There are about 3961 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Finland. 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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of diluted and non-diluted DuraSeal product as a spacer between prostate and rectum in prostate cancer low-dose brachytherapy.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the Clostridium difficile vaccine to prevent primary symptomatic C. difficile infection (CDI) in participants at risk for CDI where there is a substantial unmet medical need. Primary objective: - To assess the efficacy of the C. difficile vaccine in preventing the onset of symptomatic primary CDI confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in adult participants aged >= 50 years who are at risk for CDI and have received at least 1 injection. Secondary Objectives: Efficacy: - To assess prevention of symptomatic PCR-confirmed primary CDI cases after 3 injections administered at 0, 7, and 30 days. - To assess prevention of symptomatic PCR-confirmed primary CDI cases after completion of at least 2 injections. Immunogenicity: - To describe the immunogenicity to toxin A and toxin B at specific time points in a subset of participant and in participants with CDI at Day 0 and Day 60. Safety: - To describe the safety profile of all participants who received at least 1 injection.
The study is designed to investigate the efficacy of renal nerve denervation in treating drug-resistant hypertension in patients with end stage renal disease.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the MGuard™ Prime stent in the treatment of blocked arteries in coronary arteries in patients undergoing a stenting procedure due to having a heart attack. The MGuard Prime stent wil be compared to other FDA approved bare-metal (BMS) or drug-eluting (DES) coronary stents. The hypotheses are that (1) the MGuard Prime stent will achieve a higher rate of complete ST-segment resolution as seen on the post-procedure ECG as compared to the comparator stent, and will have a similar effect on the rate of all-cause death or recurrent target vessel myocardial infarction at 365 days post-procedure.
THis study is intended to provide contemporary data on the burden of disease in patients 1 to 3 years post-MI, including a description of patient characteristics, current treatment patterns, rate of major CV events, and healthcare resource utilization in a 'real world' patient population at high atherothrombotic risk.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the effect of switching CML patients, who have been treated with imatinib ≥ 2 years and who have stable detectable molecular residual disease between 0.01-1.0% (IS), to the combination of Nilotinib and PegIFN, in terms of the proportion of patients who achieve confirmed MR4.0.
The MILO Study (MEK Inhibitor in Low-grade Serous Ovarian Cancer) is a Phase 3 study during which patients with recurrent or persistent low-grade serous (LGS) carcinomas of the ovary, fallopian tube or primary peritoneum will receive either investigational study drug MEK162 or a chemotherapy chosen by the physician (liposomal doxorubicin, paclitaxel or topotecan). Patients will be followed to compare the effectiveness of the study drug to that of the selected chemotherapies. Patients may be eligible to crossover from physician's choice chemotherapy to MEK162 if they meet certain inclusion criteria including centrally confirmed disease progression. Approximately 360 patients from North America, Europe and Australia will be enrolled in this study.
No investigational drug will be administered in this study for the treatment of Fabry disease. This will be a multicenter, multinational, non-treatment, cross-sectional study of young male patients with Fabry disease who have not yet initiated interventional treatment for this disease. The study will consist of a screening visit(s), a clinical investigation visit(s), and a follow-up phone contact. The objectives of the study are: - To document renal function and other Fabry disease manifestations across age in treatment-naïve, young male patients with Fabry disease. - To provide a reference group for comparison with interventional clinical trials of Fabry disease. The duration of each patient's participation in the study, inclusive of the screening visit and follow-up phone contact, will be approximately 12 weeks.
A substantial proportion of patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting have a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation has adverse short-and long term postoperative effects. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) seems to be effective treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. PVI can be done concomitantly with coronary artery bypass grafting, aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis and combination of them. Procedure is well defined and safe. There is a lack of convincing evidence of the effect on postoperative atrial fibrillation burden, quality of life and symptoms especially in correlation with atrial fibrillation paroxysms.
The aim of this investigation is to determine whether the use of painPREMIER will significantly improve function in patients with low back pain in an occupational health clinical setting. painPREMIER is a tool that assists clinicians in the accurate diagnosis of back pain and associated problems in order to treat them most effectively.
