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.
This trial is conducted in Africa, Europe and the United States of America (USA). The aim of the trial is to compare the difference in change in glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) between insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) and/or oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs) and insulin degludec (IDeg) plus insulin aspart (IAsp)and/or OADs.
This study is comparing the efficacy and tolerability of Qutenza with that of pregabalin in patients suffering from peripheral neuropathic pain. Treatment allocation will be to one of these treatments and the duration of the study will be about 10 weeks (assuming that from screening to treatment allocation takes 2 weeks). Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires about various aspects relating to their condition throughout the study. This study will include subjects suffering from Postherpetic Neuralgia, Peripheral Nerve Injury or Non Diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy and to generate PK and biomarker data for the combination of pomalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone in patients with refractory or relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. The study consists of a Screening phase within 28 days prior to cycle 1 day 1, a Treatment phase and a Follow-up phase which starts within 28 days of discontinuation from study treatment, every 3 months for up to 5 years. In addition, the collection of steady-state PK data from a large population will enable robust population PK and assess Pomalidomide exposure response analyses. The exploratory objectives of the study are to investigate potential markers predictive of POM response or resistance and pharmacodynamic markers.
Background and Objectives: All modern surgical procedures require a high level of cognitive and psychomotor skills achieved using different training methods, but could be influenced by fatigue and other psychological factors. We evaluate the effect of warm-up exercises on operative laparoscopic performances in gynecologic laparoscopic procedures. Methods: The surgical team operates on a consecutive series of 20 patients and perform laparoscopic salpingo-oophorectomy. Patients are randomly allocated in 2 groups: group A to be operated on without warm-up exercises and group B to be operated on after a short-term warm-up. All patients are operated on by the same surgical team. The full-time records of the operation were analyzed by 2 independent reviewers. Laparoscopic procedures are recorded and assessed by 2 independent observers using the generic OSATS rating scale. A training module using the Lap Sim simulator was designed for the warm-up.
Carriers of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) often have no severe symptoms of the scelet muscles, but they may develop a poor heart function due to the involvement of the heart muscle. Ultrasound of the heart is recommended, but it can detect a cardiac affection only after the heart has already become weaker. Cardiac magnetic resonance tomography can detect myocardial fibrosis already at preserved heart function and may facilitate early therapy. In our study, diagnosed carriers of DMD will undergo examinations of the heart by blood tests, EKG, heart ultrasound and magnetic resonance at enrollment and after one year in order to assess the extent of cardiac affection and its association with the clinical development.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether baricitinib therapy alone is noninferior to methotrexate (MTX) therapy alone in the treatment of moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in those who have had limited or no treatment with MTX and are naive to other conventional or biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
Over the last years, a number of systems for continuous subcutaneous glucose monitoring have been marketed and are routinely used in patients with diabetes to obtain more detailed information about 24-hour glucose profiles. In the hospital, numerous factors influencing glycemic control and possibly leading to glucose excursions out of the desired range exist, e.g. interventions for which the patient has to remain fasting or medications such as corticosteroids or vasopressors. A reliable continuous glucose signal could help to observe levels of glycaemia not only at defined time-points but continuously, making it possible for physicians and nursing staff to better adjust antihyperglycemic therapy and to react before the patient is exposed to severe hypo- or hyperglycaemia. In the hospital setting, vascular access is granted in the majority of patients and could as well be used as an alternative site for continuous glucose monitoring. The aim of the present study is to assess accuracy of the glucose data obtained by means of an intravascular microdialysis-based CGM system against venous blood glucose reference measurements.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate that sarilumab added to disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) is effective for: - reduction of signs and symptoms at Week 24 and - improvement of physical function at Week 12 in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who are inadequate responders or intolerant to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) antagonists. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of SAR153191 (REGN88) when added to DMARD therapy, in patients with active RA who are inadequate responders or intolerant to TNF-α antagonists, for: - Reduction of signs and symptoms at 12 weeks. - Improvement in physical function at Week 24. - Improvement in disease activity score as measured by other American College of Rheumatology derived components at Weeks 12 and 24. - Improvement in quality of life as measured by patient reported outcomes (PROs) at intermediate visits and Week 24. To assess the safety of sarilumab in this population. To assess the exposure of sarilumab added to DMARD therapy in this population.
This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group, multi-national, multi-center study to compare alirocumab (REGN727/SAR236553) versus ezetimibe in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia and moderate, high, or very high CV risk, who are intolerant to statins. An atorvastatin arm is added to determine that the population selected in the study is a truly statin intolerant population by assessing skeletal muscle-related adverse events.
The primary purpose of participation in this study is to answer whether teriparatide is superior to risedronate in reducing the occurrence of new vertebral fractures during 24 months of therapy.
