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.
A real-world, nationwide, register-based, randomised trial (RRCT) comparing SGLT2 inhibitors with metformin as standard treatment in early typ 2 diabetes. An open-label trial addressing efficacy with respect to clinically important macro- and microvascular events.
This is a 2 part study. Part 1 is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dostarlimab plus carboplatin-paclitaxel followed by dostarlimab versus placebo plus carboplatin-paclitaxel followed by placebo; and Part 2 is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dostarlimab plus carboplatin-paclitaxel followed by dostarlimab plus niraparib versus placebo plus carboplatin-paclitaxel followed by placebo in participants with recurrent or primary advanced (Stage III or IV) endometrial cancer.
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is one of the leading causes of mortality in the industrialized world. Bystander CPR before arrival of the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) is associated with an increased chance of survival. During the last decade, the best form of bystander CPR has been debated. Chest Compression Only CPR (CO-CPR) has been advocated as a preferable method in situations where the bystander has no previous knowledge in CPR, both because its believed to be equally efficient but also a simplified form of CPR that could lead to a higher incidence of bystander-CPR. In an initiative to increase CPR rates the American Heart Association has launched public campaigns such as the "hands-only CPR" promoting CO-CPR as an option to S-CPR for adult non-asphyxic cardiac arrest. In the 2015 updates of the European resuscitation council guidelines it states that the confidence in the equivalence between the two methods is not sufficient to change current practice. Whether CO-CPR leads to a survival rate no worse than, equally effective, or even superior to standard CPR in situations where the bystander has previous CPR training however remains unclear. This clinical question remains unanswered while millions of people are trained in CPR worldwide each year. The overall purpose with this research project is to investigate whether instructions to perform a simplified form of CPR consisting of compressions only (CO-CPR) to bystanders with prior CPR-training is non-inferior, or better than, standard CPR (S- CPR) in witnessed Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA).
A randomized trial of long-term dosage of rituximab in multiple sclerosis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and antidrug antibody (ADA) response for MEDI8897 in healthy late preterm and term infants who are 35 weeks or greater gestational age and entering their first RSV season.
Primary objective of the study is to establish the incidence of all any catheter related complications in BIP CVC and standard CVC groups in patients requiring CVC. (CVC - Central Venous Catheter; BIP - Bactiguard Infection Protection)
A roll-over study to assess long-term effect in pediatric patients treated with dabrafenib and/or trametinib.
This study is being done to see if tucatinib with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) works better than T-DM1 alone to help patients who have a specific type of breast cancer called HER2 positive breast carcinoma. The breast cancer in this study is either metastatic (spread into other parts of the body) or cannot be removed completely with surgery. Patients in this study will be randomly assigned to get either tucatinib or placebo (a pill with no medicine). This is a blinded study, so neither patients nor their doctors will know whether a patient gets tucatinib or placebo. All patients in the study will get T-DM1, a drug that is often used to treat this cancer. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Patients will swallow tucatinib pills or placebo pills two times every day. Patients will get T-DM1 injections from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle.
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a significant complication following non-cardiac surgery. We sought to evaluate incidence of perioperative MI, its preoperative - and intraoperative - risk factors and outcomes after this complication.
Background: Low back pain (LBP) is among the main causes of long-term sickness absence and is associated with considerable costs for both the individual and society. LBP affects 60-80% of the population and most individuals recover, while about 10-20% develop persistent pain and disability. Women have a higher risk of developing chronic LBP (CLBP) and widespread pain. Purpose: To investigate change in body function, activity, participation and other health related factors in women with CLBP after 13 years and to identify prognostic factors for pain, activity limitation and work ability. Methods: In the present study, all women (n = 131) who were included in the cross-sectional study in 2006 and who were followed-up after 2 years are now invited to the same study-protocol 13 years after the first examination in 2006. The Swedish Ethical Review Authority approved the study. Dnr: 2019-01944, 2019-05-21.
