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 primary objectives of this study are to assess bronchodilator efficacy as determined by forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), the effect on dyspnoea as determined by the Baseline Dyspnoea Index/Transition Dyspnoea Index (BDI/TDI), the effect on health status as determined by the St George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) and the effect on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations.
This pilot trial in Finland is designed to evaluate in a randomized fashion change of agitation in acute schizophrenic patients (Schizophrenia or Schizoaffective psychosis or Schizophreniformic psychosis)Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM - IV) with the first visits on days 1, 2, 4 or 5 and 7 ± 1.
Enthuse M0 is a large phase III clinical trial studying the efficacy of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer (HRPC). This clinical trial will test if the Endothelin A Receptor Antagonist ZD4054 (Zibotentan) can improve progression-free survival and overall survival against a background of existing prostate cancer treatments. ZD4054 (Zibotentan) is a new type of agent, which is thought to slow tumour growth and spread by blocking Endothelin receptor activity. This trial will look at the effects of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer (HRPC) patients who have had rising PSA after surgical or medical castration but have no evidence of metastases. All patients participating in this clinical trial will receive existing prostate cancer treatments in addition to trial therapy. Half the patients will receive ZD4054 (Zibotentan) , and half the patients will receive placebo in addition to standard prostate cancer therapy. By participating in this trial there is a 50% chance that patients will receive an agent that may slow the progression of the tumour. No patients will be deprived of standard prostate cancer therapy.
This is a trial to investigate the effectiveness and safety of [S,S]-Reboxetine in relieving chronic peripheral pain suffered by patients with diabetes. Some evidence for the effectiveness of [S,S]- Reboxetine in relieving chronic pain has been seen in 3 completed trials.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the effect of a cognitive group intervention on prevention of major depression in 14-15-year-old adolescents. Moreover, the effect on other selected mental health parameters are investigated.
Determine whether the addition of CP- 751,871 in combination with paclitaxel plus carboplatin prolongs survival in patients with locally advanced (Stage IIIB with pleural effusion) or metastatic (Stage IV or recurrent) NSCLC of non adenocarcinoma histology.
The objective is to evaluate whether once weekly subcutaneous (SC) injection of idrabiotaparinux is at least as efficient to prevent clots in brain and in the other organs than oral international normalized ratio (INR) adjusted-dose warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
Several combinations of H5N1 antigen concentrations and aluminium-hydroxide adjuvant concentrations will be tested for their safety and capacity to induce a specific immune response.
This is an open, randomised, active-controlled, 2-period crossover study comparing the effect of single doses of Stalevo 200 and Sinemet on striatal (putamenal and caudate) 11C-raclopride BP in PD patients with wearing-off symptoms. The study consists of 4 visits: a screening visit (visit 1), 2 treatment periods (period 1=visit 2, period 2=visit 3) separated by a minimum wash-out period of at least 3 days, and an end-of-study visit (visit 4). Subjects will be randomly allocated to start the period 1 with a single dose of Stalevo 200 or Sinemet. After the wash-out the study drug on period 2 will be administered according to a crossover design.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether, in patients with type 2 diabetes and pre-existing disease of the heart and the circulatory system and/or the kidney, aliskiren at a target dose of 300 mg once daily (compared to placebo), on top of conventional treatment, reduces death and disease caused by the heart, the circulatory system and the kidney. AMENDMENT 4 RATIONALE (MARCH 2012) : Protocol amendment 4 served to address the data monitoring committee recommendation dated 14 Dec 2011 to discontinue study treatment in all participating patients. It also addressed the subsequent Health Authorities request to implement a 12 month safety follow-up period (actual duration was 9 months in average) post study drug discontinuation.
