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.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known which schedule of docetaxel and prednisone is more effective in treating prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying two different schedules of docetaxel and prednisone to compare how well they work in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
Current strategies for the medical management of transplant patients are largely focused on the prevention and treatment of T-lymphocyte mediated processes. However there is an increasing evidence to suggest that B-lymphocytes have a role in the otherwise classic T-cell mediated rejection of transplants by there ability to act as antigen presenting cells and T-cell activators. Thus there is a significant medical need for effective therapies targeting B cells of transplant patients.One such potential therapy would be to use rituximab, a monoclonal antibody against B-cells in all renal transplant patients. In the present study the efficacy and safety of prophylactic rituximab is studied.
The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy of quetiapine fumarate combined with Cognitive Remediation Therapy (CRT) to conventional treatment by evaluating change in social outcome in patients with schizophrenia.
The purpose of this study is to compare the changes in a proliferation biomarker in subjects receiving Anastrozole or Anastrozole/ZD1839 combination.
The current study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of iv AZD7009 in conversion from AF
To assess the efficacy and safety of PF-3512676 administered in combination with paclitaxel/carboplatin chemotherapy as first-line treatment in patients with locally advanced or metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and to compare it to the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multi-center, placebo-controlled study of tesaglitazar (0.5 and 1 mg) in patients with type 2 diabetes, not adequately controlled on diet and lifestyle advice alone during the run-in period. The study comprises a 6-week single-blind placebo run-in period, followed by 24-week treatment period and a 3-week follow-up period. The study design of GALLANT 2 is identical to GALLANT 22; the blinded study data from GALLANT 2 will be transferred to the GALLANT 22 database and will be analyzed together with the data from GALLANT 22 clinical study.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to assess efficacy and safety of 3 doses of apixaban 5 mg twice a day, 10 mg twice a day and 20 mg once daily versus conventional treatment with low molecular weight heparin or fondaparinux and vitamin K antagonist in the treatment of subjects with acute symptomatic deep-vein thrombosis.
The aim is to evaluate if the resolution of upper abdominal symptoms (pain or burning) during an acid suppressive test trial of esomprazole given daily for 7 days predicts symptoms resolution at the end of a subsequent treatment period of 7 weeks.
This study is being carried out to see if constant 3 days infusion of Nexium is effective in preventing rebleeding after an endoscopic treatment.
