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 trial is to study the effects on exercise capacity, physical activity, inflammatory markers and quality of life of supplemental ambulatory oxygen, to be used during physical activity, in patients with COPD who are normoxic at rest but hypoxemic during a six-min walk test. Our hypothesis is that if patients are able to use supplemental oxygen they will be more physically active and thereby improve health related quality of life.
This was a three-arm, randomized, open label, multi-center phase II study investigating the combination of everolimus (10mg daily) with exemestane (25mg daily) versus everolimus (10mg daily) versus capecitabine (1250mg/m2 twice daily for 14 days, 3-week cycle) in patients with estrogen-receptor positive, HER2 negative, advanced breast cancer after recurrence or progression on letrozole or anastrozole.
To compare the clinical outcome (effectiveness) of single inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) controller treatment guided by exhaled NO measurement made at home with usual care asthma management with regard to asthma control (primary outcome), asthma-related quality of life, lung function, airway inflammation, medication use, and asthma events. To understand changes in patient behaviour triggered by daily FENO measurement at home, for example treatment adherence and voluntary allergen exposure.
The aim of the study is to evaluate traditional analgesic therapy after abdominal hysterectomy with single infiltration of local anesthetics in the surgical area at the end of surgery.
This a prospective, non-controlled, open, multi-center study evaluating the reduction of bacteriuria after bladder irrigation with chlorhexidine in spinal cord injured patients with chronic bacteriuria practicing intermittent catheterisation (IC). Patients will be treated with chlorhexidine for bladder irrigation twice daily for a maximum of 7 days. The study hypothesis is that bladder irrigation with chlorhexidine is efficient for a short term reduction of bacteriuria in patients performing intermittent catheterization (IC).
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of QVA149 in patients with moderate to very severe COPD.
Recent studies have shown an increased gastrointestinal reactivity and increased intestinal permeability in IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Probiotic supplementation is known to impact the gastrointestinal immune system possibly by improvement of both the immunologic and the non-immunologic intestinal barrier. Probiotic supplementation should thus theoretically have an effect on IgAN. In this study the investigators will study the efficacy and safety of Lactobacillus reuteri.
This study will evaluate and compare two individualized ranibizumab treatment regimens in patients with neovascular (wet) AMD aiming to achieve and to maintain a maximum visual function benefit, while aiming to avoid unnecessary intravitreal injections. The results will be used to generate further recommendations on functional and anatomical monitoring of the disease and timing of treatment administration for patients with neovascular AMD. In this context, the study will investigate the utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to aid retreatment decisions with ranibizumab.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether continuouse positive airway pressure (CPAP), during induction of anaesthesia in morbidly obese patients, result in higher levels of oxygen in the blood.
To provide data on the long-term safety and tolerability of FTY720 in patients with primary progressive MS when administered via capsule once daily.
