There are about 8563 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. 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 2, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and exploratory efficacy of 3 doses of CS1 in the treatment of PAH using the CardioMEMS HF System to obtain repeated measurements of PAP and other hemodynamic parameters. Elegible subjects will have a RHC to implant the CardioMEMS pulmonary artery (PA) Sensor followed by a Baseline Period for the subject to become familiar with the system, its measurements, how to send the data, and establish Baseline PA pressure. Alternately, the subject may already have the CardioMEMS HF System and is willing to have the system recalibrated in conjunction with RHC. Thereafter, the subject will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 total daily doses of CS1 1:1:1; there will be 10 subjects assigned to each dose level. Subjects will receive study drug treatment for 12 weeks. During the study, mPAP and other hemodynamic parameters from CardioMEMS PA Sensor will be measured and data captured once daily in the morning before the subject gets out of bed. The data will be transferred electronically to a repository. The analysis will look at the area under the curve (AUC) of mPAP and the doses will be compared to each other regarding change from Baseline. In addition to the CardioMEMS HF System measurements, the subjects will be followed for mortality and morbidity, important biomarkers as well as subjective, functional, and structural parameters of importance for PAH, for the duration of the study. Subjects will be enrolled for up to 22 weeks: a Screening Period of up to 2 weeks prior to the start of the Baseline Period, a Baseline Period of up to 6 weeks prior to Randomization, a Treatment Period of 12 weeks, and a Follow-up Period of 2 weeks. The primary objective of the study is to obtain safety and tolerability data.
To evaluate if the combination of pivmecillinam and clavulanic acid (PAC) is non-inferior to ciprofloxacin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole or ertapenem as step down oral therapy in patients with febrile UTI caused by extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacterales (EPE).
Studies have shown that combining chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) prolongs survival compared with chemotherapy alone in extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (ES SCLC), but the survival benefit is modest. The main aim of this trial is to investigate whether there is a synergistic/additive effect of concurrent thoracic radiotherapy in ES SCLC patients receiving carboplatin/etoposide/durvalumab.
The purpose of the study is to survey how many women have breast implants in the mammography screening population and the effect of implants on the number and type of examinations and on costs.
This randomized, controlled pilot trial evaluated the efficacy of a brief internet-based recovery training intervention targeting distressed employees. This pilot trial is one of the first to examine a brief recovery training program's efficacy, suggesting that employees across a wide range of professions could learn how to recover from elevated stress symptoms. This type of accessible and brief recovery intervention might shape the future of stress prevention, but more research is needed with larger samples before further conclusions can be drawn.
An obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASI) occurs during the final stage of a vaginal delivery. This tissue laceration, even if adequately sutured, poses a substantial threat to bowel continence in women.1,2 In a recent register-based study we showed that following an OASI at the first birth, the risk of a repeat injury almost tripled and that the long-term prevalence of fecal incontinence (FI) doubled in women with 1 OASI and tripled in those with 2 consecutive OASIs, in comparison with nulliparous women not affected by childbirth.3 Most OASIs occur seemingly by chance in the absence of known risk markers, and there is still no prediction model that is of use to avoid OASI in the clinical setting.4 Therefore, these injuries are often excused as inevitable and impossible to foresee. The aim of this study is to develop and validate prediction models for the risk of an OASI in high- and low-risk scenarios.
Traditionally, hemodynamic response e.g. pulse and blood pressure are used to evaluate pain in humans who are anesthetized. These values, however, can be affected by factors other than pain response . In this observational study, different types of digital methods are used that can distinguish signs of pain. However, the study aim to collect data and correlate in between different methods to ensure its reliability.
This study is open to people with a type of cancer called dedifferentiated liposarcoma. People with advanced liposarcoma aged 18 or older who are not receiving any other cancer treatment can participate. The purpose of this study is to compare a medicine called brigimadlin (BI 907828) with doxorubicin in people with liposarcoma. Brigimadlin (BI 907828) is a so-called MDM2 inhibitor that is being developed to treat cancer. Doxorubicin is a medicine already used to treat cancer including liposarcoma. During the study, participants get either brigimadlin (BI 907828) or doxorubicin. Every 3 weeks, participants take brigimadlin (BI 907828) as tablets or doxorubicin as an infusion into a vein. Participants can switch to brigimadlin (BI 907828) treatment if they did not benefit from doxorubicin treatment. Participants can continue treatment in the study as long as they benefit from it and can tolerate it. Doctors regularly check the size of the tumour and check whether it has spread to other parts of the body. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Every-day life means being part of a complex environment and performing complex tasks that usually involve a combination of motor and cognitive skills. However, the process of aging or the sequelae of neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD) compromises motor-cognitive interaction necessary for an independent lifestyle. While motor-cognitive performance has been identified as an important goal for sustained health across different clinical populations, little is known about underlying brain function leading to these difficulties and how to best target these motor-cognitive difficulties in the context of rehabilitation and exercise interventions. The challenge of improving treatments of motor-cognitive difficulties (such as dual-tasking and navigation) is daunting, and an important step is arriving at a method that accurately portrays these impairments in an ecological valid state. The investigators aim therefore to explore brain function during complex walking in healthy and PD by investigating the effects of age and neurological disease on motor-cognitive performance and its neural correlates during three conditions of complex walking (dual-task walking, navigation and a combination of both) using non-invasive measures of brain activity (functional near infrared spectrometry, fNIRS) and advanced gait analysis in real time in young, older healthy adults and people with PD.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of daily and every other day dosing of rimegepant to placebo as a preventive treatment for episodic migraine.
