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 will examine the effect intravenously administered rigosertib has on the relationship between bone marrow blasts response and overall survival in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients who have 5-30% bone marrow blasts and who progressed on or after treatment with azacitidine or decitabine.
The present study explores whether a simultaneously given hepatitis A vaccine (Epaxal) will have an impact on the immune response to PCV13 (pneumococcal conjugate vaccine; Prevenar13) vaccine in adults. The immune response to PCV13 is measured as levels of serotype specific serum antibodies and their opsonophagocytic activity. The results of volunteers receiving PCV13 and Epaxal will be compared to that in a control groups of adults receiving either hepatitis A or PCV13 vaccines only.
Like most developed countries the population of Sweden is getting older and consequently the number of individuals with chronic diseases will be an increasing challenge for its healthcare system. To improve care of the frail elderly, wards with a coordinated multidisciplinary team and multidisciplinary mobile teams were established several years ago. Treatment and follow up is planned in accordance to the patients' medical, psychological and functional capabilities (Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment = CGA). There are to our knowledge only few studies concerning CGA applicable to Swedish conditions. We plan to conduct a Swedish study that evaluates if care and treatment with a modified CGA-model in an outpatient setting can improve quality of life for frail older people.
This will be a two-stage study to test whether t-VNS using the NEMOS device can activate the CAP and reduce markers of systemic inflammation. Stage A (healthy volunteers) stage B (patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis). Stage A: healthy human volunteers. A randomized, single blind, three-period crossover design comparing the CAP activation effect of 10 minutes (active) versus 60 minutes (active) versus 10 minutes (sham) stimulation with the NEMOS device. CAP activation will be assessed by reduction in the in vitro release of LPS-inducible cytokines from whole blood. Analysis of the reduction in whole blood cytokine release assay after 10 versus 60 minutes of stimulation, and the kinetics of the nadir of the whole blood cytokine release assay will inform the selection of dose duration and sampling time for Stage B. Performing this more extensive exploration of dose duration and kinetics in adults will allow one dose, and a single optimal sampling time in the JIA patients, thus minimizing blood drawing and discomfort in these children. Stage B will be performed in patients with JIA. This will be an open label design examining the effect of the optimal dose duration (either 10 minutes or 60 minutes of stimulation, as determined by results of Stage A). All information regarding Stage B will be registered in a separate registration at clincialtrials.gov. in order to keep accuracy. All details below concerns only Stage A.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether remifentanil influence the pharyngeal phase of swallowing using using pressure and impedance recordings. The purpose is also to compare remifentanil to morphine and younger to elderly volunteers.
The primary aim of the present study is to study the effect of a brief automated alcohol intervention in University students, and if there is a difference in effect between automated brief interventions delivered by internet (WEB) or Interactive Voice Response (IVR), and to study if there is difference in effect between single and repeated interventions.
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to examine the dose range, escalation and efficacy of oral semaglutide in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
The main aim of this study is to find out the long-term safety and effectiveness profile of recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1-84) (rhPTH[1-84]) treatment in participants with chronic hypoparathyroidism under conditions of routine clinical practice. Participants will be treated according to their clinic's standard practice determined by the treating doctors. Each participant will fill out a study questionnaire during a routine doctor visit.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab (SAR231893 / REGN668) in the treatment of bilateral Nasal Polyposis (NP) by assessment of the endoscopic nasal polyp score in comparison to placebo. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate effect of dupilumab with regards to: - symptoms of sinusitis - sinus Computed Tomography (CT) scan - nasal polyp score in the sub-group of patients with co-morbid asthma - Safety and tolerability
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of LCZ696 compared to valsartan in the reduction of cardiovascular death and heart failure(HF) hospitalizations in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction.
