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 ketone body 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB) is a naturally occurring energy substrate, and is associated with increased life span and improved health. We have previously shown that intravenous 3-OHB treatment increases myocardial blood flow > 70% in healthy humans and data from our group show that 3-OHB increases cardiac output by 40 % in patients with heart failure. In this study the investigators aim to investigate: 1. If this effect is reproducible with a commercially available oral ketone supplements 2. The safety of commercially available ketone supplements in heart failure patients
The study performs head-to-head comparison of two TAVI-valves: Sapien and Myval.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of finerenone compared to placebo (a tablet without active substance) in the reduction of cardiovascular death (generally meaning death due to disease of the heart or blood vessels) and total Heart Failure (HF) events, including HF hospitalization and urgent visits for HF(generally meaning a hospital stay or urgent presentation to a healthcare unit due to worsening symptoms of heart failure) in patients suffering from HF with an ejection fraction greater than or equal to 40%. Researchers will also collect information on how much the heart disease has impact on patient's lives, change of kidney function, and how well finerenone treatment is tolerated. The study plans to enroll 6000 male and female patients of the age of 40 years and above suffering from heart failure with ejection fraction greater than or equal to 40%. Participants will take the study product as oral tablet with a dose between 0 (Placebo) 40 mg once daily. Study duration will be up to 43 months.
Swallow disorders or dysphagia related to mechanical ventilation affects between 1,300 and 2,000 patients in Danish intensive care units every year and increases aspiration, pneumonia and risk of dying. In intensive care units, dysphagia may vary around the clock as fatigue and fluctuating alertness play an important role for the patients' ability to swallow effectively without aspiration to the airway. For this reason, ICU nurses must be able to assess dysphagia in the ICU patient day and night, but guidelines are lacking. One of the simplest and most sensitive methods is the Yale Swallow Protocol, however, this protocol requires translation and validation before it can be implemented in Danish intensive care units. This project aims to translate and validate the Yale Swallow Protocol for use in Danish intensive care units. Furthermore, this project will explore nurses' perceptions and management of dysphagia in the intensive care unit as well as feasibility and acceptability of the Yale Swallow Protocol.
Patients with COVID-19 and hypoxaemic respiratory failure and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) are treated with supplementary oxygen as a standard. However, quality of quantity evidence regarding this practise is low. The aim of the HOT-COVID trial is to evaluate the benefits and harms of two targets of partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) in guiding the oxygen therapy in acutely ill adult COVID-19 patients with hypoxaemic respiratory failure at ICU admission.
Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) and Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) are becoming increasingly popular as treatments for Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy. However, despite several years of use the incidence of cystoid macular edema and damage related to increased intraocular pressure (IOP), and the forward scattering of light through the eye following DSAEK or DMEK have to our knowledge not been prospectively described. Therefore, this project will be a randomized controlled trial investigating these matters.
Primary Objective: To determine the efficacy of SAR442168 compared to placebo in delaying disability progression in NRSPMS Secondary Objective: To evaluate efficacy of SAR442168 compared to placebo on clinical endpoints, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesions, cognitive performance, physical function, and quality of life To evaluate safety and tolerability of SAR442168 To evaluate population pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR442168 and relevant metabolites in NRSPMS and its relationship to efficacy and safety To evaluate pharmacodynamics (PD) of SAR442168
Primary Objective: To assess efficacy of daily SAR442168 compared to a daily dose of 14 mg teriflunomide (Aubagio) measured by annualized adjudicated relapse rate (ARR) in participants with relapsing forms of MS Secondary Objective: To assess efficacy of SAR442168 compared to teriflunomide (Aubagio) on disability progression, MRI lesions, cognitive performance and quality of life To evaluate the safety and tolerability of daily SAR442168 To evaluate population pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR442168 and relevant metabolites and its relationship to efficacy and safety To evaluate pharmacodynamics (PD) of SAR442168
The SOFT study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of MR-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for infra-diaphragmatic soft tissue metastases.
Participants in this study will have diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back or not gotten better with treatment. The trial will study whether brentuximab vedotin plus two drugs works better to treat this type of cancer than the two drugs alone. Participants will be randomly assigned to get either brentuximab vedotin or placebo. The placebo will look like brentuximab vedotin, but has no medicine in it. Since the study is "blinded," participants and their doctors will not know whether a participant gets brentuximab vedotin or placebo. All participants in the study will get rituximab and lenalidomide. These are drugs that can be used to treat DLBCL.
