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.
In children and adolescents with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) stem cell transplantation (SCT) may be a valid alternative to the life-long treatment with tyrosinkinase inhibitors (TKI). This trial aims to evaluate the use of a reduced intensity conditioning regimen (RIC), consisting of fludarabine, melphalan and thiotepa in order to minimize transplant related mortality and toxic late effects. Strict post-transplant monitoring and reintroduction of TKI as well as donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) in case of relevant residual disease are part of the protocol.
The study objective of Period 1 of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy (signs and symptoms) of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) alone and upadacitinib 15 mg QD alone versus continuing MTX alone adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with an inadequate response to MTX. The study objective of Period 2 is to evaluate the long term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg QD and 15 mg QD in adults with RA who had completed Period 1.
The study objective of Period 1 (Day 1 to Week 24) is to compare the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib 30 mg once daily (QD) and 15 mg QD versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of participants with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are on a stable dose of csDMARDs and had an inadequate response to or intolerance to at least 1 bDMARD. The study objective of Period 2 (Week 24 to Week 260) is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of upadacitinib 15 mg QD and 30 mg QD in participants with RA who completed Period 1.
In this study we want to evaluate the effect of mannitol on postoperative renal biomarkers in patient receiving cadaveric renal transplantation. Furthermore we want to evaluate the effect of mannitol on perioperative redox status in patients receiving renal transplantation using the oxidation-reduction potentials assessed with the RedoxSYS®system. We are planning to perform a double-blind randomized controlled trial. In the study, mannitol 20% with a dose of 1g / kg / BW (5 ml / kg / BW) will be compared to placebo with NaCl 0.9% in the dose of 5 ml / kg / BW. Patients will be randomized to receive either the mannitol or NaCl. The follow-up of the study is 24 hours. The following biomarkers will be determined befor induction of anesthesia and 24 hours after administration of study medication: CCL2, CHI3LI, GH, HGF, MMP1, MMP8, Tie2, TNF-R1, VCAM-1, KIM-1, Cystatin C, FGF23, IGFB7, NGAL and IL 18. Furthermore we want to perform sORP and cORP before induction of anesthesia, just before bolus of mannitol, 5 min after bolus of mannitol and after operation in anesthetic recovery room. Data will be collected, compared and published at the end of the study. It is planned to include a total of 34 patients in the study.
In this multi-centre prospective randomized controlled trial the efficacy of segmental acupuncture in the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infections will be assessed. The study (acupuncture) group will receive 12 acupuncture treatments according to a standardized protocol, plus recommendation for use of cranberry products. The control group will receive recommendation for use of cranberry products only.
The beneficial analgesic effects of Rubefacenciae (redden skin substances), is known since 1830 as a treatment for pain, cramps, and disorders of the musculoskeletal system. Herbal cataplasms containing rubefacient substances, such as Cayenne pepper, are commonly used as natural medications to treat painful or aching areas in the case of acute or chronic back pain, and rheumatisms. In Vienna and lower Austria, a Cayenne Pepper Cataplasm (CPC) application containing Cayenne pepper and Kaolin powder in mixed proportion, is commonly used to treat musculoskeletal conditions of pain especially of the low back. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to test effects of a series of ten applications of CPC prepared with 5% of pepper, investigating the resulting effect on: skin temperature, skin sensory functions, pain threshold, and proprioception. Placebo control condition (0% cayenne pepper) was also tested. It was hypothesized that a series of 20-minute application of a CPC will have significant effects on the measured parameters. 40 subjects will be randomized into Treatment/control group.
The purpose of this Study is to determine whether non-invasive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is effective in increasing rehabilitation effects after stroke in visual Cortex.
This single arm, post-authorisation study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety of pirfenidone in participants with IPF. The enrolment of participants will be completed within approximately 24 months. Participants will receive pirfenidone according to the physician discretion and will be followed for 2 years. Treating physicians will collect pre-specified data at the baseline and every 3 months thereafter, for the duration of the participants' participation in study.
Clinical trial looking to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MEDI3902 in mechanically ventilated participants for the prevention of nosocomial pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of secukinumab compared to placebo in patients with nr-axSpA at Week 16 as well as Week 52 and long term efficacy and safety up to Week 104 (core phase) followed by an optional extension phase consisting of a 16-week randomized dose escalation treatment period and a continuous treatment period for up to Week 208
