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.
This trial is conducted in Africa, Europe and North America. The purpose of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of liraglutide adjunct to insulin treatment in type 1 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of a combined APR-246 and carboplatin/PLD chemotherapy regimen, compared with carboplatin/PLD chemotherapy regimen alone, in patients with platinum sensitive recurrent high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) with mutated p53. In addition, the study aims to assess the safety profile of the combined APR-246 and carboplatin/PLD chemotherapy regimen compared with carboplatin/PLD chemotherapy regimen alone, to evaluate potential biomarkers, and to assess the biological activity in tumor and surrogate tissues. The trial will enroll up to a maximum of 400 patients.
Fetal Growth Restriction (FGR) is a major obstetric problem, affecting 1.46 million fetuses worldwide each year and contributing to 50% of stillbirths. Severe early onset FGR affects 1 in 500 pregnancies, leading to stillbirth or the need for delivery before 28 weeks gestation. The combination of FGR and prematurity is associated with a significant risk of neonatal mortality and short and long-term complications. Even modest increases in birthweight (e.g from 500 to 600g) and gestation at delivery (e.g from 26 to 27 weeks) are associated with significantly better outcomes but there are currently no treatments. The EVERREST Clinical Trial, funded by the European Commission, aims to develop a treatment which will increase fetal growth in severe early onset FGR. It will use gene therapy injected into the uterine arteries of the mother to increase the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and so increase uterine artery blood flow and fetal growth. The EVERREST prospective study aims to form a clinical database and biobank of pregnancies affected by severe early onset FGR to improve understanding of the condition and serve as a comparison to assess the safety and efficacy of this intervention. The prospective study will take place across four European centers who will later take part in the EVERREST Clinical Trial. Women with singleton fetuses with early onset FGR will be approached to take part in the study. Participating women will provide blood samples, details of their clinical condition, samples of umbilical cord blood, placenta and myometrial and placental bed biopsies at the time of Caesarean section (if needed). Data on short and long-term outcomes of the babies will be collected. All data will be entered onto a central database for eventual use as a comparator for treated women on the EVERREST Clinical Trial, for which separate ethical approval will be sought.
The experimental model is a semi-acute study where the purpose of the study is to evaluate food factors related to colonially derived regulation of glucose metabolism (and related parameters) and satiety in healthy subjects.
This study will assess the long-term safety and efficacy of repeating treatment with MabThera, in combination with methotrexate and steroids, in patients who were previously randomized into studies WA16291 or WA17043. The anticipated time on study treatment is until Mabthera is available on the local market and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
In accordance with the regulatory guidance this registry has been designed to collect information about the long-term safety of Adempas in real clinical practice outside the regulated environment of a controlled clinical study.
An international multicentre, open, comparative, parallel group, prospective clinical investigation with a single 5 year follow up visit.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) on the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients.
Breif summary A keystone in preventing diabetic complications in patients with type 1 diabetes is good glycaemic control. Frequent self-measurements of blood glucose (SMBG) levels has been an essential part of insulin dosing before meals. However, in recent years continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has become a treatment option for notifying the patient on trends in glucose levels and warning when these are estimated to be too high and too low. In some countries today, Sweden among others, CGM is reimbursed in combination with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusions (CSII) in patients with very poor glycaemic control or a history of repeated severe hypoglycaemia in adult type 1 diabetic patients. This is based on existing clinical trials showing a beneficial effect on HbA1c by combining CGM with CSII. However, the majority of adult type 1 diabetic patients are treated with multiple daily insulin injections (MDI). Clinical trial data are sparse on the effect of CGM in adult type 1 diabetic patients treated with MDI, and there are no clinical trial data including only patients on MDI. The aim of the current study is to evaluate effectiveness, safety and treatment satisfaction among adult type 1 diabetic patients on CGM treated with MDI. The design is a 69-week, cross-over clinical trial, including 26 weeks treatment with CGM, 26 weeks treatment with conventional SMBG and a wash-out period of 17 weeks. In total 120 patients will be included at 8 sites in Sweden. The study will have 80% power to detect a 3 mmol/mol (0.3 percentage unit) change in HbA1c resulting from CGM.
Introduction: Honest prognostication and information for patients are important parts of end-of-life care. This study examined whether an educational intervention could increase the proportion of patients who received information about the transition to end-of-life care (ITEOL). Method: Two municipalities (in charge of nursing homes) and two hospitals were randomized to receive an interactive half-day course about ITEOL for physicians and nurses. The proportion of patients who received ITEOL was measured with data from the Swedish Register of Palliative Care (SRPC). Patients were only included if they died an expected death and maintained their ability to express their will until days or hours before their death. Four hospitals and four municipalities were assigned controls, matched by hospital size, population, and proportion of patients receiving ITEOL at baseline.
