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.
Background Digital vasospasm as part of frostbite sequelae is comparable to the vasospastic disorders found in Raynaud's phenomenon which has been successfully treated with Botulinum toxin type A injections in the palm of the hands. Aim of this pilot study To investigate the effect of Botulinum toxin type A for frostbite sequelae in the fingers. Hypothesis The null hypothesis which is that all study-subjects will have equal distribution of symptoms and measurements after treatment, regardless of injection with Botulinum toxin type A or placebo. Methodology A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study design, The study population consists of four patients with frostbite sequelae. The patients are randomized to either treatment with Botulinum toxin type A or placebo Two patients in the primary treatment group will receive Botulinum toxin type A at their first injection at inclusion, while the two patients in the secondary treatment group will receive normal saline (placebo) as their first injection at inclusion. At 6 weeks follow up, the primary treatment group will receive their second injection of Botulinum toxin type A and the secondary treatment group now will receive their second injection, but this will be their first injection of Botulinum toxin type A. By using the described study-design, all participating soldiers will get treatment. However, the secondary treatment group will have a delayed onset of treatment with Botulinum toxin type A and serves as a control for the primary treatment group during the initial 6 weeks observation. Botulinum toxin A and placed will be injected near the neurovascular bundle at the A1 pulley in the palm of the hand using a total dosage 100 U per hand (concentration 50 U per ml), 8-12 U/ injection site. The effect of Botulinum toxin type A on subjective symptoms will be measured by Patients Subjective Symptom Score (PSSS) The effect of Botulinum toxin type A on peripheral microcirculation will be evaluated with dynamic infrared thermography (DIRT) of the dorsal side of the hands. Quantitative sensory testing will be used to evaluate the effect of Botulinum toxin type A on peripheral nerve function. Both DIRT and QST will be performed prior to the treatment with Botulinum toxin type A and placebo at the start of the pilot study, at 6 weeks as well as 6 weeks after the last injections. Statistical methods and data analysis will be performed according to the EMA guidelines for biostatistics. Statistical analysis will be performed according to the null hypothesis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alnuctamab compared to standard of care regimens in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of liso-cel vs Investigator's Choice options (idelalisib + rituximab or bendamustine + rituximab) in adult participants with R/R CLL or SLL, whose disease has failed treatment with both BTKi and BCL2i targeted therapies.
The aim of this study is to 1. register possible changes to uteroplacental circulation in relation to physical tests, 2. to register energy and nutritional intake, relationship towards the body during pregnancy and during the early period after giving birth, 3. register the experience of guidance given related to exercise, nutrition, and recovery, 4. register elite athletes' experience of combining the role of being a mom and an elite athlete, and 5. register attitudes and reactions from the support system when it comes to being an elite athlete and being pregnant. Material and method: 30 pregnant female elite athletes and 30 moderately physically active pregnant women will be recruited for the completion of physical testing and questionnaires and questionnaires only, respectively. 20 national team leaders/coaches and 10 sponsors will be recruited for a semi-structured interview about attitudes, reactions and guidance towards athletes who become pregnant and still wish to continue their career as an athlete after pregnancy.
Test the ability of continuous measurements from a new sensor patch to set the hydration state in subjects who are malnourished/dehydrated or overhydrated or otherwise not optimally hydrated. Specifically, clinical examination, blood pressure, blood tests, and weight change at the admission and at the discharge will be used to establish the true hydration status of the subjects.
This is a prospective, single arm, open, single centre clinical investigation designed to examine the feasibility and safety of the IscAlert™ device in patients scheduled for limb (arm/leg) surgery with tourniquet. IscAlert is measuring carbon dioxide in muscular and subcutaneous tissue. IscAlert is inserted into normal muscle and subcutaneous tissue in ischemic (operated limb with a tourniquet) and non-ischemic limb (non-operated limb).After the tourniquet is inflated, ischemia develops in the muscles and subcutaneous tissue. This will result in an increase in carbon dioxide, which will be detected by the sensor on the operated extremity, while the sensor on the non-operated will show normal values. After releasing the tourniquet cuff, the muscle will be reperfused and the carbon dioxide level is expected to decrease into normal levels. 50 number of patients will be enrolled to undergo the procedures. The IscAlert will be removed from the patient before the patient is discharged from the operating room, but in 25 of the patients, IscAlert™ will be inserted for 72 hours in the operated extremity after the end of surgery. After this, the sensors are removed.250 Devices is planned to be used in this clinical study.
In people with type 2 diabetes (T2D), the body makes insulin, but cannot use it well. This results in high blood sugar levels causing damage to the blood vessels inside the kidneys. High blood pressure is a common condition that can cause damage to the blood vessels and heart if it is untreated. High blood pressure is also known as hypertension. Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) or high blood pressure are at a higher risk of having chronic kidney disease (CKD). In people with CKD, the kidneys become damaged and do not work as they should. Over time, the function of the kidney declines more, and this can lead to the requirement for dialysis or kidney transplantation. Most people with CKD are also at risk of heart conditions, such as heart attack or stroke. In this trial, the researchers want to learn if BAY2327949 reduces the amount of protein in the participants' urine. Protein in the urine is one of the signs of CKD. The researchers will compare the effects of BAY2327949 to a placebo. A placebo looks like the study drug but does not have any medicine in it. BAY2327949 is assumed to increase the blood flow through the kidneys, which may slow down the worsening of the disease. The researchers will use a placebo to learn if the changes seen in the participants are due to BAY2327949 or if the results could be due to chance. This trial will include about 120 men and women over the age of 45 who have CKD. The participants will have T2D or high blood pressure, and a further disease of the heart or blood vessels. During the trial, the participants will take either BAY2327949 or a placebo once a day for 28 days. The participants will visit their trial site about 9 times during the trial, and need to provide urine samples to check the participants' CKD symptoms. At the visits, the doctors will ask them if they have any health problems. They will also take blood samples to perform laboratory assessments.
This study is for participants with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer that has spread or has reoccurred after failure of Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy
The goal of this pilot study is to establish more information about hyperbaric oxygen therapy for this group of patients, and give us more information of how to initiate the best possible main study. Can we find any indications that support the use of this therapy for patients suffering from chronic disability after cerebral infarction? Can we improve physical and cognitive function.
Teeth with furcation grade III defects will be treated with open flap debridement, with or without osteoplasty. The study is designed to examine the effect of osteoplasty in the treatment of teeth with furcation grade III defects with open flap debridement.
