There are about 1129 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Estonia. 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.
This exploratory study aims to evaluate the diagnostic, prognostic and response predictive value of a multi biomarker strategy in patients with Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (GEP NETs) originating from the midgut or pancreas. Using a recently developed methodology enabling the evaluation of 92 concomitant cancer biomarkers will provide an interesting approach to solve this question (Lundberg et al 2011).
The purpose of this study was to assess efficacy, including inhibition of radiographic progression, and safety with upadacitinib versus placebo and versus an active comparator, adalimumab, in adults with with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable background of methotrexate (MTX and who have an inadequate response to MTX.
The main aim of the study is to check for long-term side effects of Vedolizumab Subcutaneous (also known as Vedolizumab SC) in people with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Vedolizumab SC will be given as an injection just under the skin. This type of injection is called a subcutaneous injection or SC for short. Another aim of the study is to collect information on whether the participant's condition remains under control or improves during and after treatment with Vedolizumab SC. Participants who previously took part in studies MLN0002SC-3027 or MLN0002SC-3031 will be invited to visit the study clinic. At this visit, the study doctor will check if each participant can take part in this study. For those who can take part, participants will receive a subcutaneous injection of vedolizumab SC either once a week or once every 2 weeks. How often each participant receives vedolizumab SC will depend on their results from the previous study and on how active their condition is. Participants might be able to self-inject vedolizumab SC after being trained by the study doctors. During this study, the dose of vedolizumab SC might be increased for participants whose condition worsens. Participants will continue treatment with vedolizumab SC until it is approved in their particular country, the participant decides to stop treatment, or the sponsor stops the study. If the sponsor stops the study before vedolizumab SC is approved in all countries, the sponsor will make sure all affected participants will have access to vedolizumab SC outside of the study. After their final dose of vedolizumab SC, participants will visit the clinic 18 weeks later for a final check-up. Then, the clinic will telephone the participants 6 months after their final dose of vedolizumab SC to check if they have any health problems.
The main objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo as measured by the change from baseline in the average daily Low Back Pain Intensity (LBPI) Numerical Rating Scale (NRS). Secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo as measured by: - Change from baseline in the Roland Morris disability questionnaire (RMDQ) total score - Change from baseline in the Patient Global Assessment (PGA) of Low Back Pain (LBP) score - Change from baseline in the average daily LBPI NRS score
Importance of gastrointestinal (GI) function in critically ill patients has been recognized, but until now there is no validated clinical tool to monitor GI dysfunction as part of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). The general aim of current project is to develop a five grade score (0-4 points) for assessment of GI function similar to SOFA sub-scores used for assessment of other organ systems. 500 consecutive adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit will be monitored for gastrointestinal symptoms, intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) grades [1]. In 200 patients from these, plasma and urinary levels of possible biochemical markers of intestinal injury will be assessed. Objectives: - To determine the prognostic value of gastrointestinal symptoms alone and in combination with intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), and acute gastro-intestinal injury (AGI) grades in predicting the ICU-, 28 days and 90 days mortality of adult intensive care patients (Part A of the study) - To describe the blood and urine levels of biochemical markers of intestinal injury in general cohort of intensive care patients (Part B of the study). - To compare the prognostic values of the intestinal-specific plasma parameters (IFABP, citrulline, ILBP, and D-lactate) with the gastrointestinal symptoms, AGI grades, and the SOFA score in predicting of ICU-, 28 days and 90 days mortality of adult intensive care patients (Part B of the study) Study design: prospective, observational, multicenter study Patient population: All consecutive adult critically ill patients (25 to 50 patients for each study site, 500 patients in total) in need for intensive care admission during maximum 4 weeks of study period. Duration of the study: for the individual patient 7 days and follow-up of 90 days Primary study outcome: 28 and 90 days all-cause mortality Secondary outcomes: ICU and hospital mortality, ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, multiple organ failure as a cause of mortality, plasma and urinary levels of intestinal fatty-acid binding protein (I-FABP), citrulline, ileal lipid binding protein (ILBP), and D-lactate in general cohort of intensive care patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of vedolizumab subcutaneous (vedolizumab SC) maintenance treatment on clinical remission at Week 52 in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who achieved clinical response following administration of vedolizumab intravenous (vedolizumab IV) induction therapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of vedolizumab subcutaneous (vedolizumab SC) as maintenance treatment in participants with moderately to severely active CD who achieved clinical response following administration of vedolizumab intravenous (vedolizumab IV) induction therapy.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind study of the efficacy and safety of iclaprim compared to vancomycin for the treatment of skin and skin structure infections.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of QVA149 (110/50 μg o.d.) vs tiotropium (18 µg o.d.) + salmeterol/fluticasone propionate FDC (50/500 µg b.i.d.) in patients with moderate to severe COPD
The purpose of study is to test the effects of an experimental medication GED-0301 (mongersen) in patients who have active Crohn's disease. The study will test GED-0301 compared to placebo for 52 weeks. The study treatment is blinded which means that patients and the study doctor will not know which treatment has been assigned. Patients in this study will be allowed treatment with stable doses of oral aminosalicylates, oral corticosteroids, immunosupressants and antibiotics for the treatment of Crohn's disease. After 12 weeks in the study until the end of the study, patients who do not have an improvement in their Crohns disease symptoms will have the option to enter a long term active treatment study. Participants who discontinued the study anytime or completed the study at Week 52 were then observed for an additional 4 weeks.
