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.
QT interval prolongation and neutropenia are considered to be important identified risks for ribociclib. The approved dosing regimen of ribociclib is 600 mg daily (QD) on a 3 weeks on/1 week off schedule. The purpose of the study is to explore whether a reduced dosing regimen of 400 mg ribociclib orally QD 3 weeks on/1 week off may decrease the risk of QTc prolongation without compromising the efficacy of ribociclib in combination with a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor (NSAI) in pre- and postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR-positive), HER2-negative advanced breast cancer (aBC) who have not received prior therapy for advanced disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) combined with lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) compared to pembrolizumab alone (with placebo for lenvatinib) as first-line treatment in adults with no prior systemic therapy for their advanced melanoma. The primary study hypotheses are that: 1) The combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab and placebo as assessed by Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1), and 2) The combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab and placebo as assessed by Overall Survival (OS). For this study, RECIST 1.1 has been modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ.
This study will look for new biomarkers of infection and evaluate current biomarkers of infection in stroke patients. Patients with acute stroke will be monitored with daily blood samples for seven days and by clinical examination to detect infections for 10 days.
Phase II, single-arm study to assess the safety and efficacy of osimertinib (80 mg, orally, once daily) as first-line therapy in patients with EGFR mutation-positive, locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not previously treated with an epidermal growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitor agent.
Obesity interventions in early childhood are recommended as they have been proven to be more effective than interventions later in life. The overall aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptance of an overweight and obesity intervention in socially disadvantaged families. Participants will be families with children aged 2-6 years (n = 300) with overweight or obesity and will be recruited from three sites: Stockholm, Sweden (n = 100); Timisoara, Romania (n = 100); and Mallorca, Spain (n = 100).
Chimney trial is designed to compare the effectiveness and safety of specifically designated polyvinylidene fluoride mesh (PVDF, Dynamesh IPST) to controls in a multi center, randomized setting.
A randomized controlled trial to evaluate which treatment protocol in selective laser trabeculoplasty that is most optimal in terms of efficacy and safety.
This is a randomised controlled multi-centre trial comparing the effect of diet supplementation of a human breast milk-based nutrient fortifier (H2MF®) with standard bovine protein-based nutrient fortifier in 222 extremely preterm infants (born before gestational week 28+0) exclusively fed with human breast milk (own mother´s milk and/or donor milk). The infants will be randomised to receive either the human breast-milk based H2MF® or the standard bovine protein-based nutrient fortifier when oral feeds have reached <100 ml/kg/day. The randomised intervention, stratified by centre, will continue until the target gestational week 34+0. The infant must not be fed with formula during the intervention period. The allocation will be concealed before inclusion, but after randomisation the study is not blinded. Primary endpoint of the intervention is the composite variable necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), sepsis and mortality. The enrolled infants are characterised with clinical data including growth, feeding intolerance, use of enteral and parenteral nutrition, treatment, antibiotics and complications collected daily in a study specific case report form from birth until discharge from the hospital (not longer than gestational week 44+0). A follow up focusing on neurological development, growth and feeding problems will be performed at 2 years of age (corrected) and 5.5 years of age.
In autoimmune adrenal insufficiency, or Addison's disease (AD), the immune system attacks the adrenal cortex. As a result, the adrenal cells producing hormones such as cortisol and aldosterone are destroyed, leaving the body with insufficient levels to meet its needs. The common perception is that upon diagnosis of Addison's disease, basically all adrenal hormone production has ceased. There have, however, been found a few individuals who preserve some residual secretion of cortisol even years after diagnosis. The objectives of this study is to find out how common it is, and to explore if residual function have impact on patient outcome. That is, do patients with and without residual function differ when it comes to quality of life, working ability, medication dosages, and risk of adrenal crisis?
In this clinical trial, patients with gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma will be included. Treatment with curative intent will be given with chemotherapy for 4 cycles with fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and irinotecan preoperatively followed by surgery, and then additionally 4 cycles of the same chemotherapy postoperatively. The standard treatment today is preoperative treatment with fluorouracil and oxaliplatin pre-and postoperatively. The rationale for this trial is, that the addition of irinotecan might improve treatments results.
