There are about 11304 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Denmark. 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 goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study is to determine whether it is possible to gauge the pattern of somatostatin secretion by measuring plasma concentrations of pro-somatostatin 1-64 (a stable peptide that is released in equimolar amounts alongside somatostatin) as a surrogate marker. During the study the release of somatostatin will be manipulated by changing the luminal pH of the stomach. Healthy participants will be studied in a randomized on two occasions. The day before both two study visits participants will ingest a capsule in the morning and a capsule in the evening. On one day the capsule will contain a proton pump inhibitor (Esomeprazol) to elevate the luminal pH of the stomach and on the other day the capsule will be a placebo. On the study days participants will ingest, in the mornng after an overnight fast, a coca cola zero + lemon juice to lower the luminal pH which willelicit the release of somatostatin. Blood samples will be collected before and after the ingestion of coca cola.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a three-week altitude-like cognition training intervention in healthy individuals (substudy 1) and symptomatically stable patients with mood disorders (depression or bipolar disorder; substudy 2). This multi-modal intervention consists of an adaptive cognitive training programme that participants complete while they're inside an altitude-training room with 12% O2, corresponding to 4400 meters altitude. Across substudy 1 and 2, the investigators hypothesize that altitude-like cognition training has a beneficial effect on cognition after three-weeks treatment completion measured with a global cognition composite score (primary outcome measure). Further, the investigators hypothesize that hypoxia and cognition training will yield improved executive functioning after treatment completion and changes in brain activity during working memory in the dorsal prefrontal cortex 4 weeks after treatment completion (secondary outcome measures). In the patient study, the investigators further hypothesize that the intervention will have beneficial effects on daily-life cognition measured in virtual reality (VR) 4 weeks after treatment completion (secondary outcome measure in substudy 2). For exploratory purposes, the study will examine effects on additional measures of cognition, functioning and self-ratings scales (tertiary outcomes). The investigators will compare the combination of altitude-like hypoxia (12%) and cognitive training with (1) hypoxia with no training, (2) cognitive training under normal oxygen levels (normoxia; 20%), and (3) normoxia with no training in healthy individuals (substudy 1). For patients with mood disorders (substudy 2) the effects of altitude-like hypoxia (12%) and cognitive training are compared to treatment as usual (TAU).
The present study will assess the effect and cost-effectiveness of the availability of point-of-care (POC) PCR testing, in respiratory tract infections (RTIs) in general practice, compared with usual care.
The purpose of this study is to assess if adding LY3537982 in combination with standard of care anti-cancer drugs is more effective than standard of care in participants with untreated advanced NSCLC. NSCLC must have a change in a gene called KRAS G12C. Study participation, including follow-up, could last up to 3 years, depending on how you and your lung cancer are doing.
Overweight and obesity are rising in prevalence and becoming a growing threat to public health. Obesity is associated with an increased all-cause mortality, impaired quality of life, and numerous of disorders. Therapeutic strategies against obesity - which include an abundance of dietary and physical training programmes and pharmaceutical drugs to increase energy expenditure or limit appetite or gastro-intestinal fat absorption - have shown limited success on long term weight loss. Thus, overweight and associated conditions is becoming the new normal and there is a need for better understanding gut-to-brain signalling, hormonal and metabolic disturbances in overweight individuals. The purpose of this health science research project is to describe the coinciding plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) profiles of selected biomarkers after co-ingestion of a meal and model pharmaceuticals in patients with overweight and/or type 2 diabetes compared to healthy control individuals.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of Intelligent Physical Exercise Training (IPET) and ergonomic recommendations on musculoskeletal pain among abdominal and pelvic surgeons. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is IPET superior to ergonomic recommendations in rehabilitating or preventing musculoskeletal pain? 12 weeks ahead of trial start, all participants will be familiarized with ergonomic principles in the operating room. In the 20-week trial, the control group is asked to resume practicing and applying the ergonomic principles when they operate. In addition to applying the ergonomic principles, the Intervention group will be asked to perform 50 min. per week of individually tailored physical exercise training. The program is delivered via an application (app).
This is a randomized, parallel group, double-blind Phase 2 study that consists of 2 parts. In Part A the safety of the highest dose-level of frexalimab in adults (age range 18-35 y.o.) will be established. In Part B, a dose-finding study (adolescents and young adults, 12-21 y.o.) evaluating the safety and efficacy of 3 age-adjusted dose-levels of frexalimab in comparison with placebo in participants with newly diagnosed T1D on insulin treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of different dose-levels of frexalimab, by assessment of preservation of endogenous insulin secretion in participants with newly diagnosed T1D aged 12 to 21 years compared with placebo on top of standard insulin therapy, and to determine the dose-response relationship and minimal efficacious dose in Part B. Study details include: - Screening period: at least 3 weeks and up to 5 weeks (Up to 11 days may be required to get investigational medicinal product [IMP] on site. Enrollment date of the participant must take into consideration this constraint.) - Double-blind treatment period (104 weeks): -- Main treatment period: 52 weeks -- Blinded extension: 52 weeks - Safety follow-up: 26 weeks (not applicable for participants entering the open-label study) The treatment duration will be up to 104 weeks, the total study duration will be up to 135 weeks.
Improving personalized cancer treatments and finding the best strategies to treat each patient relies on using new diagnostic technologies. Currently, for colorectal cancer, the methods used to decide who gets additional post-surgery treatment are suboptimal. Some patients get too much treatment, while others do not get enough. There is a new way to explore if there is any cancer left in a patient's body using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detected in blood samples. This can help decide who needs more treatment after surgery. Even though many tests have been developed, it has yet to be determined which test performs best at relevant time points. The GUIDE.MRD consortium is a group of experts, including scientists, technology, and pharmaceutical companies. The consortium is working on creating a reliable standard for the ctDNA tests, validating their clinical utility, and collecting data to help decide on the best treatment for each patient. GUIDE.MRD-01-CRC is a part of the GUIDE.MRD project.
Pregnant women are susceptible to develop periodontitis, but these oral health changes related to pregnancy are often neglected. Periodontitis is accompanied by a low-grade systemic inflammation and can be harmful to the general health of the woman, contribute to pre-term birth and adversely influence the future health and metabolism of the offspring. Despite this, studies indicate that 40% of Danish women in childbearing age do not visit a dentist regularly. The PROBE controlled intervention study will investigate the beneficial effect of treatment of periodontal disease during pregnancy on fetal growth, preterm delivery and birth weight.
A global study to assess the efficacy and tolerability of rilvegostomig compared to placebo in combination with investigator's choice of chemotherapy in participants with BTC after surgical resection with curative intent.
