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 investigated whether initiation of everolimus together with reduction of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) in maintenance heart or lung transplant patients with renal impairment would improve renal function.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a 5-week intervention program targeted at improving balance and functional skills for people with stroke.
Multiple myeloma is a malignant hematological disease dominated by monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow. Major symptoms are related to the bones due to an increased bone resorption and a decreased bone formation leading to bone pain and increased risk of fractures. The normal osteoclasts are responsible for bone degradation through stimulation from the malignant plasma cells. Bisphosphonates have been shown to inhibit the osteoclast activity but may have serious side-effects due to renal toxicity and the optimal dose have not been established. In a randomized double blinded design it is aim to compare the standard of monthly injections of 90 mg pamidronate with 30 mg. The primary end-point is physical function estimated by EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire at 12 months after starting the treatment in newly diagnosed treatment demanding multiple myeloma. Secondary end-points are skeletal related events, cost-utility analysis, response, response duration and survival and quality of life with respect to fatigue and pain.
GSK233705 is a high-affinity specific muscarinic receptor (mAChR) antagonist which is being developed for once daily treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The long duration of action of GSK233705 when administered via inhalation in animal models supports the potential for use as a once-daily bronchodilator for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
To compare the disease free survival time and safety of sunitinib with placebo in adjuvant treatment patients at high risk of recurrent kidney cancer after surgery.
The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that LY518674, administered for 6 weeks to patients with mild hypertension, reduces Systolic Blood Pressure, compared with placebo.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of Transdermal scopolamine vs. placebo on ship navigation performance under simulated heavy sea conditions.
The aim of this study is to study the effects of GH on body composition, lipid and glucose metabolism, physical performance and safety aspects in adults with PWS.The patients are randomized to either GH or placebo the first year of the study, subsequently followed by two years of GH treatment. the study is performed in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
The purpose of this study is to learn if apixaban can prevent blood clots in the leg (deep vein Thrombosis [DVT]) and lung (pulmonary embolism [PE]) that sometimes occur after knee replacement surgery and to learn how apixaban compares to enoxaparin (Lovenox®) for preventing these clots. The safety of apixaban will also be studied.
The trial compares minilaparotomy (small-incision) cholecystectomy with (key-hole) laparoscopic cholecystectomy by randomly allocating patients with gallbladder disease to two groups of surgeons, each group being trained for one of the two methods.
