There are about 218 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Iceland. 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.
Medtronic is sponsoring the Micra Registry to further confirm safety and effectiveness of the Micra Transcatheter Pacing System (Micra system) when used as intended, in "real-world" clinical practice, following commercial release. The Micra Registry is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Registry.
The purpose of the study is to test if oxygen saturation in retinal vessels is correlated with clinical parameters, such as visual acuity, central retinal thickness and presence of neovascularization. Retinal oximetry is performed with fundus camera based oximeters. The study will not entail change in treatment of the disease.
Primary Objective: To compare the radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) (using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] 1.1 for tumor lesions and Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 (PCWG2) criteria for bone scan lesions or death due to any cause) with chemotherapy (cabazitaxel plus prednisone, Arm A) versus Androgen Receptor (AR)-targeted therapy (enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate plus prednisone, Arm B) in mCRPC participants who have been treated with docetaxel and who had disease progression while receiving AR-targeted therapy within 12 months of AR treatment initiation (less than or equal to [<=]12 months, either before or after docetaxel). Secondary Objective: - To compare efficacy for: - Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response rate and time to PSA progression (TTPP). - Progression-free survival (PFS). - Overall survival (OS). - Tumor response rate and duration of tumor response. - Pain response and time to pain progression. - Symptomatic skeletal event (SSE) rate and time to occurrence of any SSE. - Health status and Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL). - To evaluate the correlation of a signature of resistance to AR-targeted agents with clinical outcome via the analysis of circulating tumor cell (CTC) phenotypes as well as expression and localization of proteins including AR isoforms in CTCs. - To evaluate safety in the 2 treatment arms.
The study is aimed at answering the questions; (1) How well do the most commonly used treatments in iSGS work? and (2) What quality-of-life trade-offs are associated with each approach? With the results of this trial, the investigators hope to provide information to iSGS patients: (1) Given my personal characteristics, conditions, and preferences, what should I expect will happen to me? and (2) What are my options, and what are the potential benefits and harms of these options?
This is a randomized, vehicle controlled, active comparator, parallel group, study with a total duration of 24 weeks including screening and follow-up. Study drug is applied topically for 2 cycles of 4 week treatment, separated by 4 weeks off-treatment. Assessors of study endpoints are blinded to treatment allocation.
This is a phase IIb clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous immunotherapy with a modified parvalbumin called mCyp c 1 for the treatment of fish allergy to subjects allergic to fish.
The main objective is to compare efficacy, in terms of antifungal activity of Loceryl Nail Lacquer associated with a Cosmetic Varnish and Loceryl Nail Lacquer alone, in the treatment of mild to moderate toenail Distal Subungual Onychomycosis. The second objective of this study will be photographic follow-up of clinical improvement and cure after the initial treatment period of 12 weeks, for 15 additional months.
The purpose of this study was to characterize the safety and tolerability of long-term administration of evolocumab in adults with known coronary artery disease and hypercholesterolemia.
Patients who have been admitted to Intensive Care Units (ICU) and are intubated and mechanically ventilated for longer than 48 hours have impaired physical, psychological and social health and well-being six to twelve months after discharge. The advocacy of intensive physiotherapy and mobilization early in the course of critical illness has been established. It is of great importance to study the long-term outcomes (physical function and quality of life) in intubated and ventilated patients who start exercising and ambulating mobilizing) as soon as possible during ICU stay because the most effective mode, intensity or frequency of exercise needs to be identified. The aim is to study the short- and long-term outcomes of enhanced early physiotherapy and upright position in critically ill patients on prolonged invasive ventilation and to develop principles to guide physiotherapists in their clinical decision making in the ICU.
At least one fifth of patients in European hospitals are malnourished. Malnutrition is associated with negative consequences, including higher rates of complications, longer hospital stay, impaired wound healing and increased mortality with consequent effects on costs of healthcare. Evidence suggests that there may be benefits to some malnourished patients from receiving oral nutrition supplements in the short-term but it is not known whether these benefits can be sustained and indeed whether similar benefits may be achieved using food-based interventions of lower cost. The overall objective of the study is to compare two nutritional interventions among malnourished patients with COPD (n=200); oral nutrition supplement (ONS) vs. energy and protein dense in-between meals snack during hospitalisation and at home. Subjects will be followed for one year. The primary endpoint is weight change. Secondary endpoints include forced expiratory volume in one second, forced vital capacity, six-minute walk distance, hand-grip strength, health related quality of life, length of hospital stay, energy- and protein intake, readmissions to the hospital and acute exacerbation. No studies are available comparing the supply of ONS to malnourished patients with COPD compared with the provision of regular food (in-between meals snacks). The results of the study will provide important information that might improve nutrition care in the hospital setting as well as after discharge from the hospital
