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 the study is to verify the immunogenicity and tolerance of a trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine with strain composition according to WHO/EU recommendation for the 2010/2011 season for yearly licensing application.
This is a multicentre, Phase III, efficacy and safety open-label study with PGL4001 10mg once daily for 3 months, blinded towards the administration of progestin or placebo after end of PGL4001 treatment.
This study will evaluate the anti-cancer effects of crizotinib when compared with standard chemotherapy in patients with ALK positive lung cancer.
This is a single cohort observational safety study. All patients will be treated and monitored according to the local clinical practice. No additional procedures/patient visits in comparison with the usual clinical practice are planned for the study. Data will be collected from centre's medical records for up to 5 years or death.
Rationale for the current trial is to demonstrate 24 hour bronchodilator efficacy and safety of tiotropium 5 µg administered once daily (in the evening) which is regarded beneficial for the compliance and convenience of the patient in comparison to placebo. Further the rationale is to evaluate efficacy and safety of tiotropium 2.5 µg administered twice daily delivered by the Respimat® inhaler in comparison to placebo and tiotropium 5 µg administered once daily (in the evening) delivered by the Respimat® inhaler in patients with moderate persistent asthma. Rationale for the pharmacokinetic subinvestigation is to evaluate the 24 hours exposure to tiotropium in patients with moderate persistent asthma when administered 5 µg tiotropium once daily (in the evening) or 2.5 µg tiotropium twice daily.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effect of tadalafil 5 milligrams (mg) daily for 8 weeks compared to placebo on prostatic blood perfusion in men with signs and symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), measured by resistive index (RI) in the prostate transition zone.
This study was a Phase II, single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to determine whether anti-vWF Nanobody is safe and effective as adjunctive treatment in patients with aTTP. Patients received either placebo or anti-vWF Nanobody as adjunctive therapy to plasma exchange (PE).
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is number four of the leading causes of death in the USA and Europe. Moreover, among the top five causes of death, this disease is the only one with increasing mortality rates. Physical training has become an evidence based therapeutic intervention in these patients. In this study the investigators aim to establish if supplemental oxygen during strength and endurance training improves exercise tolerance. Furthermore, the investigators want to research, if supplemental oxygen has the ability to increase training intensity, which would lead to a greater training effect with respect to respiratory, vascular, inflammatory and anthropometric parameters, as well as quality of life. SCOPE is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, controlled, cross-over trial. The investigators aim to enroll 40 patients suffering from COPD aged >30 years. Inclusion criteria are FEV1 30-60%, and PO2 at rest >55 mmHg. At baseline, patients will undergo pre-tests including pulmonary, exercise physiological and medical investigations. Prior to the exercise training, an intervention-free control period with usual care is planned. This will be followed by 2 x 6 weeks with physical training (ergometer based endurance training and strength training, using weight lifting machines) with either supplemental oxygen or usual room air (e.g.: first 6 weeks of exercise with oxygen supplementation followed by 6 weeks of room air). After the initial control period and between these two exercise periods, patients will be tested as described in pre-tests, and at the end of the second exercise training period. In addition, the investigators will assess changes in lung function and symptomatic dyspnoea, as well as in quality of life (St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire). Within this study, the investigators hope to improve rehabilitation programs for COPD patients.
This is an international, randomized, controlled, parallel group study in which patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) will be allocated to one of the following: Manual aspiration thrombectomy with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) or PCI alone.
The goal of the PROMUS™ Element™ Everolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System European Post- Approval Surveillance Study is to evaluate real world clinical outcomes data for the PROMUS™ Element™ Coronary Stent System in unselected patients in routine clinical practice.
