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 investigators will measure blood levels of 1,5-anhydroglucitol in children with type 1 diabetes and correlate them with parameters related to functional beta-cell mass in diabetic patients. The values will be compared to those obtained in healthy volunteers. Children with newly diagnosed diabetes as well as children with longstanding disease will be included. The aim of the study is to test the validity of 1,5-anhydroglucitol as a novel biomarker of beta-cell mass and function in type 1 diabetes.
The objective of this study is to demonstrate that higher radiation doses are necessary to induce transmural scar formation which is currently assumed to be the underlying mechanism of successful long-term efficacy of VT treatment and therefore dose-escalation will lead to a significantly reduced long-term VT recurrence rate compared to the currently applied single dose of 25 Gy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety and establish a preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MK-6598 administered as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in adult participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This study will collect real-world clinical and patient reported outcomes (PRO) and diary data from eligible patients with documented Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2+) [globally] or HER2-low [North America only] in routine clinical practice.
A post-market registry evaluating the EmboTrap® Revascularization Device and CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter/ EMBOVAC Aspiration Catheter in acute ischemic stroke patients with confirmed intracranial large vessel occlusion.
This is an international, multicenter study with two components: Registry - A standardized genetic screening and a prospective, standardized, cross-sectional clinical data collection - Enrollment is open to all genes on the RD Rare Gene List Natural History Study - A prospective, standardized, longitudinal Natural History Study - Enrollment opens gene-by-gene, based on funding and within-gene Registry enrollment The study objectives are as follows. Registry Objectives 1. Genotype Characterization 2. Cross-Sectional Phenotype Characterization (within gene) 3. Establish a Link to My Retina Tracker Registry (MRTR) 4. Ancillary Exploratory Studies - Pooling of Genes Natural History Study Objectives 1. Natural History (within gene) 2. Structure-Function Relationship (within gene) 3. Risk Factors for Progression (within gene) 4. Ancillary Exploratory Studies - Pooling of Genes
The overall purpose of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of possible combination antiviral therapy DAA (remdesivir + nirmatrelvir/r)∞ versus the reference monotherapy (nirmatrelvir/r alone) and to assess the efficacy and safety of increasing the nirmatrelvir/r course from 5- to 10 days in immunocompromised patients diagnosed with asymptomatic or mild to moderate COVID-19.
Chronic rejection, more commonly called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), is the leading cause of death beyond the first year post lung transplantation. The diagnosis of BOS is typically made by clinical, physiological, and radiographic parameters. Early detection would be desirable since it allows treatment modification to stop or delay the process. In the last few years there has been a growing interest in lung clearance index (LCI), a measure of lung physiology derived from multiple breath washout tests. LCI is derived from Multiple Breath Washout (MBW) tests. Early detection of BOS with LCI measurement will allow the investigators early recognition of this chronic rejection form and with early institution of the enhanced treatment survival will increase. All paticipants who underwent bilateral lung transplantation at Zurich University Hospital will be included. The measurement will be done 3 months after lung transplantation. Approximately 90 paticipants will be included. The follow-up will be 5 years. If the investigators could detect the development of BOS with this novel method before the clinical deterioration (fall in lung function) the investigators can start the available treatment options before irreversible damage occurs. This might increase overall survival in the study cohort.
The study seeks primarily to determine whether modulation of systemic and testicular sex steroids balance by aromatase inhibitors will positively affect the metabolic health and spermatogenesis of men with Klinefelter syndrome (KFS) as compared to the current state of the art for each issue. Secondary objectives of this study are (i) to unravel the heterogeneity of the reproductive and metabolic phenotype of men with KFS by performing a multi-omic analysis in a large cohort at baseline; (ii) to evaluate the efficacy of semaglutide-induced weight loss to achieve metabolic and reproductive benefit in men with Klinefelter syndrome as compared to standard testosterone replacement; (ii) to assess whether addition of hCG to aromatase inhibitors further increases intratesticular testosterone and promotes spermatogenesis in men with KFS.
This study evaluates a new diagnostic approach based on intracoronary electrocardiogram (icECG) ST-segment shift remission time, denoted as τ-icECG (τ=tau, i.e., the remission half-time fitted by an exponential function to the disappearing ST-segment shift), to be used for PCI guidance.
