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 hypothesis for this study is that oral Semaglutide, a GLP-1Ra, has a positive effect on the balance between build-up and degradation as well as the strength of the bones in men and women aged 50-85 years with type 2 diabetes and an increased risk of bone fractures. Treatment involves once daily oral GLP-1Ra semaglutide or matching placebo for 52 weeks. The effect will be measured by bone markers in blood samples, bone scans, bone tissue and bone marrow tests (bone marrow aspiration and biopsy), physical activity assessed by a questionnaire, and direct bone strength measured by microindentation at the start and end of the study.
Medtronic is sponsoring Enlighten: The EV-ICD Post Approval Registry, to further confirm safety and effectiveness of EV-ICD in routine clinical practice, following commercial release of EV-ICD devices.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a new drug that might help protect and preserve kidney function in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV). AAV is a type of autoimmune disease where the body's own immune system attacks itself, and in the case of AAV the body attacks its own small blood vessels. There are many small blood vessels in the kidneys meaning the kidneys are commonly affected in AAV. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the new drug well tolerated and safe? - Can the new drug protect and preserve kidney functions when is added to standard therapy? Researchers will compare the following groups to see how the new drug is tolerated and what effect to preserve kidney tissue has: - Group A: Standard treatment + ALE.F02 low dose infusions - Group B: Standard treatment + ALE.F02 high dose infusions - Group C: Standard treatment + ALE.F02 maximum dose infusions - Group D: Standard treatment + placebo infusions (inactive substance) The Treatment period will consist of 24 weeks beginning on Day 1, during which time participants will receive 13 infusions of the study medicine, along with standard therapy for kidney inflammation due to AAV. During the treatment period, participants will have the following assessments: - A brief physical examination focusing on their skin any pre-existing medical conditions that you have. - Collection of blood and urine samples for routine safety tests and to assess renal function. - Collection of blood samples: - To measure the amount of study medicine in their blood. This is called pharmacokinetics (PK) and it is tested to see how study medicine enters, moves through, and exits the body. - To test for antidrug antibodies (ADA). To check if their body create antibodies against the study medicine, as this could reduce its effect. - To measure biomarkers. Biomarkers are specific compounds in the body (can be protein, hormones, or genetic molecules) that indicate normal or abnormal processes taking place in your body and may be a sign of an underlying condition or disease (for example glucose levels are used as biomarker in managing diabetes). They are used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or condition. - Collection of urine to measure urine markers of vasculitis/inflammation called biomarkers. - Urine pregnancy test. A urine pregnancy test is a quick medical test that can tell if a woman is pregnant or not by checking for a hormone which is produced during pregnancy, usually in the urine. - Chest High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scan to check whether they have vasculitis affecting their lungs. A CT scan uses special x-ray equipment to take detailed pictures of body tissues and organs to diagnose and monitor conditions in various parts of the body. For the CT scan, they will need to lie still on a table. At Week 24 a second lung CT scan will be performed for participants whose initial scan showed lung vasculitis to see whether your lung vasculitis is getting better or ongoing/worse.
This trial is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, randomized, factorial, single-blind trial of multiple hemodynamic and respiratory targets during general anesthesia. These targets include blood pressure, positive end expiratory pressure, tidal volume, and fraction of inspired oxygen. Patients will be randomized to different targets using a factorial design, i.e., each patient is simultaneously randomized to four interventions. There will be five enrolling sites in the Central Denmark Region. 480 high-risk patients will be enrolled.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of glofitamab in combination with polatuzumab vedotin plus rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (Pola-R-CHP) vs Pola-R-CHP in participants with previously untreated CD20-positive large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL).
Many pregnant women face the risk of experiencing depression after giving birth, especially if they've previously dealt with depression. The goal of this study, is to test if our newly developed Prenatal Affective Cognitive Training (PACT) intervention, can decrease the likelihood of post partum depression. In the study, 226 pregnant women, some of whom are considered high risk due to past mental illness or psycho-social risk factors, will participate. The high-risk women will be divided into two groups. One group will undergo the PACT training, which involves computer and virtual reality exercises spanning five weeks, designed to improve mood and emotional regulation. The other group will receive usual care. The main aim is to observe whether the women who undergo PACT intervention are less prone to depression after childbirth compared to those who do not. This study has potential to offer a simple, non-invasive method to bolster mental health in expectant mothers, which could also positively impact their infants.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ide-cel with lenalidomide (LEN) maintenance to that of LEN maintenance alone in adult participants with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma (NDMM) who have achieved a suboptimal response post autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT).
Biomarkers for prognosis of patients with polyneuropathy.
This study will investigate what concentrations of the most common thiurams and carbamates that elicit allergic contact dermatitis under patch test and what concentrations of the rubber accelerators that elicit allergic contact dermatitis by repeated exposures under simulated use conditions. Further, it will investigate whether a damaged skin barrier as caused by wet work increase the severity of the allergic contact dermatitis. The participants will be assigned to either the SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate)-group or non SLS-group. For the participants of the SLS-group, one volar forearm will be randomized to be pre-irritated with a soap i.e. detergent: sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) for 24 hours to simulate wet work. The participants of the non SLS-group will not be pre-irritated with SLS. Following this, the participants' volar forearms will be exposed to thiurams or carbamates and a control solution every night for 7 nights to simulate the repeated exposure to rubber gloves with accelerators. The skin reactions will be read cf. current international guidelines and further quantified using laser Doppler flowmetry. During the study, all participants will be patch tested on the upper back with rubber accelerators to investigate their current degree of sensitization and the dose-response relationships.
After introducing a nationwide screening program for colorectal cancer (CRC) in Denmark, more cases of early-stage CRC are being detected. Cancers in the earliest stages are often removed locally, either during the diagnostic colonoscopy or through planned minimally invasive surgery. This early detection of cancer, and thereby an improved prognosis, is a positive feature but has also introduced a new clinical dilemma. Is the patient fully cured by the local resection, or do they need further surgery? Whether further surgery is recommended at the Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) board meeting depends on the outcome of specific criteria from the histopathological assessment of the locally removed specimen. The presence of these criteria does not, however, translate directly into the presence of residual disease - merely into a theoretically increased risk. In Denmark, after surgery, the fraction of cases with residual disease has been around 15% for many years. In the remaining 85% of cases, local removal alone was curative - and the surgery appears excessive. Investigating blood samples for the presence of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a new and promising method for cancer detection. The method utilizes that cancer cells release ctDNA into the circulation. ctDNA detected in blood drawn from a patient a few days after local removal of a tumor indicates that residual disease is present and further treatment, such as surgery, is needed. The purpose of this study is to investigate, whether analyses of ctDNA can correctly identify patients with residual disease after local removal of early CRC. If this identification proves accurate, many patients can be spared further surgery.
