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 aim of this study is to determine the effect of cultura yoghurt on transit time and digestive discomfort during 2 weeks of treatment in comparison to placebo in healthy women and men.
Investigation of the incidence of endocrine dysfunction following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and to see if this has a relation to CNS lesions as evaluated by MRI and to common symptoms after SAH such as general exhaustion, lack of initiative, increased sleep demand and reduced quality of life.
Delayed nausea is a common problem after high dose chemotherapy for bone marrow transplantation. This study wants to compare standard prophylactic anti-emetic therapy with the same treatment plus the drug aprepitant (Emend). The hypothesis is that addition of Emend will reduce nausea and vomiting.
Rationale: Gathering medical information and tumor samples from patients with male breast cancer may help doctors learn more about the disease. Purpose retrospective part: to perform a large international retrospective analysis of clinical and biological data of male BC patients treated in the participating centers from 1990 to 2010. Purpose prospective part: to create a registry of men with breast cancer for a period of 30 months (starting early 2014).
Anaemia and functional iron deficiency are common conditions in patients with lymphoid malignancies, conditions which reduce significantly the quality of life and increase morbidity and mortality. Traditionally, Erythropoiesis Stimulating Agents (ESAs) have been used, but recently their use has been shown to have a negative impact on overall survival in different oncology populations. Recently published data suggest that intravenous (IV) iron can be effective in anaemia treatment, even without ESAs. This exploratory study is the first clinical project with ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in patients with lymphoid malignancies: the data generated may be used for further evaluations of the drug in larger populations. In this study, 1,000 mg of IV iron as FCM will be administered on the same day or within 24 hours before or after chemotherapy treatment. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of FCM in the correction of haemoglobin levels in anaemic subjects with lymphoid malignancies, undergoing chemotherapy. Secondary objectives aim to describe the safety and tolerability of FCM, and the effect of FCM treatment on iron status variables in subjects suffering from lymphoid malignancies.
The main objective of the trial is to document the efficacy of NGR-hTNF administered at low dose weekly in advanced Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma patients previously treated with a pemetrexed-based chemotherapy regimen.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a treatment of a novel leukapheresis column is safe and effective in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.
This study will assess the safety, tolerability and Abeta-specific antibody response of repeated intra-muscular injections of adjuvanted CAD106 in patients with mild Alzheimer's Disease.
To compare the severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) among treated infants with an untreated control population, matched for gestational age at birth while confirming the dose of rhIGF-1/rhIGFBP-3 is safe and efficacious.
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has been used for over 40 years to treat neuropathic pain. Various clinical studies have shown a beneficial effect of SCS on pain in patients with Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS). Since more than 2 years the 8-contact points Octad lead has been used and replaced the 4-contact points Quad lead. Even though it seems that eight electrodes has potential advantage over the four electrodes in case of lead migration or disease progress, no clinical data have been published on the effectiveness of SCS using the octopolar epidural lead. The Octad study intents to assess the effectiveness and technical performance of SCS with the Octad® lead for treatment of chronic pain. This study is not set up as a comparison study between the Octad lead and other SCS leads, such as the Quad lead, because the Octad lead is used in most eligible FBSS patients as the standard of care lead. The study intends to: 1. evaluate the effectiveness of SCS with the Octad® lead on chronic pain in Failed Back Surgery Syndrome patients after 12 months of treatment. 2. collect safety data for SCS with the Octad® lead in patients with refractory chronic pain.
