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.
To investigate the efficacy and safety of BIBW 2992 in combination with vinorelbine i.v. chemotherapy as treatment in patients with HER2-overexpressing, metastatic breast cancer, who failed one prior trastuzumab (Herceptin®) treatment
The accurate detection and therapy of adenocarcinoma originating from Barrett's oesophagus is challenging as current endoscopic techniques are unreliable for both the detection of high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) within Barrett's mucosa and the correct measurement of the dimension of such neoplastic lesions. Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) is a promising technology that could help to close this gap. Relying on first clinical trials of CLE, which showed remarkable results for the detection of Barrett's associated neoplasia, the investigators want to use CLE as targeting tool for endoscopic mucosal resection of HGIN in patients suffering from Barrett's oesophagus. CLE-mapping of neoplastic lesions will be documented and compared to the later performed histological evaluation of the resected specimen. If CLE is passing our challenge this will be another valuable proof of its high potential as reliable new endoscopic technology. Its usage could increase the en-bloc resection rate and decrease the amount of repetitive resections, which would remarkably improve the patients comfort.
This study is designed as a phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to explore the effect of maintenance therapy with lenalidomide versus placebo on progression-free survival (PFS) in patients treated with R-CHOP responding to induction therapy For the primary efficacy variable, PFS, an improvement in median PFS from 38.6 months for Treatment Arm B to 54 months for Treatment Arm A (corresponding to a 2-year PFS of 65% vs 73.6%), is considered clinically relevant.
Subjects with intra-abdominal infection requiring surgery and Intensive Care Unit stay will be treated early with micafungin or placebo to determine the incidence and time to confirmation of fungal infection.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of a strategy with insulin glargine in comparison with a strategy including the premixed insulin in term of percentage of patients reaching HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin) below 7% at the end of treatment and who do not experience documented symptomatic hypoglycemia (confirmed by a Plasma Glucose (PG) below 56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L)) over a 24-week treatment period, in Type 2 diabetes patients failing lifestyle management and oral agents. Secondary Objectives: To assess the effect of insulin glargine in comparison with premixed insulin on : - Evolution of HbA1c level during the treatment period Percentage of patients who reach the target of HbA1c < 7 % and who do not experience documented symptomatic hypoglycemia confirmed by a Plasma Glucose (PG) below 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) - Percentage of patients who reach the target of HbA1c < 6.5% and who do not experience documented symptomatic hypoglycemia confirmed by a PG below 56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L) >Percentage of patients who reach the target of HbA1c < 6.5% and who do not experience documented symptomatic hypoglycemia confirmed by a PG below 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) >Evolution of Fasting Plasma Glucose Evolution of 7-point plasma glucose profiles - Evolution of weight - Hypoglycemia occurrence - Dose of insulins - Evolution of liver function - Overall safety
Ther purpose of this study is to show equivalence with regard to the number of oocytes retrieved between AFOLIA and Gonal-f® in women for assisted reproductive treatment
MONITOR-CKD5 is an observational, pharmaco-epidemiological study to evaluate the multi-level factors and outcomes associated with the treatment of renal anaemia with biosimilar epoetin alfa in Stage 5 CKD patients requiring haemodialysis.
This study is designed to assess the effect of once-daily QVA149 on COPD exacerbations in patients with severe to very severe COPD.
The purpose of this pivotal study is to demonstrate safety and efficacy of transcranial laser therapy (TLT) with the NeuroThera® Laser System in the treatment of subjects diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke. The initiation of the TLT procedure must be feasible for each subject between 4.5 and 24 hours of stroke onset.
This randomized, 3-arm, multicenter, phase III study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) with pertuzumab or trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) with pertuzumab-placebo (blinded for pertuzumab), versus the combination of trastuzumab (Herceptin) plus taxane (docetaxel or paclitaxel) in participants with HER2-positive progressive or recurrent locally advanced or previously untreated metastatic breast cancer. Participants will be randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms (Arms A, B or C). Arm A will be open-label, whereas Arms B and C will be blinded.
