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.
This study is an interventional, randomized, multinational, multicenter, double-blind, phase 2 study with a follow-up period of circa 12 months. The intension of this clinical trial is to investigate the long-term sequelae (named Long COVID syndrome; post COVID or PASC) of an infection with Corona Virus Type 2 that has resulted in a condition known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus Type 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BC 007 as a treatment for long-lasting COVID-symptoms in patients who were neither intubated nor supported with extracorporeal blood oxygenation (ECMO) during their acute COVID-19 infection. The study drug acts by neutralizing functional autoantibodies directed against G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Neutralization of the autoantibodies is expected to induce a beneficial effect on symptoms typically seen in patients with long COVID syndrome. Functional autoantibodies are proteins belonging to the class of G-type immunoglobulins that can be synthesized by activation of the immune system and can induce various pathogenic activities by binding to one of the extracellular loops of G-proteins (GPCR-AAB). The study consists of a screening phase of up to 35 days, treatment (two administrations by intravenous infusion at two-week intervals either with the study drug (BC 007) or with placebo (NaCl 0.9%), with an initial follow-up period of 15 days after each administration and an extended follow-up period of 330 days. Patients are required to visit the study center for follow-up visits at specified intervals. For the entire study duration of 395 days from screening to the end of the study, 11 site visits are planned.
To investigate if progression from prodromal into symptomatic NPH can be predicted from advanced neuroimaging, biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma and investigate the unknown mechanisms causing deterioration by investigating longitudinal changes in the above-mentioned variables. Three different cohorts with both asymptomatic and symptomatic patients as well as healthy controls will be investigated over time, both without intervention and before and after shunt surgery.
Non-randomized controlled clinical trial was used. Data were collected using the Working Time Tracking Form in three data collection points (baseline, at 1 month and at 2 month). The participants were home care professionals who carried out home care clients' medication management. Home care clients were allocated into intervention and control groups (n=64 and 46, respectively) based on whether or not they used the robot. The statistical analysis methods were used.
The trial is a single-center, non-randomized feasibility study aiming to evaluate the feasibility of ex-vivo tissue analysis using differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) of tissue smoke generated by the use of an electrosurgical instrument. Patients recruited in the trial receive standard-of-care oral squamous cell carcinoma tumor excision surgery.
The aims of this study are to find out how pain may alter the experience of emotions in the body in pediatric pain patients and how how their parent feel the emotions in their bodies. We are also interested how this possible effect is mediated by the duration and location of pain, mood changes or with the experience of bullying.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of inavolisib in combination with Phesgo (pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and rHuPH20 injection for subcutaneous use) compared with placebo in combination with Phesgo, as maintenance therapy, after induction therapy in participants with previously untreated HER2-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC).
Contact with nature promotes human wellbeing through diverse pathways, providing a potential way to support health especially in primary care, where patients commonly suffer from multimorbidity and poor general health. Social prescribing as a non-pharmaceutical treatment is a promising method to improve health as well as inclusion. This study explores and compares the effects of a nature based and an exercise based social prescribing scheme on mental wellbeing, physical activity and sleep, in a primary care population.
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin disease that causes painful lesions in the axilla (underarm), inguinal (groin) and anogenital (anal/genital) regions. This study will assess how safe and effective upadacitinib is in treating adult and adolescent participants with moderate to severe HS who have failed to respond to or are intolerant of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is an approved drug for ulcerative colitis, atopic dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and axial spondylarthritis and is being developed for the treatment of HS. This study is "double-blinded", meaning that neither the trial participants nor the study doctors will know who will be given upadacitinib and who will be given placebo. This study is comprised of 3 periods. In Period 1, participants are randomized into 2 groups called treatment arms where each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 2 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. In Period 2, participants are placed into 6 different groups depending on their placement and results in Period 1. Period 3 is the long-term extension period where participants will continue treatment from Period 2. Approximately 1328 adult and adolescent participants diagnosed with HS will be enrolled in approximately 275 sites worldwide. Participants will receive oral tablets of upadacitinib or placebo once daily for 36 weeks in Period 1 and Period 2. Eligible participants from Period 1 and Period 2 will enter Period 3 and receive oral tablets of upadacitinib or placebo once daily for 68 weeks. Participants will be followed up for approximately 30 days. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular outpatient visits during the study. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
It is observed that replacing meat with protein-rich plant-based food products are associated with lower mortality and obesity prevention. Sources of plant proteins typically undergo several processing and refinement procedures to improve the taste and digestibility of plant-based food products. These procedures alter the chemical composition, which can impact the nutritional quality of the processed food. It is not known what is the impact of processed products on human metabolism and intestinal microbiota. Therefore, the impact of a set of plant-based protein-rich food products with varying degree of processing on the composition and function of human gut microbiome and metabolism will be assessed in a clinical intervention
The primary objective of this study is to describe the long-term safety and tolerability of rocatinlimab in participants with moderate-to-severe AD.
