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 present pharmacokinetic (PK)-pharmacodynamic (PD) study will explore the toxicity and antileukemic response during the initial 3 months of individualised therapy of children and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The investigators will on an individual toxicity-titrated basis attempt to increase the dose intensity of the 6-mercaptopurine used in the two-months post-remission treatment phase of lower risk childhood ALL. This will be performed together with continuous PEG-ASP (every 2nd week) and interspersed HD-MTX (5 g/m^2) every 3rd week. Thus, the trial will also test the feasibility of this particular drug combination.
The purpose of this study was to establish the efficacy and safety of two different doses of alemtuzumab (Lemtrada™) as a treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS), in comparison with subcutaneous interferon beta-1a (Rebif®). The study enrolled participants who had received an adequate trial of disease-modifying therapies but experienced at least 1 relapse during prior treatment, and who met a minimum severity of disease as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Participants had monthly laboratory tests and comprehensive testing every 3 months.
To determine if patients who are distressed over having problems getting or maintaining an erection react differently to the medication than those who are not stressed over the issue.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of fesoterodine on overactive bladder symptom improvement when added to ongoing alpha blocker treatment.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of study vaccines 13vPnC and 23vPS in older, healthy subjects who have previously received a dose of 23vPS at least 5 years ago. It will also evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity to a dose of 13vPnC 1 year after the initial dose of study vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to see if OsseoSpeed™ implant 6 mm long is effective for rehabilitation of edentulism and if so, how it compares with OsseoSpeed™ implant 11 mm long. The primary hypothesis is that the alteration in bone level is equal in patients randomized to 6 mm as to patients randomized to 11 mm implants.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether SPD476 is effective in reducing recurrence of diverticulitis.
This 4 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 4 neoadjuvant treatment regimens in female patients with locally advanced, inflammatory or early stage HER2 positive breast cancer. Before surgery, patients will be randomized to one of 4 treatment arms, to receive 4 cycles of a)Herceptin + docetaxel b)Herceptin + docetaxel + pertuzumab c)Herceptin + pertuzumab or 4)pertuzumab + docetaxel. Pertuzumab will be administered at a loading dose of 840mg iv, then 420mg iv 3-weekly, Herceptin at a loading dose of 8mg/kg iv then 6mg/kg 3-weekly, and docetaxel at a dose of 75mg/m2 escalating to 100mg/m2 3-weekly. During the entire pre- and post-surgery period all patients will receive adequate chemotherapy as per standard of care, as well as any surgery and/or radiotherapy as required. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
The study aims to evaluate the effects of adding supervised exercise in supplement to an educational self-management program, and to determine which subgroups would gain effects of the treatment.
