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.
During the COVID-19 pandemic children have been perceived as a group not being especially affected, with less being infected, low symptom burden and low mortality. A small proportion however develop life-threatening hyperinflammation (mis-c) and at least one Danish child has died from this condition. Since the fall of 2020 international awareness has been raised by parents reporting that their children experience gastrointestinal issues, chest pain, headaches, fatigue, joint/muscle pain, sore throat, dizziness, nausea and fever for months following COVID-19 infection. In this study the investigators aim to investigate the proportions of possible long covid in the 45.000 Danish children that has been tested positive for covid-19. The investigators know from the Danish Covid-19 surveillance data that 300 has been admitted to the hospital within the first 2 weeks after diagnosing. However, no knowledge about how many visits the participants have to the ER and GP compared to children without covid-19 as well as hospital admissions within the first year and medical prescriptions within the first year. This knowledge can give the investigators an indication of how affected these children are on the long term. Furthermore, data has been collected about the long-term symptoms in adults, but not children, and it now seems obvious that this data are needed to fully understand the disease and orchestra the relevant medical attention for children during the covid-19 pandemic.
This study will provide information on the effectiveness of cryoneurolysis for patients with facet joint pain syndrome, and help to establish whether cryoneurolysis should be implemented in clinical practice for this patient population.
This is a Phase II, randomized, blinded, active-controlled, global, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lomvastomig and tobemstomig, compared with nivolumab, in patients with advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC) refractory or intolerant to fluoropyrimidine- or taxane- and platinum-based regimen. Following approval of the protocol amendment version 3, recruitment into the lomvastomig arm has been stopped. The decision to stop recruitment for lomvastomig was based on strategic considerations and not based on emerging safety and/or efficacy data. The benefit/risk assessment for lomvastomig remains unchanged. The study was planned to enroll participants randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive lomvastomig, tobemstomig, or nivolumab. With version 3 of the protocol, recruitment into the lomvastomig arm has stopped, and moving forward, participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either tobemstomig or nivolumab.
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan (also known as T-DXd, DS-8201a), either alone or in combination with pertuzumab, in treating patients with Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer as a first line of treatment in the metastatic setting.
An escape room is a game-like experience, where participants solve a series of logic based puzzles. Such game-like experiences are being increasingly used in the educations of medical professionals. With this research project, the researchers aim to explore medical students' experiences and perceived learning outcome of narrow learning objectives in a medical escape room experience. The learning experience will be structured with a short lecture, focussed instructions, a medical escape room scenario and a structured debriefing. The aim is that the study will create the foundation for general principles for the conduct of medical escape room experiences.
This study is done to find out whether the medicine, semaglutide, has a positive effect on early Alzheimer's disease. Participants will either get semaglutide or placebo (a "dummy" medicine which does not contain any study medicine) - which treatment participants get is decided by an equal chance. The study will last for up to 173 weeks (about 3 years and 4 months). Participants will have 17 clinic visits and 1 phone call with the study doctor. The study includes various tests and scans. At 10 of the clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. Participants must have a study partner, who is willing to take part in the study. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breastfeeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sub-study will be performed as a part of the study. The sub-study will be performed on a selection of sites based on their experience with CSF sampling and willingness to participate in this sub-study. The endpoints related to this sub-study are exploratory only.

This main long-term extension study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of faricimab 6 milligrams (mg) administered by intravitreal injection at a personalized treatment interval (PTI) to participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) who enrolled in and completed one of the Phase III studies: GR40306 (NCT03823287) or GR40844 (NCT03823300), also referred to as the parent studies. Eligible patients who consent to participate in this main study will be enrolled upon completion of the end-of-study visit in the parent study. Additionally, there is a substudy that is being conducted. The aim of this substudy is to evaluate the impact of intravitreal faricimab on the health of the corneal endothelial cells in the study eyes of patients with nAMD to fulfill a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) post-marketing requirement. The fellow eyes of the same enrolled participants in the substudy will serve as the controls.
The primary objective is to examine the effect of multidisciplinary geriatric team home-visits as follow-up after a hip fracture in old patients. The hypothesis is that home-visits will reduce the number of falls, readmissions, prevent functional decline, optimize that medical treatment, and a higher degree of satisfaction and quality of life.
The incidence of head and neck cancer is increasing in the Western World, including Denmark. Cancer of the head and neck and its treatment often have a detrimental and lifelong impact on the quality of life of the patients. Radiotherapy is a key component for approximately 80% of all patients with head and neck cancer and despite the enormous improvement in ionizing radiotherapy, the radiation still leads to significant ionizing of healthy tissue, including the radiation-sensitive salivary glands. Salivary glands suffer severe damage from radiation, and as these cells are the principal sites of fluid secretion one of the most prevalent side effect of irradiation for head and neck cancer is hyposalivation and dry mouth syndrome, xerostomia. Xerostomia leads to debilitating oral disorders and major implication for the overall quality of life, including social life and professional life. Currently, only symptomatic treatment is available to patients suffering from xerostomia, and therefore there is an immense, unmet need for new treatment strategies for hyposalivation and xerostomia. Stem cells have been identified as a potential treatment modality for a wide variety of disorders by their ability to differentiate into many functional cell types, and stem cells have been suggested as an approach to restoring the function of salivary glands after radiotherapy damage. The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the injection of stem cells from healthy donors on radiation-induced salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia in previous head and neck cancer patients. The project can potentially help to develop a clinically relevant treatment option for the growing number of patients suffering from xerostomia after irradiation. The development of new therapies is especially meaningful since only sub-optimal, symptomatic treatments are currently available, and since the symptom of xerostomia immensely reduces quality of life.
