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 phase-II trial will investigate the efficacy, safety and the tolerability of a sequential therapy consisting of 4 courses of single agent rituximab followed by 4 courses of R-CHOP chemotherapy in patients with CD20+ posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD). However, responders to rituximab achieving a CR after the first 4 applications of rituximab will go on with rituximab monotherapy and will not receive chemotherapy.
To test whether celecoxib can be used to prevent colon polyp formation in children with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).
This study is designed to provide information on feasibility and reproducibility of barostat assessments of colorectal sensory functions and compliance and their pharmacological modulation
The objective is to evaluate whether once weekly subcutaneous (SC) injection of idrabiotaparinux is at least as efficient to prevent clots in brain and in the other organs than oral international normalized ratio (INR) adjusted-dose warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
Three different techniques for the surgical repair of groin hernias are compared. Focus has been set on operation times, time to full return of functional abilities like walking in stairs etc, and if any technique has more complications than the others. Three years results are presented in the study.
Uterine fibroids are a benign but common condition among women in reproductive age. It is one of the most common reasons for hysterectomy since it often causes bleeding problems sometimes leading to anemia. Several alternative treatment regimens have been investigated that could replace surgery. The antiprogesterone, mifepristone, is one of the most promising drugs that have been tested. In addition to the inhibiting effect on the growth of uterine fibroids antiprogestins have been proposed to have an antiproliferative effect on breast tissue. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effect of mifepristone on the volume of uterine fibroids. The study will also address the effect of mifepristone on the breast tissue
Infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) has been clearly established as the central cause of cervical cancer. Vaccination of pre-teens and adolescents, ideally before sexual debut and thus before exposure to oncogenic HPV, is a rational strategy for prevention of cervical cancer, and so HPV vaccination could complement the existing pre-adolescent/adolescent vaccination programs. Therefore, this Phase IIIb study is designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of co-administering a commercially available vaccine with GSK Biologicals' HPV-16/18 L1 AS04 (Cervarix ®) vaccine as compared to the administration of either vaccine alone. This Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA AA, Sept 2007.
The general aim of this study is to obtain long-term safety and tolerability data on pramipexole extended release (ER), in daily doses from 0.375mg to 4.5mg once daily (qd), in patients who have previously completed a pramipexole double-blind study in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) (248.525 trial).
A 2-year, Multicenter, Open-label, Phase IIIb Extension Study to Assess Bone Mineral Density and Bone Turnover Response to 5 mg Daily Risedronate Treatment in Women with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Who Sequentially Completed Clinical Studies RVE009093, RVE1996077, RVE1998080, and RVE2001079 (NCT01249261)
This study will investigate the efficacy of weekly intravenous obinutuzumab [GA101 (RO5072759)] monotherapy, in patients with relapsed CD20+ indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Patients will be randomized to receive either GA101 or rituximab, given as four weekly infusions. At the conclusion of the initial trial patients may be eligible to continue therapy up to 24 months. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3- 24 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
