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 study is a Swedish historical cohort study in patients prescribed Atacand or Cozaar for hypertension by selected primary care centres. Data will be extracted anonymously from electronic medical records. In addition, data regarding morbidity and mortality will be collected by merging the cohort with the following national registries: the Hospital Discharge Register (Slutenvårdsregistret), the Cause of Death Register and the Heart Intensive Care Admission (RIKS-HIA)
Enthuse M1C is a large phase III clinical trial studying the safety and efficacy of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in combination with docetaxel (Taxotere) in patients with metastatic hormone resistant prostate cancer (HRPC). This clinical trial will test if the Endothelin A Receptor Antagonist ZD4054 (Zibotentan) can further improve survival compared with docetaxel alone. ZD4054 (Zibotentan) is a new type of agent, which is thought to slow tumour growth and spread by blocking Endothelin A receptor activity. This trial will look at the effects of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer patients with bone metastases compared with docetaxel. All patients participating in this clinical trial will receive docetaxel chemotherapy, which is a commonly used chemotherapy to treat prostate cancer in addition to other existing prostate cancer therapies. Half the patients will receive ZD4054 (Zibotentan), and half the patients will receive placebo in addition to docetaxel and other prostate cancer therapy. By participating in this trial there is a 50% chance that patients will receive an agent that may further slow the progression of the tumour. No patients will be deprived of standard prostate cancer therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether alefacept is effective and well tolerated when used with a combination of tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and steroids versus a combination therapy of placebo, tacrolimus and steroids in the prevention of kidney transplant rejection.
The purpose of the study is to measure the effects of AZD1305 on cardiac electrophysiological properties and intracardiac pressures
This is a proof-of-concept study to determine if PH-797804 reduces neuropathic pain associated with post-herpetic neuralgia. Suitable patients will be randomized to receive either PH-797804 or placebo for 4 weeks, during which time they will also record their pain symptoms using various pain scales.
The primary objective of this trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of the fixed dose combinations telmisartan 40 mg / amlodipine 5 mg (T40/A5) or telmisartan 80 mg / amlodipine 5 mg (T80/A5) during long-term open-label treatment.
The current standard Swedish infection prophylaxis in colorectal surgery is intravenously administered cefuroxime and metronidazole. this combination is well studied. The disadvantages of the regimen is "collateral damage" resulting from treatment with a cephalosporine and that the combination also serves as the first line of treatment for abdominal surgical infections. Serval Swedish surgical departments have for some years used a combination of orally administered trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and metronidazole. The combination is economical and believed to be effective but hitherto the outcome have not been properly researched. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of these two regimens in the prevention of infection after elective colorectal surgery.
This trial is conducted in Europe, Oceania and the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to compare two NN1250 (insulin degludec) formulations with each other and with insulin glargine, all in combination with insulin aspart in subjects with type 1 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether TZP-101 is effective in the treatment of symptomatic gastroparesis due to diabetes.
