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 main aim of this study is to see how TAK-861 works on symptoms of narcolepsy, including excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy. Approximately 100 participants will take part in the study across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. The treatment (TAK-861 or placebo) will be administered for 8 or 12 weeks. After this treatment period the participant will have the option to participate in a separate, long- term extension study during which all participants will be treated with TAK-861.
Aim is to investigate repeatability and stability of four Neurological-related Bulbicam tests in patients suffering Parkinson (PD),Ataxia (AT) and matched healthy control (HC). Study population The study consists of the patients suffering from PD or AT and HV of both genders above 18 years of age without any eye- or neurological disorder. Bulbicam will be used in the study and five tests will be performed The study will be performed as a controlled, open and non-randomized, stratified observational single center. The stratification factors will be pathology (PD&AT) and internal classifications. ed. The main variables will be the variables recorded at the four Bulbicam tests and the standard neuro-ophthalmological variables included for PD and AT Participants, who fulfil the inclusion criteria; do not meet any of the exclusion criteria and willing to give informed consent to participate will receive an appointment for starting the study. During the first day of the study, the included patients will undergo a neuro-ophthalmological examination by a neurologist. Additionally, Bulbicam examination will be performed twice with a rest period of one hour between each registration. The healthy controls will only undergo a standard examination and twice BulbiCam examination. The controls will only participate one day. The patients will participate two more days with two Bulbicam examinations per day. Sample size: Sixteen PD-patients ,16 AT-patients and 32 HCs will be included in the study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting a larger randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of perioperative propranolol capsules compared with placebo capsules in decreasing recurrence of prostate cancer (PCa) after robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) in participants with intermediate to high-risk for prostate cancer recurrence.
The PROTEOS study is an randomized controlled, open label, parallel-group, multi-centre and multicounty interventional study to assess the acceptance and implementation of Compact Protein, a low volume, energy dense and high protein oral nutritional support in clinical practice according to the ESPEN guidelines in colorectal and lung cancer patients undergoing chemo(radio)- or immunotherapy treatment.
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the temperature profiles in the renal pelvis during ureteroscopic Thulium Fiber Laser activation using different settings. To this end, comparison of peak temperatures during laser activation for different settings is the main aim. Secondary aim is trying to define the duration of safe laser activation until the threshold for heat induced cell injury (43oC) is reach. Patients ≥ 18 years with a ureteral stone (with or without a concomitant renal stone) and an indwelling nephrostomy tube scheduled for ureteroscopic lithotripsy at the day surgery unit at Haukeland University Hospital, are eligible to enrolment in the study. Temperature measurements during ureteroscopic laser stone disintegration will be performed. Follow-up is standardised with clinical consultation and low dose CT 3 months post endoscopically.
The present study registration relates to a quantitative sub-study of a larger mixed method study, including also a qualitative sub-study. Together, these investigations will provide complementary insights. The quantitative study is a follow-up study of close relatives (> 16 years) of patients in treatment for substance use disorder (SUD) who participated in a group-based 4-day psychoeducational program.
This study investigates whether spores from birch rust fungi (Melampsoridium Betulinum = MB) may be the eliciting allergen in patients with seasonal airway allergy during autumn in North Norway. Patients with suspected allergy to MB are compared with non-allergic controls using data about allergic disease and daily allergic symptoms during autumn. Potential variations in allergic symptoms during season will be compared with spread of MB spores. Sensitation to MB and MB allergy are to be tested with skin prick test (SPT), measurements of spesific immunglobulin E (IgE) in serum, passive basophil activation test (pBAT) and nasal provocation test (NPT)
To examine if perioperative pain/nausea/pruritus is altered when current standard analgesia for caesarian section (CS) is replaced with new guideline recommended analgesia.
The goal of this non-inferiority observational study is to assess the diagnostic performance of low-dose CT with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) in adult participants with acute abdominal conditions. The main research question is: • Can low-dose CT with DLIR achieve the same diagnostic performance as standard CT for the diagnosis of acute abdominal conditions. Participants will be examined with an additional low-dose CT directly after the standard CT. Participant will be their own controls.
Renal lithium clearance is hypothesized to be a useful indicator of renal tubular function. In this study lithium clearance will be monitored in patients with sepsis associated acute kidney injury and in healthy controls.
