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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of a patient, who has type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who is currently treated with basal/bolus insulin therapy, to use PaQ™ (a simple patch on insulin delivery device) to control his/her blood glucose.
The present study will provide additional efficacy and safety data for 0.5-mg ranibizumab using as needed (PRN) dosing over 24 months in patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO). Spectral domain high-definition optical coherence tomography (OCT) images will be analyzed to gain insights into predictive factors for disease progression and the possibility of reduced monitoring will be assessed in Year 2. The results of this open-label study will provide long-term safety and efficacy data to further guide recommendations on the use of ranibizumab in this indication.
Increased bone formation in the absence of accelerated resorption is resulting in a marked anabolic response to teriparatide (TPTD) during the early phase after treatment initiation. Months later, due to coupling mechanism, the sustained increase of bone formation and ongoing anabolic effects are accompanied by significantly increased bone resorption as well. Antiresorptives influence the balance of bone formation and resorption. Therefore the investigators aim is to investigate the effects of the addition of antiresorptives to the second half of TPTD cycle when resorption is already also markedly elevated.
Studies showed that infusion or injection of drugs and fluids results in introduction of microparticles into the bloodstream. These microparticles may cause organ damage and stimulate the immune system thus aggravating the underlying disease. Given that critically ill patients are characteristically suffering from a high disease severity and receive large amounts of fluids and drugs, they may be at particular risk of harm by these microparticles. In-line microfilters have been shown to clear microparticles from intravenous drugs and solutions. The investigators hypothesize that use of in-line microfilters reduce the days with the systemic inflammatory response syndrome in adult critically ill patients.
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the effect of 6 weeks treatment with tiotropium + olodaterol fixed dose combination inhalation solution on lung hyperinflation and exercise tolerance in patients with COPD.

This global Belimumab Pregnancy Registry will collect prospective data on pregnancies and pregnancy outcomes on a voluntary basis in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who have received commercially supplied belimumab within the 4 months prior to and/or during pregnancy. The registry will also evaluate outcomes of infants born to mothers who were exposed to belimumab within the 4 months prior to and/or during pregnancy. This registry will add to the current clinical experience with belimumab and will complement reproductive data from animal toxicology studies. It will also assist clinicians in weighing the potential risks against the benefits of treatment for individual patients with SLE. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) will sponsor the Belimumab Pregnancy Registry in countries where it holds Marketing Authorization.
The purpose of this clinical study is to compare efficacy and safety of propiverine hydrochloride extended and immediate release formulations in patients suffering from neurogenic detrusor overactivity.
The study assessed the safety and efficacy of the fixed combination product QVA149 versus the component products QAB149 and NVA237, administered concurrently, in patients that have moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
This is a multicentre, open, randomised, and controlled trial conducted in sixty (60) patients diagnosed with refractory or recurrent ascites. Patients will be randomised (enrolled) to either treatment arm A- implanted with the ALFApump System or treatment arm B-standard of care with evacuation large volume paracentesis. The main aims of the study are to determine the paracentesis free survival, defined as the time to the first large volume therapeutic paracentesis > 5 litres. The secondary aims are to assess non-inferiority of cirrhosis-related complications in the group of patients randomized to the ALFApump system group, as well as nutritional effects, resource utilisation, patient quality of life and survival non-inferiority.
