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 determine whether a paleolithic diet improves glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in people with coronary heart disease and impaired glucose tolerance.
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of Topical AmphiMatrix with Nitroglycerin (MQX-503) to relieve Raynaud's symptoms and increase blood flow to the fingers.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of lenalidomide and to define the maximum tolerated escalation dose level (MTEDL) when administered by a stepwise dose-escalation schedule in subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell CLL.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be treated with drugs that kill tumour cells, stop them from dividing, or stop the growth of the blood supply that cancers need to grow and spread. Clinical research has shown that drugs that inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) or epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling can increase overall survival in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Preclinical studies have shown that vandetanib (ZD6474) is an inhibitor of both VEGFR and EGFR signalling. Giving vandetanib may therefore inhibit the growth of cancer cells by blocking their blood supply and by stopping them from dividing. This lung cancer study is to investigate if adding vandetanib to Alimta (pemetrexed) is more effective than Alimta (pemetrexed) alone.
Multiple myeloma is a malignant incurable hematological disease where survival has been significantly improved by high-dose melphalan with autologous stem cell support (ASCT) in younger patients. However, the disease will eventually relapse and new treatment is demanded. Bortezomib is a newly approved drug for treating relapsing multiple myeloma. It has a different biological effect and response even in patients refractory to conventional chemotherapy. The purpose of the study is in a randomized design to investigate if addition of bortezomib by 20 injections during a 4 months period starting 3 month after ASCT can prolong the time to progression compared to patients receiving no consolidation or maintenance therapy.
Rapid MI-ICE-Pilot is designed to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Celsius Controlâ„¢ System (CCS) endovascular catheter to reduce the infarct size resulting from acute anterior myocardial infarction when used in combination with cold saline as an adjunct to immediate percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with an occluded infarct-related artery.
Islets of Langerhans intended for clinical transplantation are labelled with a radioactive tracer. The tracer is retained in viable cells of the transplant. At infusion (transplantation) of the islets into the portal vein the tracer can be followed for two hours with positron emission tomography (PET). Imaging and calculations can give estimates of the proportion of surveying islets and the rate of early destruction. Also the distribution of the islets into the liver can be viewed.
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of a 100 mg dose of saredutant compared to placebo in patients with generalized anxiety disorder. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of saredutant on disability and quality of life in patients with generalized anxiety disorder, and to evaluate blood levels of saredutant.
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study comparing the safety and efficacy of XRP6258 plus prednisone to mitoxantrone plus prednisone in the treatment of hormone refractory metastatic prostate cancer previously treated with a Taxotere®-containing regimen. The primary objective is overall survival. Secondary objectives include progression free survival, overall response rate, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response/progression, pain response/progression, overall safety, and pharmacokinetics. Patients will be treated until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or for a maximum of 10 cycles. Patients will have long-term follow-up for a maximum of up to 2 years.
This study is a multinational study to compare enzastaurin versus placebo in the treatment of patients with brain metastases of lung cancer. Approximately 108 patients will be randomly assigned to receive either enzastaurin or placebo after having completed whole brain radiotherapy.
