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 is a prospective, controlled, randomized, multi-center clinical study of up to 80 patients with full thickness surgical incisions associated with bi-lateral breast procedures. Breast procedures where symmetrical incisions of at least 15cm in length are planned for both breast (bilateral procedure) will be randomised to receive final skin closure of one breast with Prineo (DERMABOND PROTAPE) and the other with intradermal sutures (control). Patients will be evaluated post-operatively at 24 hours (± 6 hours), 7 days (± 1 day), 12 - 25 days, and 90 days (± 10 days).
This is a prospective, controlled, randomized, multi-center clinical study of up to 80 subjects with full thickness surgical incisions. Each incision included in the study will be segmented into two halves; each half will be randomized to receive final skin closure with either Prineo (DERMABOND PROTAPE) or intradermal sutures. Subjects will be evaluated post-operatively at 24 hours (± 6 hours), 7 days (± 1 day), 12 - 25 days, and 90 days (± 10 days).
The von Willebrand Disease Prophylaxis Network (VWD PN) is an international study group formed with the goal of investigating the role of prophylaxis in clinically severe VWD that is non-responsive to other treatment(s).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether denosumab compared to placebo, will reduce the rate of first clinical fracture in women with non-metastatic breast cancer receiving (non-steroidal) aromatase inhibitor therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of Gamma3 intramedullary nails versus sliding hip screws on rate of revision surgery in individuals with inter-trochanteric fractures. Secondary outcomes include fracture healing rates, fracture related complications, and health-related quality of life.
Randomized phase II study to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ZK 230211 (100 mg vs. 25 mg) as second-line endocrine therapy for postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer.Once the cancer has spread beyond the lymph nodes to areas such as e.g. the skin, soft tissues, lung, and liver it is called metastatic breast cancer. Patients who have been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer that has progressed since their previous cancer treatment and that cannot be removed completely by surgery are eligible to be treated within this trial.Treatment with a new drug called Progesterone Receptor Antagonist ZK 230211 (ZK PRA) targets the progesterone receptor which may be expressed on breast cancer tumour cells. Therefore only patients with this progesterone receptor on their tumour cells can be included in this study.Progesterone receptor antagonists (including onapristone) have already shown efficacy in postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer (Klijn et al. 2000). This phase II study investigates the efficacy (proof of concept), safety and tolerability of ZK PRA at two dose levels (25 mg and 100 mg) before initiating pivotal phase III trials.
The aim of the project is to study pathogenetic mechanisms in severe asthma and compare those mechanisms in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in order to test the hypothesis that severe asthma and COPD develop into similar chronic degenerative changes.
To establish the effects of genotropin replacement on cognitive function in patients with severe growth hormone deficiency after traumatic brain injury.
Enthuse M1 is a large phase III clinical trial studying the safety and efficacy of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in patients with hormone resistant prostate cancer and bone metastases. - This clinical trial will test if the Endothelin A Receptor Antagonist ZD4054 (Zibotentan) can improve survival compared with placebo. - ZD4054(Zibotentan) is a new type of agent, which is thought to slow tumour growth and spread by blocking Endothelin A receptor activity. This trial will look at the effects of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer patients with bone metastases. - All patients participating in this clinical trial will receive existing standard prostate cancer treatments in addition to trial therapy. - Half the patients will receive ZD4054 (Zibotentan), and half the patients will receive placebo in addition to standard prostate cancer therapy. By participating in this trial there is a 50% chance that patients will receive an agent that may slow the progression of the tumour. - No patients will be deprived of standard prostate cancer therapy.
RATIONALE: Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Letrozole may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. It is not yet known which regimen of letrozole is more effective in postmenopausal women who have received hormone therapy for early-stage breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two different regimens of letrozole in preventing cancer in postmenopausal women who have received 4-6 years of hormone therapy for hormone receptor-positive, lymph node-positive, early-stage breast cancer.
