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 intention of the study is to demonstrate superiority of Saruparib (AZD5305) + physician's choice NHA relative to placebo + physician's choice NHA by assessment of radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) in participants with mCSPC.
The overall aim is to identify effective therapeutic strategies to ovarian cancer (OC) using serial tumor, ascites and blood samples, and carry out state-of-the-art sequencing approaches, functional assays and associated bioinformatics to understand mechanisms behind chemoresistance in OC and identify new treatment options for OC patients. In this observational trial, we will systematically collect, analyze and interpret functional, molecular and clinical data from real-world ovarian cancer patients.
This clinical investigation assesses the performance of PaMo patient monitor system (PaMo) and its wearable sensing devices that combines continuous IP, ECG and PPG in detecting developing respiratory depression episodes. PaMo patient monitor system consists of a wearable measurement unit worn on a patient, bedside mobile unit that receives the data from the wearable unit through Bluetooth Low Energy connection, visualises it, and can be relayed further to the central unit through WiFi network.
This is a prospective, single center translational multiple cohort study to investigate the association of gut microbiota and prostate cancer.
The purpose of the study is to learn about the effects of a monovalent (single component) pneumococcal conjugate candidate (mPnC candidate) when given to toddlers between 11 and 15 months of age. All participants in this study will receive 2 doses of either mPnC candidate or mPnC control at the clinic approximately 8 weeks apart. All participants will also receive their third (toddler) dose of PCV10 at Visit 1.
Alzheimer´s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. The most important risk factor for AD is old age; modifiable risk factors for AD include metabolic risk factors, i.e. diabetes, and obesity. Insulin resistance seems to be associated with AD pathology and cognitive decline. Previous studies suggest that AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD, a stage between normal cognition and AD dementia, would be associated with central nervous system (CNS) insulin resistance. Insulin resistance can be measured using a sophisticated hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique. Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake of muscles and adipose tissue is known to be reduced in an insulin resistant subject compared to healthy insulin sensitive subjects. Central nervous system insulin resistance, however, is more difficult to assess, while a clear-cut definition is thus far lacking. Previous studies have demonstrated that whole-body insulin resistance in obese subjects is accompanied with higher brain glucose-uptake (BGU) during the insulin clamp, compared to lean controls, and that BGU increases from the fasting to the insulin clamp state. On the contrary, there is no difference in BGU under fasting conditions between obese subjects and healthy lean controls. No previous studies have evaluated brain glucose uptake in clamp conditions in subjects with MCI or early AD. The aim of this study is to evaluate if brain glucose uptake is increased in MCI/ early AD subjects in a similar manner as in morbidly obese subjects in an insulin-stimulated state (during a hyperinsulinemic clamp) when compared to the fasting state, and when compared to controls. The investigators hypothesize that MCI subjects would have CNS insulin resistance that could, in time, contribute to the pathological process of AD. The investigators will recruit altogether 20 MCI subjects from the local memory clinic, and healthy controls through advertisements. All participants will undergo two [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scans (one in the fasting state and one during the hyperinsulinemic clamp), a magnetic resonance image scan for structural changes, blood sampling, and comprehensive cognitive testing. The participants will also undergo a [11C]PIB-PET scan to measure brain amyloid accumulation. Understanding the metabolic changes in the brain preceding AD could help in developing disease-modifying treatments in the future.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate Fetal Medicine Foundation's pre-eclampsia risk calculator using maternal characteristics, first trimester serum placental growth factor (PlGF) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) in a Finnish general population. Condition or disease: pre-eclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, polycystic ovary syndrome
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mavacamten impact on myocardial structure with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in adult participants with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) [New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class II or III].
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the coadministration of oral typhoid fever (Vivotif®) and cholera (Dukoral®) vaccines in healthy volunteers aged 18-65 years. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does coadministration impact the immune responses to Vivotif® and Dukoral® vaccines Participants will: - receive either oral typhoid fever (Vivotif®) or oral cholera (Dukoral®) vaccines or both simultaneously - give blood samples for immunogenicity analyses - participate in adverse event follow up Researchers will compare those receiving only one of the vaccines to those receiving both simultaneously to see if coadministration has an impact on antigen-specific responses measured with: - ELISPOT (plasmablast responses specific to Salmonella typhi, Vibrio Cholerae and Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli) - ELISA (antibodies in lymphocyte supernatants (ALS) and serum antibodies specific to vaccine antigens)
The research will evaluate possible clinical and individual brain topographic features affecting the outcome in subthalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) with patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The patient cohort consists 35 PD patients treated with subthalamic DBS in 2020-2022. The clinical features (such as age, disease duration, response to levodopa in the levodopa challenge test) will be evaluated retrospectively from the medical records and brain topographic features from the preoperative 3 Tesla brain imaging.
