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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate elenestinib (BLU-263) in participants with Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis (AdvSM), SM with an associated hematologic neoplasm (SM-AHN), and other hematologic malignancies. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Determine Recommended Dose of elenestinib (BLU-263) monotherapy for participants with AdvSM - Safety and tolerability of elenestinib (BLU-263) monotherapy - Efficacy of elenestinib (BLU-263) monotherapy in participants with AdvSM - Determine Recommended Dose of elenestinib (BLU-263) in combination with azacitidine in participants with AdvSM - Safety and tolerability of elenestinib (BLU-263) in combination with azacitidine - Efficacy of elenestinib (BLU-263) in combination with azacitidine in participants with AdvSM The estimated study duration for each participant will be approximately 4 years: 2 years of treatment followed by 2 years of follow-up. Participants may be required to attend monthly visits for the first six months, followed by quarterly visits for the remainder of the study.
The aim of the study is to obtain microvascular data from a healthy, heterogeneous population for assessing reference values for the parameters Functional Capillary Density (FCD), heterogeneity of FCD, Microvascular Oxygen Saturation (SmvO2) and Heterogeneity of SmvO2 for healthy adults with respect to gender, age, and skin type (Fitzpatrick scale)
The purpose with this study is to test if the app-based stress management program StressProffen, can be of interest and support for stress management among health care providers.
Objectives: The main objective of the study is to investigate 1. How many patients will attend and complete dental care if they are offered it for free during the stay at "The department of substance abuse treatment, University Hospital North Norway (UNN) in Narvik". 2. Explore whether a parallel dental treatment in addition to the other treatment at the department has a beneficial effect on the abuse treatment, or whether it can be disruptive to offer dental treatment in combination with admission for drug rehabilitation?
This study is based on a 4-week double-blind, randomized, controlled, parallel design investigation to investigate the impact of intermittent negative pressure on spasticity and pain in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) (NCT05562453). The investigational device (FlowOx2.0™) is composed of a Pressure Chamber and a Control Unit (and disposable parts). All subjects will receive the same pressure chamber but be randomized to either a Control Unit that generates intermittent negative pressure (INP) of - (minus) 40 mmHg or a Control Unit that generates INP of - 10 mmHg. FlowOx2.0™ generating -40 mmHg is the investigational device, and FlowOx2.0™ generating -10 mmHg, is the comparator device. After the initial 4-week double-blind period (NCT05562453), all participants will be offered the -40mmHg control unit to be used during a 6-months optional extension part. The participants who volunteer to continue in the 6-months optional extension part will be included in this study.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a prevalent and disabling condition. Trauma-focused psychotherapy, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), are among the recommended first-line treatment alternatives. However, a substantial proportion of patients decline, drop-out or do not respond to current psychotherapies. Previous research suggests that intensive or concentrated formats of trauma-focused psychotherapy can lead to faster recover and lower attrition, but there are currently few studies of these approaches. The current study will investigate the acceptability. treatment satisfaction and preliminary changes in symptoms after four consecutive days of concentrated CBT for PTSD.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of three different strategies to inject at reduced volume of contrast medium in Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography (CTPA). 330 patients referred for CTPA are randomized to receive either a low-concentration, a low-volume or a saline-diluted injection. Effects on the level and homogeneity of contrast enhancement are measured and compared between groups.
Patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) will be monitored with laser speckle flow graphy (LSFG), swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and SS-OCT angiography (SS-OCTA). The aim is to unveil the flow and pulse wave characteristics of the choroidal circulation in acute CSC and chronic CSC.
N-DOSE is a double-blinded placebo-controlled randomized trial aiming to determine the optimal biological dose (OBD) of nicotinamide riboside (NR), in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). The investigators recently reported the NADPARK study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03816020), a phase I randomized, double-blinded trial, assessing the tolerability, cerebral bioavailability and molecular effects of NR therapy, 1000mg daily, in PD. The NADPARK study showed that NR 1000mg daily was well tolerated and led to a significant, but variable, increase in cerebral NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) levels (measured by 31phosphorous magnetic resonance spectroscopy, 31P-MRS) and related metabolites in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). NR recipients showing increased brain NAD levels exhibited altered cerebral metabolism, measured by 18fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), and this was associated with mild clinical improvement. The results of the NADPARK trial nominate NR as a potential neuroprotective therapy for PD, warranting further investigation in larger trials. The investigators recently conducted the NR-SAFE safety trial comparing 3000mg NR to placebo in 20 participants with PD over 4 weeks (NCT: NCT05344404) which showed no moderate or severe adverse events, and no signs of acute toxicity. Due to the variability in response to NR in the NADPARK trial, the N-DOSE study will investigate the response to escalating doses of NR from 1000mg to 3000mg over 12 weeks, in order to ascertain the optimal biological dose of NR in PD.
REBECCA-1 is an observational study. Clinical research is undergoing a revolutionary change. The use of electronic patient records (EHR), digital registers, smartphones etc will create "real-world data" (RWD) that provides great opportunities for advancing clinical research, but so far this opportunity has been little exploited. The REBECCA -1 study will observe and monitor fatigue in breast cancer survivors. Investigators will use self reported questionnaires (PROM-data), blood tests and objective regulations like the REBECCCA -1 smart watch that will register amount of steps every day, leaving the house, visiting friends, cafes etc. There will be three observational arms; 1.high fatigue, 2. low fatigue and 3. a healthy control arm. After the patients have finished their treatment, they will receive the REBECCA smart watch, a REBECCA app on the smart phone and a REBECCA plus device on their computer, The next offend are also invited to report their evaluation through the same apps. The observational time will be 1 year and comparison between the subjective PROM data , the objective REBECCA watch and the biological samples will be obtained.
