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 is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose study in healthy volunteer subjects. Each dose level will be investigated with eight 20-50-year-old male subjects (6 on active drug and 2 on placebo). Additionally, eight healthy elderly subjects (65-80 years of age, males and females), 6 on active drug and 2 on placebo, will be included in the study at one dose level, once the safety and tolerability of AVLX-144 has been documented in younger subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of eptinezumab in participants with episodic Cluster Headache (eCH)
In this FinUC study we are trying to find out the efficacy and safety of the Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in newly diagnosed active ulcerative colitis patients. The study group with newly diagnosed active ulcerative colitis receive an FMT via colonoscopy from a tested general donor, frozen and thawed from a fecal bank at week 0 and at week 4 as an enema at the study nurse´s visit. The control group will be given colored water. The main aim of the FinUC study is to determine how the FMT change of the gut microbiota composition in newly diagnosed active ulcerative colitis patients. The other aim is to determine efficacy and mechanisms of fecal microbiota transplantation.
The orifices of all inguinal and ventral (including Spigelian) hernias were carefully recorded at the beginning of laparoscopy (n=201) of other reason (cholecystectomy, fundoplication) in 2003-5. The patients with occult hernias (n=43) were followed-up 15 years to find out what percentage of hernias would become symptomatic.
This project is an unfunded collaboration of approximately 30 emergency departments across Europe led by the EUSEM research network. It involves collection of data in relation to determining the epidemiology and outcome of adult patients who present to emergency departments with a suspected Covid infection.
This is a Phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study designed to investigate whether tafasitamab and lenalidomide as an add-on to rituximab provides improved clinical benefit compared with lenalidomide as an add-on to rituximab in patients with R/R FL Grade 1 to 3a or R/R MZL.
Background: PE (pre-eclampsia) is a common pregnancy-specific vascular hypertensive disease affecting 3-5% of pregnancies. PE independently increases the risk for premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) in mothers and their offspring long-term. PE provides a unique window for early risk profiling and CVD prevention. However, the efficacy of a family oriented lifestyle intervention to lower CVD risk in families with history of PE has not previously been evaluated. Aim: This study will explore the impact of PE on CVD progression 8-12 years from delivery in mothers and their children, and assess whether a lifestyle intervention is useful for lowering mother and child blood pressure and improving the CVD risk profile overall in families with a history of PE. Hypothesis: PE is related with CVD progression mediated by elevated blood pressure. Blood pressure and the CVD risk profile overall is modifiable in mothers and children by a 12-month behavioral lifestyle intervention in families with a history of PE. Study design: Randomized controlled behavioral lifestyle intervention trial where families (mother, child and father from the FINNPEC study) are offered the opportunity to participate in a lifestyle intervention program 8-12 years after a PE pregnancy. 300 PE families will be randomized 1:1 to a 12-month lifestyle intervention program or to a control group. A parallel group of 100 non-PE control families will be assessed at baseline and follow-up. Main outcome: 24 hour mean blood pressure change between baseline and follow-up in mother and child. Significance: This study will provide information on CVD progression in mothers and children 8-12 years from a PE pregnancy. Furthermore, the study assess the effect of a 12-month lifestyle intervention on blood pressure and CVD risk profile overall following a PE pregnancy. Potentially, the study provides the opportunity to identify PE families at highest risk of CVD progression and families amenable to blood pressure and CVD risk profile improvement.
Differential diagnosis: ultrasound, blood gas analyse combined with examination of the patient and environment is used during Out Of Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) to screen possible underlying cause of cardiac arrest. Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) in Helsinki has unraveled a protocol for performing differential diagnosis during OHCA. Our study aim is to test the feasibility of this protocol. Our study is a prospective medical record based study. The anesthesiologist operating in the HEMS unit fills a form after encounter of OHCA. Questioners focus on how long did execution of the protocol take, and the cause if the protocol was not completed.
An international consortium of leading medical experts in the field of chronic respiratory disease, the research team of Galenus Health and the non-profit organization EUFOREA (European Forum for Research and Education in Allergy and Airway diseases) has been conceived to conduct real-life outcome research. The Galenus Health digital platform consisting of a mobile application for patients and an online dashboard for physicians will be implemented in each of the participating centres. The data will be centralized in a pseudonymized database and will be the basis of the Chronic RhinoSinusitis Outcome Registry.
The study is a randomised controlled trial comparing the effectivity and impact of epidural analgesia and wound catheter analgesia in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. The aim of the study is to examine whether there are a difference in perioperative fluid therapy and complication rates between the patients in epidural and wound catheter groups.
