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 designed to enroll postmenopausal patients with locally advanced or metastatic, HER2- and HR+ breast cancer not amenable to curative treatment by surgery or radiotherapy, and whose disease has progressed on or after prior endocrine therapy. Patients must undergo molecular pre-screening prior to entry.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the initiation of a vildagliptin plus metformin combination regimen would result in more durable glycemic control than metformin monotherapy in treatment-naïve patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether the hepatitis C virus continues to remain unable to be detected in subjects who were previously treated with BMS-914143 and achieved sustained virologic response
This Post Marketing Surveillance study will be performed as an open-label, prospective, non-interventional, uncontrolled study in Human immunodeficit Virus-1 (HIV-1) infected patients. Data will only be documented in patients for whom a pharmacotherapy with nevirapine extended release is initiated. Both anti-retroviral therapy (ART) naïve patients and pre-treated patients switching from nevirapine immediate release or other anti-retroviral therapy (ART) will be included in the study. The decision to initiate treatment with nevirapine extended release is independent of this study and is based entirely on individual patient need and the judgement of the treating physician. The aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy and treatment adherence of nevirapine extended release in HIV-1 infected patients in routine clinical practice. It is planned to document five visits for each patient over a twenty four week observational period.
The purpose of this study is to compare the antitumor activity of everolimus plus best supportive care versus placebo plus best supportive care in patients with progressive nonfunctional neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of gastrointestinal (GI) or lung origin without a history of, or current symptoms of carcinoid syndrome.
The objective of this study is to determine whether preoperative parenteral thiamin supplementation does prevent the intra and early postoperative increase of lactate and whether this effect is related to the extent of thiamine deficiency in patients undergoing heart surgery. In addition the prevalence of major thiamin deficiency in patient undergoing heart surgery will be determined.
Aim of the study is to demonstrate superiority of a continuous cooling of the skin over topical EMLA or placebo in reducing the burning pain during the application of capsaicin 8% patch ("Qutenza"). Secondary it will be tested, if the 2 different pre-treatments have an effect on the application pain within the first 24 hours, and if different pre-treatments have an effect on the reduction of the epidermal nerve fiber density (ENFD) 1 week after Qutenza application.
This randomised, open-label phase III trial will be performed in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the lung requiring second-line treatment after receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of BIBW 2992 to erlotinib as second-line treatment in this group of patients.
Intramuscular application of botulinum toxin (BoNT) is used as a successful therapy of muscle spasticity. Clinical practice shows, that even with the use of special guidance techniques to increase accuracy of targeting, BoNT may spread to adjacent sites by diffusion. This causes fluctuating treatment response, unintended side effects, and decrease of effect due to production of antibodies. Hence, clinicians require increase of efficacy and safety by dose reduction, improvement of injection technique, and additional treatment strategies. Referring to this, animal model showed increased efficacy and decreased systemic side effects of BoNT in the injected muscle after active or passive manipulation of muscle. The mechanism of this effect remain unclear. T2 and (Diffusion Tensor Imaging) DTI technique can evaluate the in-vivo distribution of fluids in human skeletal muscle. In addition, it allows to differentiate denervated muscle tissue, caused by BoNT injections, from surrounding unaffected muscle tissue. Up to the investigators knowledge, neither a human, in vivo measurement of the influence of passive muscle activity on the area of denervation, nor the primary, in-vivo distribution of BoNT within spastic human muscle tissue, been evaluated. The aim of this explorative study is: - to monitor the inflow and regional distribution of the injection bolus by dynamic T2-weighted-, DTI-sequences; - to assess the effect of passive muscle exercise on the area of denervated, caused by BoNT, measured by DTI-, T2-weighted and flair sequences. The investigators hypothesize, that - intramuscular denervation area, measured by DTI-, T2-weighted and Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) sequences, 3 weeks after routine BoNT injection, is facilitated by passive muscle exercise; - primary distribution of the injected BoNT bolus can be non-invasively monitored by dynamic T2-, DTI- and T2 weighted sequences. Therefore, in this investigator blinded, cross-over study, 6 patients suffering from upper limb spasticity, including musculus biceps brachii, will be investigated. (Magnetic Resonance Tomography) MRI of the musculus biceps brachii will be performed at two consecutive, routine BoNT-injection days (baseline and week 16). Patients receive dosage as clinically indicated, due to routine treatment. Patients will be randomised to receive thirty minutes of physiotherapy of the affected arm, including exercise of the elbow flexors, at one of the injection days (baseline, or week 16, respectively). In addition, MRI will be repeated 3 weeks after injection.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy of once daily dose of SAR302503 in subjects previously treated with ruxolitinib and with a current diagnosis of intermediate-1 with symptoms, Intermediate-2 or high-risk primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (Post-PV MF), or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (Post-ET MF) based on the reduction of spleen volume at the end of 6 treatment cycles; Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of SAR302503 on Myelofibrosis (MF) associated symptoms as measured by the modified Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form (MFSAF) diary - To evaluate the durability of splenic response - To evaluate the splenic response to SAR302503 by palpation at the end of Cycle 6 - To evaluate the splenic response to SAR302503 at the end of Cycle 3 - To evaluate the effect of SAR302503 on the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) V617F allele burden - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of SAR302503 in this population - To evaluate plasma concentrations of SAR302503 for population PK analysis, if warranted
