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 randomized, multi-center, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RO4917838 in patients with sub-optimally controlled symptoms of schizophrenia. Patients, on stable treatment with antipsychotics, will be randomized to receive daily oral doses of RO4917838 or matching placebo for 52 weeks, followed by an optional treatment extension for up to 3 years.
The purpose of this study is to assess pain in women randomised to digital or speculum placement of a Foley catheter. Pain during cervical ripening with the Foley catheter is also to be evaluated as well as maternal satisfaction with induction of labour.
This project evaluates the outcomes of a work rehabilitation program, Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO), for women with stress-related disorders. The ReDO intervention focuses on how people compose their everyday lives. The basic idea is that re-structuring of an individual's lifestyle and pattern of daily occupations will lead to a healthier balance between the occupations of everyday life, and that this balance will promote wellness and increased work capacity. The program is group based and comprises 16 weeks. The aim is to evaluate ReDO for women with stress-related disorders. The project, which covers the time period from entering the program to a 12-month follow-up, is a quasi-experimental study. 42 women who entered the program and fitted the selection criteria were included. A matched comparison group was selected among those clients at the Social Insurance Office who get "care-as-usual" (CAU). Both groups are followed prospectively and are compared regarding return to work, sick leave, and different aspects of health and well-being. The hypothesis is that the ReDO group will improve more than the CAU group in all these respects.

The objective of this phase-III trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of sorafenib in combination with capecitabine versus capecitabine in combination with placebo in the treatment of subjects with locally advanced or metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer who are resistant to or have failed prior taxane and an anthracycline or for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated. After signing consent there can be up to 28 days before starting the treatment during which time a number of tests will be carried out which will include tumor evaluations and medical history. The following tests and evaluations will have to be done within 7 days of the start of treatment,on Day 1 of every cycle and at the end of study: Electrocardiogram, blood tests, patient quality of life questionnaires and a complete physical exam and vital signs. Treatment will be given in 21 day cycles with sorafenib/placebo to be taken every day for 21 days and capecitabine to be taken for the first 14 days. Patients will come in weekly for the first 6 weeks and then on Day1 for every cycle after the first 2 cycles. During the weekly visits the subjects will be check for any side effects and blood draws will happen for the study on Day 1 of each cycle. Subjects will be followed for overall survival.
This is a Phase 3 randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study of tasquinimod in asymptomatic to mildly symptomatic patients with metastatic CRPC to confirm the effect of tasquinimod on delaying disease progression compared with placebo. Approximately 1200 eligible patients with metastatic CRPC will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to 1 of 2 treatment groups: Treatment Group A (tasquinimod 0.25, 0.5, or 1 mg/day; n=800) or Treatment Group B (placebo; n=400).
This purpose of this study is to determine if bosutinib reduces the rate of kidney enlargement in subjects with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) entering the study with a total kidney volume greater than or equal to 750 cc and eGFR greater than or equal to 60 mL/min/1.73m2.
The study is investigator initiated. Tumors that gives the narrowing of the bile ducts prevents bile from flowing from the liver to the intestine resulting in jaundice and the risk of bacterial growth in bile with severe infections as a result. Unresectable bile duct strictures have routinely been treated them with plastic stents. The plastic stents have been replaced by self expandable metallic stents. These stents remain open longer for reasons that they have a larger diameter so that the bile flows through more easily. One problem with these stents, however, is that the tumor growing through the wire mesh which forms the wall of the stent. This has led to the development of so-called covered stents. Whether covered stents have longer patency is unclear as well as whether they are as safe. There is reason to believe that covered stents remain open longer, but there may be an increased risk of migration and other complications. The purpose is to prospectively and randomized compare the two stent types. The study endpoint is the clogging of the stent or the patient's death. We also monitor complications, regress time of the jaundice and success rate of stent placement
The aim of this study is to evaluate whether primary stenting with self expanding stent in patients with peripheral arterial disease suffering from stable claudication due to superficial femoral artery disease results in improved patient outcomes, compared to conservative treatment alone as measured by improvement in Quality of Life scores at 12 months after treatment using established surveys. Patients will be followed up 24 months after treatment. Planned recruitment and randomization of 100 patients was completed June 2015.
