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 aim is to study the immune response to conjugated pneumococcal vaccination (Prevenar13) in Immunoglobulin G-deficient patients and healthy controls. Our hypothesis is that the antibody response will be impaired in patients as compared with controls. In contrast, we postulate that the cellular immune response will be intact.
This study is intended to explore differences in oncologic and surgical safety between robotic assisted laparoscopy and conventional abdominal surgery for high risk endometrial cancer.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of niraparib as maintenance in platinum sensitive ovarian cancer patients who have either gBRCAmut or a tumor with high-grade serous histology and who have responded to their most recent chemotherapy containing a platinum agent. Niraparib is an orally active PARP inhibitor. Niraparib or placebo (in a 2:1 ratio) will be administered once daily continuously during a 28-day cycle. Health-related quality of life will be measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Ovarian Symptom Index (FOSI), European Quality of Life scale, 5-Dimensions (EQ-5D), and a neuropathy questionnaire. Safety and tolerability will be assessed by clinical review of adverse events (AEs), physical examinations, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and safety laboratory values. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy of niraparib as maintenance therapy in patients who have platinum sensitive ovarian cancer as assessed by the prolongation of progression free survival (PFS).
This study aims to analyse the tolerability (side effects and safety) with standard treatment (Javlor®) with the addition of a second anti-tumour drug: sorafenib (Nexavar®). This is the first time this treatment combination is studied in humans. Samples of blood, urine and tumour tissues will be analysed for molecular biomarkers. These biomarkers may potentially help us in the future in predicting whether a patient will benefit or not from the cancer treatment. The study also aims to investigate if a newer imaging method, called PET-CT (positron emission tomography-computed tomography), at an earlier stage (than a normal CT scan) can identify patients who will benefit from the given treatment.
Uterus transplantation, as a possible future treatment for uterine factor infertility, has been developed in animal species during the last decade. The study protocol includes transplantation of the uterus from a live donor (mother, relative, friend) into women with absolute uterine factor infertility (lack of uterus from birth or due to life saving hysterectomy).The recipient will be treated by standard immunosuppression and transfer of embryos (acquired by IVF before surgery) will be attempted when at least 12 months have passed from transplantation. Approval for a case series including up to 10 patients has been acquired.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the PBASE system, in terms of the efficacy of treatment in patients with idiopathic rhinitis.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for procrastination, and to investigate whether it can be delivered via the Internet. Two treatment groups will be used, one with therapist contact and one without, as well as a wait-list control group. It is assumed that the treatment group with therapist contact will be superior to the treatment group receiving no therapist contact since procrastination can be partially explained as a self-regulatory failure. Both treatment groups are presumed to be superior to the wait-list control.
The overarching aim with this study was to develop, implement and evaluate a health promoting programme for people from Finland or the Western Balkan region, who were 70 years of age or older and independent daily activites (1). The aim of the programme was to prevent or delay dependence in daily activities, health decline, and frailty. The study focused on both evaluation and implementation and the data collection finished in 2016
The purpose of this study is to investigate if neurofeedback and working memory training improves core symptoms of ADHD in children and adolescents.
To evaluate the maintenance of efficacy and safety during long-term treatment with brexpiprazole as an adjunctive treatment for adult subjects with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
