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 assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) combination therapy in participants with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). There will be ten cohorts in this study: Cohort A will receive pembrolizumab + olaparib, Cohort B will receive pembrolizumab + docetaxel + prednisone, Cohort C will receive pembrolizumab + enzalutamide, Cohort D will receive pembrolizumab + abiraterone + prednisone Cohort E will receive pembrolizumab+lenvatinib, Cohort F will receive pembrolizumab+lenvatinib, Cohort G will receive pembrolizumab/vibostolimab coformulation (MK-7684A), Cohort H will receive pembrolizumab/vibostolimab coformulation, Cohort I will receive pembrolizumab+carboplatin+etoposide in Arm 1 and carboplatin+etoposide in Arm 2 and Cohort J will receive belzutifan in Arm1 and Pembrolizumab+belzutifan in Arm 2. Outcome measures will be assessed individually for each cohort.
The purpose of this prospective, multicenter, open-label, efficacy, and safety study is to assess the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab in participants with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) who have had a suboptimal response to an adequate course of a Disease-Modifying Treatment (DMT). The study will consist of a Screening period (up to 4 weeks), an Open-label treatment period (96 weeks; with last dose administered at Week 72), and a Follow-up period of at least 2 years.
The primary objective of the the trial is to establish one of three study arms, as future standard based on the comparison of the investigator-assessed failure-free survival.
Patients who have received antibiotics and thereafter developed diarrhea are investigated for presence of Clostridium difficile toxin. Primary treatment is given with oral metronidazole/vancomycin. In case of relapse, secondary treatment is given with either cultured gut microbiota rectally or oral vancomycin in sequence. In those cases where secondary treatment with vancomycin fails cultured gut microbiota is given as final treatment. As an extension treatment, all failures were treated with cluttered gut microbiota through the upper route. In both cases As an alternative cultured gut microbiota may be given via the duodenal route. Follow-up is carried out after 7, 30 and 90 days with interview and stool collection for analysis of Clostridium difficile.
The study is designed to substantiate the efficacy of Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) in the heart failure population with ejection fraction ranging between 25 and 45%. The study is designed in an adaptive manner to ensure proper statistical significance and power of the primary efficacy evaluation.
Patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are treated with microbiota from a human intestinal anaerobic sample cultured for decades. Patients are recruited consecutively with symptoms of IBS and serve as their own controls. After an observation time of 4 weeks, patients are recruited for a 1-week run-in and then given the cultured fecal microbiota by the duodenal route via gastroscopy. Two treatments are given within a 1-week interval. Assessment of symptoms are made before and 4 weeks after the last treatment (at 6 weeks). Additionally, fecal samples are collected for bacterial 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) analysis and bacterial functional parameters (microflora-associated characteristics).
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of niraparib in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair anomalies.
The objective of the REPRISE EDGE study is to confirm the acute performance and safety of the LOTUS Edge™ Valve System when used with the Lotus™ or iSleeve™ Introducer Set for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in symptomatic patients with severe calcific aortic stenosis who are considered high risk for surgical valve replacement.
Patients may evolve pseudocysts of the pancreas secondary to a severe pancreatitis. In case of a symptomatic or infected pseudocyst, a therapeutic drainage of the cyst is indicated. In modern medicine the preferred way to perform such a drainage is by the means of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). It is not precisely elucidated how this EUS-procedure should be performed in different scenarios. The cyst appearance and the drainage stents and/or technique may impact the clinical outcome. This study is a prospective, single-center observational study on the outcome after EUS-guided drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is among the most disabling psychiatric disorders as more than 40% of patients are resistant to the standard pharmacological and psychotherapy approaches and about 10% show severe disability and require institutionalization. These resistant patients may benefit from new surgical therapeutic approaches such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) using high frequency stimulation of specific cerebral regions to modulate neural networks. Although promising, these results need nevertheless to be replicated and confirmed within a larger cohort of patients and considering a different main objective, instead of clinical improvement only. Indeed, despite a positive treatment response, adaptive functioning and quality of life may continue to be negatively impacted in OCD. Thus beyond symptom reduction, health-related quality of life (QoL) represents a more important objective of a treatment, as it includes both the individual's functional status and the individual's subjective perception of the impact of the illness on the patient's life. STN DBS induces significant clinical improvement, which may not be proportional to the QoL gain. Consequently, QoL appears to be a better outcome to target in the coming studies than clinical improvement alone. THe investigators thus propose a prospective study assessing the QoL changes of resistant OCD patients under STN DBS+BMT versus Best Medical Treatment (BMT) at 12 months, in order to assess the DBS induced gain in QoL in BMT-managed patients versus BMT alone.
