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.
Evaluation of the safety and performance of the BOBBY™ Balloon Guide Catheter (BGC) in patients with an acute ischemic stroke treatment, a sudden reduction or termination of the blood circulation of the brain, caused by a clot. Immediate treatment is needed to restore the blood circulation in the brain, performing a mechanical removal of the clot (thrombectomy). To prevent clot particles migrating in other parts of the brain circulation during the thrombectomy, balloon guiding catheters are inserted. The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the balloon guide catheter BOBBY™ by collecting information from patients, treated with a mechanical thrombectomy and the balloon guide catheter (BOBBY™) after acute ischemic stroke
The study is designed as an observational cohort study, aiming to evaluate, whether a structured recording of symptoms by a mobile app contributes insight in the follow-up modalities of ovarian cancer patients.
Proof-of-concept study with a novel nasal spray in chronic rhinitis or chronic sinusitis. The study will involve 25 patients completing the study for a per protocol analysis.
Following the ANRS-APSEC survey, AMEP-EHVA T02 is a longitudinal social science study that will explore the experience of people living with HIV (PLWH) who were offered to participate in the European randomized phase II placebo-controlled trial of vedolizumab with or without therapeutic HIV MVA vaccine including antiretroviral treatment interruption (EHVA T02/ANRS VRI07).
In aSAH high levels of IL-6 (a pro-inflammatory cytokine) in the cerebrospinal fluid, as well as systemically have been linked to the severity grade and the occurrence of vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia caused by vasospasm as well as worse outcome independent of severity grade at time of admission and age. Increased levels of IL-6 increase the probability of unfavourable outcome, as well as the occurrence of delayed ischemic neurological deficit. CytoSorb is an available, and certified medical device intended for use in conditions where elevated levels of cytokines such as IL-6 exist. Its clinical effect lies in the reduction of levels of pro-inflammatory mediators and thereby improving organ function as well as improving hemodynamic stability within hours of treatment initiation. Currently it is primarily used for the treatment of patients with confirmed or imminent respiratory failure who have either an acute lung injury, or acute respiratory distress syndrome, or a severe disease incl. respiratory failure, septic shock, and or multiple organ dysfunction/failure. Until now, effective IL-6 removal in patients suffering from aSAH has not been possible in human and thus has not yet been evaluated. The purpose of this study is to see whether removal of IL-6 in patients with aSAH using CytoSorb is possible, and whether this alters the clinical course. The overall goal of this study is to investigate whether a treatment with CytoSorb removes Interleukin 6 in patients with aSAH, and whether the treatment with CytoSorb alters the clinical course.
The objectives of this study are to confirm safety, performance and clinical benefits of the Anaverse™ Glenoid System and its instrumentation by analysis of standard scoring systems, radiographs and adverse event records.
Evaluating feasibility and safety of the Senhance Surgical System with digital laparoscopy in bariatric surgery.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of lumasiran on the percent change in urinary oxalate excretion in patients with recurrent calcium oxalate kidney stone disease.
This study is open to adults with liver cirrhosis and high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat helps people with this condition. Participants are put into 3 groups randomly, which means by chance. Participants in 2 groups take different doses of Avenciguat as tablets twice a day. Participants in the placebo group take placebo as tablets twice a day. Placebo tablets look like Avenciguat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 8 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 14 times. At 3 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The change in blood pressure is then compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
To evaluate and compare the efficacy of two dosing regimens of oral edaravone in subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), based on the time from the randomization date in Study MT-1186-A02 to at least a 12-point decrease in Revised ALS Functional Rating Score (ALSFRS-R) or death, whichever happens first, over the course of the study or until oral edaravone is commercially available in that country
