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.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled Phase 2b study, divided in 2 parts: - The main part of the study investigates the efficacy and safety of the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP), intravaginally administered in glass syringes, on postmenopausal women with vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms. - The exploratory part of the study investigates the efficacy and safety of the IMP, intravaginally administered in a laminate tube, on postmenopausal women with vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms. A comparison of plasma levels of oxytocin when the IMP is administered by 2 different applicators will be investigated in a sub-group of patients. In the main part, 160 subjects are enrolled and randomized to 2 different groups; 80 subjects receiving IMP and 80 subjects receiving placebo, in glass syringes. In the exploratory part of the study, 40 patients will be enrolled and randomized to 2 different groups; 30 subjects receiving IMP and 10 patients receiving placebo, in laminate tubes. The study is conducted at 3 sites in Sweden, and comprises 5 visits: screening visit (Visit 0), randomization visit (Visit 1; Day 0), treatment follow-up visit (Visit 2; Week 4), end of treatment visit (Visit 3; Week 12) and a telephone follow-up visit (Visit 4; Week 14). All patients self-administer the IMP once daily for 12 weeks.
The primary objective of the trial is the confirmation of the efficacy of apraglutide to evaluate the efficacy of weekly subcutaneous apraglutide in reducing parenteral support dependency.
Intraoperative stress among the surgical team can be a threat to patient safety and good teamwork. During surgery, surgeons often work under stressful conditions. Reducing intraoperative stress for surgeons could benefit surgeons and subsequently patients. Based on the hypothesis that an intraoperative pause including a sugar-containing drink would decrease surgeon's stress levels, the aim of this study is to compare stress levels, in relation to intraoperative stress and how this is affected by a pause including a sugar-containing drink in simulated operations.
Objectives: To investigate the effect on pain of a stress reducing treatment that combine Internet based cognitive behavioral therapy (I-CBT) and physiotherapy in persons with chronic widespread pain (CWP) and to examine factors predicting potential improvement. Methods: 200 persons with CWP will be recruited from different parts of Region Västra Götaland (VGR) in Sweden, and randomized into two groups. Group 1: Combined intervention of stress reducing I-CBT and Physiotherapy. Group 2: Physiotherapy only. The participants complete a battery of questionnaires of symptoms and health related aspects at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months. Interventions will take place at local rehabilitation centers in VGR.
The 8-12 fold higher risk for sisters and brothers of patients with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) to develop AAA compared to persons in the population is well known in the scientific community. Recently the value of the screening program for siblings has been analyzed and is shown to be highly cost-efficient, similar to the population based screening of 65-year old men for AAA. Most importantly detection of siblings also adresses and includes women at risk. The adult offsprings to AAA patient would hypothetically bear the same risk of AAA as siblings. This has never been evaluated scientifically due to the practical difficulties in tracking the offspring and inviting them to screening at an age when they are at risk of AAA-disease. In Sweden, the unique multigeneration registry exists which could support such detection, with the possibility to track adult offspring to patients, and investigate the true contemporary prevalence in them. The DAAAD project aims at investigating the prevalence in adult offspring parallel to developing a model for such a selective screening program
This study evaluates the effect of intramuscular injected methylprednisolone treating birch pollen induced rhinitis compared to placebo.
The study will collect information about pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability following a single dose of GS-248 in two different oral solid formulations in capsules to healthy subjects. It will also collect information about pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability following a single dose of one of the two formulations of GS-248 in fed condition.
Karma CREME-1 consisted of 90 participants from the Karma Cohort. The major focus of the pilot trial was to estimate time to mammographic density change. The primary objective was to determine the effect size of the breast density change between topical placebo and two doses of topical endoxifen.
The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility and efficacy of Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for adolescents (13 - 17 years) with sleep problems (ICBT-I). All participants will receive ICBT-I for six weeks. The investigators will also evaluate the effect of the intervention on comorbid psychiatric symptoms and function.
A retrospective case-control study. To evaluate if early surgery within 24hours of troch or subtrochanteric hip fractures using intramedullary nailing is safe in patients on warfarin treatment after fast reversal of the warfarin effect
