cases with major bone loss. A group of patients with good periacetabular bone stock are included to analyse the differences between the tantalum and titanium design regarding risk of loosening and differences in clinical outcome measures. Radiostereometry (RSA) is used to accurately measure migration and rotation of the revision cups.
The purpose of this registry is to document the characteristics and management of patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in routine clinical practice, independent of treatment used. Given the rapidly evolving landscape in mCRPC treatments, there is a need for a current and improved understanding of how these treatments fit into the current treatment paradigm for mCRPC, how they are combined and sequenced, and how their relative effectiveness profiles emerge outside of a clinical trial setting. This will be based on documentation and description of sequencing of treatment initiation, termination, and duration; relative effectiveness of treatments; defined medical resource utilization (MRU) and quality-of-life parameters and follow-up for survival.
