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 this study is to investigate if sentinel lymph node biopsy is a reliable staging tool for breast cancer patients planned for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (=before breast surgery) and if, in that case, it is safe to omit axillary lymph node dissection if the sentinel lymph node is free of metastasis.
The study aim to study whether spinal anesthesia (using: bupivacain, morfin och klonidin) can be better than epidural anesthesia during and after open surgery for renal cell carcinoma. Per- and postoperative pain after spinal anesthesia with klonidin can be reduced and, thus, shorten the hospital stay and rehabilitation of the patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance and safety of ascending doses of mercury, aluminum and palladium metal allergens proposed for inclusion in a metal allergen panel. Optimal dose will be selected based on the lowest dose of each allergen eliciting a positive response in 70-90% of subjects tested.
The purpose of the study is to compare epidural analgesia and intrathecal analgesia for explorative laparotomy through a middle-line incision for gynecological cancer in a fast track program to se if there is any difference in recovery. Length of stay is analyzed together with self-rate quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to determine if favipiravir is effective in reducing the time to resolution of influenza symptoms.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of orally administered telotristat etiprate.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of exercise for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) aged 80 years and older, with special reference to maximum aerobic capacity, muscle endurance, physical functioning, level of physical activity, health related quality of life, anxiety, depression and endothelial function, compared to a control group.
This study will assess different doses and regimens of radium-223 dichloride on the incidence of symptomatic skeletal events. Eligible subjects must have castration resistant prostate cancer with 2 or more skeletal metastases documented within 8 weeks of randomization. Subjects will be randomized to one of 3 treatment arms in a 1:1:1 fashion: a standard regimen of radium-223 dichloride of 50 kBq/kg (55 kBq/kg after implementation of NIST update) injections every month for 6 months, a high dose regimen of 80 kBq/kg (88 kBq/kg after implementation of NIST update)injections every month for 6 months or an extended duration regimen of 50 kBq/kg (55 kBq/kg after implementation of NIST update) injections every month for 12 months. Following the treatment phase, subjects will be followed up every 12 weeks for a minimum of 2 years, at which point they will enter a long term follow-up period during which they are seen every 6 months for up to 7 years after the last dose of radium dichloride. Symptomatic skeletal event and safety endpoints will be assessed at each clinic visit. Pain and analgesic use data will be collected every 4 weeks through Week 48. Additionally, radiological assessments including MRI/CT of the abdomen and pelvis and chest CT, as well as technetium-99 bone scans will be performed at Weeks 8, 16, and 24 and continue every 12 weeks thereafter until disease progression is documented in either the bone or in soft tissue. Radiological imaging will be evaluated by blinded central review.
To compare the clinical outcomes of Endoscopic Lung Volume Reduction (ELVR) using Pulmonx Zephyr Valves vs. Standard of Care (SoC) in the treatment of heterogeneous emphysema subjects in a controlled trial design setting.
Physical activity level is measured at baseline and after 3 and 12 months after structured information and individually adapted exercise for patients with osteoarthritis in hip or knee. The hypothesis of this study is that a supported self management of osteoarthritis program will increase the level of physical activity in patients with osteoarthritis in hip or knee. The second hypothesis is that patients with osteoarthritis in knee will increase their level of physical activity more than patients with osteoarthritis in hip.
