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 obtain long-term clinical data from patients approximately 15 years after their first clinical event, who participated in the former BENEFIT 304747 study and were treated at least once within that study. This study will collect clinical information on the disease course, on disability, relapses, cognitive function over time, quality of life, depression, fatigue, resource use, and employment status. In addition, brain MRI is performed.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity of CAN04 both as a monotherapy and in combination with standard of care treatment in subjects with solid cancer tumors. Following completion of the first part, the dose escalation cohorts, and determination of maximum tolerated dose or recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RP2D), safety and tolerability will be further evaluated in an expanded cohort of subjects with pancreatic or lung cancer, as monotherapy or in combination with the standard of care treatment and to identify the RP2D of CAN04 in combination with standard of care. In addition, early signs of efficacy during treatment with CAN04 will be investigated.
Pegylated-asparaginase (PEG-ASP) is an important part of the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Unfortunately 13% of patients develops allergy and further treatment is impossible. Furthermore, 6% of patients have developed antibodies (silent inactivation) and have no effect of the PEG-ASP treatment. Truncated asparaginase therapy is associated with inferior event-free survival outcomes, in particular relapse in central nervous system (CNS). Eryaspase is a new formulation of asparaginase encapsulated in erythrocytes. The erythrocyte membrane protects asparaginase against fast degradation and elimination processes. The encapsulation eliminates the direct somatic contact, and it is hypothesized that this provides the potential to prolong the activity of the enzyme and reduce toxicities.
Aim: To test if there is a relation between deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) dose and clinical effect on Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) Method: 30 patients with moderate to severe MDD without concurrent medication will be randomised to three different treatment protocols of dTMS. Symptom severity of MDD will be quantified before, during and after dTMS.
Background: Back pain and osteoporosis with vertebral fractures are common conditions in elderly women and significantly affect their quality of life. A common complication of osteoporosis are vertebral fractures. Treatment with bone-specific drugs does often not help the pain condition caused by the vertebral fractures even when the progress of the disease has decreased. Vertebral fractures often result in deformation of the spine and poorer quality of life of the individual. The spinal kyphosis also affects the lung function and the effect of the kyphosis itself is severe. Alternative treatments of back pain may lead to reduced drug demand for pain. Physical activity is one of the most important factors that regulates bone mass and can also affect balance and fall risk positively. The back orthosis that we intend to use in the treatment study has been shown in some previous scientific studies to strengthen the muscles in the back and also decrease the pain. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of treatment of back pain in elderly women with an activating functional orthosis versus treatment with a group of physiotherapeutic tools and a control group for a six-month treatment period and follow-up after 12 months from the start of study. The aim was also to study elderly women with osteoporosis and back pain in a follow-up study of a cohort of women at high risk of osteoporotic fractures, with focus on back pain, functional capacity and quality of life. The aim was to study the effect of treatment with activating functional orthosis versus physiotherapeutic treatment in a group and a control group without treatment. The main outcomes will be the experienced perceived back pain and back extensor strength. Additional outcomes will be quality of life, balance, lung function and kyphosis. Biochemical markers for pain will be measured in the RCT (Randomized Controlled Trial). Significance: Evaluation of alternative treatment methods such as exercise by a physiotherapist and treatment with a functional orthosis will give new additional treatment options for our patients. An activating functional orthosis could reduce the use of analgesics and increase the quality of life of the affected women.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if therapist-guided internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) in a stepped-care approach is an effective and cost-effective treatment in reducing OCD symptoms for children and adolescents compared to gold standard treatment (face-to-face CBT).
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that SYD985 [(vic-)trastuzumab duocarmazine] is superior to physician's choice in prolonging progression free survival.
The study will assess the efficacy of a web-based application as a complement to traditional exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation for improvement of secondary prevention outcomes in post-myocardial infarction patients, compared with usual care. The hypothesis is that the intervention enhances patient adherence to lifestyle advice (exercise training, daily physical activity, healthy diet and tobacco abstinence) and medication, resulting in better risk factor control and prognosis as well as increased self-rated health.
Efficacy of probiotics on physical performance
Lower limb immobilization is associated with high risk of complications, i.e. venous thromboembolism (VTE) and failed healing. Pharmacoprophylaxis of VTE is in leg-immobilized patients, however, low- or non-effective and associated with adverse events. Thus, there is a need for novel treatments. This study aims to demonstrate in leg immobilized patients who have suffered an ankle fracture (1000 patients) or an Achilles tendon rupture (400 patients) that adjuvant intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) therapy, which targets impaired vascular flow, compared to treatment-as-usual with plaster cast, reduces VTE incidence and improves healing.
