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.
Primary To investigate in patients with relapsed or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck whether progression free survival (PFS) in the arm with cetuximab, paclitaxel and carboplatin based chemotherapy is not markedly worse than PFS in the arm with cetuximab and 5-FU, cisplatin or carboplatin based chemotherapy. Secondary To compare in patients with relapsed or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck the following study variables between both treatment arms: - Best overall response - Duration of response - Time to treatment failure - Overall survival - Safety
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety for 2 different rivaroxaban treatment strategies and one Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA) treatment strategy utilizing various combinations of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) or low-dose aspirin (ASA) or clopidogrel (or prasugrel or ticagrelor).
This was a Non-interventional Prospective Study. Centres enrolled adult patients with partial-onset seizures with or without secondary generalisation for whom the clinician had decided to initiate Eslicarbazepine Acetate (ESL) as an adjunctive therapy prior to the decision to take part in this study. Patients enrolled into the study were not sufficiently controlled with one drug licensed for the use as monotherapy in partial-onset seizures. Patients were seen at baseline and then during normal clinical visits at intervals. Patients in this study were assessed for efficacy and tolerability at baseline and then at least 3 and 6 months after the baseline.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a dose of 95μg sNN0031 after intracerebroventricular administration to patients with Parkinson's disease
The aim of is to test the effects of a model for care (case management) to older people with high healthcare consumption and functional dependency on healthcare consumption, quality of life, functional ability and experiences of care.
The hypothesis of the present study is that quantitative and qualitative oral microflora alterations and changes in antibiotic susceptibility among oral commensal microflora will occur following a single dose administration of amoxicillin.
This study evaluates the effect of different induction courses in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. In the first course patients are randomised to receive either standard anthracycline therapy with mitoxantrone or experimental DaunoXome. In the second course patients are randomised between standard treatment with ADxE (cytarabine, DaunoXome, etoposide) or experimental therapy with FLADx (fludarabine, cytarabine, DaunoXome).
The primary purpose of the study was to compare the antitumor activity of LDK378 versus reference chemotherapy. Patients in the chemotherapy arm were given the option to switch to LDK378 after confirmed progressive disease (PD), while also had the choice to continue with pemetrexed treatment.
The purpose of the study is to investigate wether the use of the Stortz video laryngoscope will render in shorter time for the intubation of obese patients compared with the use of a conventional Macintosh laryngoscope.
Dystrophinopathy is a disease continuum that includes Duchenne muscular dystrophy, which develops in boys. It is caused by a mutation in the gene for dystrophin, a protein that is important for maintaining normal muscle structure and function. Loss of dystrophin causes muscle fragility that leads to weakness and loss of walking ability. A specific type of mutation, called a nonsense (premature stop codon) mutation is the cause of dystrophinopathy in approximately 10-15 percent (%) of boys with the disease. Ataluren is an orally delivered, investigational drug that has the potential to overcome the effects of the nonsense mutation. The main goal of this Phase 3 study is to evaluate the effect of ataluren on walking ability. The effect of ataluren on physical function, quality of life, and activities of daily living will be evaluated. This study will also provide additional information on the long-term safety of ataluren.
