There are about 9403 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Switzerland. 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 this clinical study is to evaluate the preliminary safety and effectiveness of using a cortical recording device (ECoG) combined with lumbar targeted epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord to restore voluntary motor functions of lower limbs in participants with chronic spinal cord injury suffering from mobility impairment. The goal is to establish a direct bridge between the motor intention of the participant and the the spinal cord below the lesion, which should not only improve or restore voluntary control of legs movement and support immediate locomotion, but also promote neurological recovery when combined with neurorehabilitation.
The study aims at assessing effectiveness of offering event-driven Doxy PEP and 4CMenB immunization in MSM/TGW at high STI risk. It plans to offer this STI prevention package to all MSM/TGW in the SHCS who are at risk of STI and then comparing 12-months STI incidence between those accepting and those not accepting the prevention package. The proposal further hosts two interesting sub-studies: One assessing potential effect of Doxy PEP on the microbiome and the other one assessing potential impact of Doxy PEP on TP, MG and CT resistance.
To assess the usability, tolerability, and repeatability of the set of VR headset-based tasks.
The goal of this randomized double blind study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of Transversus Thoracis Muscle Plane Block in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with median sternotomy. one group of participants will receive multimodal analgesia plus ultrasound-guided Transversus Thoracis Muscle Plane Block with ropivacaine 0.5 % after induction of general anesthesia, the other group will receive multimodal analgesia without a bloc. The investigators want to know if participants who receive the Transversus Thoracis Muscle Plane Block with ropivacaine have less pain than participants who do not receive a block.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate, if a change in dosing strategy in oral iron supplementation from leads to an improvement of iron absorption and consequently a faster therapy in patients with iron deficiency anemia. The main question the study aims to answer is: Does a treatment effect (measured by change in hemoglobin after 12 weeks of treatment) exist between daily oral iron supplementation and interval administration (every second day)? Participants will receive oral iron supplementation every second day with double the standard dose (intervention group). Researchers will compare this group with the active control group, that receives oral iron supplementation every day with the standard dose. Participants will present for three patient visits (at baseline, after 6 and after 12 weeks of treatment).
This study is being conducted to establish the efficacy of ruxolitinib cream in participants with moderate AD who had an inadequate response to, or are intolerant to, or contraindicated to topical corticosteroid (TCS)s and topical calcineurin inhibitor (TCI)s.
The goal of this observational study is to identify blood biomarkers that could help in the management of paediatric patients with mild TBI. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How can blood biomarkers reduce unnecessary CT scan and reduce the length of stay at the emergency department? 2. How can blood biomarker predict post-concussion symptoms? Participants will have a blood sample taken when they are admitted at emergency department and will receive a questionnaire describing their symptoms 14 days and 3 months after their trauma.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting condition causing inflammation that can affect any part of the gut. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TAK-279 versus placebo in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD). The main aim of this study is to learn if the 3 different doses of TAK-279 reduce bowel inflammation and ulcers in the bowel compared to the placebo after 12 weeks of treatment. Another aim is to compare any medical problems that participants have when they take TAK-279 or placebo and how well the participants tolerate any problems. An endoscopy will be used to check the bowel for inflammation. The participants will be treated with TAK-279 for 52 weeks (1 year). During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 15 times.t
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alnuctamab compared to standard of care regimens in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
The goal of this randomized non-inferiority clinical trial is to investigate whether single-isocenter SBRT using one treatment plan is similarly effective as multiple-isocenter SBRT using multiple treatment plans for multiple extracranial metastases. The main question it aims to answer is: - whether 1-year freedom from local disease progression at the site of treated metastases after single-isocenter SBRT is non-inferior against multiple-isocenter SBRT at the same prescription doses. Cancer patients with multiple extracranial distant metastases will be randomly assigned and treated either with single-isocenter SBRT or multiple-isocenter SBRT.
