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.
Saroglitazar Magnesium 1 mg and 2 mg tablets for treatment of subjects with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC)
This is a phase III randomized open label study designed to compare JDQ443 as monotherapy to docetaxel in participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring a KRAS G12C mutation who have been previously treated with a platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy either in sequence or in combination.
Intrusive memories are sensory memories of a traumatic event(s) that spring to mind involuntarily, evoke strong emotions, and disrupt functioning in daily life. Previous research has demonstrated that a brief cognitive intervention can prevent the development of intrusive memories as well as reduce the number of intrusive memories of long-standing trauma. Initial pilot work (using case studies) with women in Iceland indicates that the intervention is acceptable and feasible. This exploratory pilot trial will compare remote delivery of the intervention (i.e. brief, digitally delivered imagery-competing task intervention, n = 12) to an attention-placebo control condition (i.e., brief, digitally delivered relaxation exercise task; n = 12). We will explore whether (relative to the control condition) the intervention: (i) reduces the number of intrusive memories (primary outcome), and (ii) improves other symptoms and functioning. This study is funded by the OAK foundation (OCAY-18-442) and the Strategic Research and Development Program: Societal Challenges in Iceland (200095-5601).
This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the Power Knee Mainstream Dynamic compared to passive microprocessor-controlled knees (MPKs) regarding metabolic cost for high active transfemoral amputees.The test is of a single group repeated measures crossover design. The primary endpoint is the difference in MET/HRI-VO2 index between conditions. Subjects are measured on their prescribed device at visit 1, be fitted to the PKM which they wear as their primary prosthesis for one week before coming for visit 2 and being measured again on the PKM.
Study CKJX839B12302 is a pivotal Phase III trial to evaluate the benefits of inclisiran on major adverse cardiovascular (MACE) events in participants with established cardiovascular disease (CVD).
The purpose of the Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection (PRECEDE) Consortium is to conduct research on multiple aspects of early detection and prevention of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by establishing a multisite cohort of individuals with family history of PDAC and/or individuals carrying pathogenic/likely pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) in genes linked to PDAC risk for longitudinal follow up.
The World Health Organisation Patient Safety Challenge: Medication Without Harm has brought our attention to the importance of medication-related harm as a global public health issue. One of the major contributing factors is polypharmacy, the usage of multiple medicines at the same time. People are getting older and living longer with chronic diseases; they need more medications, which frequently leads to polypharmacy. Subsequently, they are at more risk of medication-related harm. The planned project is an epidemiological study on polypharmacy, medication appropriateness, risk factors, and clinical outcomes post-discharge from a hospital for surgical patients. The study group hypothesise that pre-and post-operative polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate prescribing is common, especially among older patients, patients with a high comorbidity and frailty burden, and patients undergoing more complicated surgery. Our hypothesis is additionally that preoperative polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate prescribing is associated with a higher short- and long-term mortality, a longer primary hospitalization length of stay, and a higher risk of readmission.
The purpose of this platform study is to evaluate the effect of anti-inflammatory agents on cognition in early Alzheimer's disease. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of these anti-inflammatory agents and the effects on central and peripheral inflammation will be evaluated.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ALZ-801 in Early Alzheimer's disease (AD) subjects with the APOE4/4 genotype. This is a double-blind, randomized trial with one dose of ALZ-801 compared to placebo.
The study evaluates if the Newborn Behavioral Observation system, a relationship building tool, delivered to at risk mothers will have, on one site, an effect on maternal sensitivity and the other site on Childs responsiveness, measured by the Emotional Availability (EA) Scales at 4 months post partum.
