There are about 5161 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Norway. 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.
This is a Phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study designed to investigate whether tafasitamab and lenalidomide as an add-on to rituximab provides improved clinical benefit compared with lenalidomide as an add-on to rituximab in patients with R/R FL Grade 1 to 3a or R/R MZL.
The investigators aim to test whether inviting immigrants to breast cancer screening with a letter in their mother tongue in addition to the standard letter in Norwegian changes screening uptake in these immigrant groups, compared with a comparable group who receive the invitation in Norwegian only,
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of three study medicines (encorafenib, binimetinib, and pembrolizumab) given together for the treatment of melanoma that: - is advanced or metastatic (spread to other parts of the body); - has a certain type of abnormal gene called "BRAF"; and - has not received prior treatment. All participants in this study will receive pembrolizumab at the study clinic once every 3 weeks as an intravenous (IV) infusion (given directly into a vein). In addition, half of the participants will take encorafenib and binimetinib orally (by mouth) at home every day. Participants may receive pembrolizumab for up to two years. Those participants taking encorafenib and binimetinib can continue until their melanoma is no longer responding. The study team will monitor how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the study clinic.
This is a pivotal phase III study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in adolescents with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
The current Randomised Controlled Trial study delivers and evaluate an evidence-based prevention program from Australia (Tuning in to Kids: TIK) to parent of preschool children. Reports from parents and preschool teachers are used to determine whether the program leads to universal benefits of improved wellbeing and reduced mental health difficulties for children and parents.
In this population study aim is to evaluate risk factors for heart failure and combine these into a new heart failure risk score. Secondly, the heart failure risk score will be internally and externally validated, and compared with established heart failure risk scores. Additionally, the prevalence of heart failure as well as the distribution of the heart failure risk score in the general population will be evaluated.
More than 12.000 patients suffer acute stroke in Norway every year, but less than half of them reach hospital within the current treatment window for thrombolysis. Stroke is the third-highest cause of death and the number one cause of severe disability requiring long time care at institutions. Consequently this has a high impact on society, patients and relatives, in addition to high costs related to care estimated to approximately 10 billion NOK per year. Although there are few studies on emergency medical communication centres (EMCC) in Norway, some have shown that the performance of the emergency medical communication centres can be improved. This project will seek to amend EMCC´s handling of acute stroke inquiries using artificial intelligence (AI), thus contributing to getting the patient to hospital in time for optimal treatments.
This study will provide a comprehensive assessment of long-term treatment with the ketogenic diet, a medical diet with high fat and low carbohydrate intake, focusing on safety and cardiovascular implications. We will assess patients with epilepsy or one of two rare metabolic diseases; glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1 DS) or pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency (PDHD).
The purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab + adjuvant chemotherapy with placebo + adjuvant chemotherapy, with or without radiotherapy, with respect to disease-free survival (DFS) as assessed radiographically by the investigator or by histopathologic confirmation of suspected disease recurrence, and with respect to overall survival (OS). The primary hypotheses are that pembrolizumab + adjuvant chemotherapy is superior to placebo + adjuvant chemotherapy, with or without radiotherapy, with respect to DFS as assessed radiographically by the investigator or by histopathologic confirmation of suspected disease recurrence, and with respect to OS.
Lipedema is a female progressive fat disorder, characterized by a symmetrical increase in subcutaneous adipose tissue in the lower extremities with the exception of the waist. The condition is often misdiagnosed and underdiagnosed. The etiology is poorly understood. Affects about 11% of all women and may lead to pain and immobility. The pathophysiology may be related to sex hormones and inflammatory response. Lipedema fat has been reported not to respond to lifestyle changes or bariatric surgery, both in terms of weight loss and symptom reduction; including pain and quality of life. Clinical research on the effect of dietary interventions on lipedema does not exist, but a pilot study with a ketogenic diet showed a significant reduction in pain regardless of weight loss. The aim of the research project will be to investigate whether a ketogenic diet can be a treatment option for patients with lipedema. Therefore, a randomized controlled trial will be conducted to compare the effects of two diets. 1) energy-restricted ketogenic diet and 3) energy-restricted low-fat non-ketogenic diet for 8 weeks. Pain and quality of life will be mesured at start and immediately after the intervention. The hypothesis is that a ketogenic diet may reduce pain and improve quality of life.
