This is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group and active controlled study. Patients will be randomized (1 to 1 ratio) to a 4-week double-blind treatment period of either FDC (fixed-dose combination) of tiotropium + olodaterol (5/5 µg) plus placebo or the free combination of tiotropium 5 µg and olodaterol 5 µg; all administered via the Respimat® inhaler. The purpose is to show non-inferiority between the FDC and the free combination of tiotropium and olodaterol in patients with COPD.
Teduglutide is approved for treatment of adults with short bowel syndrome (SBS). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of teduglutide in children up to the age of 17 with SBS who are dependent on parenteral support. Subjects may choose whether to receive the study drug or to participate in a standard-of-care arm. All participants who complete the study may be eligible to receive the study drug in a long-term extension study.
In this two-parted study the need and sufficiency of analgesics and experienced pain is compared between teen-aged and adult women undergoing medical termination of pregnancy (MToP)in early pregnancy (under 9weeks of gestation). During MToP at pregnancy weeks 9-20 on-demand administration of opiates and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) are compared in randomized clinical trial.
This study consists of two parts (Part 1 and Part 2). The purpose of Part 1 is to evaluate the way the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes and removes the drug LCZ696. This will help determine the proper dose of LCZ696 for Part 2 of the study. The purpose for Part 2 is to compare the effectiveness and safety of LCZ696 with enalapril in a double-blind manner, in pediatric heart failure patients over 52 weeks of treatment.
The primary objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) and 15 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who were on a stable dose of csDMARDs and had an inadequate response to csDMARDs.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and clinical feasibility of epicardially delivered autologous atrial appendage micrografts in the treatment of heart failure. The micrografts consisting atrial-derived cells and their extracellular matrix, are placed on an infarction scar during CABG surgery.
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to investigate efficacy and safety of faster-acting insulin aspart compared to NovoRapid® both in combination with insulin degludec in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
This study evaluates the 6 month exercise intervention (Taiji and gym course) combined with free use of communal recreation facilities in fall prevention. Morbidity, use of social services and health outcomes of aging women in province of Kuopio, Finland are also monitored. The study combines a six months supervised exercise, followed by six months free, but unsupervised, use of recreational facilities and observational period of second year into total of 2 year follow up duration.
Bladder cancer (BC) as the most common malignancy arising from the urinary tract continues to be a major health problem. This prospective non-randomized study will enroll 150 patients undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at different stages of their diagnostic and therapeutical process. The enrolled patients with suspected BC (BC) based on cystoscopy will have their initial MRI examination before transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) and biomarker collection. After pathology review of the histological specimens, patients will be treated according to standard clinical practice. The second MRI examination will be performed before therapeutic intervention, if TUR-BT alone is not sufficient enough. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy will be applied in high risk patients having muscle invasison, while intermediate risk patient - T1 high grade or carcinoma in situ patients - will be treated using Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) instilliations. After the completion of the neoadjuvant chemotherapy or BCG treatment, the patients will undergo the third MRI examination. Low risk patients will be followed by annual with MRI examination.
The aim of the study is to measure the effect of Finnish physician-staffed EMS unit treatment methods on traumatic brain injury (TBI) patient prognosis. In the second part of the study the gathered data will be combined with the data from an earlier study (NCT01454648) for regression analysis. The aim of the second study is to identify prehospital factors influencing the prognosis of prehospital TBI patients.
