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 study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MK-6194 in participants with non-segmental vitiligo. The primary hypothesis is that at least 1 MK-6194 dose is superior to placebo with regards to percent change from baseline in Facial Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (F-VASI) at Week 24.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mavacamten impact on myocardial structure with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in adult participants with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) [New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class II or III].
This is a Phase III, 2-arm, randomised, open-label, multicentre, global study assessing the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Dato-DXd plus durvalumab followed by adjuvant durvalumab with or without chemotherapy compared with neoadjuvant pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated TNBC or hormone receptor-low/HER2-negative breast cancer.
This is a phase 3, randomized, controlled study of IMC-F106C plus nivolumab compared to standard nivolumab regimens in HLA-A*02:01-positive participants with previously untreated advanced melanoma.
The aim of this study is to generate evidence regarding hypophosphatemia after iron infusion in lung transplant recipients in context of anemia and/or iron deficiency.
This project focuses on motor development, muscle growth and muscle activity. Using advanced, instrumented tests such as , the link between muscles and the movement characteristics will be studied. In addition, the evolution of these neuro-biomechanical determinants during the first year of life will be investigated. The examinations are planned for a group of high-risk infants (e.g. premature birth, cases of asphyxia, etc.) compared with a group of infants with typical development.
The aim of this study is to test the efficacy of the two long-acting thiazide-like diuretics indapamide and chlorthalidone in reducing urine supersaturation for calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate compared to the short-acting thiazide diuretic hydrochlorothiazide for the prevention of calcium-containing kidney stones.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if lavender essential oil chest wraps relieve cough in infants with bronchiolitis compared to standard care. Furthermore, the researchers will evaluate if breathing difficulties, nighttime awakening and impact on parents will be improved by the lavender oil chest wraps. Infants will be randomized to receive standard care with the addition of lavender oil chest wraps or to receive standard care alone. The study will take place in two locations in Switzerland, at the Geneva University Hospital and the Fribourg Cantonal Hospital.
The present study seeks to assess differences in feasibility and acceptability of music therapy played live and listening to a recording thereof at the palliative care ward of the University Hospital Zurich. As a secondary objective the investigators aim to extend the limited findings on the putative effect of music therapy in palliative care populations derived from objective measures of human autonomic response combined with subjective psychological outcomes to support evidence-based medicine. The investigators will implement a commercially available tracker, the wristband 287-2 by Corsano, to investigate multiple simultaneous biomarkers of autonomic response to music therapy and a recording thereof, such as heart rate, heart rate variability, electrodermal activity and distal body temperature. To investigate subjective quality of life and psychological outcomes, the investigators will administer highly validated and widely used questionnaires, namely the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire 15 Palliative Care, the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale.
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a very common health problem during pregnancy and intravenous (IV) iron substitution has become part of routine management. Recent studies have raised concerns about association of IV iron infusion and development of secondary transitory hypophosphatemia (HP) in adults including pregnant women. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of IV iron administration during pregnancy on newborn's phosphatemia. The investigators conducted a prospective, single-center, observational study in the Geneva University Hospitals (HUG), from September 2022 to March 2023. Pregnant women treated either with IV iron or with oral iron during pregnancy were included. At delivery, a maternal blood sample to assess hemoglobin, hematocrit, ferritin, phosphate and calcium and an umbilical cord blood sample to assess levels of phosphate and calcium were collected. Difference in demographics and clinical characteristics between the two groups were explored using univariate analyses. Multivariate analyses were performed to test the contribution of IV iron substitution on cord blood phosphatemia and calcemia, considering potential confounding factors. Neonatal HP was defined as a phosphate level lower than 1.3 mmol/L.
