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 multicenter phase 3 safety trial in which 5,700 subjects will be assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive 120 μg rLP2086 vaccine in a 0, 2, 6 month schedule or control. The control group will receive HAVRIX vaccine at month 0 and 6 and saline at month 2. All subjects will be followed for 6 months after the last vaccination to assess safety and tolerability.
Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) was previously the standard axillary staging procedure in breast cancer patients. However, ALND is accompanied by a considerable morbidity, and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) evolved as a mean to decrease this morbidity. Between September 2000 and January 2004 breast cancer patients were included in the Swedish Sentinel Node Multicenter Cohort Study with the intent of studying axillary recurrence after negative SLNB for patients in which completion ALND were omitted. The patients were followed prospectively and events (local, regional and distant recurrences and deaths) were registered. The primary endpoint was axillary recurrence and secondary endpoints were disease-free, cancer-specific and overall survival.
Study evaluates the drug-drug interaction between Ticagrelor and Venlafaxine when taken together in healthy volunteers
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral sodium nitrate administration prior to coronary artery bypass surgery can reduce perioperative levels of troponin T. In addition, plasma and urine surrogate markers of renal, hepatic and brain injury will be monitored.
The main aim of this study is to test whether cognitive behavior therapy could be effective in treating obsessive compulsive disorder. Here, the investigators test the in group effects of a 15 week long treatment delivered via the Internet for residents in Stockholm County.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single doses of three different dry powder inhalation formulations of AZD3199 administered via Single Inhalation Device (SID) compared to AZD3199 administered via Turbuhalerâ„¢ Inhaler and compared to placebo in patients with persistent asthma.
Ceplene/IL-2 remission maintenance therapy has been shown to significantly prolong Leukemia Free Survival in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) in first complete remission. This is an international, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the effects of remission maintenance therapy with Ceplene/IL-2 in adult patients with AML in CR1 on specific immune system cells (T and NK cells) and prospectively defined markers of immune response that are known to reflect T and NK cell ability to combat AML.
The aim of this study is to determine whether initiation of ticagrelor as early as in the ambulance setting leads to a rapid reperfusion of the infarct-related artery therefore facilitating the Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) and optimizing the outcome for the patient. The study will assess the efficacy and safety of pre-hospital compared to in-hospital administration of ticagrelor in co-administration with aspirin, on restoring the blood flow in the occluded heart artery and improving the myocardial perfusion in patients suffering from myocardial infarction and planned to have a PCI. Patients can be randomised in either one of the 2 arms: re-hospital ticagrelor arm: Patients will receive a loading dose of 180 mg ticagrelor for the pre-hospital administration and placebo for in-hospital administration. or In-hospital ticagrelor arm: Patients will receive a placebo for pre-hospital administration and 180 mg ticagrelor loading dose for in-hospital administration. Patients are initially managed by ambulance physician/personnel in pre hospital settings. They are then transferred into a Catheterization room to undergo a PCI. After the administration of the loading dose of ticagrelor (double blind), patients will continue on ticagrelor 90 mg bid and be followed in study for 30 days post randomisation.
The purpose of this study is to determine if heart failure subjects whose treatment is assisted by home BNP measurements integrated into a home health management system will have better clinical outcomes than subjects whose treatment includes home health management without BNP or than subjects treated by standard care.
Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) but there is a lack of properly trained CBT therapists. One possible treatment alternative is Internet-based CBT (ICBT) with minimal therapist input. The aim of this study was therefore to evaluate ICBT for OCD.
