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.
The overall objective of this study is to confirm that ctDNA detected after curative intended treatment for PDAC is a marker of residual disease and for risk-of-recurrence, and applicable in clinical practice. Primary objective To confirm that ctDNA analyses performed after PDAC treatment can identify patients with a high risk-of-recurrence. Specifically, we want to determine the association between disease-free survival (DFS) and ctDNA detection status after (1) curative-intended surgery and (2) adjuvant chemotherapy.
The aim of the current study is to explore whether culturally adapted internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy is effective in reducing the symptoms of various common mental health problems among Arabic-speaking refugee and migrant youth. We hypothesize that the symptoms of the psychological problems will significantly be reduced among youth who will receive iCBT compared to youth in the control group.
The aim of this project is to evaluate a novel treatment program for individuals with intractable and lethal self-harm. The main questions are: 1: Is there, in individuals with intractable self-harm, a relevant improvement in daily functioning and is this improvement related to the provided interventions? The secondary research questions are: 2. Is there, in individuals with intractable self-harm, a relevant improvement in frequency and severity of self-harm? 3. Is there, in individuals with intractable self-harm, a relevant improvement in voluntary hospital admissions? 4. Is there, in individuals with intractable self-harm, a relevant improvement in compulsary hospital admissions? 5. Is there, in individuals with intractable self-harm, a relevant improvement in the use of medication pro re nata? 6. Is there, in individuals with intractable self-harm, a relevant improvement in cost-effectiveness related to the provided interventions?
The study is a randomized controlled trial (Total N=150; each condition n=75) of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT), with measures at pre, weekly during treatment, post, three and at six month follow-up. Participants will be assigned to either standard iCBT and "Spelpaus" (treatment condition), or "Spelpaus" only (control condition).
Replication of three clinical trial emulations CANVAS, LEADER, and SAVOR TIMI that form part of the RCT-Duplicate initiative, sponsored by the FDA and delivered by the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. AstraZeneca will use the Instant Health Data platform PANALGOS (IHD) for the analyses.
The general increase in screen time as a time-consuming leisure activity among children and youth has been a puzzle to the adult world. Specifically, parents and professionals who work with children and youth express concern for the effect excessive screen time including gaming may have for child and youth development. The clinical picture of problematic gaming and excessive screen time describes compulsion, psychiatric and physical symptoms, impaired cognitive development, and school performance. The aim of this project is to set up and evaluate an easily accessible family centered treatment intervention for a child and adolescent psychiatry population. This study can lead to reduced suffering by optimization the care interventions for patients with problematic gaming and gambling.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effects of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on sexual recidivism risk in a Swedish sample of incarcerated men convicted of sexual offenses. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the CBT program CONSENT reduce the risk of recidivism in sexual offenses among males convicted of sexual offending? The CONSENT program, specifically targeting risk factors for sexual recidivism, will be compared with a waiting list. The evaluation will focus on potential change in dynamic risk factors for sexual recidivism. The study is part of the project Preventing Sexual Abuse: CBT Programs for Convicted Men and Women in a Correctional Setting.
Despite evidence showing that speech and language intervention may improve language and communication abilities in people with acquired language disorders (aphasia), there is still need for evidence for which types of therapy are effective. Further, to improve accessibility of care, there is increasing need for evidence of intervention effects when therapy is provided online, via telerehabilitation. Therefore, the project aims at evaluating the effects of telerehabilitation with a specific speech-language therapy intervention for improving word-finding in individuals with aphasia due to stroke. The intervention Verb Network Strengthening Treatment (VNeST) trains word finding at sentence level, and the treatment effect is expected to generalize to the production of connected speech.
To identify tumor specific DNA mutations and aberrations and to follow these in blood over time to predict treatment response/survival and secondly to correlate presence of these markers in blood to pathological parameters (LVI, Pn, WPOI and margins), radiological findings and to tumor stage.
Youth with substance use disorder (SUD) and socially disruptive behaviour (such as criminality) who are placed in compulsory institutional care are at high risk of continuing a destructive lifestyle into adulthood. There is a pressing need for effective treatment for this group, yet studies are scarce. The empirically supported SUD treatment Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach, A-CRA, promotes long-term abstinence, increases social stability and decreases co-morbid psychiatric problems for youth ages 12-25. A-CRA is proven to be one of the most effective SUD treatments for youth but has only been evaluated in outpatient care. Given A-CRA's promising results for youth in vulnerable living situations, it is a reasonable treatment to adjust and evaluate in compulsory care. The main objectives are to evaluate the effectiveness of A-CRA, the short- and long-term effects on social-, emotional- and problem behavior and substance use, for youth placed in compulsory institutional care.
