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.
A Phase 3b research study to consolidate the data that ivosidenib is safe and effective in adult patients with previously treated, locally advanced, or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). All patients who meet inclusion criteria will be enrolled to receive ivosidenib tablets orally once daily for 28 day cycles, continuing as long as clinical benefit and consent for participation is maintained. There will be a minimum of 6 study visits from screening until the final follow-up, if one cycle of treatment is completed and consent is maintained through 18 months of follow-up. Each additional cycle completed will add one study visit, on the first day of each cycle.
This 5-year project aims to (1) search for genetic causes for yet unsolved congenital skeletal disorders (GSDs); (2) study consequences of the newly identified pathogenic variants in cells and in transgenic mice, (3) summarize data on natural course and complications for different GSD groups. For patients with unsolved GSD, the investigators search for molecular causes of GSDs using whole genome sequencing (WGS) and total ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing. Candidate gene variants are selected using genome or transcriptome sequencing data, clinical findings and screening of omics databases. Causality of the new variants is studied in cells and in transgenic mice models. Molecular and clinical findings are summarized for different GSD groups.
The objective of this study is to collect colonoscopy data for use in the development and testing of artificial intelligence (AI) devices for colonoscopies.
Physical inactivity is an increasing problem in the general population in society. However, in people with disabilities, inactivity is even more frequently reported. Physical activity on prescription (PAP) is a well-established method to enhance physical activity. The prescribed physical activity can be activities such as walking, cycling, swimming, or gardening, and should be performed over a longer period. In children with cerebral palsy, PAP has shown to be feasible to increase participation in physical activity and to reduce sedentary behaviour, and the habilitation services in the Region of Skåne have decided to offer PAP to all children and youth with disabilities. It is of great importance to study these interventions when applied on a broader group of patients than previously studied. The aim is to study the effects of an individualised and health-enhancing intervention in physically inactive people with autism, intellectual and physical disabilities. Also, the cost-effectiveness of PAP will be studied. 60 physically inactive children, aged 8- 17 years, and 20 adults, with autism, intellectual or physical disability will be included. The participants are recruited by their clinical physiotherapists, who also will be carrying out the PAP-intervention. The self-selected physical activity/activities may either be a physical activity organized by a club and/or an everyday activity such as walking a dog or riding a bicycle to school. Each participant fills in an activity logbook. Motivational interviewing will be used to support the participants. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure can be used to identify what activities the participants are motivated to do, and to detect changes in the participants' perception of their performance of the activity. Quality of life will be monitored. Physical activity will be measured through the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and a movement monitor (accelerometer). Study specific questionnaires will be filled in regarding costs and background information. Data on health care use of the participants will retrospectively be collected and studied using the health care database in Region Skåne. Data will be collected at 3 months prior to the intervention, just before the intervention starts, when the intervention is finished, and at 6, 12 and 24 months after the intervention. The study has been approved by the Swedish Ethical Review Authority.
By reconstructing schoolyards with greenery, physical activity levels among children can be increased at the population level and also mitigate health and environmental risks resulting from rising climate changes in urban areas. The overarching purpose of the proposed project is to: i. increase physical activity levels among school-aged children, independent of socioeconomic factors, and thus affect short- and long-term health outcomes on a population level ii. establish an evidence-based bottom-up approach for schoolyard reconstructions iii. evaluate the cost-effectiveness of schoolyard reconstructions with greening on health outcomes and its environmental impact
The goal of thin randomized controlled trial is to investigate the efficacy of a prevention program for reducing the incidence of eating disorders among youth (15-20). We target youth at these ages who experience a subjective sense of body dissatisfaction, and are thus at increased risk of developing an eating disorder. The prevention program is based on improving protective factors such as body appreciation, body image flexibility, intuitive eating, and acceptance. It will be compared to a credible placebo (expressive writing).
The goal of this case-control study is to compare clinical characteristics in help-seeking individuals with paraphilic disorders or sexsomnia (sexual behaviors during sleep- a diagnosis in the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, (DSM-5)), as compared to healthy controls. The main questions this study aims to answer are: (1a) Is there a difference in experience of violence between the clinical population and healthy controls? Is there a difference between the clinical groups? (1b) What are the clinical characteristics of these conditions (psychiatric, sociodemographic, and genetic/epigenetic factors)? Does the clinical population differ from healthy controls? (1c) How are the psychometric properties of the assessment forms (primarily those addressing sexual deviance and compulsive sexuality) in the project? (1d) How has sexual interest developed over time among patients with paraphilic disorders? (including the person's own description of e.g. triggers and expectations). Follow-up of clinical population: (2) What is the typical treatment as usual (TAU) for the patient population? (e.g., average length of care, the percentage of dropouts and what kind of treatment has been given) (3) Are there any factors at baseline (e.g., presence of neuropsychiatric symptoms, age, symptom burden) that predict treatment outcome? (i.e., symptom burden based on self-assessments at follow-up 3, 6 and 12 months from the start of treatment and records in offence registers after 10 years).
The overall aim of the study is to establish the clinical importance of cardiac dysfunction, by estimating its incidence and impact on short- and long-term outcomes, in a mixed population of critically ill patients with multi-organ failure. Pathogenesis of cardiac dysfunction in critical illness and key molecules linked to this will be explored.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the added diagnostic and prognostic value of advanced medical imaging procedures in cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does advanced medical imaging predict survival? - Can advanced medical imaging improve radiotherapy target planning? - Are advanced medical imaging results associated with risk markers found in tumor tissue? Participants will - Undergo four additional imaging procedures, as compared to clinical routine examinations, two at baseline and two after three months. - Be subject to clinical follow-up for five years.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of perioperative dostarlimab compared with standard of care (SOC) in participants with untreated T4N0 or Stage III (resectable), defective mismatch repair/ microsatellite instability high (dMMR/MSI-H) colon cancer.
