There are about 6915 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Austria. 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 proposed study will investigate whether, on the basis of personality traits and personality disorders as well as specific cerebral activation patterns shows differences in adolescent female with anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN) and a healthy control group.
The purpose of this European, multicentric, prospective, non-interventional study is to document and evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment of severely infected patients with intravenously administered fosfomycin, including patients with osteomyelitis, complicated urinary tract infection, nosocomial lower respiratory tract infection, bacterial meningitis/central nervous system infection, bacteraemia/sepsis, skin and soft tissue infection, endocarditis or other infections, each as far as covered by the respective nationally relevant SmPC.
The purpose of this study is to update the EORTC QLQ Breast (BR)-23 Module. Since the development of BR-23 published 1996 the standard therapy of breast cancer has changed. New therapies brought new side effects and different impact on QoL (quality of life) are not sufficiently covered by EORTC QLQ BR-23 and an update of the module could be useful, both from clinical and scientific point of view.
Rationale: Haemophilia is a rare disease; to improve knowledge international collaboration is needed. Well-defined clinical data will be collected from complete cohorts in order to prevent selection bias. Objective: To collect data on bleeding during neonatal period, endogenous (genetic) and exogenous (treatment-related) determinants of inhibitor development and long term outcome.
Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer diagnosed among men and the second leading cause of male cancer deaths in the United States. In 2013, it is estimated that 29,270 men have died from prostate cancer. Although radiation and surgery are quite effective for localized disease, there is no effective cure for men who present with metastatic prostate cancer as the 5-year relative survival rate is only 28%. Currently, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) via medical or surgical castration is the standard first-line therapy in men with metastatic disease but castration-recurrent prostate cancer (CRPC) eventually emerges with a median time of 18-24 months. Once CRPC develops, secondary hormonal manipulation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy are marginally effective. Given the dismal prognosis of metastatic prostate cancer, new ideas and novel approaches must be explored to improve the clinical outcome. In this regard, recently emerging data suggest that local tumor control may enhance the effectiveness of subsequent systemic therapies. Therefore, in this proposal, the investigators have designed a Phase I/II study in which they will prospectively evaluate the safety and feasibility of cytoreductive prostatectomy in men with newly diagnosed mPCa.
Smoking is one of the world's leading health hazards. Besides being a major risk factor in the etiology of COPD and lung cancer, cigarette smoke is also a causative agent lung diseases characterized by bronchiolar and interstitial inflammation. However, the associated lung pathology of smoking is not only a risk in the development of lung diseases, but also widely recognized as a major risk factor associated with perioperative respiratory and cardiovascular complications. Apart from the long term effects of cigarette smoke, acute effects of the inhalation of cigarettes smoke may influence the course of lung pathology. The inhalation of smoke causes inflammation in the lung by inducing chemotaxis and activation of neutrophils and macrophages and induces oxidative stress. As the acute inflammatory response to smoke inhalation seems to be the underlying mechanism for chronic diseases of smokers, exploring the field of the acute pulmonary changes after exposure to cigarette smoke is highly relevant. One reason for acute hypoxia and injury during smoking might be a severe mismatch of ventilation and perfusion of the lung. Using the multiple inert gas elimination technique (MIGET), a distribution of ventilation-perfusion ratios in the lung can be calculated by analyzing data on the retention and excretion of six infused inert gases. A saline solution containing the gases is infused intravenously. When passing through the lung the gases are either eliminated from the blood or retained depending on their partition coefficient and local V/Q ratio. The concentrations of the gases are measured in the mixed venous blood or the mixed expired gas and the arterial blood allowing for the calculation of retention and excretion and the derivation of V/Q distribution. MIGET is the experimental gold standard to determine the Ventilation-Perfusion ratio of the lung. The aim of this study is to show the acute effect of smoking on ventilation/perfusion ratio distribution in the lung in otherwise healthy smokers.
The purpose of this study is to collect long term safety data in subjects who are continuing to derive clinical benefit from treatment with Enzalutamide from the subjects participation in an enzalutamide clinical study sponsored by Astellas or Medivation (i.e., parent study) which has completed, at a minimum, the primary analysis or the study specified evaluation period.
The main aim of the study is to check effectiveness, side effects, and tolerability of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (rVWF), with or without ADVATE, in the treatment and control of nonsurgical bleeding events in pediatric participants (less than (<)18 years of age) with severe hereditary von Willebrand disease (VWD). The participants will be treated with rVWF for 12-18 months. Their von Willebrand Disease will be treated by their doctor according to their doctor's usual clinical practice. During the study, participants will be followed up at clinics or over telephone calls.
This is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled, parallel Phase 3 study with an open-label single-arm extension period to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and efficacy of macitentan in children with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
This study aims to understand the state of onset of NLSD(neutral lipid storage disease) / TGCV(triglyceride deposit cardiovasculopathy) worldwide, background information of affected patients, and natural history of the disease, as well as exploring the prognostic factors and assessing the efficacy of disease-specific treatment.
