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 primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the effect of Elafibranor treatment compared to placebo on 1) histological improvement and 2) all-cause mortality and liver-related outcomes in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and fibrosis.
The purpose of this study is to confirm that the pharmacokinetics of ibrutinib in pediatric participants is consistent with that in adults (part 1) and to assess efficacy (event-free survival [EFS]) of ibrutinib in combination with rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide (RICE) or rituximab, vincristine, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and idarubicin (RVICI) background therapy compared to RICE or RVICI background therapy alone (part 2).
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind study being conducted as a postmarketing requirement to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to evaluate whether there is a lower starting dosage of lenvatinib 24 mg once daily (QD) that provides comparable efficacy but has a better safety profile in participants with radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer RR-DTC with radiographic evidence of disease progression within the prior 12 months.
The novelty with the OPEN study is to evaluate the effects of the simple sit-to-stand exercise during routine care, in combination with an oral protein-rich supplement, on functional status and independence in frail older persons. In this study we will also explore the experiences among older persons in the intervention group as wells as among staff of promoting the sit-to-stand exercise and nutritional supplement to gain knowledge for implementation as a daily routine in nursing homes across Sweden. Hypothesis The main hypothesis of the OPEN study is that physical exercise performed as a daily routine along with an oral protein-rich supplement, will result in improved functional status and independence in everyday life activities and thereby enhance health-related quality of life in older persons living in nursing homes. The primary outcome measure for functional status will be the number of sit-to-stands that the participant is able to complete in 30 seconds. Specific aims Aim I: To study the effects of the sit-to-stand exercise combined with an oral protein-rich supplement on functional and nutritional status, and health-related quality of life, and the frequency and incidence of falls, pressure ulcers and incontinence in older persons living in nursing homes. Furthermore, the cost effectiveness of the combination of the sit to stand exercise and oral protein-rich supplement vs. the control group will also be examined. Aim II: To describe the older persons' perceptions of daily being offered to conduct the sit-to-stand exercise and to drink the nutritional supplement. Aim III: To describe staff's perceptions of supporting the sit-to-stand exercise and the nutritional supplement with older persons living in nursing homes.
This single arm, post-authorisation study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety of pirfenidone in participants with IPF. The enrolment of participants will be completed within approximately 24 months. Participants will receive pirfenidone according to the physician discretion and will be followed for 2 years. Treating physicians will collect pre-specified data at the baseline and every 3 months thereafter, for the duration of the participants' participation in study.
The EuroSIDA study is a prospective observational cohort study of 23,000+ patients followed in 100+ clinics in 35 European countries, Israel and Argentina. The study is the largest pan-European cohort study and few studies of a comparable design are available on a global scale. The EuroSIDA study is an ongoing collaboration and patients have been enrolled into the study through 11 cohorts since 1994. The main objective of the study remains the same as in 1994: to prospectively study, clinical, therapeutic, demographic, virological and laboratory data from HIV-1 positive persons across Europe in order to determine their long-term virological, immunological and clinical outcomes. Historically, EuroSIDA has been crucial in reporting key changes in the HIV epidemic, such as the dramatic changes in morbidity and mortality when combination anti-retroviral therapy (cART) was first introduced. As new anti-HCV treatment is introduced to HIV/HCV co-infected patients, it is important for EuroSIDA to remain in the forefront of investigating the treatment benefits and adverse effects. All study documents, study status, newsletters, scientific publications and presentations are available online and are updated continuously at project website. In general terms, the objective of the EuroSIDA study is to continue a long-term, prospective collection of clinical, laboratory and therapeutic data as well as plasma on a large cohort of consecutive HIV infected patients from across Europe in order to (1) assess the factors associated with the clinical, immunological and virological course of HIV infection and HIV-related co-infections and co-morbidities, and (2) continue to provide and develop a surveillance system to describe temporal changes and regional differences in the clinical course of HIV and HIV-related co-infections and co-morbidities in Europe.
This is an open-label, phase II trial in patients with PSA recurrence after prostatectomy. Patients entering the study will all receive initial 50 Gray (Gy) radiotherapy (25 x 2Gy) to the prostate bed and thereafter be classified as either responders or non-responders depending on PSA response at fifth week of radiotherapy. A 68-Ga- PSMA-PET is done before start of radiotherapy, and analyzed before fifth treatment week in order to identify cancer lesions in patients with poor PSA response. Patients with PSA response after 5 weeks of radiotherapy will not receive any subsequent therapy, whilst patients with poor PSA response may be in need for additional therapy such as radiotherapy to lymph node metastases and/or boost fractions to local recurrence. Patients with more than 3 lymph node metastases or distant metastases will not receive any more radiotherapy, but individualized systemic therapy will be started.
An open randomized control trial investigating the delivery of two levels of inspired oxygen to newborn infants during general anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of entinostat and pembrolizumab can be an effective treatment for patients with melanoma of the eye (uveal melanoma) that has spread to other sites of the body (metastatic disease). Pembrolizumab is an antibody that helps the immune system to attack cancer cells. Although pembrolizumab has proven clinical efficacy in treating patients with metastatic cutaneous melanoma, an effect on metastatic uveal melanoma has not been established. Entinostat is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor that has effects on both cancer cells and immune regulatory cells, thus potentially enhancing the effects of immunotherapy.
The primary aim is to investigate the effectiveness of an Internet-delivered Emotion Regulation Individual Therapy for Adolescents (ERITA) with nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI).
