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.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC is a group of lung cancers that have spread to nearby tissues or to other parts of the body or that are unlikely to be cured or controlled with currently available treatments. HER2 is a protein that helps cells to grow and divide. A damage (also called mutation) to the building plans (genes) for this protein in cancer cells leads to a production of abnormal HER2 and therefore abnormal cell growth and division. The study treatment, BAY 2927088, is expected to block the mutated HER2 protein which may stop the spread of NSCLC. The main purpose of this study is to learn how well BAY 2927088 works and how safe it is compared with standard treatment, in participants who have advanced NSCLC with specific genetic changes called HER2 mutations. The study participants will receive one of the study treatments: - BAY 2927088 twice every day as a tablet by mouth, or - Standard treatment in cycles of 21 days via infusion ("drip") into the vein. The treatment will continue for as long as participants benefit from it without any severe side effects or until they or their doctor decide to stop the treatment. During the study, the doctors and their study team will: - take imaging scans, including CT, PET, MRI, and X-rays, of different parts of the body to study the spread of cancer - check the overall health of the participants by performing tests such as blood and urine tests, and checking - heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - perform pregnancy tests for women - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatment.
The goal of this randomized, controlled trial is to examine the effectiveness of dietary counseling on the risk of depressiveness, work ability, and quality of life in mental health professionals. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether dietary counseling can lower the risk of depression and depression-related sick leave days and improve work ability among mental health professionals - Whether dietary counseling can improve life quality, diet quality, and eating behavior among mental health professionals. Subjects of the intervention group will participate in five dietary counseling sessions during six months. Participants in the control group do not receive any intervention. Researchers will compare the intervention and control groups to see if dietary counseling is effective in reducing the risk of depressiveness and depression-related sick leave days and improving work ability, quality of life, and nutritional habits.
The goal of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of GSK5733584. The study will also see how the levels of GSK5733584 change over time at different dose amount.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study whether surgery results in better functional outcomes than non-surgical treatment among patients aged 50-65 with a displaced proximal humerus fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Does osteosynthesis result in better patient-reported functional outcomes compared to non-surgical treatment at 12 months follow-up? Aim is also to characterize the patient group aged 50-65 regarding fracture morphology, osteoporosis, and clinical frailty scale. The study compare operation with either plate or nail fixation to non-surgical treatment. Participants will: - Receive either surgical treatment or non-surgical treatment. - At 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years, the patient will answer two short questionnaires (Oxford Shoulder Score and Eq-5D-3L). The primary outcome will be Oxford Shoulder Score at 12 months. The secondary outcome will be OSS at 6 and 24 months and EQ-5D-3L score measured at the same time-points. Adverse events and conversion to surgery will be registered. OSS and EQ-5D-3L will be completed just before the 6 months visit.
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a major global public health concern, is commonly associated with obesity, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. MASLD is currently the most common cause of chronic liver disease affecting about 80% of people with obesity, ranging from simple fat deposits in the liver to Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH), cellular injury, advanced fibrosis, cirrhosis, or hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients with MASH are also at risk for cardiovascular disease and mortality. There is no universally approved medication for MASH. Weight loss remains the cornerstone of MASH treatment. Patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria and who give informed consent will be enrolled in the trial and undergo the baseline liver biopsy (if none available). Approximately 120 patients with MASH and liver fibrosis (F1-F4 in baseline liver biopsy) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to metabolic surgery or medical treatment (incretin-based therapies ± other medical therapies for MASH) and followed for 2 years at which time a repeat liver biopsy will be performed for the assessment of the primary end point.
The goal of this observational study is to compare fetal liver ultrasound radiomics between pregnancies complicated by type 1 diabetes and healthy controls. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Are fetal liver ultrasound radiomic features reproducible? - Does fetal liver ultrasound radiomics differ between pregnancies complicated by type 1 diabetes and healthy controls? Participants will undergo ultrasound examination to collect ultrasound data for the analyses.

In this clinical trial, our aim is to assess the effect of auto-FMT (Fecal microbiome transplantation) on the intestinal microbiota, after a course of antibiotics. 30 healthy adults are recruited. All are given a five day course of amoxicillin-clavulanate. The subjects are double blinded and randomized to two groups. Group A is given autologous FMT (auto-FMT) on day 7 (two days after the end of the course of antibiotics) and Group B is given auto-FMT on day 28 (23 days after the end of the course of antibiotics).
The goal of this clinical trial is to study if a oral maternal fecal transplant given to a premature infant born by cesarean section (CS) is safe. The investigators will also compare the gut microbiome of the infants to those born by CS and not received the transplant and to premature infants born vaginally.
APPAC IV, a randomized double-blind multicenter clinical trial comparing once daily oral moxifloxacin with placebo in an outpatient setting aims to evaluate whether antibiotics and hospitalization or both can be omitted in the treatment of uncomplicated appendicitis further significantly increasing cost savings and patient satisfaction. This is a direct research continuum to the previous trial triad: APPAC, APPAC II and APPAC III, which have already established that the majority of patients with uncomplicated acute appendicitis can be safely treated without surgery. The APPAC IV trial is based on a novel concept and approach to further optimize the nonoperative treatment of uncomplicated acute appendicitis with a high potential in resulting in major health care cost savings and potentially also in significant reduction of antibiotic use in an extremely common surgical emergency.
