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.
Objective: We investigated the outcomes of a nurse-led family intervention, Health Promoting Conversations, which focused on family functioning and wellbeing in families with a critically ill member. Study design: This randomized controlled pilot study used a pre-test, post-test design with intervention and control groups to investigate the outcomes of the nurse-led intervention in 17 families. Outcome measures: The Health Promoting Conversations intervention was evaluated using validated instruments that measure family functioning and family wellbeing: the General Functioning sub-scale from the McMaster Family Assessment Device; the Family Sense of Coherence, the Herth Hope Index, and the Medical Outcome Short-Form Health Survey. Descriptive and analytical statistical methods were used to analyse the data.
This is a randomized, 2-arm, open-label, multicenter, international phase II trial. A total of 196 patients will be included. The study will include patients with metastatic Hormone Receptor positive / Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER2) negative breast cancer with progressive disease after endocrine treatment. Patients will be randomized (1:1) between two treatment arms: A. palbociclib + fulvestrant and b. capecitabine.
Inflammation and abnormal amount of lipids in the blood are key factors for the development and progression of atherosclerosis (thickening of the artery wall) and cardiovascular disease. Lipoprotein (a) is a pro-inflammatory plasma lipoprotein that is believed to be a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Vascular inflammation generates a range of effects, including endothelial dysfunction and migration of white blood cells into the vessel wall, which results in increased risk of cardiovascular events. This study is designed to assess the effects of multiple monthly intravenous infusions with the fully human antibody called PC-mAb, in subjects with elevated lipoprotein (a).
The primary objective of the study was to compare the effect of sotagliflozin to placebo on total occurrences of cardiovascular (CV) death, hospitalization for heart failure [HHF], and urgent visit for heart failure [HF] in participants with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular risk factors, and moderate to severely impaired renal function.
Patients with acute ischemic stroke in anterior circulation within 4,5 hours of symptom onset, has a bone window and Trombolysis In Brain Ischemia (TIBI) <=4 in a relevant artery eligible. Both patients receiving thrombolysis and those who do not due to contraindications such as anticoagulation or recent surgery are enrolled, but into different study arms (CE-5S A for thrombolysis and B for non-thrombolysis); the decision to treat with thrombolysis or not is done according to clinical routine. All included patients are randomized to receive transcranial ultrasound and SonoVue-infusion or sham-ultrasound and placebo; i.e. in CE-5S A, contrast enhanced sonothrombolysis is compared to thrombolysis and in CE-5S B, contrast enhanced sonolysis is compared with conservative management. Main outcome is improvement in National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at 24 hours compared to baseline. Main safety outcome is symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage.
This was a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Semorinemab in participants with prodromal to mild Alzheimer's disease. An optional 96-week open-label extension period was available to participants who completed the double-blind treatment period and who, in the judgment of the investigator, would potentially benefit from open-label Semorinemab treatment.
Patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary embolism and high thromboembolic risk will be randomized to screening for atrial fibrillation or standard of care using intermittent ECG registration for at least two weeks.
The primary objective of this study is to describe the efficacy of vilaprisan in subjects with uterine fibroids compared to ulipristal. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different treatment regimens of vilaprisan in subjects with uterine fibroids.
Primary Objective: To assess the effects of SAR407899 on coronary vasomotor function using the coronary flow reserve (CFR) in participants with microvascular angina (MVA) and/or persistent stable angina despite angiographically successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Secondary Objectives: - To assess the effects of SAR407899 on quality of life using Seattle Angina Questionnaire physical limitation scale (SAQ-PL) in participants with MVA and/or persistent stable angina despite angiographically successful PCI. - To assess the safety of SAR407899 in participants with MVA and/or persistent stable angina despite angiographically successful PCI with a focus on identified risks such as hypotension and orthostatic hypotension. - To assess SAR407899 plasma concentrations in MVA participants and/or persistent stable angina despite angiographically successful PCI.
The main objective is to study whether imaging detection of the biomarker DAT can be used to detect kidney tumors identified by computer tomography (CT), which are pathologically assesses as being of the clear cell subtype.
