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 the study is to determine the efficacy of gefitinib (IressaTM) in combination with radiotherapy on patients with glioblastoma multiforme.
Aripiprazole will show improved effectiveness over the standard of care treatment with one of three atypical antipsychotics (olanzapine, quetiapine and risperidone).
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy between two lipid lowering treatments, rosuvastatin (10-40 mg) and atorvastatin (20-80 mg) in reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels after 16 weeks of treatment in patients with coronary heart disease
The aim of the study is to compare the risk of acromegaly patients developing valvular regurgitation when receiving lanreotide or octreotide
Double blind study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of SSR149744C and select a dose to be further investigated in the maintenance of sinus rhythm after electrical, pharmacological or spontaneous conversion of AF/AFL.
To test the hypothesis that the efficacy and safety of duloxetine has beneficial effects of the reduction of pain severity as measured by the average pain item of the BPI and the PGI-I in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome.
Previously untreated patients with malignant melanoma receive a new chemotherapy drug currently under development. CP-4055 is given intravenously on days 1-5 every four weeks until complete response or disease progression.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy on clinical symptoms, mucosal histology and endoscopic mucosal appearance of two doses of SR140333B against placebo in patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis resistant to treatment with 5-ASA.
In an earlier study, eplerenone was shown to improve survival in patients who had heart failure immediately following a heart attack. However, it is not known how patients with established mild-to-moderate heart failure (NYHA Class II), who have the additional risk of sudden death, will respond if treated with eplerenone. In this trial, eplerenone plus standard heart failure medicines is being compared to placebo plus standard heart failure medicines in terms of an additional ability to prolong life and prevent re-hospitalizations for worsening heart failure in these patients. The Data Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) observed during its conduct of the protocol-specified second interim analysis on the 6th of May, 2010 that the efficacy of eplerenone had met the pre-specified stopping rules in the protocol. As a result of the discussion between the DSMC and the Executive Steering Committee (ESC), the ESC recommended that EMPHASIS-HF should be terminated, Based on the convincing efficacy and the consideration that it would be unethical not to offer this treatment to patients, the ESC recommended that all the patients in the trial should be transferred to open-label eplerenone. The Open Label Extension eplerenone arm will last for 12 months. Eplerenone is not currently approved for the indication studied in this patient population. On May 26, 2010, further enrollment into EMPHASIS-HF was stopped. The amendment is considered to be the most appropriate way to ensure that all the subjects who participated in the double-blind phase of the EMPHASIS-HF trial can be offered treatment with eplerenone
Existing data support the concept that a genetic predisposition for inhibitor development exists. The aim of the Malmö International Brother Study (MIBS) is to evaluate genetic factors associated with the development of inhibitory antibodies in patients with hemophilia.
