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 study evaluates induction therapy with carfilzomib-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone before salvage high-dose melphalan with autologous stem cell support (HDT) in multiple myeloma patients with relapse after HDT done at diagnosis. In addition, the study evaluates the effect of maintenance therapy after salvage HDT in multiple myeloma. After salvage HDT half of the patients receive maintenance therapy with carfilzomib/dexamethasone while the other half are observed without maintenance therapy.
The main objective of this randomized controlled trial is to test the association between standard cardiac risk factors, biomarkers and parameters of echocardiography, electrocardiography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, (predictors) and subsequent occurrence, frequency and severity of clinical or subclinical cardiotoxicity (outcome) within and between-groups, before start of chemotherapy, during treatment and at 1, 5, and 10 years after the completion of the chemotherapy among women with early breast cancer.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate efficacy and toxicity of either the combination of docetaxel, trastuzumab sc and pertuzumab (arm A) or trastuzumab emtansin (arm B). Switch of therapy to the opposite treatment alternative is applicable in case of lack of response after two courses of treatment, or for medical reasons under exceptional circumstances (drug reaction, other medical conditions) at any point. After termination of the primary treatment follow-up for five years. A translational subprotocol is a mandatory part of the study protocol, with exception for the use of PET-CT evaluations.
A national study of a three year cohort consisting of all patients diagnosed with anal cancer in 2011- 2013 with data retrieval from three national registries: Cancer Registry, Patient registry and Cause of Death Registry all within the Swedish Board of Health and Welfare. All out- and inpatient visits with diagnoses, admission dates and discharge dates will be requested including. Patient documentation from the concerned hospitals will be collected and data on the details of the treatment collected retrospectively in a standardised fashion using a clinical record form. Comorbidity will be calculated using data from the Patient Registry using all main and co-diagnoses 2 years prior and then at least two years after treatment cessation. Detailed questionnaires will be sent out once at 2-3 years and a second time at about 6 years after index treatment.
The perineal body is commonly injured during labor. It is possible to perform a secondary repair, a perineorraphy, which aims to reduce the symptomatology after an improperly healed perineal tear. The aim of the randomized trial is to evaluate the results of such an operation compared with conservative treatment.
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, global, Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of durvalumab + tremelimumab combination therapy versus platinum-based SoC chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) wild-type advanced or metastatic NSCLC.
Medtronic is sponsoring the Micra Registry to further confirm safety and effectiveness of the Micra Transcatheter Pacing System (Micra system) when used as intended, in "real-world" clinical practice, following commercial release. The Micra Registry is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Registry.
The purpose of this study is to determine if apalutamide plus gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist in participants with high-risk, localized or locally advanced prostate cancer receiving primary radiation therapy (RT) results in an improvement of metastasis-free survival based on conventional or prostate specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET) imaging evaluated by blinded independent central review (BICR).
All patients presenting at participating hospitals during the recruitment period with a newly diagnosed colon cancer, regardless of stage and planned treatment, will be eligible for inclusion. They will answer a questionnaire on health related quality of life, physical symptoms, functional impairments and socioeconomic status at diagnosis and after 12, 36 months. Clinical data including recurrence, survival, surgical treatment, oncologic result (pathology report) and adjuvant treatment will be collected from the Swedish ColoRectal Cancer Registry (SCRCR)
The objective is to investigate the Clinical, Radiographic, Roentgen Stereophotogrammetric behaviour and patient outcome when using the Triathlon total knee prosthesis in a prospective randomized clinical trial.
